John T Ormerod @johntormerod.bsky.social · 29/06/2025Not all fields are at the same levels of maturity. Physics is at a different level of maturity as the social sciences, for example. Do you have an expectant difference in replicability for *any* field for the replicability given that all fields are exploring the forefront of their research areas? 110

John T Ormerod @johntormerod.bsky.social · 29/06/2025I find all of this really odd. I don't know about other fields, but there has been dramatic advances in cardiovascular and cancer research in recent history, i.e., where a whole heap of money has gone into. Advances in science haven't been uniform, but they are certainly there. 260
