You prob follow @3blue1brown.bsky.social already. This latest video is great. I watched it with my son, who saw how all that middle school trig he learned solves important astronomy problems. I just wish he had learned it with these examples instead of "how tall is the tree". youtu.be/YdOXS_9_P4U

Revisiting this 2019 article bec it makes me feel less lonely in this fight abt what replications are/aren't.

i read the post on Gelman’s blog about the Protzko et al. “high replicability” paper, and then i skimmed the published paper, and then i read the review i wrote for an older version of the paper when it was submitted to Nature back in 2020, and after that i was left with 2 questions:
