25.01.2026 14:37 β π 3 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0I read your piece as arguing that humanitarian/liberal ethics guide pro-im. advocacy and that communitarian ethics do not. To me the question is: can you study immigration without explicitly stating your ethical starting point (ESP)? If your answer is "No," then how would define your own ESP?

Anyone saw what Andy Hall did with Claude (on X)? Very cool!
Looks like AI can:
1) become the (neutral) replication police (replicates prior results + runs a subset of low-hanging fruit extensions including out of sample rep)
2) encourage theory and design innovation in surveys
Count me in!
"Communautarisme" back then used to implicitly mean "anglo multiculturalism." Now it seems to mean "non-French" , a form of inclusion/exclusion rhetoric that smells far right IMHO, especially when mentioned alongside accusation of "islamisme".

To hear these words used by a journalist paid by public funds is shocking.

Fine "encourage" . I meant it as "here is a piece of infrastructure that helps us collectively do good research" I have become a big-fan of PAPs *for experiments* and wish I treated my code better. But point taken: the experience of research as "we are in this together" is not a journal.

Once I asked for the code & my main thought was "they are a much better coder than me, I have no clue how this connects to the main text". Maybe requiring comments to code would help? (would improve how analysis is described too?)
