Best part of this interview is how Jon Haidt & Tyler Cowen model adversarial debate. Tyler asks more hard-hitting questions than usual (appropriate given the the topic). Haidt is calm and composed throughout. Mutual respect is never in question, despite intensity. Masters.

Good blog post by @HunterClarke about how @matter has created a "ratchet" to systematically improve article parsing. We were inspired by the "page load test" described by @kocienda in Creative Selection. All our changes are now governed by one rule: The score never goes down.…

I generally disbelieve men who claim they can be friends with women, with zero sexual tension. This is different from claiming the tension isn’t manageable; it is manageable. But let’s not pretend it’s zero.
Maybe the “men and women can't be friends without sexual tension” people just came from small families, so they grew up without a dozen siblings and cousins of the opposite sex. I guess that’s one more reason I’ll need to give my kids lots of siblings, in case I needed any more.
