This week on Grumpy Old Geeks, Fyre Festival rises from the ashes yet again—but not as a festival, because even Billy McFarland finally figured out he's better at selling pipe dreams than tents. Meanwhile, Amazon and Microsoft are tapping the brakes on their AI data center dreams, Google's AI keeps confidently explaining made-up nonsense like it's gospel, and Kevin Roose once again tries to convince us to have empathy for the glorified autocomplete machines. (Spoiler: We won't.) Also, OpenAI wants to buy Chrome even though they can barely afford their own lunch tabs, Perplexity says the quiet part loud about stalking your browser habits, and Meta lays off more VR developers while pretending they care about human rights.In the “it's all stupid, but at least it's entertaining” department: Uber gets sued for making it harder to cancel than joining Scientology, Adam Neumann dupes investors again, sperm racing is now a real thing (and yes, there's crypto involved), and Bluesky caves to the almighty blue checkmark. Plus, Affinity Suite reminds us you don't have to sell a kidney to escape Adobe, The Wheel of Time gets an open-world game that'll probably drop after the heat death of the universe, and Wednesday Season 2 is on the way, because Netflix refuses to let its only hits rest.Stick around for The Dark Side with Dave where we grumble about Andor Season 2, lament bad writing decisions, geek out over old-school arcade games, and learn that memory colors are apparently a thing. Oh, and if you're feeling fancy, go ahead and thank ChatGPT for wasting millions in server bills—because if Sam Altman's crying about manners costing money, we're grabbing the popcorn.Sponsors:Insta360 - The first 30 people who use code “gog” at store.insta360.com get a free 45” invisible selfie stick worth $25!DeleteMe - Head over to JoinDeleteMe.com/GOG and use the code "GOG" for 20% off.Private Internet Access - Go to GOG.Show/vpn and sign up today.

Rather than rely upon press reports, Professor Tim Evans of Middlesex University delves into Reform UK's policies, finding no evidence of far-right attitudes but instead a mix of old-school Thatcherite ideas with socialist control. He suspects some ideas could be appropriated by other parties. Donald Trump's Agenda 47 baffled him more, being a smorgasbord combining centre-left ideas on welfare with more nationalistic, protectionist policies. By offering something for almost everyone, he may have a broader base than previously. Tim is very concerned about the rise of thousands of fraudulent scientific papers, with 10,000 believed to have been retracted last year alone. This black economy, driven in large part from China, India, Iran and Russia, could prove extremely dangerous in the scientific arena. Learn more about your ad choices.

Listen to this interview of David Evans, Professor of Computer Science, University of Virginia. We talk about what makes scientific reading different. David Evans : "Most scientific papers are making some claim. So, the real goal as a reader is to understand, Do I believe them? Have the authors done what's necessary to make that claim and make it convincing? But there's another goal, too, and that is to understand, What can I learn from this paper technically — have the authors done something that might inform work that we're doing — do they have something that might provide understanding or prove useful to projects that we are currently involved in or have had in the backs of our minds. Now, those are two quite different goals for a person's reading, but the structure of a paper — especially a well-written paper — that structure will help the reader figure out where to go to achieve which goal."

Is evolution an undisputed fact? Or is there more going on behind the scenes that the general public isn't aware of? What does the scientific literature actually say on the subject? Hosts Trey and Lauren delve into this fascinating topic with Dr. Mark Stengler and Mark Stengler Jr. in episode 16 of Creation.Live.

