Research fraud is likely very rare but it's not about a few stories that show up about unreplicable studies that stick out. There was a study a few years where they tried to replicate a bunch of top cited psychology papers and the majo

Ha how meta is this comment because the obvious inference one makes from the title is "Why Most Published Research Findings on Covid Are False" and that goes against the science politics. If only he had avoided the topic of Covid

Don't know the details but the cell phone number thing is due to terrorism reasons and mandated by the government, not due to individual businesses choosing to. Used to be you could just buy sim cards using cash.

What a terrible argument. Let's have drug dealers roam the streets because they can pay reparations or taxes. Lol.

My point is, it's a random internet quote. You don't have to be "credulous" or "irresponsible" to believe it because no one with a life is going to check sources for such a minor thing. You just believe it to s

You don't need to form firm conclusions about anything to get tricked by an internet comment. Pretty much everyone reading this would get the wrong idea about the quote. No one is going to the source and forming "firm conclusions&

Depends on the department I guess. In my CS department, it's more like a job interview than some personal essay bs.

The essays are about the actual research they are interested in doing, it's more like a part of a technical interview. Unlike the tell me about your life, do you play lacrosse, bs that undergrad college applicants have to go through.

Second is reasonable because the peer review is done by academics for free, and there would too much duplication of work. Peer review is a good amount of work, takes a few hours per paper.
