“No se trata de hablar,
ni tampoco de callar:
se trata de abrir algo
entre la palabra y el silencio.

Quizá cuando transcurra todo,
también la palabra y el silencio,
quede esa zona abierta
cómo esperanza hacia atrás.

Nassim Taleb has written a devastatingly strong critique of IQ, but since he writes at such a technical level, his most powerful insights are being missed.

Let me explain just one of them. 🧵

🧵The Neurobiology of Depression

1/8

“A unified theory of depression conceptualises MDD as a matrix of genetic, epigenetic, and environmental factors that interact with personality vulnerabilities that predispose an individual to information processing biases, stress reactivity, and belief formation that precipitate pathophysiological mechanisms across molecular, cellular, circuit, and behavioural levels.”

This was the first of several ongoing studies in this new area for us - limited by its cross-sectional nature (despite Sara's careful matching) as well as its lack of biological measures. Still, we are very (very) excited about where this could lead! https://t.co/nx4FyVGZ8w

Have we been thinking too narrowly?
"Beyond mechanism – extending our concepts of causation in neuroscience"
Imo quite an important paper by Mitchell and Potter calling for much broader view of causation.
