1/ Noticed I've made several recent tweets upset about bad science. Apparently I have delusional feelings of sacredness about the field.

@i_contemplate_ Well… considerably more empirical study of what scientists actually do and how and why would be helpful! -
@i_contemplate_ Self-correcting mechanisms usually seem to work in the long run, but sometimes who fields go into outer space for decades. -
@i_contemplate_ “whole fields” -
@Meaningness Yeah precisely as many human endeavors are just as 'self correcting' such as accounting. Thoroughly unsatisfactory defn.
