Thomas Bayes and the crisis in science
It&#x27;s amusing that the people who are most militantly Bayesian aren&#x27;t Bayesian statisticians.  It&#x27;s almost as if there are advantages and drawbacks to the Bayesian perspective.  By the way, frequentism vs. Bayesianism has very little to do with Thomas Bayes.  All statisticians accept the validity of Bayes&#x27; Theorem.  Moreover, the two approaches are not mutually exclusive.  It&#x27;s always interesting to investigate the frequentist properties of Bayesian estimators and the implicit priors of frequentist estimators.
