Here's a tl;dr (though still admittedly quite long) for the core elements of Slow Roads. I'll see if I can get something with pictures up next weekend 😉anslo.medium.com/slow-roads-tl-…

i have been thinking about scale in this space exploration game (which is very linked to time). how large should a mountain be, a continent, a planet? what exactly is the value of slowness and empty space, and how does one cultivate a space for that?

Julia Ducournau's #Titane is the psychopathic lovechild of David Cronenberg’s “Crash” and Shinya Tsukamoto’s “Tetsuo: The Iron Man." It's by far the wildest film at #Cannes2021. Read @davidehrlich's review: bit.ly/36vhJIq

I have no advance info on who’s getting TIME Magazine Person of the Year. But this is who it needs to be. And it’s not even close. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

If there's a 269-269 tie then maybe it's a simulation. Just kidding. I think.


If they hold the next debates over Zoom at least they’ll be able to use the mute feature 😂

Tonight, @FLOTUS and I tested positive for COVID-19. We will begin our quarantine and recovery process immediately. We will get through this TOGETHER!

In interview with @realDonaldTrump, @CBS_Herridge asked the president why he thinks African Americans are still dying at the hands of law enforcement in this country. His answer is revealing. See more on @cbseveningnews and @cbsthismorning.

China wasn’t in charge of the US response. You were. Every other country got it under control, but you were too busy pretending it wasn’t real. That’s on you.

This graph might be the most damning data ever concerning Trump's leadership. We are a superpower, one of the richest countries in the world, with some of the best scientists, innovators, entrepreneurs, universities, army, government officials in the world. And yet ... this:

Robert Williams wrongly arrested in front of family due to a false facial recognition match; 30hrs detained. As a black man accosted by police the outcome could have been fatal & still the consequences of face misidentification are indelible& irreversible nytimes.com/2020/06/24/tec…

You *cannot* predict criminality from biometric data. Such an important, beautifully argued letter - may it travel far! Congrats to @theodorajewell @chels_bar @ethicsoftech @bethmsemel @SonjaSolomun and all who made this happen. medium.com/@CoalitionForC…

You look at the polls and think "he can't win." But Trump's path to victory doesn't depend on persuading Americans. It depends on voter suppression, mass disinformation, foreign interference, and unabashed use of executive branch power to shape events, and perceptions, this fall.

Sadly, I'm becoming convinced that #COVID is not far from taking on the characteristics of #gunviolence. US will endure much higher, persistent negative effects from something that other countries have solved; we'll normalize it and convince ourselves nothing can be done.

Reading this whole thread is a great introduction into why social science is hard, why making predictions about human behavior is hard, and why we could all use to be more honest and transparent about our open questions in our research.

New study in @PNASNews on MOOC persistence- 2.5 years, 3 institutions (@harvard, @mit, @stanford), 250 courses, over *250,000* participants. New insights on scale, global achievement gaps, open science, & personalization. A Thread 1/ pnas.org/content/early/… (@whynotyet, @emyeom)

This is probably the most devastating visualization I’ve ever seen about the difference between Obama and Trump. Obama was far from perfect, but at least young people of color got to be in a room with him ever

“Stop treating us the way we treat black people.”

WATCH 🚨 New York police boss Mike O'Meara went off on the media today: "Stop treating us like animals and thugs and start treating us with some respect ... Our legislators abandoned us. The press is vilifying us. It's disgusting."



The irony

“Stop treating us the way we treat black people.”
