The link above talks about a paper by Sturrock et al. in which slight fluctuations were detected in radioactive isotope decay rates and might affect how we uses radiometric dating. Young Earth creationists did used this to claim that radiometric dating is not accurate and that it is base on assumptions. https://www.discovercreation.org/blog/2012/10/26/80-years-of-scientific-fact-wrong-radioactive-decay-rates-not-constant/ Could the rate of radioactive decay be different in the past that today?
