"I personally have lower taxes, high quality healthcare, and live in an awesome location, and I got all of that through an education and training. That is available to almost every American if they just put in the…
I think it depends on your frame of reference. Sure, for certain individuals the US, or Europe, or much of Asia would provide a better life. But compared to how things were in the past, the US has changed for the worse.…
For some context, the "up to a rotation" argument is something that has gone on for decades in the psychological measurement literature. This is true, but the clustering of points in space is not. So while the choice of…
I actually thought they were linking it to the temperature + the fact that mate is often smoked during processing (which is one reason I think I actually like the flavor unfortunately)
Yeah, believe me, I understand the reasons for self-hosting in something like Rust versus not self-hosting in Julia. Also the fact that Julia is almost all Julia. Still, the fact that it's almost all Julia suggests to…
This sort of thing is why I've started to wonder if employment rate is really all that meaningful as a general socioeconomic index. It is what it is, of course, but I'm not sure it's use as a proxy for well-being is…
Just as a nudge for something not really of practical importance but something I'd like to see for other reasons: self-hosting.
As someone who does a lot of meta-analyses I'd prefer you left in non-significant values as well, if they bear on the hypotheses at hand. Aggregating over nonsignificant effect sizes can still result in an overall…
The fundamental problem is that 0 is a privileged value of effect size. So you can replace a p-value with confidence intervals, or credibility intervals (which are the same as confidence intervals as N increases to…
Psychologist here. Anger and optimal responses to it is a complicated issue. There is research (involving randomized controlled designs) suggesting that approaches to anger where you "act it out" can actually fuel the…
I've done a lot of human behavioral genetics research and think there's not a lot more to say about big-picture questions regarding the genome and behavior (people can ignore what's been said but that's a different…
