"Across a band of countries stretching from Norway to Russia, temperatures were an unprecedented 6C above the same 30-year benchmark, "

adj83 | 6 years ago | on: Statisticians want to abandon science’s standard measure of ‘significance’

This gets at the heart of fake science. Everyone today thinks surveys or studies are science.

The purpose of a paper is supposed to be to contribute something new to a field, not just perform a statistical study.

But you or I cant say that now as so many organisations use "studys" as the basis for their field while maintaining that they are scientific.

For me, the fact this is even being discussed really is good news.
