Too many books: “something something Lebesgue measure. I said what I said.” later “Dear reader the Sigma symbol means summation, hope this helps avoid confusion, please see the appendix, apologies from the authors for this obscure notation” ??? What kind of learning path are your readers on

The “who is this book for?” section of textbooks: This textbook is intended for graduate and advanced undergraduate students. Really any undergraduate, when you think about it. High school? Why not. It should appeal to anyone with an interest in things. Your 6-month old might like chapter 7 —

After years of research on human interaction and experimenting with novel ways to organize communities, today I unveil a brand new social media app. The key idea: your interactions are arranged in ‘bins’ along a social dimension. You post, we put it in one of these ‘bins’. The name? Histogram.

A revised version of "Minimum Viable Experiment to Replicate" is up, where we expound why standard expectations from replications are unrealistic and experiments that may deliver on those replications are rare, if not nonexistent. #metasci #sts #philsci philsci-archive.pitt.edu/24720/7/Mini...

“Can we address the elephant in the room?” Certainly. Upon entering the room, bow (from the head only) or do a small curtsy. On presentation to The Elephant, the correct formal address is 'Your Majesty' and subsequently 'Ma'am,' pronounced with a short 'a,' as in 'jam'. Hope this helps

Who knows if grants will actually be a thing ever again BUT if anyone wanted to so a postdoc on grammar formalism and (neuro)symbolic models of sentence processing I would be so happy to help write such a proposal. So many low hanging fruits. Just saying 😅

In a new preprint with @kleind.bsky.social, we ask two questions: (Q1) People differ in how they perceive the similarity of stimuli in their environment. How can we model the features underlying similarity judgments in arbitrary domains, while accounting for individual differences? osf.io/agpb5_v1 🧵
