npub1hatmssxwnv2qw44s7geyldyqdw9vcsk49yjrfgcsyjwzmd67kpaq7megax (npub1hat…egax) Yeah. Same with https://danluu.com/empirical-pl/ and https://danluu.com/futurist-predictions/ as well as all of the "made up" research Andrew Gelman points out on https://statmodeling.stat.columbia.edu/.
People seem to just make stuff up in ways that are trivial to fact check. This appears to work, in terms of collection fame, fortune, citations, etc.
When someone points out errors like these, people generally seem to respond like Berkeley's research misconduct representative did and just pretend the issue isn't there.