In a world where technology is constantly evolving and AI is everywhere, it's all too easy for content to be deceitful, including scientific papers. Capturing source metadata, incentivizing reproducibility, and protecting whistleblowers are steps we can take to ensure science remains honest.In this episode, Satyen interviews Dr. Elisabeth Bik. Elisabeth is an experienced microbiologist whose groundbreaking work in scientific integrity has led to more than four thousand potential cases of improper research conduct. She also founded the blogs Microbiome Digest and Science Integrity Digest, and was awarded the John Maddox Prize for "outstanding work exposing widespread threats to research integrity in scientific papers" in 2021. Satyen and Elisabeth discuss image manipulation in scientific papers, the impact of AI on scientific integrity, and why paper mills must be stopped.--------“There's people looking at statistical problems or DNA sequences that don't make any sense, and appear to have been made up, or plagiarism. [...] We have a community of people doing this, data detectives or image detectives. And I think what we have in common is a desire to make science better and to flag these papers so that other people can see that there's a potential problem with that paper.” – Dr. Elisabeth Bik--------Time Stamps:*(01:34): Image manipulation in the context of scientific papers*(17:41): Elisabeth explains scientific paper mills*(22:52): Why biomedical research needs to slow down*(34:20): How Elisabeth manages backlash from scientists*(46:45): How prevalent fraud is in science today*(50:32): Satyen's Takeaways--------SponsorThis podcast is presented by Alation.Learn more:* Subscribe to the newsletter: https://www.alation.com/podcast/* Alation's LinkedIn Profile: https://www.linkedin.com/company/alation/* Satyen's LinkedIn Profile: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ssangani/--------LinksFollow Elisabeth on LinkedInFollow Elisabeth on TwitterVisit Microbiome DigestVisit Science Integrity Digest

We've talked about a lot of different types of research on this podcast...from investigations into drought, to space exploration, to the future of food. But what about researching 'research' itself? That's right, on this week's episode of the Big Questions Podcast, we're going meta! We chat to Dr Patricia Logullo, a meta-researcher from the Nuffield Department for Orthopaedics, Rheumatology and Musculoskeletal Sciences, about why it is so important to examine the practice of research itself, and how scientists such as herself help to ensure research reporting is transparent, complete and reproducible.

Race in scientific papers by TRANSFUSION's Monthly Podcast

Dr. Stella Immanuel joins to expose how California legislation is removing licenses and suing doctors who question the clot shot!There's a new draft scientific paper available online. Don't expect to hear anything about it from the press, even though directly from the supposed “expert” class. Steve Kirsch is a tech entrepreneur who has become one of the top trackers of the mass vaccination fraud. He joins us today to talk about the contents of this paper. It turns out more than half of the children they've tracked who got Covid 19 shots ended up having a “systemic reaction” to them, meaning some sort of response from their entire body rather than just from where they got the shot. And in six percent of cases, the reaction was bad enough that the child wasn't able to perform normal daily activities. Dr. Paul Alexander was on Trump's Covid-19 team in 2020, and he joins us today to discuss the tremendous cover-up. Gab CEO, Andrew Torba joins to expose the backlash he received from the radical left, for his new book "Christian Nationalism - the Biblical Guide on Taking Dominion and Discipling Nations".

I am joined by Jimmy Blanchette who is an accomplished Scientist and a licensed Amateur Radio operator since childhood. He has a deep passion for building antenna arrays and exploring challenging modes of communication and frequencies. Jimmy published 2 Scientific Papers about his unique home-made Triangular Array Rotatable Polarity (TARP) Antenna System which was repurposed to make reliable contact with Non-Human Intelligences via high power transmissions throughout the solar system and into deep space. He then simplified and refined his First Contact Protocol to make it available to the broader community by using low-cost handheld transmitters. The method was deployed and tested Worldwide with a small group of experiencers who were able to validate the reality and effectiveness of the First Contact Protocol developed. Since 2017, Jimmy has had numerous contact experiences with Non-Human Intelligences which he was able to document thoroughly. In February 2021, Jimmy came out public for the first time to share this important information with the World. In this interview we discuss Jimmy's journey into radio contact as a modality for communication with beyond Earth intelligences, 144 & the golden ratio, consciousness and how people listening can get involved. Jimmy has also had some great interviews with Grant Cameron on his You Tube channel which delve deeper into the mysterious Earth Grid and sacred geometries which are key to unlocking the knowledge about the natural of reality itself. Two of the more recent interviews are below.Grant Cameron interviews with Jimmy:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8tetBLI2qVMhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_YTNkxHWZNIUp The Vibe is also available on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCWWdF0VBy_8G89S5y9I0pBw If you would like to be on the podcast or get in touch then please email me at upthevibe@protonmail.com

