How do kids actually learn to read? We tackle this question in a new paper that studies a program that tripled (!!) reading gains in Ghanaian 1st-grade classrooms. Its impacts match a model of cumulative reading ability, which we will assess with future waves of data.

Highly recommend. 5 out of 5 on the peanut butter chocolate scoring system I use. I’ve never given a 5 before in my life too!

@JoeGoJoeGo has the best "PDF to plain text" pipeline I've seen in his app paper2audio.com. I imagine he wouldn't recommend this but uploading the paper to the site and getting back the text has been much better than me running a simple pdftotext at home.

Jane Goodall died today. While smarter and more informed people will talk about her work, I want to share a snippet from her Wikipedia page - the two greatest paragraphs ever on Wikipedia. The first parts are amusing and interesting, but the last sentence elevates it to high art.

Software these days is insanely buggy, tbh it drives me insane e.g. basic normal use of trying to log into Slack hits "you've been trying to log in too often" (no I was just trying to log in per normal) or Windows' Snipping Tool destroys the luminance on screenshots if you have HDR mode enabled It's just little quality of life things that are broken, and there are engineers being paid high 6 figures to ship this kind of stuff *sigh*

If Laura Loomer had been around in 1940, she'd have been trying to prevent Jewish refugees from entering the US. You know she would. And if Trump had been president then, she'd have succeeded.

The Trump-Supreme Court battle is not really the crisis. The crisis is here now. Trump is enacting an insidious coordinated attack on our institutions of democratic accountability, designed to crater democracy before next fall. 1/ A long 🧵to explain the plan & how we stop it.

It’s now clear that the @realDonaldTrump Administration computed reciprocal tariffs without using tariff data. This is to economics what creationism is to biology, astrology is to astronomy, or RFK thought is to vaccine science. The Trump tariff policy makes little sense EVEN if you believe in protectionist mercantilist economics.

Authoritarian leaders do not care about the prosperity of the country. If these tariffs stick, it is a massive increase in Trump’s personal power. Businesses will be desperate for exceptions, any jobs created would be dependent on Trump’s policies. The corruption is the point.

Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive. No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief. 1/ A 🧵 to explain his plan and how we fight back.

After many hours of scrutinizing humor in LLM outputs, this one by Claude 3.7 is the funniest by far.
LOL!! Claude (via Cursor) randomly tried to update the model of my feature from OpenAI to Claude 🤯 (my request was totally unrelated)
