It’s not. The one who controls the null hypothesis rules the world.. Should a new dye be banned until it is proven safe, or should a new dye be banned only when it has been proven unsafe? The answer to the above question is not a scientific

Maybe we should. Ideally we should ban ingredients that are not on a whitelist instead of banning ingredients on a blacklist. Why are we as a society allowing these paperclip maximizing companies to experiment on hundreds of millions of peo

They are “experts”, and the public views them all as public health officials, and consequently they are painted with the same brush. The difference here is about the reality of how the public views things as opposed to some ideal where ever

Can we not use examples from the bottom 5% of the population and extrapolate that to the entire population? Also 99.99% chance the guy was making a joke.

Yes, that’s the typical argument but the problem is that they veer way out of their lane. And their lane is in reality very narrow and academically focused. When these experts go into politics and activism, their biases show and consequentl

The “I am an expert, so listen to me drone about some political topic that’s vaguely related to my expertise” has been a thing for years now. And it’s usually some controversial thing that doesn’t have to do with science anyway. In general,

This article feels like an illustration of how easy it is to fool top chess players. For example, if the accusation was against Hans Niemann, top chess players and their fans would be eating it up.

Is that weird? I feel like it’s plausible though. Very rare to have chess games with more than 200 moves.

Yeah, worst thing about it. You can’t really push it to do a lot of tasks because sd cards are so unreliable, compared to nvme for example.

Okay…but I’m not going to say North Korea’s economic data is fraudulent, therefore implications for the economic data for large countries. Also, read the thread before replying to random phrases you see.

It’s easier for small countries to do certain things that’s much more difficult for large countries to do. And by your logic, North Korea is relevant too, and it is and Finland is too, but in very narrow areas; and not really relevant when

The percentage gets worse when you look at the top say 10% of PhD students. Go to AI/ML conferences and see who is presenting the papers; it’s almost all international students in US universities or students from outside the US.
