Admittedly, the guy could wear the hell out of a suit. Beyond that, good riddance.

Early voting is complete in New York City! What we know: 735,317 people have voted. That's more than four times the early total in 2021, and it's 67.5% of the early voting total in 2024.

Maybe instead of *talking about* Nigerian Christians, we should *listen to* Nigerian Christians? It's a moral failing to let your fear of terrorism lead you down the road to Islamaphobia, or prevent you from speaking up for Muslim children. Nigerian British rapper Santan Dave: [CW: cursing audio]

Please consider these generally unknown details.

At no point can you accurately predict what will happen. I love it.

Happy Halloween / Dia de los Muertos! 🎃💀 Are monsters coming to get you? Or are you someone's monster? Nia DaCosta and Jordan Peele's horror movies flip that answer on its head. [CW: horror movie trailer / Black trauma / scaring people with construction paper and flashlights]

If a 1% tax makes you leave NYC for somewhere else, you're admitting that somewhere else was within 1% of being as good a value as New York. If you've ever met a rich New Yorker, you know that their unifying characteristic is that they don't think anywhere is within 10% of New York on anything.🤷🏿‍♂️

Love when the clouds part and light up the East River. #photography #nyc

Early voting on Halloween FTW better than candy.

I benefited immensely from this amazing series last year (thank you Brisa, Lydia, and all the panelists). Can’t recommend it enough for anyone on the faculty job market!

🧠🌟🐭 Excited to share some of my postdoc work on the evolution of dexterity! We compared deer mice evolved in forest vs prairie habitats. We found that forest mice have: (1) more corticospinal neurons (CSNs) (2) better hand dexterity (3) more dexterous climbing, which is linked to CSN number🧵

New Pre-Print: www.biorxiv.org/cgi/content/... We’re all familiar with having to practice a new skill to get better at it, but what really happens during practice? The answer, I propose, is reinforcement learning - specifically policy-gradient reinforcement learning. Overview 🧵 below...

When I was an undergrad, I saw a talk by Oliver Sacks about music. During the Q&A, someone asked Sacks if he thought science would reveal the deepest mysteries of art. Sacks (a rare humanist among scientists) said that he doubted it, at which Eric Kandel (the host) leaped up and grabbed the mic.
