Status Updates From Quirkology: How We Discover...

Love that he fully admitted these studies can't be replicated and was like "but maybe they're true!"

Yeah man I'm gonna need you to repeat this is several other locations and get similar results otherwise this is basically just an anecdote

Im sorry you just

Ignored

That June didn't support your data?? You can't just ignore data that's inconvenient to your study!

Why is he calling this a large scale public experiment when what it actually is is a large scale voluntary response survey given at a fair

So voluntary response surveys aren't great in terms of the results they give you which tend to be highly biased

I mean yeah luck isn't real what do you want man

If you're going to cite a study and say that it's controversial tell me why it's controversial and why you feel it's worth citing anyway

Hey you can't tell me a study is controversial and not tell me why

So idk who needs to hear this but a professor doing a non-sanctioned "study" on his college class is not a scientifically valid study and is instead just some guy fucking with his students

Which is fine just don't pretend it's a scientifically valid experiment

It's weird how everything cited here is a new outlet and not like a journal almost like his 3 person stock market experiment has 0 scientific validity or something

"The experiment involved 3 participants"

So it has no statistical significance and proves basically nothing lmao
