> Modern science isn’t flawed

Yes, it is. A lot of the issues found in modern science with replicable studies comes down to the publish-or-peril approach. If you have academics on temporary postdocs having to publish X papers to get an extension, find a new postdoc, or maybe get a professorship then you're going to have issues. Add to this the lack of incentives to replicate papers under this stress and people build up on top of them rather than validating them first. Especially when the studies are expensive/time-consuming with MRI machines etc.

> Stop with the meta bullshit

The impact bad research has both financially and in society is huge. For example the issue recently with Alzheimer's where loads of work was built up on a 2006 seminal study that wasn't replicable (because of academic fraud). Finding incentives to catch bad science early is important.

I have no idea what the rest of your message is about.

We humans are soooo good at fixing systemic issues. Surely we’ll eradicate this decades old issue at great cost, plus the same old costs, and new costs; it’ll be just as tidy and a big win as your tidy little post puts it. It’s so simple it needs but a paragraph to explain, afterall. Really, no greed or other perverted incentives will creep up as the process moves on and government loses interest again.

The rest of my post was to suggest where the flawed incentives come from; educationally outdated meat suits and apathetic voting public who think they’re off the hook to society. Elder politicians enable such perverse incentives because they care about fiat currency flow, not science. Ignore it and dig into vacuous meta theory because the public is kowtowed by threats by the seniles

It’s amazing to me how many think choices today are guaranteed to matter tomorrow. You have no idea if what you say is possible given the state changes that occur constantly reshaping global society

In the end you’re peddling high minded BS

We can’t get the world to agree on climate change. Surely we’ll keep all hackneyed science from propagating, certainly we’ll keep the costs from ballooning to serve any perverse incentives that pop up as the public lacks any real command of the political system and it’s pork spending

Sure, sure. Musk will have a full colony on Mars first
