This seems fascinating yet insane, and the more you dig around the page, the more insane it looks. Some more context would be great.


Author of the research article here. https://www.404media.co/the-cia-secretly-ran-a-star-wars-fan... published today which kicked off this thread has a good summary, but let me know if anything is unclear.


I half wish you could've been more succint. I'm about 5% through according to my scrollbar, but citating every single thing you found on the topic makes for very tedious reading...


It is hard to balance both aspects. I tried to summarize more interesting things on initial sections and from "Methodology" downwards it is definitely not for casual reading. Also huge images and table, so don't be afraid of the bar.


Is this where we are intellectually? Complaining about too much proof and rigor? Just run it through chatGPT or something and ask it to read it for you


Hi, BTW

I wanted to ask you, do you know the RSS feed link for ourbigbook.com ?


Ah, I didn't implement RSS unfortunately. What you can do now is if you follow a user when they announce an article (there's an announce button), you get an email with a link. I suppose it could be modified to also put announced articles in an RSS feed. I never did much RSS for whatever reason. PRs open :-)
