Elon Musk vows to 'nuke' those accusing him of ties to Russia “I’m going to find out who’s making these accusations and nuke them,” Musk wrote on X. His response followed Democratic senators’ request to investigate claims of Musk’s alleged connections with Moscow.

It was never about free speech but we all know that
1/ X's algorithm was changed in mid-July 2024 to systematically boost Republican-leaning accounts and Elon Musk's own account following his endorsement of Donald Trump, according to a newly released computational study of engagement from the Queensland University of Technology.⬇️

One of the most important policy reflections, ever, of behavioral science/behavioral economics, going back to Laibson and Gabaix on shrouded attributes, long ago, and Sarin on consumer finance, pretty recent, and emphatically including Herd, Moynihan, Emens, and Thaler on sludge/administrative burdens. whitehouse.gov/briefing-room…

One of the many incredible things about Danny Kahneman: He was a joyful coauthor. Look at how many coauthors he had? His ideas often came from discussions. (When I was struggling to keep with the flood of ideas, all oral, he exclaimed, "Cass, you think by writing. I think by talking!")

The latest scandal in behavioral science (F Gino) adds to the evidence of running your own RCTs. Resist the temptation to "save costs" by merely apply existing research. Going forward: GPT-4 looks like a promising tool to audit method, data & analysis in (pre)publications.

“Just check the original source.” One of the tenants I give in my science lectures. I’ll have to add ‘36 questions that lead to love’ to my list of examples.
The famous "36 questions that lead to love"... don't. The NYT and everyone else reported a different set of questions from the same authors, modified to be less romantic! The original set of *40* questions wasn't online, but I emailed the authors and got a copy. Details in 🧵

Some quick theorycrafting of how much data space we can save by improving compression (especially in rollups). ERC4337 signature aggregation ( github.com/eth-infinitism/ac… ) is essential to this.

Free is one of the most enticing words but deep down, consumers know that nothing is free, but that seems to change when they become voters. My reasons why and solutions are below. chatterthatmatters.ca/post/a… #chatterthatmatters #LiberalNDPdeal #canpoli @KellyBEworks

The problem is not "how to develop a getting up at 5 AM routine". The problem is "how to develop a go to bed at 9 PM routine".
