Nonsense! Zoidberg’s a fine physician. For Aliens. Your mistake is being human!

I disagree there - peer review as a system isn’t designed to catch fraud at all, it’s designed to ensure that studies that get published meet a minimum standard for competence. Reviewers aren’t asked to look for fake data, and in most cases aren’t trained to spot it either.
Whether we need to create a new system that is designed to catch fraud prior to publication is a whole different question.
- Comment on Debtors' Club, a narrative driven, roguelite-style, city tax department management game, with a nice hand-drawn art style, released on Steam 3 months ago:
I feel like you can do both these days, can’t you? Hades was one of the first to break this ground.
- Comment on Warner Bros. and Legendary Set Denis Villeneuve Event Film for 2026, Next MonsterVerse Movie for 2027 5 months ago:
Is Sicario an adaptation? I can’t find any reference that it is.
Also, Prisoners is technically an adaptation of a short-story, but it’s a not very well known short-story (I don’t even see a name for the story on Wikipedia) from the writer of the screen play, so you could make an argument that the short story is essentially just a first draft of the script.
I do agree that we should just let him continue doing whatever he wants, he’s done excellent work.

Hi Will!
Now that you’ve tried out directing as well as acting, which side of the camera do you prefer?
Are there any things you’ve learned from the experience of directing that you think will help in future acting roles? Additionally, is there anything you would do differently about directing Kodar if you got to start over from scratch today?
- Comment on Hades II is now available in Steam Early Access! 7 months ago:
How long did you play BoI for if getting burned out on Hades after 40hrs was fairly quick?
- Comment on military industrial publishing complex 8 months ago:
In my time looking for published papers, I have only very rarely seen papers which are also hosted by the university of the author. I suspect in your case it was hosted because of something specific to the school or the author, rather than a general thing.
What I am seeing more often in my field is people posting a version of the paper on “arxiv”. This is a similar open-access approach, but you do have to be careful with arxiv papers as you can post anything on it, including work that never was or will be peer-reviewed.
- Comment on That gourmet luxury blend... 9 months ago:
If you’re mixing things up in the kitchen, typically you try to be somewhat precise with ratios.
The difference in this case being that because the actual ratio of the blend is unknown, you don’t actually know how it would crystallize. Technically they could even change up the ratio week to week based on the price of high-fructose corn syrup so you wouldn’t even get consistency from it.
- Comment on How do I get informed on Joe Rogan without watching his videos. 1 year ago:
I agree with many of the other commenters that OP debating their husband might not be the best idea.
But if that’s what they want, “Decoding the gurus” did at least one Rogan specific episode, and I think they do a better job covering and dismantling Rogan’s rhetorical approach than the podcasts above.
- Comment on Hollow Knight - 6 Years Later. [Ceave Perspective] [1h31m08s] 1 year ago:
It’s optional for beating the games story, but required if you are trying for full (112%) completion.
