The future is big, life is short, words are vague, governance lags technology, identity is distracting.

Excited to share study @LarochelleMarc @darshaksanghavi, others & I did comparing effectiveness of different #opioid use disorder treatments. Bottom line- only methadone or buprenoprhine associated w/ reduced #overdose at 3 and 12 months jamanetwork.com/journals/jaman…

Reading applications for PhD program
TIL:
Punjab University lists your *parents’* names on the transcripts and degree
e.g.
"Jane Brown, son/daughter of John Brown and Josephine Brown, has attained the degree of Master of Arts in Economics”

Additional identifiers warranted by the absence of online verification/ authentication of transcripts, and a high probability of multiple students with the same full name in a class. In some universities, date of birth too is mentioned for the same reason.

"Across 4 studies, people consistently indicated greater support for social action to correct the gender imbalance in male [vs female] dominated fields … discrimination, stereotyping … seen as a larger factor in women's underrepresentation" than for men. blogs.scientificamerican.com/beautiful-mind…

There are low status male dominated jobs and there is very little push for gender equality in them.

"occupations in which men are extremely underrepresented (nursing, elementary education) were viewed as lower in status, and therefore less deserving of attention and social action towards change" That is, it is mainly about raising the status of women who complain.

From what I understand, Harvey Weinstein's ability to extract sexual favours was more to do with the social cabal/network in that industry. One high-person's bad word can end your career. To be fair, it's possible to buy prostitutes with money; Harvey's case used more status.

"If we get a reputation as the people who fall for every panic about AI, including the ones that in retrospect turn out to be kind of silly, will we eventually cry wolf one too many times and lose our credibility before crunch time?"

Standard decision theory is VERY well understood & accepted by academics. Yet most orgs find many excuses to avoid using it for top decisions. They'd better achieve ends (including $) if they did, but execs win political battles via more flexible methods. overcomingbias.com/2020/02/decisi…

Severe testing bottlenecks have been well documented and a spokesman for the company producing testing kits recently said their production rate is 8k/day.
“Confirmed cases” is potentially a dangerously misleading number imo.

That's hilarious, in how uselessly wasteful it would be. Pure security theatre.

These short inserts do indeed exist in #nCoV2019 relative to its closest sequenced relative (BetaCoV/bat/Yunnan/RaTG13/2013, seen here nextstrain.org/groups/blab/sa…). However, a simple BLAST of such short sequences shows match to a huge variety of organisms. No reason to conclude HIV. twitter.com/biorxivpreprin… pic.twitter.com/mUfxwB6GsP

Everyone wants to blame Mark Zuckerberg for polarization and fake news. But if social media were fragmented into a thousand smaller companies instead of a few big ones, wouldn't polarization and fake news be worse?

Being an adult is like being a kid, except when kids pick a game to play, they don't think they have to keep playing it for the next forty years.
