@GorillaPsyc and @EvershedJo: why are you lying? "You can’t create anything a novel tasks (sic!) with @tstbl"? Seriously? I understand copying our communication style and features (that's a compliment, after all), but lying? gorilla.sc/testable-alter…

@mbanissy @davidjpitcher I think this house should be passed down to someone you know 😁

@davidjpitcher What can I say, the former owner…. 😁 Thanks mate! And if you happen to be selling any houses near Bristol then let me know please 👍🏽 Let’s try to catch up soon

One more bit of news, I’m delighted to say that I’ll be joining @BristolUniPsych as Head of Psychological Science in January. I’m really looking forward to work with some fantastic new colleagues and students. Such a great group of people, I’m very lucky to be joining the team

@diegoareinero @vlasceanu_mada @jayvanbavel I'll have a poster at Psychonomics on data quality from MTurk, Prolific, Minds, happy to share more details on methods/results. Poster still work in progress: dropbox.com/s/inbzf9y0yz6y…

Aside from MTurk, Prolific, Cloud Research, Dynata, Forthright, Lucid, Qualtrics Panels, Momentive, YouGov Direct, are there other common platforms for online data collection? @vlasceanu_mada @jayvanbavel & I are working on an empirical paper comparing various platforms 🧵

Our paper is out in PNAS! This project was one of the biggest reasons for my move to the US. Great to see it published. Best face matching performance achieved when humans and machines work together. @UTDallasNews @BBSutdallas @usnistgov @davidwhitephd pnas.org/content/early/…

@phillipsjs Congrats! I don't know how I missed this news, just saw it now when checking your profile :) You could hardly found a better place than Dartmouth, I miss that place (and Cambridge, of course)

It's official: I am thrilled to announce that I'll be starting as (the first!) assistant professor in the Cognitive Science Program at @dartmouth! I could not be more excited to join the folks at Dartmouth and help build the next generation of cognitive scientists - stay tuned!!

@ActuaryByDay Haha, tempting :)

@rezlescu Ever read about Alberta Martin? Last surviving US Civil War widow who only died in 2004. Married one of her grandad’s mates. news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/ame…

Can someone explain to me why we need investment people at USS? I contribute every year 26% of my salary (8%+18%) to receive 1.33% of that salary, per year, when I retire. I'm expected to retire at 67 and die at 82, so have a pension for 15 years. #uss #USSstrike
