So many congratulations to my sister ⁦@AparnaShewak⁩ on the official release day of her new book! She’s Unlikeable: And Other Lies That Bring Women Down

The credibility revolution was good; now we need a statistical power revolution

Huge L for the think tank industry that we didn't manage to attract him as a think tank CEO.

There are many things I like about living in TX (exhibit a: delicious taco trucks everywhere), and then there are the other things 🙄

It’s very important to distinguish between the business of slavery, which was incredibly profitable and a large source of US wealth, and the economics of slavery, which must account for the cost of enslavement to those who were enslaved.

Amazingly, colleges market on the basis of rankings improvements, yet the constant formula changing makes year-to-year comparisons meaningless. Colleges market on the cornerstone of these measures' statistical invalidity. 5/6

The Child Tax Credit expansion not being renewed is my best example that evidence is not enough to move policy. #poverty https://t.co/gQXnjD29ao

This website is pretty much a dream come true. Replicating this tool and creating meta analysis on demand raises an interesting research Q: under which conditions do policy makers use it and to what extent does it affect policy formation?

Imagine earning a 600% percent return on something yet not spending more on it....

I told a colleague that logistic regression is AI and they got mad at me, so I made a chart. Find yourself. I am "Tinder is AI".

Thinking about the fine arts students that just performed here at the #HISD convocation- I cannot explain the irony that we just sat through; a fine arts performance for a district that now doesn’t value the work of the fine arts teachers that put the kids up on stage.

TT/Tenured professors do not lose anything by adding undergraduate and grad students to papers that they helped with (organizing, lit search, data collection). I do not understand this reluctance to give authorship.

Friendly PSA for my #ASA2023 pals: in-flight air filtration doesn’t live up to its hype 🥴 Even with #eris running rampant, the 3 masks on my flight were 2 more than I expected to see. Safe travels!

Really looking forward to this book release from @JennieBrand1

Nearly 10,000 new C0VlD cases last week in Texas, a state doing hardly any monitoring or data collection at all. That’s a 72% increase in documented cases in the last week. Some experts think we’re catching 1-in-20 cases right now. Your move: 😷.

Discrimination is not a single, objective phenomenon. To make inferences on it, or to form an appropriate policy response to it, requires taking a normative stance of what should be conditioned on. Far too many debates in policy, academia, and the law fail to take such a stance

and statistically significant coefficient on the interaction of good and powerful but you did with Rodney.” So well said, Scott. May we all be blessed to become a little more Rodney-like. (2/2)
