Good episode talking about how to evaluate zoning reforms. This touches on a lot of concepts, zoned capacity, development potential, and how land use interacts with economics.

It may seem strange to folks outside of academia, but there has been a line of prominent research within it arguing that misinformation isn't a problem. This paper pushes back, noting how those arguments often rely on poor definitions & operationalizations of what misinformation is & how it works.
In this new article in American Psychologist we respond to critics in detail and clarify two key points for the field;

(1) The prevalence of misinformation in society is substantial when properly defined.

(2) Misinformation causally impacts attitudes and behaviors.

The Chinese restaurant we ate at, which serves exclusively halal food and has a huge Muslim customer base, was blasting the entirety of Sabrina Carpenter’s Short ‘n Sweet in honor of Christmas, and, honestly, this wild mix of influences is the main thing I love about this stupid country.

We regularly get questionable news coverage on foreign buyers, but today’s G&M piece stands out as particularly problematic. @lausterna.bsky.social and I push back.
