It was published in Preprints.org, a multidisciplinary preprint server run by MDPI.
I'm not an expert here - is it correct to take anything from here or arxiv as default skeptical?
- eqvinox 7mo agoThe definition of a preprint is that it isn't peer reviewed. Unless you're an expert in the field, you IMHO shouldn't be looking at preprints. Might be OK if they come recommended by multiple unaffiliated experts (i.e. kinda half reviewed), but definitely not by default.
- simianwords 7mo agoI agree, but the public and media outlets don't practice this either: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47716699 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47716699
