    See, replication isn’t a problem if your entire field is vibes-based. A lot of economics papers I come across are like that (so much so that I am close to writing off the entire decipline as unscientific). The diff in the level of rigour you would see in e.g. particle physics versus in economics is baffling.

    It used to be psychology as well but I am noticing they are more than aware of their replication crisis lately. Whereas economics feels pseudoscience with a maths clothing.






  • Laughing at Trump has gotten old for me. He has bottomed out the level of idiocy so much that it’s just not funny anymore, almost like real-life flanderisation. If anything, it brings me sadness thinking how half of america is somehow more stupid than this guy.

    If this community is going to be just a list of stupid shit Trump is going to say until the elections, I am not sure if I want it in my face every day, especially as a non-american. It must be possible for me to block posts based on words

    Edit: At least on Eternity there is such a filter! I shall see nothing about this arsehole anymore

    Reputation comes from public, it requires collective action and coordination. Collective action is not easy, but it is not as hard it might seem either. For example, many open source projects in software are highly reputable without a private ownership.
