What do you think about using p<0.05 hypothesis tests?

5sigma is just as arbitrary as 0.05 (~2sigma)

Is this a frequentist vs. bayesian thing?
I side with bayesians, so fuck the hypothesis thingy.

I like it because it's the easiest way to justify if some difference is significant or not.

A lot of the theoretical assumptions behind t or z-tests are rarely met on actual data. And even when they are the conclusion given by low p-values are often not especially interesting ("Wow the effect isn't 0! Isn't that great?").

Also it's problematic since there's like a million research projects going on using these tests, and those with non-significant results never get published, so we really get a bad grasp on the likeliness that any significant result is purely coincidental. If it is doable journals should ask researchers to replicate the result before publishing it.

Practically, the line has to be drawn somewhere. If not 0.05, then where?

Man, she's skinny.

.05 fags can't into post-hoc analysis, and just do it to seem cool.
