My hunch is that this is the winning avenue. That and: just more time to do other things than just acting in a daily routine and trying to survive.

What about quality though? If predictions about quantity are correct what then will really stick out is quality. So the question becomes how to use AI for „better“ research.

Most AI predictions are about quantity. That might be happening. But there is nothing new about it. „More“ has been with us at least since the 80s.

I for one actually have more time to read stuff, think about it, reflect than ever before in my career.

I‘m very much looking forward for all these hot takes on AI to materialize.

Right now I see ever more substacks and tweets on AI than actual new research popping up.

Maybe what we actually gain with AI is time to think and reflect. At least that’s what currently seems to be happening.

Heizung und Motor sind jetzt wieder Privatsache - aber für billigen Kraftstoff soll natürlich der Staat sorgen…

My take on the partisan expressive responding literature is now in print. Open access: doi.org/10.1017/S000...

The critique of unmeasured confounding is often levied in a lazy/broad way. It is trivially true in any observational study. But if the critic can't think of a plausible such confounder and posit a reasonable direction/magnitude of its bias then they're not doing productive science.

Thx for having me! Looking very much forward to this:

I have been trying to summarize social psychology research on anti-immigrant sentiment for 3 weeks now. While I can summarize families of results based on types of designs, I still struggle to summarize the theory used to make sense of results. Anybody has a clearly written piece they can recommend?

thx!

Zu echt. Hagel fand 2018, es gäbe "schlimmere Termine für einen 29jährigen Abgeordneten *grins*" als eine Realschulklasse mit 80% "Mädchen" zu besuchen. Von Eva, die höchstens 16 war, mit "braunem Haar und rehbraunen Augen", war er anscheinend auch angetan.

Immer schade, wenn das Bild so passt

This is crazy. It would have taken years! of work:

Want to know why state agents carry out brutal repression — or participate in illegal coups?

Our new book "Making a Career in Dictatorship" provides answers — it just got published by @academic.oup.com:

I'm not dropping the name but you can guess who I'm thinking of...

This is already happening. Aarhus pol sci stopped teaching stata, license sure will follow. Many German unis stopped stata licenses.

This is done. Staying with stata is high risk now.

Die Grundstruktur der Rede: Wer die AfD verbieten will, wolle "rechte" Politik generell verbieten und sei damit selbst der Demokratiefeind. Wir kennen diese Argumentation, man nennt sie "Strohmann". Art. 21 GG fragt nicht, ob eine Partei links oder rechts ist. Es geht um die Verfassungswidrigkeit.

Exactly what he says:

But you do have an AI subscription? Also: many unis already started implanting own AIs, no?

Also: ppl a) need to know about IVF (correlated with education/social status?) b) usually self-paid?

But: IVF might also mean these women tried to get pregnant for a long time already.

Pretty clever idea to get at the selection effects into motherhood. Must read:

“I long for the days when a midlife crisis for men meant getting a motorbike and a leather jacket, not trying to get elected to indulge alt right fantasies about ensuring women were pregnant as soon as they were fertile and then didn’t go to university"
