It has been over 20 years since my favorite science magazine, Scientific American, went over to the dark side thanks to government money to promote the Climate Change hoax.
Sure miss my favorite hobby!
Oh well, harmonica is fun anyway.
Rats. I suppose that means they might not take a paper from me on the health benefits of smoking cigarettes. (Rising obesity in America can be correlated with the decline in cigarette consumption).
Quite frankly, I’ve had serious questions about Physical Review for several years...
There has not been any significant new fundamental physics since the 1960s...
It appears a though computers have replaced the human brain, thereby eliminating “original” thought...
In addition, nowadays, DEI is a factor in preparing & reviewing submissions for publication and a large proportion of physics publications look more like the publication of a telephone directory...
LOL, good one!
Subjects such as math and reading techniques in education, homosexuality (including actual percentages of population and determinant of and treatments for trans young persons, and also effective penology (prisons, etc), climate change, economic models, medical studies (epidemiological and pharmacological, especially re mRNA safety and efficacy--anything funded by big pharma). Other titles come to mind, but these are the ones to examine first.
Thanks for posting this. Ike was an amazing person/POTUS!
“Once upon a time peer reviewers tried to duplicate the results of the papers. Now most are little more that glorified grammar checkers. But if they start checking others’ research then theirs might be checked too, those destroying the entire governmental-academic complex.”
From President Eisenhower’s farewell address:
The prospect of domination of the nation’s scholars by Federal employment, project allocations, and the power of money is ever present and is gravely to be regarded.
Yet, in holding scientific research and discovery in respect, as we should, we must also be alert to the equal and opposite danger that public policy could itself become the captive of a scientific-technological elite.

Tom Lehrer was way ahead of us...”Just remember please to call it “research!”
This explains a lot...

Check out the top names. They should ring a bell.
Interesting timing.
For me, it was more like thirty years ago - when this fella grabbed the helm!
John Rennie, seventh editor-in-chief (1994–2009)
Again, note the timing.
China's Higher Education Press and Wiley sign partnership agreement

Cochrane. Now Wiley...
Not a coinkydink, is it...
I hate that guy.
...what shall we say?
“Optimising the sensory characteristics and acceptance of canned cat food: use of a human taste panel. (Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition)”
I have a text thread of me and a buddy discussing how marketing and treat R&D would come about creating the perfect cat shit flavored dog treat. That submission you posted gave me a guffaw! Somebodies gonna have to take one for the team in R&D... ARF! Scariest part would be if the tester people were all “so THIS is why they’re always rooting around in the litter box and play sand!” LOL

many cats we’ve known recognize just how krappy most cat foods are....and won’t eat them
local cats’ diet:
1. $18/pound premium DeliCATessan roast turkey
2. salmon
3. tuna fish
4. the most expensive (only) kibble
5. rotisserie chicken
things they won’t eat at all:
1. cheap sandwich type sliced turkey
2. Costco kibble (it is cheaper by far but it is also the ONLY Costco product that fails ... the cats take one sniff and march away)
