"I've been in a thousand arguments over this topic. I've won them all, and I've convinced no one." @amostversky1 on the Hot Hand Fallacy. Also all of us on twitter about anything always.

@cityofhamilton That pink curve is just wrong: we are well below the dashed line, not just barely missing it: here's a real graph from the Province from May 5th:

@shaw_sandy Nice. And yikes. Looking at the bent heads & exposed napes, it makes me wonder: why don't military uniforms include scarves?

Hyper-local Pride: by 9am our whole block was shovelled, by homeowners and renters, student or otherwise. #snowvember #HamOnt #HamOntSnow

@Janoallen I agree about the pointless wastefulness and educational misdirection of EQAO. The article seems willfully blind in some ways though: to a large degree, the scores and the wealth *are* correlated but it's not simple causation. Also: US de-facto segregation is shocking.

Sweet jebuz - I logged into twitter for the first time in two weeks. What the fuck was I thinking?

@OwenJones84 What a scientist actually said: "We find that children whose mothers work are more likely to have increased sedentary behaviour and poorer dietary habits." That's not shaming.

@kittypurrzog No! I love the Jackson 4! They could play and they could sing and they could dress. Just look at the first 30s of this (then stop, because it's not been edited for safety and harm reduction). youtube.com/watch?v=_w2dix…

@seangtait @DaveHeidebrecht @cityofhamilton In all fairness, not a *complete* failure: the King St bridge, for example, has been kept clear and cleared quickly. God help you getting to and from it in bike lanes, but the bridge has been great.

Every single day this week I have come close to being hit on my bike, not due to drivers carelessness, but due to @cityofhamilton's disregard for maintaining bike lanes. 5 years of complaints and no action - only when someone dies do we actually respond. This is shameful #HamOnt

@RichardDawkins It's hard to hear the word "meme" in the Dawkinsian (?) sense any longer. I read this and just imagine semi-chimps trolling their elders for the lols.

Why did we evolve bipedalism? Here’s my memetic theory. Temporary bipedalism is sporadic in primates: an eminently imitable trick, conspicuous demonstration of enviable skill. I think bipedal fashion meme spread culturally, sparking meme/gene (inc sexual selection) coevolution

Is Margaret Mead the most over-rated of scholars? Her rose-tinted Samoa chimed with what we wanted to hear, & she became guru to a generation. Alas, Derek Freeman (The Fateful Hoaxing of Margaret Mead) went back to Samoa, learned the language, & did the anthropology properly!
