New preprint out, in press at American Psychologist, where I explore how malleable cognitive abilities really are, through the lens of popular brief interventions à la mindset, stereotype threat, brain training, video gaming, and the like https://t.co/lQRfnxshE2 1/8

#Fasting isn’t just a trend. 'It taps into a biological system honed over millennia to help humans cope with scarcity,' writes @davidwmoreau, a cognitive neuroscientist at @AucklandUni. But how does skipping a meal (or three) affect our brains?https://t.co/DEDwdeLBEe

Our new meta-analysis in Psychological Bulletin reviewed 70+ studies and found no meaningful difference in thinking performance between fasted and satiated adults.

Claude Shannon did not *merely* invent relative entropy in the 1940s— by 1951 he got all the way up to the idea of an autoregressive language model for English, and very nearly the encoder–decoder structure.
