In my CS area, many results aren’t interesting enough to be replicated, even in high quality journals. Often the results aren’t even very relevant to what is otherwise a design paper, and are just there to check some boxes. The fact that research results aren’t replicated is just symptomatic of a much larger disfunction.

It has been a long time since I’ve read a paper where I actually wanted to use whatever they were selling, let alone reproduce whatever results they were claiming. We don’t even have “novel, exciting, fancy” work!

When something comes out of a paper that really changes the game (like say MapReduce), it gets replicated a lot.
