I updated the rb_call library, which allows you to call Ruby methods from Python code. It now works with the latest version of Python.

Let me take a moment to advertise our recent paper again on @PLOSCompBiol!
It was published on December 27th, and understandably, many people didn't get a chance to read it during their holidays 😅

A very nice journey with a great ending: In a new paper, @NikoletaGlyn describes how longer memory allows people to sustain reciprocal cooperation. For details, see 🧵 below 👇

🚨Together with Ethan Akin, @DrMANowak & @chilbe3 our new paper published in @PNASNews characterizes partner strategies (Nash strategies that sustain cooperation) for reactive-n strategies in repeated games 🧵

In a new paper published today in @PNASNews, @yohm13 and I discuss a general framework to make sense of social norms and different indirect reciprocity models. Below is a 🧵, here is the paper:
pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.24…
These correlations depend on the structure of social interactions, but also on the social norm in place. We find that a norm can only sustain cooperation if the resulting opinions of different community members become sufficiently correlated.
Opinions tend to become strongly correlated, for example, when social interactions are widely observable. Alternatively, they become correlated when individuals use gossip to synchronize their views. Here is an open version of the paper:
