This will be my last post on Twitter. I will miss Twitter, but I have to find space orthogonal (or antithetical) to Elon Musk. See this Instagram post by @drdanacrawford

Finally! This is the version of record; it's also the version to read, thanks to the review process at eLife. The finding was out of reach before macaque Neuropixels. @eLife: Direct observation of the neural computations underlying a single decision

This photo on the National Mall captivated the country decades ago. The real story behind it remained a mystery — until now.

This article made me so sad and furious. The graphics, the writing, the family tensions, magic (moth), and Sisyphean struggle made me feel this family's grief as my own. A Grieving Mother. A Famous Uncle. An Unlikely Crusade.

One of the great things about the WNYC centennial is the reëmergence of Sara Fishko. I miss her intelligent, funny, @FishkoFiles. They are pieces of art. Silence is my favorite, but I would binge every one of them.

Thanks to highly competent reviewers, this is a more rigorous improved version. I hope colleagues consider the counterfactual scenario in Discussion. Direct observation of the neural computations underlying a single decision.[wrong link in earlier post].

I was hoping Trung Phan would have mentioned Kerry James Marshall's MET retrospective, which he titled "Mastry," KJM drops the 't' to sever the connection to slavery. He shared many relevant insights. The life secret Jerry Seinfeld learned from Esquire

Spot on! (…ignoring the offensive false equivalency in ¶3 parenthetical). The only question is when. The Kamala Harris calculus: What do Democrats gain or lose?

Saddened by the passing of Donald Sutherland. My favorite DS performance is the wedding scene in the movie adaptation of Jules Feiffer's Little Murders—my favorite scene in my favorite movie.

Albert Tootie Heath should have turned 89 today. I miss him terribly. Behind the silliness and irreverence, there be a wise mensch. Love to B and the extended family.

Ooops. This is a different paper. Also worthy of tweeting about. I got confused because our revised single-trial drift-diffusion paper went back to eLife a few days ago. You can see that on bioRxiv.

This is a substantially revised and improved preprint, thanks to quality peer review at eLIfe. The new eLife model is beginning to grow on me. @eLife.
