@BrianCAlbrecht Yes, but why would you think about publishing while you're fishing...

[Jeff Denning @JeffDenning]

@BrianCAlbrecht Also if i publish in a finance journal

[Jeff Denning @JeffDenning]

@BrianCAlbrecht I will never publish there, but if I ever did this is all that I would play in my house for a month. Congrats!

@florianederer @johnjhorton He's right

[Jeff Denning @JeffDenning]

@florianederer @sndurlauf @ikuziemko I'm not very excited about it either I will admit. Maybe I'll get the book, but I've tried to get into it several times without success.

Nil nil is just a tough sell

103 years ago today, Texans struck oil on university lands. Santa Rita No. 1 now rests on the Forty Acres as a monumental symbol of the discovery that shaped us. It reminds us to carry forward the ambition and determination that define the Longhorn spirit. Hook ’em!

is it really too cringe to add an "open to work" badge on LinkedIn?

PICARD: Data, shields up

DATA: Brilliant! Shields can reduce damage we sustain. Not immunity. Not hubris. Just prudence. It's not precaution—it's strategy.

WORF: HULL BREACHES ON NINE DECKS

DATA: Here's what happened: you told me to raise shields, and I didn't

@asymmetricinfo @tracewoodgrains As noted elsewhere the alternative was Crockett.

I think many primary voters preferred him to Crockett genuinely rather than out of a calculation about the general

[Jeff Denning @JeffDenning]

@asymmetricinfo @tracewoodgrains I think many people on the left in Texas genuinely like Talarico, and not for strategic reasons. There is an argument that primary voters should be strategic, but I don't think they are.

@timothyjlayton Just confirming, I think in that world we likely are still different than humanities in important ways. I suspect business will retain its value but I'm not very confident in that prediction

Source: Does UT give out too many A's? It's fueling concerns about academic rigor

[Jeff Denning @JeffDenning]

2/3rds of grades at UT Austin are A's

@paulnovosad It seems not crazy to me to have the econ students take the GRE math but I don't know enough about that test to weigh in

[Jeff Denning @JeffDenning]

@paulnovosad I'm not sure why they do this or what the constraints are. It's just a weird problem to have a test that is screening for English PhDs, Econ, History, Engineering etc (I actually don't know which sciences use GRE primarily instead of the subject tests)

[Jeff Denning @JeffDenning]

@paulnovosad It is strange, but a wide variety of programs use the Math GRE including many whose applicants are less quantitatively trained...
