" Scientists Just Detected a Colossal Gamma-Ray Burst, And It's a Record-Breaker"

Git over yo bad self. Gamma rays were only discovered 122 years ago, so just how monumentous is that record anyway?

This sounds like the clowns whining about the hole in the ozone layer. No one has any idea how common holes in the ozone were before we developed the technology to test for it.

They're all drowning in recency bias.

You do not want to be in the way of a gamma-ray burst. Most all living things on the entire planet would die right away. Zap!
