Meta-analysis shows student ranks based on achievement test scores are relatively stable over time whereas those based on school grades are not. Overall, this suggests placement decisions based on these measures should be reassessed at least every 1-2 years. #PsychSciSky #AcademicSky #EduSky

Excess mortality estimates are so crucial... and *so* tricky. We have very little expert consensus about how they should be done. Changing that is a really smart, consequential research frontier to focus effort on.

2. Weaponize law against opponents
3. Use military to police opposition strongholds
4. Threaten media, schools, businesses w penalties to get them to heel
5. Change election rules in his favor.
