I've been working on a new product: MakeDistribution.com! It's the best solution to creating a subjective probability distribution, i.e. one that reflects human judgement rather than being fit to data. Sounds simple, but most existing solutions have important flaws (1/15)

In the last 24 hours, two of our leading media sources (NYT & WSJ) have produced research pieces with hard data on why the U.S. should ban TikTok. Here is the NYT's killer chart. Tiktok systematically censors 80-99% of posts on certain viewpoints, relative to Instagram. 1/3

@ReflectiveAlt Imagine the reverse: I'd be unhappy if somebody said “Mr. Smith is a fantastic person, he offered to pay for somebody's chemotherapy“ and then all he ever did was say in some blog comment “I… think I'm actually going to donate to that cancer charity…“. Different update.
@ReflectiveAlt (I don't personally agree with the sentiment of his comment, but I also don't think one should exaggerate plausibly/possibly bad things people say or do.)
@ReflectiveAlt I do think there's a subtle but very important difference! Not clear from this one internet comment at all that he did end up doing this. Seems like an important difference in terms of “should I apologise for/explain my actions“, for example.
@ReflectiveAlt This is not actually Scott Alexander offering to pay drug addicts to sterilise themselves. This is him saying “I...actually think I am probably going to donate to that charity next time i get money. Though I'd feel better if it were something more reversible.“ in a comment.

I have a sadistic urge to test how various feature matchers and stereo matching algorithms perform on scenes like this. 😅
Delighted to share that I've been promoted to Professor (aka “Full Professor”) A huge thanks to my wife, students, collaborators, colleagues, family, & friends for everything. It's been an exhilarating, wondrous, fascinating climb, and what a view! Now, which peak to climb next?
@ben_golub Recent convo: Me: “this is such a promising project!” PhD: “thanks! I’ve gotten such mixed feedback” Me: “oh rly? Who was negative?” PhD: “well mostly the other grad students” 🙃 In retrospect I was hilariously negative too as PhD
Relatedly: The research people learn of early in grad school is almost exclusively from the top 1% in quality. Partly why second-year Ph.D. students are a brutal audience—they are comparing the random paper they are seeing to the top 50 ever.
just occurred to me impostor syndrome might also be a form of network effect: on average, the peers we interact with are more successful than us, because more successful scientists have more exposure

Thanks @rasbt for the signed copy. Time to brush up on some fundamentals. Making up for lost time doing half my PhD not really as an ML person. Huge respect for your education efforts to the community.