Join us as this episode of Hats All We Know, where we first talk about the Kentucky Derby hats and we make our bets on which horse will win, then we discuss the reason for having safety seals on medicines in stores. Apparently non-humans can author a paper, as we learn how a cat once did, and finally how much did the auction to buy New Zealand get up to on Ebay which somehow turns into Brittany Spears talk at the end. Enjoy! 

In 1938, Italian physicist Ettore Majorana vanished after taking a sudden sea journey. At first it was feared that he'd ended his life, but the perplexing circumstances left the truth uncertain. In today's show we'll review the facts of Majorana's disappearance, its meaning for physics, and a surprising modern postscript. We'll also dither over pronunciation and puzzle over why it will take three days to catch a murderer. Intro: By design, no building in Washington, D.C., is taller than the Washington Monument.

In this episode, we unpacked a few more scientific papers as a follow-up to our conversations about the southern resident's killer whales. We also talked about the Senate hearings in Washington state that took place this past week about salmon habitat restoration and the commercial whale watching license program. We shared our thoughts on this frustrating situation. After this episode, we will be moving on from covering the situation in the Salish Sea so heavily and go back to covering it from a new standpoint. That way we can back to more of our regularly scheduled topics on our episodes. If you are looking for ways to get involved with things going on in the Salish Sea for Southern Resident Killer Whales, we are happy to direct you to organizations that are doing work up there.

Henry, MD, to talk about the best ways to read and review the scientific literature.  And Ilana Rachel Yurkiewicz, MD, talks about chaos and opportunity. Show notes  By Hitomi Hosoya, MD, PhD, Resident in the department of internal medicine, University of Pennsylvania Health System - If you are a peer reviewer of a manuscript submitted to a journal, you should be unbiased, consistent, constructive, and focused on the research. COPE guideline is a good resource. - If you are a reader of a published article, it is important to ensure that the abstract has the same conclusion as the body of the article. - If you are a clinical practitioner and wondering how to apply findings of published data, the editorial section is a good source. - If you are a trainee and wondering how to stay up-to-date, Oxford Textbook of Oncology or ASCO University are recommended.

In this episode I bring back Dr. Kym Fasczewski from Appalachian State University to help explain what you will find in a scientific journal article.  What do terms like "double-blind" mean and whay makes it important?  What is a p-value?  Basically we want to give you a primer on reading peer-reviewed researched.  While we talk about statistics, we are not going to make you calculate any.  We also talk about how to spot fake scientific journals; these are journals where there is little to no review.  In fact we discuss how someone pulled the wool over the media's eyes using such a journal. Here are some links that either we referenced or I thought might be helpful. Research Gate is a website that allows scientists to post scientific papers.  Access is free. PubMed is a site run by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) that allows you to search for journal articles based on search terms.  However, you are likely only going to get access to abstracts of papers on this site. Scholar.google.com is similar to PubMed in that you can search for papers, but it does a poorer job of separating out legitimate sources from less legitimate sources.  However, if you find a paper in PubMed and entire the entire title of the paper in Scholar.Google.Com you might be able to find the entire paper for free. Statistical Thinking has an in-depth article on issues with p values.   MethodsMan has some good articles as well.  This specific one is about the issue of replication in the medical field. How to read a scientific paper by Adam Ruben of ScienceMag.org My take on how to read a scientific paper published in Performance Conditioning. Last, here is a link to Dr. Fasczewski's bio at the Appalachian State University website (Go Mountaineers!, your host earned a master's degree from Appalachian State).
