@MrHWM I was in dupont circle in DC and saw a guy leaving a coffee shop. Instantly “he’s from Montana.” Sure enough, he was carrying a campaign material for a statewide race.

@jeremyfreese On this one, I wondered if it wasn't someone (e.g. an RA) monitoring the survey's randomizations and question logic who intentionally put in ridiculous answers so the testing obs could be stripped out later...then oops. Even in the inside job respondent, why do that poorly?

@allafarce I occasionally make a soup with them In the vein of Alice Waters’ green garlic soup. Sauté a giant pile in oil or butter until soft not brown. Add stock. Purée. Garnish with charred onion and croutons. Blend in potatoes for something heartier and creamier.

There’s a mockingbird that spends the better part of each day trying to find a way in to our living room. It isn’t slamming into windows and hurting itself, just flutters around checking each window and chattering.

This tweet from a great thread on how and when to RCT is where I start when I get asked for and RCT design. Also highly rec small experiments before the big experiment

[kevin starr @mulagostarr]

3) get to a great design. get 2nd and 3rd opinions. read the @CT_Bergstrom "calling bullshit" book. a bad study is worse than nothing. it hurts everyone. if it's a bad design, it's your fault. whining about it later rarely does any good.

These job-training programs work, and may show others the way, writes @SteveLohr @nytimes. 1/3 https://t.co/5F3fSJFUBo

Thrilled to hear that @USDA expanded SNAP online shopping to over 1200 stores.

This is significant because in 2020, only 35k SNAP households shopped online. In July 2022 - over 3 MILLION SNAP households shopped online.

One could do an awful lot of good in the world just covering the "what something is" beat. So many opinions start from a woefully wrong conception of who experiences a thing and how they experience it...even among the sorta informed

[Matt Darling 🌐🏗️ @besttrousers]

There really is a lot of underprovided short briefs like this. 2-3 page explainers about what something is and why it's Bad/Good.

[Kumar Garg @KumarAGarg]

A great example of @ezraklein "out of control processes." Here is OIRA asking an agency to wait a year to get public comment on....whether it can get public feedback on its services. https://t.co/QMXJdDpf1f

A new national advertising campaign by @OpptyatWork will seek to influence employers to look beyond the four-year degree in hiring, with the message that a “paper ceiling” holds back half the U.S. workforce, reports @paulfain at The Job. https://t.co/a3P4RZa5SG

@clintkey makes an important note that "people live full lives and are not just program participants." When we design programs, communications, and environments, we must account for those factors.
