This is great:
Most importantly, I had one bad thing happen to me. But remember: To them, that was Saturday. On Sunday, they had to wake up and climb another mountain.

Congratulations to Seattle's own @ericacbarnett.bsky.social , publisher of @publicola.bsky.social , and winner of @rsaofficial.bsky.social 's annual Media Award. Her memoir is noted in the announcement, but her journalism overall is such a tremendous service to the city of Seattle. Well deserved!
not many people know this, but Barilla has a line of 3D printed pasta it sells mostly to the fine dining industry. I don't want the pasta. I want the pasta printer
At its core, the political economy of scholarship was never supposed to rely on ~$50k from a smelting fortune. Institutions have hollowed out their support, the feds have done the same, and all that's left is inadequate private funding.
The last time I tried to engage with Jay Bhattacharya in dialogue I ended up on administrative leave. 🤷♀️
When I worked to keep science denial out of schools, I worked with leaders at NAS to create resources so the public could understand why not everyone
claiming there’s a debate deserves equal scientific credence. We don’t “teach the controversy.” I’m happy to connect you with NAS staff who get this.
All the research shows that “debating” people with fringe ideas does little except legitimize those fringe ideas.
So no, this isn’t actually how we improve.
Are different desires (e.g., food, sleep, alcohol, cannabis) experienced and regulated the same way? We tested this question in a new preprint with Yang Liu, @minzlicht.bsky.social, @wilhelmhofmann.bsky.social, and @kevinmking.bsky.social: osf.io/preprints/ps...
Our findings on urgency were similar to this one. We found that people high on urgency experienced a lot more desires, conflict, *and* resistance attempts, but not necessarily greater enactment.

Another way to think about self-regulation is through @wilhelmhofmann.bsky.social's desire/conflict framework. We replicated and extended his prior work in our recent EMA sample, and asked whether self-regulation of desires operates similarly across a wide range of behaviors.
Yeah, we use an MDES framework where we simulate a range of ES (and cluster effects, etc) and see what our design is powered to detect
That's what we do regularly.
ACER and @rsaofficial.bsky.social should do better. This is shameful, and especially troubling given the direct attacks on mental health and substance use research.
What's the point of submitting alcohol research to a journal that has no standards or rigor?
I wrote about The Pitt's horrifying ICE episode, and how Daredevil: Born Again does what Dr. Robby can't: call them fascists, then break their skulls open with ninja weapons
Mamdani is not just filling the potholes with the crew. He's creating a visual and personal reminder of the dignity inherent in all of these anonymous government jobs.
Posting to request any examples people have seen of AI disclosure statements in recent papers that are not just "grammatical edits" or "detect errors in code" - I know there's a lag in publications but surely some folks here are writing them already or seeing them in papers?
Yeah, for sure. Or scaling it: start at 3 doors, and go up to 99. Maybe at some point it'll click.
Oh, that's good.
That's good. It helps emphasize that it's not random because the host knows where the car is.
Oh good is it time again for my illustrated Monty Hall thread?
Quick reminder that the Monte Hall problem is a lot easier to understand if you think of a variation with 100 doors instead of 3.
Here you're presented with 100 doors, you choose 1, and the host opens 98 others. Should you switch?
As someone who went through conversion talk therapy I'd kindly like to show Mark to the nearest cliff's edge
let's make this bitch so disappointed he leaves the site. fuck him
Mark out here thinks that my parents abusing, raping, and killing me in the process of "their talking" is fine because freeze peach or some liberal shit
Mark, "really abuse" is gonna be all your known for now. Your epitaph.
FYI: I am going to stop summarizing Supreme Court decisions on here as they come down. One comment has been plucked out of context of all my reporting, misread, and used as the basis of a mean-spirited pile-on. I am not going to subject myself to this. If this was your goal, then congratulations.
I'm so sorry Sean.
The racist blogger highlighted the “IQ” part but the rest of this was more interesting in my opinion
Cowen just casually mentions about how half of economics is ripping off topics of other disciplines and just showing up koolaid man style and acting like they invented the wheel
Same in science. Ideas are a dime a dozen. Executing them well is where all the work and magic happens. That's the hard stuff.
As a grantee and study section member I urge CSR to restore discussion of 50% of applications. At 33% - one unfavorable score can push a strong grant out. For resubmission - panel feedback is essential! @altnih4science.bsky.social @jeremymberg.bsky.social #CSR #NIH @drugmonkey.bsky.social RTpls!
The psych and social work professions have been in dereliction of duty staying silent as kids are fed to the wolves, in contravention of decades of research on the harm of non-affirming families. Time to make them speak up again. We did it before in 2023 and forced a statement, time to do it again.
I remember when they opened the Grosvenor station on the Red Line in DC in the early 1980s. It felt like a huge deal! I agree, people love trains and we should build all of them
So, I edit a journal, and when you submit a paper it asks if you used AI in the preparation of the paper...it's a checkbox, and then an open response if you check yes.
It's obvious that a lot of people are liars. People are submitting work that obviously used AI in various ways, but they check "no"
I'm super busy sorry
