A friend of mine lost his dad to conspiracy theories, so he tried something new—he bet him $10,000 that his 10 craziest conspiracies wouldn't come true.

The best (and hardest part): it's all recorded for us in a 3-episode podcast on @NPR's Embedded, titled Alternate Realities. I just binged all 90 minutes, both because reporter Zack Mack's a friend, and because the COVID & Trump era have caused a fair share of conspiracies in the Appleby family.

If you have political differences with parents or loved ones who believe in cover-ups and Jan 6 actors or stolen elections, you've gotta give this a listen. It's not only a heartbreaking story about a father losing touch with family, but includes conversations with experts as to why & how these mindsets happen.

❤️ How to be the CFO for Social Capital

[Thomas H. Lee, MD @ThomasHLeeMD]

@NateSilver538 Ow, wow. I have been waiting for this update

[Helen Bevan @HelenBevan]

High levels of ‘social capital’ (the value gained when people work well together) create the conditions for high performance in health & care. The evaluation of 5 NHS organisations that undertook whole system transformation showed that social capital is more important than human capital (the skills, knowledge & experience people possess) when it comes to improving performance. Now, research newly published in @HarvardBiz concludes that social capital is at least, or more important, than human capital OR financial capital for high performance in healthcare organisations.
If we want to improve performance & productivity, we need to get serious about:
- understanding social capital (relational co-ordination & social network analysis)
- providing the time, space, focus & leadership support for relationships & connections
- building it into our improvement routines & nurturing & measuring its growth as a key component of our performance strategy.

@charlesornstein @marshallallen I am stunned and so sad to hear this. I met Marshall when he was a fellow on Commonwealth Fund program for journalists, and admired him for all the reasons in this obituary. I also liked him tremendously. He could joke about his unusual path. Terrible loss.

[Bob Wachter @Bob_Wachter]

What a terrible loss. Marshall was tough but always fair. He simply wanted to make healthcare better, safer, and more equitable. RIP.

@LeemoreDafny @SuzanneDelbanco Suzanne was truly a force for good. In all of her varied, great phases, that was consistent. This is sad news, indeed.

[Leemore Dafny @LeemoreDafny]

I am deeply saddened to learn that @SuzanneDelbanco, a pioneer in pushing for employer-led transformation of the US healthcare sector, has passed. Her voice will not be forgotten.

[Angela Duckworth @angeladuckw]

The greatest psychologist in the world died today. He was also the greatest gentleman--gracious and kind, quick to apologize, loathe to take credit. The world will never forget Danny Kahneman: https://t.co/KaaoSjv93Y
