Oxford Professor of Evidence Based Medicine completely confused about the basic function of masks: protecting *others* (just one of multiple scientific errors in his article). spectator.co.uk/article/do-m… via @spectator
.@rebexxxxa Hi, read your recent MRA piece w interest. Seems to take a tribal rather than principled approach. No problem w that. But then you castigate your opponents for... taking a tribal rather than principled approach :-/ Surely better criticisms if as course as you claim?

New paper out! Making money in poker should also make you more predictable, but poker sharks get their cake and eat it too. How? They literally use their cards to encrypt their thinking. In Cognitive Science: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/… With sharky @Probablyist and Paul Williams
My new paper out today: How poker experts use encryption in their strategy. Official pub link: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/… and fully accessible pre-print: researchgate.net/publication…
My new paper with Seth Frey @enfascination and Paul Williams is out today! :) Thanks to @ColeStoryMining for helping me spread the word xitter.cf/ColeStoryMining/status…
Trying to perfect your poker face? Try working on your poker brain, say researchers @Probablyist @enfascination. Dominic Albino was at the tables for three years so he knows a bit about the subject. @WSOP #pokeronline today.uconn.edu/2018/06/poke…

Breaking news: Based on his negotiation skills Trump has been hired as GM of the Warriors. He already traded Curry and Durant to the Celtics for three leprechauns and a promise that the Warriors would no longer hold practices.

My research showing how poker experts protect themselves by using encryption to take advantage of uncertainty appears in Cognitive Science (@cogsci_soc) next week! Just in time for the @WSOP! Co-authored with @enfascination xitter.cf/ColeStoryMining/status…
Researchers studied more than 35,000 individuals playing millions of Texas Hold'em poker hands online for insight into how people process information. Findings will be in Cognitive Science. @cogsci_soc @UConnResearch @IndianaUniv @ucdavis @WSOP @PokerNews #pokeronline

Serendipity's value is exploring unknown unknowns. Choice limits you to the already known, and you miss the broader, better possibilities.
Yo @Noahpinion, see the productivity/wages graph @TheAtlantic had & Rivkin's deaf-by-dogma reading of same? Thoughts? theatlantic.com/business/arc…
