I would add having read a lot of research publications: anything that hasn't been replicated should be assumed false. Only once something has been demonstrated at least twice, by two separate unaffiliated research groups, should anyone assume the findings might be accurate.https://twitter.com/patrickc/status/1417695524883296257 …

And that's more reasonable (although, for many fields, it's a bit much, I understand why some would use that approach). Just be careful with how you word it. "Assume falsity" is a disastrous approach, what you describe here is not.

But thats exactly what has been demonstrated. https://journals.plos.org/plosmedicine/article?id=10.1371/journal.pmed.0020124 … What casey is saying is absolutely the correct approach.
