hvanleeuwen@mastodon.social - @neuronakaya the idea that scientists ‘don’t want you to know a fact’ is statistically incompatible with their behavior

they publish ~2.5m papers/yr, upload 200k+ preprints, make >3m figures, and generate so many supplements that journals added file‑size limits because people kept submitting appendices the size of small video games

i once heard of 14gb of raw data uploaded ‘in case someone might care.’
