      excellent, enjoyable discussion of my recent preprint on generalization in psychology (https://psyarxiv.com/jqw35 ). if you don't want to read 20 dense pages, you could listen to 40 minutes of this podcast and come away with a pretty accurate summary. thanks @minzlicht, @yorl! https://twitter.com/fourbeerspod/status/1219983054908817408 …

      Jokes aside, the task now imo is to understand why science works when it does. Which means putting aside the rationalist fairy tales and doing the hard work of analyzing lots of specifics and coming up with new, quite different understandings

      Yeah that’s discussed in the podcast. It’s boring and the @fourbeerspod guys say they don’t want to do it; they want to have Big Ideas, that’s what they signed up for in the Olde Days. I totally sympathize, which is why I am an internet crackpot, not a scientist

      Do they discuss that Darwin's 8-year-long exhaustive study of both living and fossil barnacles was important to both his development of theoretical ideas and his reputation as a careful observer whose wacky ideas should therefore be given credence?pic.twitter.com/EL3BVxnNiP

      See http://darwin-online.org.uk/EditorialIntroductions/Richmond_cirripedia.html … Maybe science is composed of "physics and stamp collecting", but stamp collecting has led to some damn impressive results.

      Well… they do discuss that currently in soc psych it’s hard to get descriptive studies published, because it’s not the paradigm of the field. As an outsider, I suspect the field needs 5-10 years of trying diverse pre-paradigm approaches before settling into a new groove
