hahaha I tried LCA for the first time a few days ago, how did you know what I found?? 😆

Can we not just take him to Alaska and tell him it’s Greenland ? He’ll never know.

New years are so funny it’s always like oooohhh I wonder what wonderful things THIS year will surely ah fuck nevermind

Here's hoping that this gets so popular that all those poultry-loving gastronomic aficionados roaming the world wide web end up accidentally learning something about digital signal processing 🙃

Far down in Saloni's post, an example worthy of becoming a standard reference argument against extending the y-axis to zero (or showing full range)

Big new blogpost!

My guide to data visualization, which includes a very long table of contents, tons of charts, and more.

--> Why data visualization matters and how to make charts more effective, clear, transparent, and sometimes, beautiful.

Just 0.001% hold three times the wealth of poorest half of humanity, report finds Data from World Inequality Report also showed top 10% of income-earners earn more than the other 90%

There is one overriding political problem, from which all others follow. Until it is addressed, every policy advanced by governments is window dressing.

Excited to share our manuscript about BrainEffeX, a tool for exploring fMRI effect sizes. Includes why we made it, how to use it + contribute, and how we made it.

Sophie's world? If something more serious, maybe Nigel Warburton's 'A Little History of Philosophy'?

Headline from an article in Nature this week that states "Prizes must recognize machine contributions to discovery. The future of science will be written by humans and machines together. Awards should reflect that reality."

Lol the Nobels can't even acknowledge women's contribution to discovery. But sure let's acknowledge The Machines.

Me: i’m Autistic

Them: Oh you take things literally

Me: No that’s kleptomania

oh noooo

I’m so tired of being lonely
I still have some love to give
Won’t you show me that you really care 🎶

Karl Marx labubu... no, labour theory of value

Thousands of Israelis stayed home from work, flooded city streets and blocked roads and highways across the country on Sunday, staging some of the largest anti-war protests in months as the military prepares for a major assault on Gaza City. wapo.st/4mvMVfK

1 in 3 doctors were born overseas.

1 in 5 university academics were born overseas.

1 in 7 UK business founders were born overseas.

1 in 2 builders were born overseas.

1 in 5 nurses were born overseas.

1 in 4 transport workers were born overseas.

The media, their framing, IS the problem

Unfortunately the team of PhD level experts in question consists of Ariely, Boldt, Croce, Fujii, Gino, Hauser, Lesné, Schön, Smeesters, Stapel, Tessier-Lavigne, and Wansink.

Radical!

It's funny to think that my preference for urban living in areas with dense, mixed-used, walkable neighborhoods, multi-family housing, small businesses, and diversity probably stems from Sesame Street. Like an early education in Jane Jacob's urbanist theories.

I mean I’m in Oxford, I can also go and shout under your office window if needed 😁

Woohoo! I am away for most of the rest of the summer but I’ll make sure to check in with you in September for a chat!

I love when airlines are like ooooooh we didn’t realize you’d ALL be bringing a bag

one cool thing about Scandinavian countries with comprehensive public health insurance is places like Denmark can do a study on… everybody and conclude that yes COVID vaccines are safe

btw if by any random chance this makes the cut, I'd be very interested to be in the loop. I did some initial simulations a while ago based on a statistical hunch, but always needed someone better versed in the methodology (I'm a cognitive scientist, the other camp) to work it out.

Modern theories of emotion (especially “interoceptive inference”) often cite William James as a key inspiration. But what did James actually say about emotion, and is it supported by the data? Here’s a brief look at the core arguments and classic evidence. 🧵

One of the many things that upset me about the "powder keg" metaphor that's being amplified by English news outlets is that exactly the same metaphor was used to retroactively 'explain' the wars in the Balkans in 1990s as reflection of 'simmering animosities'.

Fabricated then, fabricated now.

Drowning Doesn’t Look Like Drowning Drowning is not the violent, splashing call for help that most people expect.

Thanks for the reminder @janemunday.bsky.social. Every summer, I repost this article DROWNING DOES NOT LOOK LIKE DROWNING. To date, I know of FOUR kids who were saved after someone who'd clicked on the link learnt how to spot actual drowning. Take time to read and pass on.

Got Butterflies in your Stomach? I am super excited to share the first major study of my postdoc @the-ecg.bsky.social - Now out in @natmentalhealth.nature.com! We report a multidimensional mental health signature of stomach-brain coupling in the largest sample to date www.nature.com/articles/s44...

Variables measured with more granularity capture variance better. Genes (30K) vs 2 levels of environment (shared, unique) is rigged towards capture of genetic variance. Q: does this disparity also affect their interaction, and how? Will some true environmental variance end up looking like intrcshn?
