This much is true no matter what your discipline is. GIGO - garbage in, garbage out.
Of course, if you feel you have to attack the article regardless, well... shrug go ahead. You wouldn't be the first nor the 100th to do his. But the real result is just making matters more tribal, polarized and borderline religious. Mudding the waters. But yeah, you do you.

- radu_floricica 5y agoIt's probably a problem of feedback. Seems tempting to blame people, but it's unlikely all mathematicians and physicists are upstanding scientists while economists and psychologists are secretly cheaters. It's more likely that in some fields you get faster and better feedback, while in others it's a lot more fuzzy and prone to interpretation. Which just makes it a harder problem, doesn't make them worse scientists.
