Another idiotic move. Why would anyone who is not in the business of doing tax returns oppose people getting a pre-populated return. Could be at least 75% of Americans. In civilized countries you can file your taxes by text message!

Elon Musk is now bragging about getting rid of the team that put together the 'Direct File' tax filing system, which allows citizens to easily file their taxes for free. Direct File is a big target of the for-profit tax prep industry including corporations like Intuit and H&R Block.

Do a benefit cost analysis of US AID and you will be hard-pressed to find another agency that does so much good per dollar spent. We should be grateful to people like Atul who has taken time from his medical practice to help the poor, sick and starving around the world.

The shut down of USAID and its activities that reach hundreds of millions is already harming humanity and America. foxnews.com/video/63682071…

Its been going on for years....We wrote Dan, I believe in 2006 when we read an NIH research talking about him presenting this (our) result. He responded that it was a misunderstanding and clarified it. That's a long standing misunderstanding now on National TV.

so many Twitter bios say "opinions are my own" instead of "opinions are shaped by norms, values, and ideologies imparted by family, education, peers, media, and culture"

Thanks Dilip. Interesting that models are now au courant if they are AI/Machine Learning, but simple linear models (and improper models) are applicable where these more data hungry models are not....
Dilip Soman 🇨🇦@dilipsoman

@dggoldst As a close second I'd nominate @CFCamerer and @ProfEricJohnson (1991), The Process-Performance Paradox in Expert Judgment, or Klayman and Ha (1987), Confirmation, Disconfirmation....
