We need to acknowledge that science has always emerged from a mess and a lot of misunderstanding. That is the constitutive character of the scientific process. Failures of understanding at the individual level can even be critical for collective progress. Science is a distributed activity.

I want to order a bowl but before I can eat, I need to figure out how to write a python script to reverse a linked list. Can you help?
Anonymous User | 13:20:18
Great question! To reverse a linked list in Python, you can use an iterative approach.
Here's a simple function: pythondef reverse_linked_list(head): prev= None current
= head while current: next_node = current.next
current.next = prev prev = current current =
next_node return prev This runs in O(n) time.
Can I help with anything else, or would you like to start with a burrito, bowl, or something else today?

I have a new paper. We look at ~all stats articles in political science post-2010 & show that 94% have abstracts that claim to reject a null. Only 2% present only null results. This is hard to explain unless the research process has a filter that only lets rejections through.
It must be very hard to publish null results
Publication practices in the social sciences act as a filter that favors statistically significant results over null findings. While the problem of selection on significance (SoS) is well-known in theory, it has been difficult to measure its scope empirically, and it has been challenging to determine how selection varies across contexts. In this article, we use large language models to extract granular and validated data on about 100,000 articles published in over 150 political science journals from 2010 to 2024. We show that fewer than 2% of articles that rely on statistical methods report null-only findings in their abstracts, while over 90% of papers highlight significant results. To put these findings in perspective, we develop and calibrate a simple model of publication bias. Across a range of plausible assumptions, we find that statistically significant results are estimated to be one to two orders of magnitude more likely to enter the published record than null results. Leveraging metadata extracted from individual articles, we show that the pattern of strong SoS holds across subfields, journals, methods, and time periods. However, a few factors such as pre-registration and randomized experiments correlate with greater acceptance of null results. We conclude by discussing implications for the field and the potential of our new dataset for investigating other questions about political science.
