  1. [ Blog ] Veeam and 13 released

    The wait is over! The long-awaited new Backup and Replication 13 is finally GA and available for download.

    The number of new features and enhancements is impressive, further solidifying the solution's leadership position in the market for backup solutions.

  2. Transaction logs serve as the replication source in distributed databases. The primary node writes changes to its log; replica nodes consume those entries to stay synchronized, enabling high availability without data loss.

  3. A quorum system is a collection of sets — called quorums — where every two sets intersect. This intersection property ensures any two operations share at least one common node.

  5. New large scale registered replication project probing Construal-Level Theory.
    It shows the typical pattern: Hundreds of published studies (with positive effects), but virtually no replication attempts. Metaanalytic bias correction suggests true effect close to zero.

    The preregistered replication:

    * N = 11,775 from 27 countries and regions; 99.995% power for g = 0.23
    * direct and paradigmatic replications

    Results (positive effects are consistent with hypotheses):

    * temporal, d = 0.08, 95% confidence interval [CI] = [0.003, 0.16] (effect in original study: d = 0.92);
    * spatial, d = 0.04, 95% CI = [−0.03, 0.11] (effect in original study: d = 0.55);
    * social, d = −0.27, 95% CI = [−0.34, −0.19]; and
    * likelihood, d = 0.03, 95% CI = [−0.05, 0.11].

    "These findings provide limited evidence for the predictions of the theory and present a critical challenge for CLT.“

  6. New replication work shows social‑science results remain uneven, even as data sharing improves. What’s striking is the growing reliance on AI—both to produce research text and to evaluate it. Scholars are rightly asking how we trust tools that now shape the studies they assess. #Science #Replication #OpenScience #AI #ResearchIntegrity #ScienceFriday

  7. Of all three reviews of a recent Science Advances submission, mine was the one that was paricularly critical of the methods, with numerous questions about documentation, references, data, sample sizes, etc.
    Guess which reviewer was the only one not invited for a second round of reviews and now the paper is accepted?

    Point in case why GlamMagz are the main driver of the #replication crisis and not paper mills or AI slop. The latter are just convenient distractors from the actual problem.

  8. There you have it:

    "Together, these dynamics suppress replication and cumulative verification, distort the visible scientific record, and misdirect expert attention away from epistemically stabilizing review."

  9. "While economists pride themselves on the robustness of their seminars, what actually matters is publication in just five journals. The editors have immense power. Peer review is closed and anonymous. Virtually nothing is ever retracted. Post-publication peer review is minimal. Instead, my experience suggests that there is a culture of not publicly criticizing anything that has been published. If you do, you are viewed as too aggressive, possibly due to some kind of personality defect. Meanwhile, the original authors can use their right to reply for deflection and ad hominem attacks. The fear of upsetting one’s superiors is palpable.

    The machines will perhaps bring about some changes. They are massively useful for replication. Without asking a robot to explain it to me repeatedly as if I were a five-year-old, I never would have understood the SCM or Borusyak et al.’s critique of Autor et al.; I never would have done all the coding my replications required; I never would have been able to search for errors in German-language source materials. The cost of doing replication studies has dropped dramatically, even if the institutions and the culture of economics are still hostile to them. Perhaps the system will catch up.

    Ultimately, however, human experts are still needed to determine the truth. "

  10. Beyond the p Value: Reform Spreads Across the World and Across Disciplines

    ...as evidenced by this article from Brazil, which I'm delighted to see:

  11. We ♥ Replications!

    The OSC is excited to be a partner in the upcoming LOVE REPLICATIONS WEEK 2026: an online event where you can learn about doing reproduction and replication studies 📚

    When? Next week! March 2-6, 2026
    Join daily online for talks and tutorials to learn how to:
    🔹 Do reproduction and replication studies
    🔹 Choose and justify replication targets
    🔹 Collaborate with students on replication projects
    🔹 Write reproducible reports and get certified reproducible results

    Find out more about the program and register here: forrt.org/LoveReplicationsWeek/

    Reliable research starts with results that can be reproduced! ✅

  12. Don't miss the & course by @dataegret :postgresql:

    Five live online sessions designed to take your PostgreSQL backup and replication knowledge to the next level.

    You will spend some quality time with me. Do not worry, I am friendly and only slightly emotional about backups 🔥🧯🤣

    Big secret (): the first part of the training will, of course, focus on 🫢

  13. Now there are two areas where it seems that increased #retraction rates are likely not due to increased scrutiny of published articles, but, rather, due to lower quality publications. I would still not bet that these data will help sway any of the “increased scrutiny” proponents.

  18. A new article by Chloe Patton shows how debates about #OpenScience often slip into absurdity – like demanding #replication from the #Humanities. You can’t replicate history, culture, or interpretation the way you replicate a physics experiment. It’s a different kind of knowledge.

    :doi: doi.org/10.1093/reseval/rvaf052

    Forcing STEM-style standards onto the humanities doesn’t improve #science – it just adds bureaucracy and limits academic freedom.
