b'This week we talk about \\u201cThe natural selection of bad science\\u201d from Paul Smaldino and Richard McElreath. We get bummed, but try to put a positive spin on things. You can find the paper here http://rsos.royalsocietypublishing.org/content/3/9/160384 \\n\\nHighlights\\n[1:00] \\u201cThe natural selection of bad science\\u201d http://rsos.royalsocietypublishing.org/content/3/9/160384 \\n[5:00] the need to distinguish yourself as a scientist - innovative and/or high output?\\n[6:45] Our next SpecialiTEA - we want to hear your experiences about leaving academia\\n[11:00] \\u201cwhen a measure becomes a target it ceases to be a good measure\\u201d\\n[13:30] could quality control help \\u2018fix\\u2019 metrics?\\n[15:00] Competition - how quickly can you move from open science topic A to B purely with ranting?\\n[18:00] I have the powerrrrrrrrr (I wish soundcloud would let me add gifs - millenial problems)\\n[26:00] We get a little confused about power in the simulations - we highly recommend reading the paper to get the details right :)\\n[29:00] Challenge to listeners - grab Smaldino & McElreath\\u2019s code and figure out how to create a scientific utopia!\\n[31:30] The simulation\\n[32:30] Watching out for forced retirements\\u2026\\n[35:00] Sam is super millenial and reads out this awesome tweet about terrible things in science https://mobile.twitter.com/aidybarnett/status/1036392482139865088\\n[37:00] Not enough detail in original papers to attempt to replicate in The Reproducibility Project: Cancer Biology (https://osf.io/e81xl/wiki/home/), also a thread from @chrisdc77 https://twitter.com/chrisdc77/status/1024589364238667776\\n[42:00] \\u201cThe continuous degradation of scientific process\\u201d\\n[44:00] Does promoting replication attempts solve the problem?\\n[48:30] So, what the hell can we do to stop the decline of science?
