@dave so what they're saying is.. healthy diet gives usual health benefits of healthy diet and no impact on chronic illness? That was completely unexpected and a groundbreaking discovery, surely their next project will study bears toilet habits in woods?
@hashbangperl @dave posting the results in this group isn’t hugely useful, but we establish scientific truth by doing research. Regrettably this research had no surprising results, but it was still valid to do it and publish those results.
@jon @hashbangperl a) I agree
b) this is about dunking on the group, and the post in the group. Negative results do not invalidate a study. They do invalidate fucking posting about it like it's world-rending.
