Happy to share our new work just out in @PNASNews. The main Q: How much knowledge of an ecological system do we need to anticipate if it is going to collapse? Answer: knowing its structure can take us pretty far! https://t.co/yCc874f9Hg

@getjonwithit What do you mean by verging its physical correctness?

I have made the claim, in a series of recent posts, that science is more like a tree than a linear progression and that economics, and macroeconomics in particular, can get stuck on the wrong branch of the tree.

Pascal Michaillat shared a link to a paper of his with George Akerlof which formalizes that idea.

Here is the abstract of their paper

“We develop a model describing how false paradigms may persist, hindering scientific progress. The model features two paradigms, one describing reality better than the other. Tenured scientists display homophily: they favor tenure candidates who adhere to their paradigm. As in statistics, power is the probability (absent any bias) of denying tenure to scientists adhering to the false paradigm. The model shows that because of homophily, when power is low, the false paradigm may prevail. Then only an increase in power can ignite convergence to the true paradigm. Historical case studies suggest that low power comes either from lack of empirical evidence, or from reluctance to base tenure decisions on available evidence.”

All that is required to get ‘stuck’ in a false paradigm is that the gatekeepers of a science have a slight preference for ideas they agree with and that false idea are hard to falsify.

In a paper just out, I refresh the environmental complexity hypothesis, clarifying the broad role of cognition from an evolutionary perspective: https://t.co/6t5Ijgxx7h

How to judge someone when we have lots of info about their behavior? Our study shows that "looking twice and forgiving once" builds informative reputations that sustain cooperation—no complex norms or public institutions needed🧵👇

"Look twice, forgive once" – a simple and effective way of judging each other's social behavior....

...thanks to new work from Sebastián Michel-Mata et al.

Pierre Cartier died yesterday (h/t @monsoon0). His rumination on Gorthendieck, mathematicians, and mathematics, is worth a read: https://t.co/xbjzEAEjBg

[Jonathan Gorard @getjonwithit]

Short exact sequences are a way of formalizing a simple and ubiquitous observation:
"Object Y is really just object Z, but with some extra structure described by object X."
Or, equivalently:
"If I take object Y and I ignore (mod out by) the structure of object X, I get object Z."

En extremo curiosos los memes que las tias piolinas circulan como infografías.
1- El kg de tortilla está en 20-21.
2- Dólar 16.50
3- En 2018 estaba a 22
Aclarados estos errores, pasemos a destrozar el tonto meme.

The author explains creativity and diversity using causal models, but it certainly helps with getting a good grasp of causal models themselves even if the rest is not your thing.
