What do people like Greenblat think a Mamdani administration is going to actually do to Jews?

It’s nice to feel a skosh of hope, y’know?

Absolutely the funniest thread you will read all day.

My post about visiting the Stahl House got deleted and I’m reposting because it’s so beautiful but also because this picture Joel took of me is proving very popular.

I'm getting some pretty solid comments from people in finance (including someone who works at RBC!), which I always like. www.tiktok.com/@schooldaves...

In my entire life how many good NYC mayors have there been? One? Mayyyyybe two?

Neighborhood catchment zones are bad (I would say more so because of their current segregative effects than their terrible origins, but YMMV) www.laschoolreport.com/how-lausd-sc...

I really need to be paying my therapist royalties, because he's now 2/2 in getting me to talk myself into writing books. Look for #2, out early 2027 from Oxford--tentative title: "Miseducated: How We Can Fight Bad Ideas and Improve Schools Through Better Education Policy"

It's nice that People magazine has finally acknowledged that a gay man can be sexy!

My hot take - extrapolating from this study & other evidence: Tutoring in small groups is harder in an online setting than in person. If online tutoring is the best fit for your context, I would prioritize one-on-one. If you want small groups, prioritize tutoring in person.

Really stunned by this development 🙄

I am excited to move today from the era of endless annoying takes about the NYC mayor’s election to the era of endless annoying takes about the NYC mayor’s term.

“Standard Empirical Policy Analysis Does Not Support Universal Vouchers/ESAs” - killer title that is also 100% true. Check out this debate btw Doug Harris & Pat Wolf.

This was quite easy and turned out a delicious, very moist, incredibly almondy cake. Just need to keep an eye on it because it finished way faster than the recipe said (IMO the oven should be a little lower probably) cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/1026...

Feel like, as a society, we might consider moving Halloween to the last Friday in October (observed.) Vibes truly immaculate tonight.

"I have never seen a set of pretrial motions quite like this one in its power and breadth and its attempt comprehensively to dismember the legitimacy of, process behind, and substance of an indictment." @BenjaminWittes.lawfaremedia.org summarizes Comey's recent motions to dismiss the indictment.

Lord what a nightmare for GSE in particular (praying for you, Katharine!). I received this, twice already this morning.

I’m so grateful to these early readers of my new book. 🙏 And I’m also grateful to anyone who pre-orders a copy! (I’m learning that’s a big deal in the book world.)

- where will they park? - it’s too tall (it’s 5 stories) - this project will cause displacement - it’s “not really affordable” - the site was previously an auto mechanic shop and is likely contaminated and should go through an extended CEQA process - it’s ugly/doesn’t match neighborhood character

It’s an honor to serve as Chair of the Board for the @dqcdata.bsky.social as we celebrate 20 years of making data work for policymakers, families, and communities. Hear my and other leaders' thoughts about the continued importance of DQC's work here: dataqualitycampaign.org/about/twenty...

Empirical evidence and conceptual reasoning suggest quasi-experimental studies—the most common form of studies making causal claims—have a "p-hacking" problem. My essay on this and the case for adapting & adopting QED preregistration is now published in Evaluation Review. doi.org/10.1177/0193...

All of the pilfering, vandalism, and outright death caused by DOGE cuts, and all of the thefts from the future by illegally stopping research grants, didn't save a penny, Trump spent the money and more on corruption and incompetent ICE goons.
