Whoever has to revive that language every fortnight must be sick of it.

Fair, it should probably say "New research supports/corroborates/whatever..."

If the results can't be reproduced then can they be trusted?

Sure, but if you're going to abandon research because you reckon you already know the answer then you may have misunderstood the purpose of science.

Reply to TIL More than 80 percent of the ocean has never been mapped, explored, or even seen by humans and as a result, we know more about the surface of Mars than Earth by [deleted]
Born too late to explore the earth.
Too early to explore the stars.
Just in time to explore the oceans.

Reply to comment by ZenHun in LPT: when shaking hands with someone elderly. Wait I till they apply pressure then gently match it or use less pressure. by Cephelapod
Because what's normal for a 30 year old can be agony for a 70 year old, hence this post.
Matching pressure is a key part of any good handshake.

Reply to LPT: Since April 1st is coming up. A good tip to live by is that everyone should be able to laugh at your prank at the end. If everyone ends up laughing at the person getting pranked, and they are just the punchline, chances are you're just being a jerk. Don't be a jerk. by moosepooo
If it's only funny when it's not aimed at you, it's not funny.
