As a follow-up to the previous thread bsky.app/profile/stea..., I'm going to post here some other strange results from YesNoError as I find them, or as others send them to me (if you want to be anonymous and/or get a second set of eyeballs). Numbering starts at 15 since the other thread had 14. //

I can't sleep because I'm mad. www.whitehouse.gov/articles/202... "FACT: Under the Biden Administration, the National Institutes of Health doled out millions of dollars in taxpayer-funded grants for institutions across the country to perform transgender experiments on mice." Bollocks.

A team of volunteer archivists has recreated the Centers for Disease Control website, called RestoredCDC.org, as it appeared the day President Trump was inaugurated. "I felt that we could restore any data sets that people might not have access to anymore because these were publicly funded data."

"Automated methods could enable a more accessible and scalable approach to updating confidence in claims as new evidence becomes available." NO! Not when you think replicability tracks misinformation or trustworthiness, they won't. Not when you're spreading misinformation about the topic. Sheesh!

I have many questions about this. What if the sleuth finds nothing, embarks on a project that leads to nothing? How will the validation happen? What happened to old terms like research integrity? And finally, should we perhaps reflect a bit (I would say even worry) about the incentive being set up?

this interesting realization sent me into a diff goose chase in which i wondered why a circle has 360 angles and who decided that. turns out Babylonians (1895– 539 BC) used a base 60 system (prob related to the below issue as well) and it goes from there:...

The panic over disinfo might be over, but that does not mean that disinfo does not exist or it is not a real problem. The field had issues, and hopefully this debate will stimulate researchers to tackle more realistic RQs, along with more attention to research integrity.

Zuckerberg's announcement today is why I've spent the last four years complaining about the funding relationship between meta and (earnest) scientists working on various nudges. Now, they're pointing to that body of work to abdicate responsibility for content, replacing T&S with community notes.

This emerging hot take that misinformation was just some academic panic is mind-numbingly bad and reminiscent of attempts to frame climate science, etc… as hysteria. www.politico.eu/article/nobo...

Wow. This journalist really missed the point. You can’t both say that the “eating the pets” meme campaign was disinformation and then say voters weren’t duped. We can say that factually and objectively those lies were meant to demonize migrants and attack Harris.

I disagree with perplexity.ai CEO Aravind Srinivas about the importance of sourcing in search results, but boy does he have Google's number here. Search for something they can't sell, you get an AI summary. Something they can, you don't. Try it yourself. From: www.fastcompany.com/91125423/per...

"@science.org and Retraction Watch’s investigation suggests authors, journals, and institutions all benefit from the scheme, which floods the literature with poor-quality publications and casts doubt on metrics of scholarly output and impact."

In a recent article, we examined data curation efforts in 50 COVID-19 Open Science initiatives. We found that data curation work was essential for organizing and disseminating scientific knowledge during the pandemic (no surprise there). doi.org/10.1002/asi....
