We have a new batch of Conductrics INC Select whiskey from @MilamandGreene over here from Texas and alfajores direct from Buenos Aires as prizes and give aways.

@seanjtaylor Yes but you pay for it with the US=>Europe Jet lag

I kind of enjoy the Europe => US jet lag. I fall asleep at like 8pm, get up super early and have lots of time to cook a nice
breakfast and enjoy some peaceful work hours. Not a bad way to spend a week.

tl;dl Privacy by design & customer first philosophy, if not two sides of the same coin, are consistent with each other.
Collecting customer data is akin to asking for something. Customer first means asking from customers only when its a GOOD FAITH attempt to enrich THEIR lives.

"Collect everything" is easy to say. It can even be rationalized. Think a little deeper, though, and the dangers of this mindset are pretty easy to surface. That's the topic of our latest episode with @mgershoff! analyticshour.io/2024/09/03/253…

- people in the queue for the queue
- people who made into *the* queue

I love the difficulty level disclaimers on the agenda. I’m copying that.

@mgershoff @MilamandGreene Online, they're gone in single-digit minutes! I'm officially putting a bug in the ear of an elder to see if he's up for a 30-minute drive to Blanco next week.

These recent slides from Susan Athey and Guido Imbens at NBER are a great recent review of the most valuable data science methods I'm aware of. They cover tons of ground with lots of pointers. conference.nber.org/confer/2024/SI…

Very excited for @RL_Conference this week, but *man* has it been annoying getting to Amherst...

Do you mind if I DM you here on X @thegautamkamath ? If not no worries. Was looking for some links/follow up around a quick question on the dual view of the Diff Privacy and Pearson-Neyman Hypth Testing.

Oh! I have to read. I have been thinking informally about this for Tech/Data Science - that methodological preferences etc. are drawn from individuals who are clustered (in part by being socially connected in the valley via a small set of interconnected VCs)

1. osf.io/preprints/soca… Meta-analyses combine trials that are presumably *independent*. But social relatedness between researchers --> more similar effect estimates, suggesting dependency via same "school of thought"
