Ok but it seems like an omission of important contextual information that his mother's face looks like this: twitter.com/Variety/status/165

This guy is often shown as the illustration of the Dunning-Kruger effect. Supposedly MacArthur Wheeler, the 'invisible' bank robber. But he doesn't fit the wanted ad at all. Is he a different incompetent bank robber? I guess there are no pictures of MacArthur Wheeler?

⭕ Red Teams ⭕ are undervalued, but are vital for organizations dealing with adversaries and dynamic environments. This is why Red Teams were recently used by OpenAI in their development of GPT-4.

If there's one brain disease I swear all psychologists have, it's one that causes them to spend years of their life developing their own scale, then publishing it without an accessible, final version anywhere in the manuscript or online.

There is a worrying trend in meta-science where authors are unwilling or unable to state which articles are subject to which critiques, as if only the prevalence of issues across articles is relevant and not the specific instances of these issues.

Scrutiny is the goal! twitter.com/sharoz/status/1650

Our findings reveal that migrants receive 4.4 percentage points fewer responses. Moreover, their responses contain fewer slot offers, are shorter, and are less encouraging. This discrimination likely perpetuates existing inequalities for disadvantaged children. 3/9

This is not surprising given Greg Francis' critique of the article immediately after it was published. ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/

Great use of Finnish register by @CarolineUggla at . Testing Bateman’s principles in a context of low marriage rates but prevalent long-term cohabitation. Would be good to use more use of big demographic data in the evo behavioural sciences

Recommendations for studies from @rubenarslan - avoid saliva assays (use serum if you want hormones), get frequent measures, use probability of ovulation (not fixed phase), allow for lagged effects of Oe/P. Big daily diary samples have lots of power.

I'll be in London at Tuesday-Thursday to talk about sex hormones (Wednesday 5:45pm). Tweeps, let me know if you want to meet there or near UCL

More proof politics is personal.

When a Congressperson’s sons (but not daughters) were of an age that they could be drafted, their pro-conscription voting during war drops 7-11%… but it goes back to normal once their kid is too old to be drafted.

There are two kinds of people, those who accept this dichotomy and get in a fight about putting things in buckets and those who will have a good time today.

There are two kinds of problems: strong-link problems and weak-link problems.

Weak-link: quality depends on how good the *worst* things are

Strong-link: quality depends on how good the *best* things are

One of my favorite charts of all time (by @salonium):

“Before 2000 – when pre-registration of studies was not required – most candidate drugs to treat or prevent cardiovascular disease showed large benefits.

But most trials published after 2000 showed no benefit.”
