OK, so how can we analyze whether results are made up, partially made up, credible, etc.?

I'm sure people would hate to fund that too, or have their lab or university associated with it. How could they avoid it?

- wolverine876 3y agoThese are real questions that people have been thinking hard about, and finding solutions for, for centuries. It would be valuable to explore them, IMHO.
- James_K 3y agoThat's actually a good point. The spider people should have looked into this instead. Much better ROI if they could solve it. Maybe they could even incorporate jumping spiders somehow. It would be excellent marketing.
