Hey now for every 5,000 "No's" there's the coveted 1 "Maybe but more data is required".
Maybe if you're really lucky, one day you can get a "Yes, but..... also no."
This is how the science do
RIP in pieces, every supersymmetry based theory :(
Is there a new observation regarding supersymmetry?
Couldn't tell ya. Iirc SUSY based theories were pretty much all killed by data by the time the LHC reached 12TeV collisions, and I've been in a different field since then
data be bitching like this unless you work for a private company in which case you are told to make data the company's bitch
Lol I need this shirt.
A theory is valid only when no proof to the contrary is known, after which the theory must be adjusted to accommodate the new findings, or discarded.
Ah yes, systemic biases definitely don't exist in research because researchers are perfectly indiscriminate human beings and poor research has never led to swaths of the population being hurt or neglected. /s
