My good friend, and our colleague, Will Dunlop died over the weekend. In "Grieving the Only Way I Know How," I wrote a bit about what Will means, and how I am working through his death. It may be helpful for some of you, for grieving Will or anyone else. https://t.co/iDmeISpe6j

@lgpcappiello And just to be clear, this is freaking amazing!!!

[Mike Dooley (he/him) @maesterdooley]

@lgpcappiello This is why we are friends

Is this a form of dunning-kruger?

Now that the '20-21 job market is 'officially' over with the reset of the wiki, I re-ran my web-scraping code to see how badly the pandemic affected the market. The result: tenure-track job postings dropped from 769 in '19-20 to 440 in '20-'21. See graph for breakdown by area.

@hioberman I'm starting to learn python. This checks out

And by "mean", I'm saying it is aggressive and insulting

Started learning violin last week. Not to brag, but I can now play a mean hot cross buns

@Project_TIER is making great efforts toward helping researchers generate more readable code

[Dr. Jessie Sun @JessieSunPsych]

Ditto with empirical papers. Even if code and materials are open, please don’t make readers dig thorough all the supplemental materials just to figure out the basic details of what was going on!

[Mike Dooley (he/him) @maesterdooley]

@gmacdonalduoft @JessieSunPsych Are there any interesting meta analyses that use date of data collection as a variable?

[Mike Dooley (he/him) @maesterdooley]

@JessieSunPsych My lab has a habit of including the date because we study yearly events (e.g. bar exam, academic job market). However, always makes me nervous that a reviewer might think my data too "old".

Me no cry because cookie is finished. Me smile because cookie happened.

This feels about right. I need to update my conversational topics.

@lgpcappiello The endless cycle

CDC also mentioned that it's okay to call someone "buddy" or "friend" if you can't remember their name after a year of lockdown. I don't think that's getting enough attention, but I understand.

[Mike Dooley (he/him) @maesterdooley]

It is incredible how far we've come to be able to announce this

Excited about #SIPS2021? Here's the conference program! https://t.co/lrpdViYOhW

[Brighton_Repro_T @repro_t]

The Society for Improving Psychological Science has a conference (remote of course) Tiny fees, and includes sessions non-Psychologists would love too (e.g "How to start a revolution": if you are interested in bringing "improving..." movement to your discipline)
