Malicious people succeed at manipulating a uniformed and misinformed public because they have *intentionally created* a society in which education and information is a privilege. Even as a TRAINED PROFESSIONAL FACT CHECKER I can struggle to find accurate information. It is not easy!!!

messing around with building a little audio generator DSL: c.lexg.dev/audio?name=0...
ruby code:

AudioRack.new do
  pulse(
    frequency: pulse(frequency: 200, **with_range(450..550)),
    amplitude: pulse(frequency: 1, **with_range(0..(-6.dB)))
  )
end.run(length: 4)
