    A That Mitchell and Webb Look sketch in which a hospital A&E is staffed by homeopaths who dilute everything, leaving patients with nothing.

    Used as a punchline in threads about snake oil, bogus tests and startup fraud, rather than recommended as such.

      In the sense of extreme understatement , yes, which is amusing since the "heavy lifting" is the other way around. Much like "The snake-oil suspicions looming over colored quartz and homeopathic water." [0] [0] this video

      Oh right. I didn't get it. I thought tech homeopathy was some new framework / library / approach I hadn't heard about. Maybe homeopathy.js or similar? On the plus side, your comment did make me re-watch this: this video
