I'm really looking forward to this attitude going out of style. The federal government is abandoning basic research. You won. Fucking move on.

I am 100% in favor of real research, basic or otherwise.

That's _why_ I'm so opposed to hype, grift, misrepresentation of results, p-hacking, and all the other nonsense. Science is measured in explanatory progress and facts discovered, not in number of nonsense papers published and funding.
