The man just never learns. He might as well endorse John Kasich for Ohio senator

Engzell et al. (2021) examine the effects of school closures using data from the Netherlands. They find either a significant negative learning loss, a moderate negative learning loss, or no learning gain from online learning. This is true across all income levels. The negative learning losses are most pronounced among students of low SES.

Several results stand out from the meta-analysis. We find a statistically significant negative relationship between ethnic diversity and social trust across all studies. The relationship is stronger for trust in neighbours, and when studied in more local contexts. https://www.amren.com/news/2019/10/ethnic-diversity-and-social-trust-a-narrative-and-meta-analytical-review/

Charles Murray linked this on his Twitter today. It’s very thorough

Turns out that subjecting your brain to 150V of electricity might not be safe after all

500 views on my last study and not a single new subscriber. Many such cases! Sad!

Hunter is so dumb lmao

Good news. Frampton et al. (2021) examine the new covid-19 strain (B.1.1.7) in the UK and although they find that it spreads at higher rates than the original strain, patients don’t die at higher rates nor do they have worse outcomes after contracting it.

You can’t question who immigrants will vote for when they come here but you can openly call for cleansing against right-wingers and be embraced by a somewhat mainstream news outlet. Makes sense

Good criticism of Bird (2021) where he claims that although Europeans and sub-Saharan Africans have different alleles at genes associated with educational attainment, these differences correspond to small differences in cognitive ability. In fact, they are more consistent with genetic drift than with natural selection (his claim)

CDC surveillance report among 1608 Tránnies finds that 42% of Tránnies surveyed tested positive for HIV.

HIV prevalence was 65% among American Indian/Alaska Natives, 20% among Asians, 62% among Black/African Americans, 35% among Hispanics or Latinas, 17% among Native Hawaiian/ other Pacific Islanders, 17% among whites, and 38% among participants who reported multiple races.

Dodging the race and IQ debate for almost 4 years now

Fentanyl Floyd’s lawyer should be writing kids’ books instead of practicing law with closing statements like this lmao

Today is a dark day for the American justice system. An innocent man was convicted of murder because of fear of retaliation, a biased jury, and biased witnesses. Anyone who respects the rule of law should be concerned. I hope Derek Chauvin exhausts every last appeal opportunity he has

In a 6-3 opinion released today in Jones v. Mississippi, Kavanuagh pens in the majority opinion that life sentences for minors are completely up to the discretion of the judge, and sentencers do not have to determine whether the minor is likely to commit another crime in the future.

E.g. “Derek Chauvin, who is white, was convicted of murder.”
