  • Topics: scientific research science
  • Summary: «The reasons for this distrust are many: fraud [...]; thousands of retracted papers (most justified, some not); massive failure to replicate studies; and weak experimental and analytic methods. Not to mention the authoritarian failure of the medical-science establishment over the Covid epidemic.» ... «Among the causes of these problems are bad incentives on campus and elsewhere, a system that encourages careerism over love of knowledge, and epistemologically irrelevant race-and-sex policies (aka DEI). Another problem, however, is how basic science is funded.»
