(1/4) New study with PhD student @LindaBalcar. Gallup and Pew Research found that most Black Americans want to maintain or increase levels of local police patrol and spending. We tested experimentally if these policy preferences are firm. They are firm. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
A problem with algorithmic feeds is how much they distort our idea of popular opinion. We know only people with strong feelings post & that the algorithm hides moderate views. Add to that a system that shows you more of whatever outraged you, and soon you believe it is universal

Does diversity make teams work better? Apparently not! A new, comprehensive preregistered meta-analysis found that, whether the diversity was demographic, cognitive, or occupational, its relationship with performance was near-zero.
Cornell has decided to bring back standardized testing. They've found two big things: - Kids with test scores had better grades in college. - Dropping test scores barely impacted any dimension of student body diversity:
Meta-analysis: Diversity has only a vanishingly small effect on team performance. osf.io/preprints/psya… We conducted a reproducible registered report meta-analysis on the relationship between diversity and team performance. Overall, our results show that diversity (across…

In my head I’m trying to imagine how quickly the protesters who barricaded themselves in the building at Columbia would descend into a communist iteration of Lord of the flies if left to their own devices. My second thought is whether this can be live-streamed
@JordanSchachtel @elonmusk Wait, why would you give a Marxist a loan? Seems like a key indicator they won't pay it back...
@elonmusk She probably has $500k in loans after all these years of studying Marxist theory 😂
I did a quick search and found that this lady, who refused to reveal her name, is named Johannah King-Slutzky. She is a paid instructor & PhD candidate at Columbia studying "theories of the imagination & poetry as interpreted through a Marxian lens" No, I'm not making this up.
Reporter grills Columbia student after she demands the university help feed protestors occupying Hamilton Hall: "It seems like you're saying, 'we want to be revolutionaries, we want to take over this building, now would you please bring us some food'."
@JonahDispatch In 2359 Space Fleet Academy stopped teaching ‘theories of the imagination & poetry as interpreted through a Marxian lens’. It was found to be useless and somewhat silly.
@JonahDispatch @BullyMaus The Republic will not be safe until all of these people are working hourly jobs at Walmart.
Goddammit I didn’t get the memo. I thought we were still doing “Asians are oppressed minorities” week. This week it’s “Asians are racist oppressors just as bad as whitey.” Why am I always the last to know!? 😤
like the amount of asian americans that don’t engage with the world critically at all rn…like if you were to ask them their thoughts on any world issue going on right now or anything political they’d just give you a blank rave-molly stare

Gdyby Kaczyńskiemu naprawdę zależało na Polsce, splunąłby na atom, hejtował CPK i pociągi w ogóle, osobiście wbił łopatę pod rozbudowę Okęcia, otwarcie zainwestował w patodeweloperkę, nawoływał do bojkotu budownictwa socjalnego i opracował program Kładka+.
The world has become really strange. Although many things I believed in in my childhood in communist Poland turned out to be illusions even before I reached maturity,
@dem1128 @kitten_beloved I have both qnap and synology, and one observation I made is that my synology stopped getting updates relatively soon after purchase and qnap is delivering them constantly. Synology was my first NAS, but once I tried out qnap I think it wins with updates and price.
Yes, I'm against trespassing and disorderly conduct on private property & believe that people who do it should be arrested if they don't desist, quelle horreur
@CathyYoung63 So for you the good news about a Biden presidency is that it keeps liberals quiet when police are beating the crap out of students and professors. That says something about the nature of your anti-Trump politics.
@83dollaroring The way I see it, if your application strongly applies fourier analysis on real-world data, it's engineering. If it doesn't, that doesn't mean it's not engineering, but I would suggest looking for ways to apply it because you're probably missing out.
Every leftist protest is like this nowadays, which is why I keep saying that they don't care about any of these issues Every protest is the start of the Revolution - fixing the issue doesn't matter, it's all just a stepping stone to utopia, somehow x.com/fascismheckler…
@SwannMarcus89 The “protest” are revealing they are using this as a crutch to advance their real goal. Cause a socialist revolution which turns off people
This has been driving me crazy and there are two big issues here: 1. Many leftoids don't care about Palestine, as you can see by how they didn't care Gaza would be bombed while celebrating Oct. 7 2. Their rhetoric about "genocide" has deluded them into thinking it can't get worse
One of the best reasons to support Biden is that Trumps election would be disastrous for the Palestinians I dont understand how anyone who sincerely cares about them can play this "oh who cares!" bit
