  And it is a terrible thing for science and contributes greatly to the crisis of irreproducibility plaguing multiple fields.

  If 1000 researchers study the same thing, and 950 of them find insignificant results and don’t publish, and 50 of them publish their significant (95% confidence) results - we have collectively deluded ourselves into accepting spurious conclusions.

  This is a massive problem that is rarely acknowledged and even more rarely discussed.

  Most games (pre-ai at least) would use a brush for this and manually tweak the result if it ended up weird.

  E.g. if you were building a desert landscape you might use a rock brush to randomly sprinkle the boulder assets around the area. Then the bush brush to sprinkle some dry bushes.

  Very rare for someone to spend the time to individually place something like a rock or a tree, unless it is designed to be used in gameplay or a cutscene (e.g. a climable tree to get into a building through a window).

  Dropping anything in orbit just means it is still in orbit.

  You’d need a lot of fuel to deorbit that cube on a steep trajectory.
