Top tier journals often require within manuscript replication (e.g., Dev Psych). Then there is the ManyBabies project from focusing on well powered replication studies. Finally, the Open Science Framework making data available for replication. Talk to your mentor and good luck with your research!

Hilarious reading. Is this really the feeling in the Hamptons?

It sounds like someone is missing grounding at all in evolutionary biology.

I have a colleague who is having trouble getting her vaccine from CVS. Do you mind sharing what pharmacy you used? I used Vons.

Just got mine as well. No problem at all although the pharmacist did share that they don't know when or if there will be another update.

Keep me posted please.

I'm pretty sure he was a reviewer on my first manuscript. He gave me great guidance, sprinkled with humor over my amateur mistakes. About a particularly weak analysis, "it is the wont of every scientist to publish all of their available data."

This is very nice. Even though it's from UM, it would make a nice introduction to my lifespan course.

Alt Natl Park: "Local authorities provided crowd estimates, which were then reported back and compiled for the final count."

Thanks.

Yeah. Me too. I'm just not fine with casting unnecessary or unjustified doubt on a good resource. Seems like a lot of chest puffing going on in this thread.
June 15, 2025 at 10:06 PM
Well, I mean we could also use official estimates from the relevant police departments. They at least have good info on the metrics of the location and expertise in estimating crowd size for reasons of public safety.

Agree if the numbers are impossible but it is completely possible that ppl outside the city limits joined the Boston protest. Who is claiming 1M in Boston anyway? I haven't seen that from Alt Natl Park Service. Isn't this thread about whether their numbers are valid?

His methodology is literally, "According to our back-of-the-envelope math, that puts total attendance somewhere in the 4-6 million people range. That means roughly 1.2-1.8% of the U.S. population attended a No Kings Day event somewhere in the country yesterday." He acknowledges this is unofficial.

There are common metrics for determining crowd size used by both PDs and Natl Park Service. No reason to go all conspiracy theory on this. www.eventhosts.org/wp-content/u....

It's also consistent with the Alt Nat Park estimate based on local PD reports. What is the basis of gelliot's "crowdsourcing?"
June 15, 2025 at 7:20 PM
You did work hard on this. That was a lot to pack into 20 min and it was powerful. Thanks for weaving those threads together.

Great analogy.

She should be released. She should never have been detained in the first place.

This is just so damned destructive! Really sorry that you have to go through this so early in your career!
April 26, 2025 at 9:30 PM
Thanks for your two cents. I was thinking primarily of travel concerns but I had not factored in lingering concerns about the society.
