Relevant: In one of the few longitudinal (pre/post) studies of critical thinking skills around, Arum and Roska found that business majors showed no change, on avg, in critical thinking, complex reasoning, or communication skills after 4 years. Other majors did better.

This was well before GenAI.

Wow. Just wow.

Walked by Kramer Books on my way home and signed a copy of my book We’re Not Broken: Changing the Autism Conversation. Go pick it up if you don’t have a copy. The staff is also great too.

The same man holding up the book, which is white and says “We’re Not Broken: Changing the Autism Conversation.”

Not nearly the Mitch Williams situation because that was a walk-off HR to lose the whole World Series. I think Kimbrel is a better analogy. But either way, he's unlikely to be on the Phillies' roster again next year

To be fair, they limped across the finish line. Like, there used to be too few wild card teams. Now there are too many

I learned more about physics from a man named Julius Sumner Miller than any other source — and it's because his show is one of the funniest, most memeable things you've ever seen.

I cut up the best episode . If you have 2m50s, watch it all. You won't regret it.
