"The problem of irreproducibility in science
has gained widespread attention, but one aspect that is discussed less
often is how to find the right balance between replicating findings and
moving a field forward from well-established ones."
Researchers on social media ask at what point do replication efforts go from useful to wasteful.
Human knowledge has progressed exponentially since the dawn of modern science. It is no longer reasonable to accept claims without sufficient objective evidence. The harm from religion, alternatives to medicine, conservatism, and all other false beliefs will be exposed on this blog by reporting the findings of science. This blog will also reinforce what should be the basics of education: History, Civics, Financial Literacy, Media Literacy, and Critical/Science Based Thinking.
