Noise

Most News is Noise

I find most sources of information these days (since several years) to be too noisy compared to the actual signals of wisdom you expect from a popular source. Rarely, I’ll pull up the news application on my phone and consume a whole bunch of generic, and some domain specific news. Other than state of the art research in a technical domain, which is based upon a corpora of established citations, most other “new” stuff is noise.
