I agree that unaligned incentives have lead to the replication crisis, but I fail to see how research driven by “curiosity” and not by “success” will align those incentives. The author admits that poor incentives have determined the course

I only have a bachelor’s degree, but I’ve worked in research labs and read a lot of papers. I’ve always thought it was silly that all data, design documents, and code is not published as a standard. Is it just protocol from a time when it w
