for the non-academics let me explain: if one set of little dots had touched the dotted line, I would scum unworthy of life. but because they both didn't touch the dotted line and the other dots did, I am a god among men.

My supervisor reviewing my draft
A screenshot from the video game Psychonauts shows the small character Raz, wearing oversized red goggles and a brown aviator outfit, standing on a cluttered living room floor covered in scattered papers. A glowing, floating eye-shaped symbol hovers nearby, casting pink and yellow light. In the foreground, a large man with greenish skin, droopy eyes, and dark hair sits in a chair with a hand on his chin, looking tired or contemplative. The room has a distorted, surreal style, with striped wallpaper, a checkered kitchen floor in the background, and exaggerated, warped furniture.

”Vi visar dock att det är osannolikt att en ökad inskrivning av barn med utländsk bakgrund skulle utjämna skillnaderna i skolresultat. Skälet är enkelt: De grupper med utländsk bakgrund som ofta åsyftas i diskussionen går i hög utsträckning redan i förskolan.” Skriver i DN om vår senaste forskning

Just published my first article! 🎉 We study inequalities in early childhood education and care (ECEC) in Sweden by immigrant background. Immigrant-background children enroll less often - but the pattern is different from the usual story about disadvantage and access. 1/3

Inequalities in early childhood education and care by immigrant background
Children with foreign-born parents attend early childhood education and care (ECEC) to a lower extent than native-background children in most European…

i asked The Bank if ECTS credits could buy a mortgage they weighed them in silence and whispered - these only open doors in the faculty corridor and the door stood open just for me and just as i stepped forward the doorkeeper closed it

Erfarenheterna från USA, där jag verkade i 20 år, säger mig att vi borde protesterat högre, och tidigare, mot alla tendenser i auktoritär riktning. Låt oss inte göra samma misstag här hemma.

Planning seating arrangements for our wedding this summer, but not even Stack Overflow was any help. Guess it’s up to you now @idanikoline.bsky.social
Stack Overflow answer with the text: I used a GA to optimize seating assignments at my wedding reception. 80 guests over 10 tables. Evaluation function was based on keeping people with their dates, putting people with something in common together, and keeping people with extreme opposite views at separate tables.

I ran it several times. Each time, I got nine good tables, and one with all the odd balls. In the end, my wife did the seating assignments.

🚨 REPLICATION REPORT UPDATE: One year ago, a tweet by John Holbein alerted me, @ollefolke.bsky.social, and @jopieboy.bsky.social to a paper with a shocking result about Sweden’s law criminalizing the purchase of sex.🧵

A two-panel meme in the “Virgin vs. Chad” format. On the left, “The virgin correlationist” is a timid cartoon man with slouched posture, surrounded by anxious academic quotes like “Still unsure whether to include fixed effects,” “Adjusts for every variable except courage,” and “My advisor said causal inference is too ambitious.” On the right, “The chad causal analyst” is a muscular, confident cartoon man striking a bold pose. Surrounding him are chaotic and fearless quotes like “SUTVA? Never heard of her!,” “Shoves 300 variables into DDML and calls it a day,” and “His DAG has 28 nodes and 4 situationships.”
