I suppose my day can only go down after this but a student came by my office hours and said he appreciated my class. I wish students understood how much that motivates me (and probably others)

Zwischen den USA und Kanada wurde eine riesige Brücke gebaut, für Milliarden an Steuergeld. Jetzt ist sie fertig, die Eröffnung war bereits geplant, aber Trump lässt die Brücke geschlossen halten. Eine Milliardärsfamilie, die in der Nähe eine lukrative Zollbrücke betreibt, hatte Trump Geld gespendet

The criticism of Trump, Kennedy, and Bhattacharya that was so subversive that the ADA had to eject the Editor-in-Chief of their flagship journal from their annual meeting for sharing it? Prior today it had fewer than 1000 views. Do your thing.

This is a very nice piece of scientific writing that lays out how evidence and theory interact. I may assign it to my Econ students even though it’s about physics so that they can better understand how science progresses theconversation.com/our-large-ha...

The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call “symbolic compliance.” That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.
