Yeah I agree. I think it’s certainly entertaining, but my faith in the standard practice of science isn’t threatened by the social media / rapid experimentation. I’ve seen a lot of hyperbole about how this will replace methodical science and other malarkey and if it had been a slam dunk simple thing they would be crowing incessantly. But as these things are, it isn’t simple or obvious, and it require a meticulous process that can’t be easily supplanted by nitter feeds.
