Unti AI can give me then article providing a comparison of correlation coefficients across fields, I remain unconvinced. I think it was posted here or on the bad place, but I forgot to save it. Does anybody know the article?

The sigil was drawn in salt and ash, the candles lit at the pentagram points, the incantation declaimed.
There was a shimmer - a demon appeared.
"Curious. What ritual is this?"
"I got it from ChatGPT. I included all protections in my prompt!"
"I see," the demon said and stepped out of the sigil.

I saw a post here a while ago explaining how the author avoided using specific technical terms with non-academic audiences when asked about their work. The point was to illustrate that doing science often consists of learning the right terms. I am looking for that post it was much more eloquent!

Our Approach:
We first identify where students need support using standardised tests. From there, we offer tailored courses to help them overcome these hurdles.
Our goal is to help students reach their full cognitive potential and thrive in their studies. 3/6

Many students don’t struggle due to lack of skills but because adapting to university-style learning is tough. It’s about managing time, study strategies, and building focus in a more independent setting. 2/6

In this paper, I assess the "green thumb" (skill/flair etc) as a candidate explanation for replication failure. Very briefly: I try to give it a fair chance, but remain unconvinced.
