A common source of disappointment is recency bias: weighing the last week more heavily than the last year.

Zooming in on the immediate past magnifies slumps. Zooming out farther reveals upward slopes.

Progress is rarely visible at a snapshot in time. It unfolds over a lifetime.

@ShimminyKricket This statement brings me back to this video I came across by Dr Gabor Mate explaining why this isn’t the case.

@AnnalisaBurgos @CivilBeat @HawaiiNewsNow Looking forward to it!

“1 in 6 people living in Hawaiʻi are Filipino. We want our readers to know more about the country and the people from there.

“To do that, let’s hire a Korean American, Polynesian dance aficionado from Massachusetts who visited the Philippines once while in transit to Hawaiʻi.”

[Annalisa Burgos @AnnalisaBurgos]

@jubay @CivilBeat In other news, I’m working on a new series for @HawaiiNewsNow sharing our many untold Filipino-Hawaii stories so look out for that! I’m Fil-Am, worked in the Philippines for 3 years and understand Tagalog and Bisaya. 🇵🇭

Of course, this is nothing new. But always disappointing and a disservice to the community it purports to serve and be a part of. https://t.co/zKCQNAwbTo

[Jason Ubay @jubay]

This isn’t about any one reporter. But how does this do justice to what the community deserves? How can you report on a very specific ethnic and geographic group and hire someone outside that community and maintain credibility? Who is this for?

Putting on my News side hat … Dr. James Ireland of the City’s Emergency Services Dept gets emotional talking about an ambulance that caught on fire or exploded transporting a patient to Castle Hospital. An EMT who was in the back of the vehicle is critical, and the patient died.

[Jason Ubay @jubay]

The tyranny of pedestrians:

“He said many people regularly park on unimproved shoulders and installing sidewalks is often controversial.

“If I was to announce I was putting sidewalks in Manoa, there would be a revolution,” he said. https://t.co/IjeO2pYnLG
