"Science", according to psychosocial ideologues. [IMG]
Sharpe also blundered into that a few times. They variably say both propositions, that it merely and only marginally helps some but also that it...
This is great! Hopefully there is some degree of coordination with the LSHTM biobank. The link points to an archive of posts of SMCI. Is there a...
Cherry-picking is definitely always very bad science. It's pretty fundamental, even. I remain amazed that this particular case is allowed to go on...
Just want to clarify I was paraphrasing. Of course he said it in a diplomatic way that sounds benevolent and can be interpreted either way. But he...
Nope. Just a random find from a retweet. But it's short enough I figured it could be of some use. There is a messaging part to this and awareness...
Great point. Like hailing the success of therapy that manages to convince people they can fly and washing themselves of responsibility for those...
I think there are other even more-to-the-point statements somewhere. I think it was in an address to an insurer, or an insurance industry forum,...
True. The opacity is certainly in part by brain fog making it difficult to take it all in. But it's hard to argue that it isn't highly opaque when...

I wasn't sure where to post this but social and professional stigma around this disease seems kind of relevant to what psychosocial medicine...
This is the only thing that can preserve Cochrane's reputation long-term. However this is all happening very short-term and in frantic cover your...
I'd say it's the other around, but that's a distinction without a difference. There is a sentiment that too many people are freeloading on...
Just different ways of counting angels dancing on a hairpin. It's all made-up anyway so rigor is entirely optional.
I have seen comments saying that the chair and co-chair are not necessarily deciding on those appointments. So who is? It seems to be a...
I mean, there has to be a point at which you either have to declare thousands of people to be mentally incompetent and that the underlying...
Oh, well I was talking about Cochrane. I don't know what specialty this is but communications experts in public health understand these things....
It was to put pressure on Cochrane and prevent the withdrawal from happening. Which worked. Of course the withdrawal would have been significant...
There's always the "official" story and then there's the real story. He gave many tells in other writings. Of course he wants to claim he did it...
