I'm sorry, what?

I personally like it and think it works. It’s a very sticky song. “the watusi…the twist…”

How segregated vs. integrated are face and body representations in human visual cortex?

In this new preprint with @kathadobs.bsky.social, we use DNNs and fMRI to find out.

A New Wharton Study on AI Warns of a Growing Problem: Cognitive Surrender Casual users should pay special attention

“The most extreme form of cognitive surrender is what the authors call “autopilot,” which is basically automating yourself.”

Absolutely shameful. Four years of war and the United States sends nobody to mark it.

One curious thing about philosophy is that we had an internal MeToo a few years before actual MeToo, sparked by a blog called "What's it like to be a woman in philosophy". During that anonymous websites were set up by resentful young men to complain, and this exact sentiment was common and explicit.

Pace of ecology drives the tempo of visual perception across the animal kingdom - Nature Ecology & Evolution Using phylogenetic comparative methods across 237 species from disparate phyla, the authors show that species with fast-paced ecologies have higher temporal resolution of perception.

Oh dear me. Having found nothing, they pin hope on a result that is significant “before adjusting for multiple comparisons”. People: this adjustment is not optional. It’s clear nobody will ever give up on this quest.

It's pretty impressive how the Admin and Men's Olympic hockey teams have managed to erase all the men's hockey goodwill that Heated Rivalry fostered in the space of like, 5 minutes.

What Elon Has Done Elon Musk's destruction of USAID has faded from public consciousness in America, despite leaving death and destruction in its wake.

“the largest act of mass murder of this decade, and of this century so far, was not perpetrated by militaries or militias, but by the world's richest man in Washington D.C.'s Eisenhower Executive Office Building.” @mckay4senate.bsky.social www.liberalcurrents.com/what-elon-ha...

I romanticize France in the worst way. I follow the news, understand there are serious problems. But I've loved France for a long time, well before my first visit when I was 30.
My parents loved French food and I had some very good examples in NY and FL restaurants as a kid. That must be the origin.

It has been far too long since Heather and I have been in France; I think the last time was July 2014.
We ate here and it was very charming and delicious.

One comment about covers - I'm not the world's biggest Lenny Kravitz fan or anything but it is kinda hard to imagine a better cover of American Woman than his...

Johnny: Tossing all these satellites and shuttles out into the cosmos. What do they think they're gonna find up there that they can't find down here? They think if they piss high enough, they're gonna come across the monkey with the beard and the crap ideas? And it's, like, "Oh! There you are, captain! Are you busy? Because I've got a few fundamental questions for you." Are you with me? Sophie: Yeah. 'Cause let's face it, right? What are rockets? I mean, they're just big, metal pricks. You know, I mean, the bastards aren't satisfied with fuckin' the Earth up. They've gotta fuck space and all.

One of my favorite movies (inexplicably, to be honest) is Mike Leigh's Naked (1993). I find many of the ideas - and quotes - in the film to be relevant today.

These read like updated Roadrunner (Modern Lovers) lyrics.

We argue that the strange arrangement of cells and circuits is the consequence of a reduction of our visual systems to a simple median eye in our ancient filter-feeding ancestors.

I use Testable. It's just a text parameter-reading program. Testable offers a variety of forms types, block randomization, and I use it because it is the simplest thing out there by which I can collect RT.

It's disappointing especially to see this from Jack Hughes, who famously went against the grain to embrace Pride Night, and whose mother (Ellen Weinberg-Hughes) was a member of the U.S. Women's National Hockey Team in the 1990s.

"A man free of patriarchy is a man who has found not only every woman's humanity, but one who has at last discovered his own. The actual path to liberation for lonely men is feminism."

Right fuckin'on!!!

It never ceases to confound me just how many folks think the point of essays is to provide teachers with essays. That teachers just like, collect them, or need them for sustenance or something. Rather than the point of them being the *actual fucking act of learning how to think about shit*

Spot on
