How the excellent The Studies Show podcast ( @tomchivers.bsky.social and @stuartjritchie.bsky.social ) surprised me by introducing me to the fiendish collider bias: brianclegg.blogspot.com/2024/12/the-... #Statistics #badcorrelations

In response to the final few seconds in this podcast, that CB is something to be aware of but really hard to actually DO anything about. Here’s our suggestions in the genetic epidemiology context: journals.plos.org/plosgenetics...

Some said it couldn’t be done. That it was impossible; ridiculous; absurd. But @tomchivers.bsky.social and I have done it: recorded a whole podcast episode about collider bias. www.thestudiesshowpod.com/p/episode-57...

When John Kingman - who has done more to drive good policy on UK economic growth than anyone - gives advice, I really hope people listen. open.substack.com/pub/samf/p/w...

Depressed, but not actually surprised, to see that Morrissey is now singing in front of slide shows of “Puppetmaster” Bill Gates and Anthony Fauci 😖😩

Love this podcast! Good banter, mediocre science.

This is the kind of echo-chamber slop I was hoping NOT to see on this platform!

This is such a silly straw man, and Carl (and everyone reposting this) should know better. The argument is that *to the greatest extent possible, science should not be political*. Everyone agrees that it IS political, but that’s bad! We should make it less so.
