I’ve always considered sciences like psychology to be more susceptible to the reproducibility crisis. It seems if someone decides to pursue a career in academia the criteria becomes publishing, and well publish or perish as is goes.

I think some researchers areocing towards things like prerigistering hypothesis and open data+publishing source code for calculations and using that as references in there paper so it can be updated afterwards.

They’re have definitely been a lot of papers where results were later determined to be wrong but is still referenced because well you can’t update a paper from the 1970s.

This is hearsay from friends I’ve never done any serious research or published in journals. As a side note I do enjoy reading taking a scroll through https://retractionwatch.com/

Tax exempt status for religions applies to federal income tax. Sales tax is per state and state taxes vary between states.

I’m not a tax account or attorney, but maybe if they keep the receipts they can file there taxes and report it and maybe get the money back.

Since taxes are filed every year is this the first year they’ve been a pastor or whatever and doesn’t know? If it is their first year and they’re complaining about taxes on apps and phones or whatever, then it sounds like theyre kind of trashy to be honest.

I didnt know this existed but I’m not surprised, I’m sure tons of them have a Noah complex.

Carbon dating of dinosaur fossils show they are millions of years old.

The response when I asked about this was that the dinosaurs died because they couldn’t fit on the ark.

Every once in awhile the pastor liked to do a sermon or whatever trying to disprove some scientific idea. They wouldn’t argue logic though, they would just pick and choose wording in an article…because that is all they know picking and choosing words in a book so confirm to their worldview.

No, having children upload facial images to verify there age??? In the age of AI and deep fakes, or I don’t know selling that data to other entries with far more nefarious purposes.

This dude doesn’t care about kids, he sent a cease and desist to someone who actually was doing something and caught six predators on the platform.

He also said Roblox could be a dating platform which is a red flag since they probably know there platform attracts child predators.

If that wasn’t enough of reason he donated $2.5M to the White House Ballroom.

I wonder how many people are still waiting on their million dollars Musk “offered” for votes.
