@samijiries Case in point: clearly some people outside epidemiology, namely mathematical stats have busted claims made by epidemiologists. Likewise same probabilists can bust claims made by linguists given the low scientific standards behind some linguistic claims. https://t.co/hmdufLWAEc — PolitiTweet.org

@samijiries For the specific, I can cover later in some details some misclassifications (I am away from my library). For the general, statisticians have had problems w/ rigor in linguistics; Jelinek's quote: "Every time I fire a linguist, the performance of the speech recognizer goes up". — PolitiTweet.org
