Congratulations to everyone who said it would get this bad. Your prize is watching everyone who disagreed now claim no one could have predicted it would get this bad.

Autonomous AI agents are now built into many browsers. A naive user can take an online survey with as little as the click of a button. For behavioral research, which depends heavily on online samples, this is a real problem. (1/7)

It's not just the rabid ones any more. Very reasonable people at very solid institutions are starting to make very bad decisions.

Switching sides in Ukraine and gutting USAID are foreign policy versions of shooting someone in the middle of 5th Avenue. Except there are thousands of someones. Yet, the not losing support part seems to hold firm.

To me, this is the crux of what's going on down south right now. If the executive branch give an order that is clearly illegal, why would anyone follow it? Don't wait for a court order if it's clearly not legal... Just say "no", eh?

The political scientists feel the same way: so much of this is also unconstitutional. It's a crisis. Right now.

Concentration camps preceded extermination camps by several years. They began in Germany just as administratively, just as innocuously, as this. It's important to understand the historical track we are on.

We keep hearing about masculinity from the Zuckerbergs of the world-- this woman has shown more courage in this 60-second clip than any of the tech billionaires have shown in recent memory as they grovel at Trump's feet.

In an industry-standard perceptual decision task, affect ratings behave a lot like confidence ratings. Could be because confidence is a kind of goal-congruence, but we can't be sure. Thank you, Alan and Kobe!

Elegant evidence for cultural shaping of concepts: monkeys can perceive colors in categories, but lacking language, these won't overlap between individuals or with humans

A person on a bicycle is by far the most energy-efficient among animals and machines per distance traveled relative to body weight. The bicycle is magic. www.jstor.org/stable/24923...
A graph titled "Cost of Transport" showing the relationship between body weight (in kilograms) and energy consumption for distance traveled (calories per gram per kilometer) for various animals and machines. It highlights that a person on a bicycle ranks first in efficiency.
