Science Isnāt Broken
If you follow the headlines, your confidence in science may have taken a hit lately. Peer review? More like self-review. An investigation in November uncovered a scam in which researchers were rubber-stamping their own work, circumventing peer review at five high-profile publishers.fivethirtyeight.com
The replication crisis shows science is checking and validating itself.
No other movement puts itself under this kind of scrutiny and self criticism. There is always going to be a Schƶn at some point, but they get uncovered eventually.

Yeah of course it's a problem. While it seems to be mostly confined to the social sciences I'm not going to pretend it's not a problem elsewhere.Well, Wikipedia says it's an ongoing crisis. Since Wikipedia isn't far right I suppose you accept it as a credible source.
'The replication crisis (also called the replicability crisis and the reproducibility crisis) is an ongoing methodological crisis in which the results of many scientific studies are difficult or impossible to reproduce. Because the reproducibility of empirical results is an essential part of the scientific method,[2] such failures undermine the credibility of theories building on them and potentially call into question substantial parts of scientific knowledge.
The replication crisis is frequently discussed in relation to psychology and medicine, where considerable efforts have been undertaken to reinvestigate classic results, to determine whether they are reliable, and if they turn out not to be, the reasons for the failure.[3][4] Data strongly indicates that other natural and social sciences are affected as well.[5]
The phrase replication crisis was coined in the early 2010s[6] as part of a growing awareness of the problem. Considerations of causes and remedies have given rise to a new scientific discipline, metascience,[7] which uses methods of empirical research to examine empirical research practice.
Considerations about reproducibility fall into two categories. Reproducibility in the narrow sense refers to re-examining and validating the analysis of a given set of data. Replication refers to repeating the experiment or study to obtain new, independent data with the goal of reaching the same or similar conclusions.'

From your link:
'P-hacking is generally thought of as cheating, but what if we made it compulsory instead? If the purpose of studies is to push the frontiers of knowledge, then perhaps playing around with different methods shouldnāt be thought of as a dirty trick, but encouraged as a way of exploring boundaries.'

Going Off-Topic on a Climate thread.What's the problem exactly though?
Whatever that means?The replication crisis shows science is checking and validating itself.

Take it up with @tldrGoing Off-Topic on a Climate thread.
Yeah of course it's a problem. While it seems to be mostly confined to the social sciences I'm not going to pretend it's not a problem elsewhere.
But that's the point in a way....the scientific process has helped to shed light on this.
There is additional self correcting aspects - anything that has potential commercial applications will have an attempt at replication. Hence the comments on the video about cancer research.
The problem is that there really is nowhere enough money going into research, so they really only get one shot to run their research or experiment once.(I have a cousin who is a PhD researcher now in Australia, and she struggles with cost of living. She should have gone into investment banking).
If its interesting they publish. And why not? If its really interesting someone will attempt to replicate. If the result can't be replicated, that's the end of the road.
There's a definite distinction then between the soft and hard sciences. Hard science is really something that can be monetised and comes with risk, it's going to get checked at some point. Cos someone WILL pay if its badly wrong. And yes, sometimes it does.
The scientific method is nothing more than to try to put some fail safes around the fact we are human, with bias, limited resources, massive egos and prone to group think. It's value is always evident in the medium to long term.
It's not cheating, it's "exploration".
Climate science can be monetised through government grants, subsidies, retooling mandates and confiscations. Bet there's a lot of regret for the whole COVID thing now - lifted the lid really.

There's fuck all money in it compared to other sectors and industries and certainly no "killer app" analogue to hope for in this space. People forget this. It's not the bogeyman you are looking for.Climate science can be monetised through government grants, subsidies, retooling mandates and confiscations.

Covid could have been a hell of a lot worse. When lockdowns started, no one knew about long covid.
You obviously think differently. But it can't change the facts as I see them. We really could have fucked this up massively, now we know how covid damages the body. And we are going to have to live with it anyway, forever.
Is that the cousin who fecked about in the kitchen sink to prove that the covid tests were somehow valid? No wonder nobody wants to pay her for her crap science.Yeah of course it's a problem.

Tank loves all this kind of stuff.'The NIH also approved funding for researchers to study the sleep habits of monkeys who were given meth in the morning, according to the report.
Another monkey example involved a study focusing on trans-identifying men and HIV. The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) spent more than $477,000 on the study, which gave male monkeys female hormones to examine how cross-sex hormones might affect the immune systems of trans-identifying men when it comes to HIV.
In another outlandish example, the NIH approved a grant to study Russian cats walking on a treadmill, the report said.'
Barbie Fraud, Meth Monkeys: Rand Paulās Annual āFestivus Reportā Shows $900 Billion In Government Waste - The Daily Wire
The idiots should read these articles !The 'Climate Change' scam is the new current thing for retarded and brainwashed idiots to get excited about.
It follows on from lockdowns, BLM, experimental vaccines, war in Ukraine, war in Gaza etc etc etc.
Whatever is trending on Twatter will be what retarded and brainwashed idiots will be pontificating about.
Funny as fuck when ya take a step back and see the macro view of things but idiots like that are incapable of doing such a thing.
The suggestion that the whole climate change theory is based on a flawed interpretation of 19th century science pulls the rug from right underneath this whole global warming religion and I am a little surprised that it is not pointed to more regularly in the non MSM.The idiots should read these articles !
