@c Shockingly wasteful, and yet I find the fact that it has started to self-correct encouraging and oddly exciting.

“We’re told that science self-corrects, but what the candidate gene literature demonstrates is that it often self-corrects very slowly, and very wastefully, even when the writing has been on the wall for a very long time”
