It's almost like the publish or parish model puts an unnecessary burden on researchers and contributes to the ongoing problem of low quality or even outright incorrect research as researchers try to manipulate results to make them publishable.

The inquiry found that Israel was committing ‘war crimes and crimes against humanity’ in its attacks on hospitals.

Can't wait for this to be ignored like every other finding that they are committing war crimes.

I'd argue that the internet has made this problem worse, not better.

In fact, I'd argue that the internet has taken away tons of people's ability to admit they're wrong because there's always an echo chamber that will support you on even the dumbest of beliefs and anyone fact checking anyone is seen as the enemy. You see this on places like Facebook and YouTube comments where someone will make a claim, other people will think it makes sense on a cursory glance and express their agreement, then someone who actually knows what they're talking about will politely correct them and everyone will gang up on them because they've disrupted the vibe, and simply because of that the unanimous decision is made that the correct answer is in fact wrong and is a government conspiracy.

It’s something that literally every dev has done at some point before they knew better.

If you're working for a multinational tech company handling sensitive user data and still make this mistake, then you are being malicious in your incompetence. This is something that would cause you to lose a significant amount of marks on a first year college programming project, let alone a production system used by literally billions of people.

that logged unencrypted password data

Why the fuck would you need to log a password ever? This is absolutely malice and not incompetence.

Hanlon's Razor revised: Never attribute to malice what can be attributed to incompetence, except where there is an established pattern of malice.

Does anyone remember an article/interview a while back where Mark Fuckerberg shamelessly admitted that he chose not to hash passwords in the original Facebook codebase specifically because he wanted to be able to log into his users' other accounts that use the same password? I swear I remember reading something like this but now I can't find it.

There's a reason the French beheaded the clergy alongside the nobility.

Same reason Siemens, Volkswagen, Bayer, and many more, including a ton of American ones were onboard with the Holocaust.

Genocide is good for business.
