Podcasts of Influence and Cultural Significance

As novaTopFlex, I often listen to Brodie Robertson and Bryan Lunduke podcasts about Linux, BSD, Solaris, and other systems. As geoTopFlex, I primarily listen to Geography by Geoff, though i also listen to Mileage Mike, roadwaywiz, Geography King, Extreme Geography, and other channels with more information about a certain topic. As futoTopFlex, I often listen to Kelly Minter podcasts, as well as podcasts about cultural and historical sites, plus locations of historical significance elsewhere.

Significance tests, p-values, and falsificationism

This thread takes its inspiration from the recent discussions in social science and statistics about significance tests, what theyโ€™re good for, whether p-values should be banned, and what all of that has to do with general scientific methodology, particularly the Popperian one called falsificationism. See this Twitter thread for a random place to jump into the discussion. That place, however, was where @f2harrell suggested we create a thread over here. Iโ€™ll start this thread off, if I may, with...

...that's also worth remembering with statistical significance and a p>=0.05 level or 1/20 chance of chance. Difficult stuff.

Look at all these patterns! And now, we find their logic, their fit. We find theme.
