Because the BMJ published the indieSAGE and vaccine plus groups more often during the pandemic than the Great Barrington Declaration crowd or those pushing ivermectin for COVID-19, Ioannidis et al concluded that this was evidence of "massive bias"

It's also genuinely just a very bad study. The authors looked at the number of publications, in particular opinion pieces, in the BMJ for groups defined by "advocacy". The advocates for more restrictive interventions were compared to several other groups.

Good to see that Professor John Ioannidis, who famously starts many public statements with "I am probably the most cited living researcher", is now preprinting studies wherein he complains that not every journal will immediately publish his COVID-19 work.

We stayed at an Airbnb with a massive gas leak and the owner kept blaming the previous occupants for making "ethnic food". We ended up calling the gas company, which found 3 major leaks while we were packing up to escape. The way Airbnb handled it we couldn't leave an honest review

If you've come here from X we're not having the same issue on this platform as we have there. The link to this article is still being miscategorized as spam despite our reports to X. The link to the investigation below should work on Bluesky as it appears to be an X only issue.

My sinking feeling about the end of Chevron deference is that it’ll be covered by the media in the same way that private equity-triggered bankruptcies are: completely ignored and agency cost overruns/reversal blamed on the administrator, etc. It’s sowing chaos, pure and simple

Good reporting on an entirely predictable problem. Fun fact: Airbnb also covers up thousands of sexual assaults every year! Its internal safety team has "cool-down rooms" to take a break from the trauma of what they hear. It's a bad company, a bad industry, and people should just stay in hotels.

What this article leaves out is that if you hand your unlocked phone to a police officer, they can legally search it. Unless companies develop a method that allows you to show officers insurance cards and driver license without unlocking the rest of your phone, don't.
