I think what The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde really teaches us is that you can make as many evil alter egos as you like but the academic credentials do not transfer

When I think about the things that lead to people leaving academia I think about this image. It shows where the bullet holes were on planes that came back during WW2. The question is: Where do you put the armor?

On election night in 2016, the most pessimistic prediction for Clinton--meaning the most accurate--was @FiveThirtyEight. They gave her a 71% chance of winning. Today, they give Biden only a 68% chance of winning the 2020 election. projects.fivethirtyeight.com/2020-election-…

@charleendadams @sbkaufman @AndrewRAConway @sapinker A large number of people in the field have been blocked at this point—leaders like @duane_g_watson, @NoraNewcombe, @CantlonLab, @todd_gureckis, @o_guest, @spiantado, @AnimaAnandkumar, and countless students and trainees. None of whom committed libel.

During a talk at X, @celestekidd examined the idea of certainty: "My goal as a human and also as a scientist is to try and make my beliefs generate the most accurate predictions... And also to just accept that you don't have direct access to the truth."
