Ilnsk··on Strategies for making reproducible research the norm
Yeah ok but most science doesn't need a supercollider. Most of the erroneous science is in the social sciences, psych especially, and there really isn't any equivalent of a supercollider in psychology. The only possible equivalent is a massive study of like 200+ subjects but once you're at that scale you can be pretty confident that your statistics have converged, anyway. The real issue is low sample size(<100 although most studies done are <30) psychology studies which are by and large relatively easy to reproduce.

It really isn't that important for most people though, most people are only looked at in terms of large aggregate metrics, most people don't feel that participation in a survey constitutes a violation of one's privacy, why are large aggregate marketing statistics any different?

This is a fantastic response. Just wondering, if they exist, what would you say are the broad overlaps between anesthesiology and QM are? I know Stuart Hameroff, another anesthesiologist, did a bunch of speculative work on the Orch OR front, so I'd assume there must be some connection of ag least some quality that makes both fields attractive to the same kind of person.
