"Many of the most significant discoveries of the 21st century have first appeared on the platform. [...] The biggest mystery is not why arXiv succeeded. Rather, it’s how it wasn’t killed by vested interests intent on protecting traditional academic publishing."

Inside arXiv—the Most Transformative Platform in All of Science
Modern science wouldn’t exist without the online research repository known as arXiv. Three decades in, its creator still can’t let it go.

Outstanding powerhouse, tenacious work by @ranigera.bsky.social . A core part of the data is a custom-built a smartphone app so we can track user habitization over many days (they’re not stuck in a lab)

@cfcamerer.bsky.social and John O’Doherty!
We investigated how habit and motor automaticity are related across 5 datasets with 1,000+ participants, using a novel task and existing paradigms

Cool story about a citizen scientist who built a sea floor shelter for seahorses.

Now he’s a world expert.

These declines are MASSIVE.

And the comparative silence in media coverage is absolutely DAMNING.

“Why are ppl always so afraid of crime?”

THIS is why. When crime goes up, media trips over itself to report it.

Falls to pre-war (!!) levels? Just CRICKETS.
I count 10 cities in 2025 that are on track to have the fewest murders since at least 1970. Newark is on pace to have the fewest murders since 1956 (though only have data through Oct this year) and San Francisco is on pace to have the fewest murders since 1942.

👏
