Love this video that one of our amazing undergraduates made explaining why high-confidence errors are more likely to be corrected after feedback than low-confidence errors. Great work @PillaiRaunak! And good luck in the @APA #PsycShorts competition. https://t.co/O2lhIARBAr

Abstract in brief
- The Nelson and Narens general knowledge norms from 1980 have been widely used by researchers, but significant cultural changes over the years highlight the need for updates.
- In 2012, many people no longer knew answers to questions that were common knowledge in 1980, demonstrating generational shifts in knowledge.
- The updated norms include new metacognitive measures such as confidence judgments and peer judgments, which can enhance research in areas like memory and error correction.

And in fact for simple general knowledge facts (capital of Australia) people are actually more likely to correct errors when they are initially more confident in their answer. 8/ https://t.co/JIcHEkBJ8c (video from @PillaiRaunak as a part of the @APA PsychShorts competition)

Not that we expected better of Bari Weiss, but this is horrible leadership. It immediately puts the entire staff on the defensive and creates an atmosphere of distrust.

One of the difficulties with answering this that I think is often missed is that the "common law" wouldn't be that which existed on 1 October 2000 or even now, but that which would exist in a future whereby the HRA has been repealed in light of the repealing statute.

I think if you belong to a tradition of thought and can't recommend a reasonably competent book that traces its intellectual developments, you're just cooked honestly One should always contextualize such things, I think there's plenty of historical work on Marxism that is good and worth reading
Earlier this year, Trump told the Fed to pay attention to ADP's private-sector jobs numbers. But it's clear from those numbers that the problem isn't high Fed rates, which were higher in Biden's last 8 months than Trump's first 8. The problem is Trump's reckless tariff policy. #EconSky

Fair enough. T is also insisting that Trump is either the "AntiChrist" or he's relatively good. That isn't how logic works, and I doubt it's how prophesy works either.
