Don't Trust "The Science," Test The Science
Harvard Medical School just got schooled by a blogger with a laptop and too much free time! This headline perfectly captures why the scientific method exists in the first place - because even prestigious institutions can publish absolute garbage. Some random dude from Wales just forced Harvard to retract SIX papers and fix THIRTY-ONE more because they couldn't be bothered to check if their images were copy-pasted like a freshman's term paper. Peer review? More like peer-pretend-to-review. This is why science isn't about trusting authority but testing claims. The white coat doesn't make you infallible - the methodology does. Next time someone says "trust the experts," remember that a blogger in his pajamas just embarrassed one of the world's top medical institutions.
