Been feeling this a lot lately. I thought it was maybe just me getting older and more cynical, but a lot of studies these days do seem to suffer from biased, or overall thoughtless experimental design. Even many of the questions as a whole that seem to get funded feel like they lack empathy, or that their answers are obvious or trivial. There’s definitely a dangerous counterculture against science these days that doesn’t need any further feeding, but also scientists don’t seem to be doing their fields a ton of favors.

More criticizing their recent work than judging, and I definitely understand that the processes behind funding and grants have more than their fair share of blame here.
