But how does he know "their null hypotheses are always true"? He seems to take it as a given. Why? Edit: is it just me or did they boot this off the front page

But how does he know "their null hypotheses are always true"? He seems to take it as a given. Why?
Edit: is it just me or did they boot this off the front page manually?
- thomyorkie 11y agoYeah, it appears they did remove it from the front page manually.
- dang 11y agoWho is "they" and what is "manually"? This post declined in rank because users flagged it.
- thomyorkie 11y agoIt seems to me that flagging a submission should result in an admin review, not in an automatic reduction in the submission's points.
- cryoshon 11y agoYeah, that's the problem with the article... it's just as biased as the people they're lambasting. Not to say that the parapsychologists have any results that stand up.
- BoppreH 11y agoBecause the null hypotheses are supported by our current understanding of physics, which has a ton of evidence for. Our prior for this type of study should not be not "50/50", but rather "all of physics so far vs this guys".
