This fascinating article New Yorker article, The Truth Wears Off, discusses the “decline effect,” where certain scientific findings—supposedly proved using well-established, seemingly rigorous experimental method—fail to be replicable years later.
I always enjoy it when we ever-so-clever humans get outclassed by the world.
(P.S. For the record, I do know that science isn’t totally broken.)
