This. Claiming objectivity by using "frequentist methods" is lying to yourself.
To be clear: use whatever you want, as long as you do it to the best of your ability. But don't think you can ever eliminate subjectivity, That's never gonna happen.

But I think a deeper issue is that by the time you’ve chosen an SESOI and a model, you’ve done more subjective decision making than a Bayesian on a bad day and you could just as well put a regularizing prior.

They should do a SAT for US presidents but just with basic shit like "On day 1, an apple costs 1 dollar. The following day the price goes up 100%. On day 3, the price drops 50% and then stays stable until day 5. How much is the apple on day 4?".
You fail, you don't get to be president.

What i hate about usernames is their randomness. You see an account called "cumguzzler69" who turns out to be a world renowned entomologist while the account called "insect-knowledge" most likely is an actual roach.

Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default.
Here's how to turn it off.

This is not intended to bash Peter, but fuck LinkedIn and burn it to the ground. This platform has actively enshittified work culture and is a hotbed of performative posting. I do not want another big tech firm (Microsoft) defining academic performance metrics. It's bad enough we have h-index.
@altmetric.com - I can't believe I'm saying this, but I think you need to start capturing LinkedIn shares for academic publications. That's rapidly becoming the most active platform in my experience.
