DTLR has dwelled on the reproducibility crisis since its birth. Most of the discussions I have cited are from the scientific literature, but some have appeared in venues intended for a general audience. One of the best I've seen has just appeared in the Atlantic, in a post by Ed Yong. It appropriately places the focus on the incentive system for scientists. A one sentence summary is provided by its quotation of Richard Horton, editor of the Lancet, who said: "No one is incentivized to be right. Instead, scientists are incentivized to be productive."
Please take a look at Yong's post.
