Not The Onion@lemmy.world•RFK Jr.’s health department calls Nature “junk science,” cancels subscriptionsEnglish

250·1 year agoAnecdotal only, sorry. I’m sure it varies by field, and it’s more about letters than longer papers. There are probably fields where Nature is excellent, but I know that there is at least one where the odds of a letter to Nature being accurate a few years later is about 50%.

12·1 year agoSome stellar atmosphere models also add “alpha”, which provides an extra knob for the abundance of alpha-capture elements. If you need anything more than that, you’re doing some niche astrophysics.

Science Memes@mander.xyz•Well whenever you notice something like *that*, a wizard did itEnglish
20·1 year agoAbsolutely, but that’s not what your meme says. Peer review in this case says the manuscript should be significantly revised before publishing.

This is just silly. It just means the earth is flat there. You need to repeat this everywhere on the earth and then we’ll know the whole earth is flat. Or at least do it in a few different places hundreds of miles apart.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What's the deal the miracles jesus chose to do?
