Really interesting paper by the historian Cora Stuhrmann on why behavioural ecology, rather than sociobiology, is the legitimate heir to ethology. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10…
Why are pedigrees drawn with the ancestors at the top, but phylogenetic trees with ancestors at the bottom?

I am starting my new position at Cheng Kung University this week, as an assistant professor.
Huh? Twitter now prompts people to read before retweet? Seems like a great idea to combat clickbait, though I wonder: will surviving false information be harder to kill, or perhaps easier because people have more time to fact check and respond before they go viral?

Why train a neural network when a single real neuron is enough to predict crypto price? 😆
Love the idea behind this book. Great for outreach and people without the funding of an academic institution.

Happened upon this article that nicely explained the difference between cultural evolution and memetics. It took me years to gradually figure this out on my own. doi.org/10.1162/posc_a…
(1/4) Foraging humans, mammals and birds who live in the same place behave similarly We (w @TomanBarsbai, @APondorfer) find that environmental factors constrain humans, other mammals, and birds to similar foraging, reproductive, and social strategies doi.org/10.1126/scienc…
