Or why the gold standard for causal inference is not RCTs but is careful scholarship

It's 2026 and Causal Inference is Still Difficult.
It often takes years of focused study and/or practice to truly mater its concepts.
And so we naturally reach out for simplifications and heuristics.

This past weekend, hundreds of students joined the many thousands of others across the country who will forever carry memories of terror and loss caused by senseless violence.
School shootings have been a constant threat in my life. If we care about our children, we cannot let this continue.

It's a policy choice that we're still experiencing mass shootings on a regular basis. It won't change until the legislators responsible for making those choices are held accountable for the deaths, injuries, and PTSD that occurs with each additional act of gun violence.
It has been 13 years since the lives of 20 children and six educators were taken in minutes by a gunman armed with a Bushmaster AR-15 rifle and high-capacity magazines at Sandy Hook School in Newtown, Connecticut. Two other people were wounded. 🧵

Why would competition lead to stricter regulations?
