So it’s a ‘Dating Service’, right? (sarcasm!)

New Technique Provides Accurate Dating of Ancient Skeletons Well it's new but how can they know it's accurate?

It only works when general literacy is assumed.

Pretty soon that Clintoon pic with the good-looking mummy caption will appear, and it will be all your fault. ;^)
It is appropriate that DNA survival and dating are somehow related, heh...

It only works if the skeleton has not crossed any borders illegally.

I'm literate enough to read this:
The researchers are currently compiling a larger dataset to increase the geographical/time coverage of their model and improve its accuracy. « Given the rapid increase in the number of ancient skeletons with published DNA, we believe that our technique will be useful to develop alternative hypotheses,» Dr Esposito will say

Oh noes that cant be right. All sorts of folks have tried to convince me that carbon dating was really valid and accurate
Maybe this technique will be better

At least we won’t have to rely on Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s driver’s license.

You can pick cherries, iow. Also in the excerpt:
TPS has already shown that its results are very similar to those obtained with traditional radiocarbon dating. We found that the average difference between our age predictions on samples that existed up to 45,000 years ago, and those given by radiocarbon dating, was 800 years [800/45000 is under 2%]... Radiocarbon technology requires certain levels of radiocarbon on the skeleton, and this is not always available.

Why are you being so hostile, is this a grad project for you or something?

Why are you pretending to be so concerned about the science, when you clearly have absolutely no interest in science?

Well then. I'm an engineer, jerk. I do science for a living. I have a Masters Degree in SCIENCE. I care about data. I'm a published author in the topic of techniques for accurate modeling of dynamic magnetic fields in the presence of large ferrous structures. I know a bit about the pitfalls of models. They tuned a model to a known specimen. They extrapolate that a good correlation to this one sample makes it generally accurate and useful to extend to general sample. I asked how they make that extension when they themselves say they are still building their dataset. Then you jump down my throat like I declared the earth flat and Obama god-emporer.
If all you want is an amen choir to all your articles than why even post to a forum that invites comments?

Or when you’re following the accepted *narrative*.

That’ll come in handy around here.
