There was peace in Iran and the region before the attack??
Can you imagine being without internet for 14 days? A forced #digitalblackout on 90 million people in #Iran. Thousands have been killed; the rest are held hostage in silence. No calls,no news,no messages to loved ones,no way to check if your loved ones are safe. How is this possible in this century?
Couldn’t agree more!

Yet LLMs can still help in later stages of writing. It’s time we talk about responsible and fair use of LLMs rather than bashing them altogether. They can be helpful and we still can dive into the writing mode. It just needs more discussion on how.
Yes but these easy parts are important too. LLMs are just a tool. Why do some people assume we should stop thinking altogether using a tool? Like any other technology, it’s up to us how we use it.

HEY! YOU! ggdibbler 0.6.1 is finally up on CRAN!
harriet-mason.github.io/ggdibbler/in...
You can now pass random variables to any aesthetic in any ggplot geom/stat. If you can express it as a distribution, ggdibbler can plot it. It also works with ggplot extensions, like gganimate. #rstats
Just published my "Programming for Psychologists" course! 👩💻 github.com/Naubody/prog...
Designed for Psychology & Cognitive Neuroscience Master's students starting their programming journey at @vuamsterdam.bsky.social.
Feel free to share! Feedback welcome!
No inner voice? Feeling so jealous... You must be sleeping well then 🫠
Still smiling after my Mind the Brain talk!🧠
I spoke about memory control processes and how #misinformation can slip through the mental guard. I had some fascinating conversations afterwards.
Huge thanks to everyone who joined, and to the fantastic ICN team

Science feels so irrelevant and when there is war going on in your homeland. I’ll be off Bluesky for a while.
Thrilled to get my hands on the first copies of my book!
“A Trick of the Mind: How the Brain Invents Your Reality” in bookshops soon - from 26th June 🧠 🍎
(Though Ralphie more interested in the packaging….)

There’s a really great lineup of speakers, and I’ll be doing a little talk on misinformation and how our memory works. It’s open to everyone. Would love to see some familiar faces there.

Enjoyed it so much!

Fascinating! Is it possible to join the symposium remotely?
Great opportunity! Thanks for sharing.
Had an amazing time at the Combating Misinformation conference at @unituebingen.bsky.social!
Shared how memory control processes can lead to false memories and make us vulnerable to #misinformation.
So many brilliant people, ideas, and conversations!

A screenshot of a paper on bioarxiv illustrating the lack of blue sky share button!
Would you like to see @biorxivpreprint.bsky.social add a share to blue sky button?! I know I would! Share this post to let @richardsever.bsky.social @erictopol.bsky.social and others at bioarxiv know!
A #PhDlife often makes it hard to see the progress you’ve made! Sometimes, we need to pause and celebrate the little milestones! On the same day, I passed my PhD upgrade, completed a 4-year therapy journey, and marked my 80th yoga session. Maybe Jung was right about coincidences!

The segment is in Persian, but if it’s not your language and you’re curious about what we discussed, feel free to reach out!
Had a great chat on BBC Persian Click about why #misinformation spreads so quickly and how our biases make us vulnerable to it. While big solutions involve many players, what we can do now may include question what we read, be active truth-seekers, and fact-check before sharing.

Interesting!
Oh where is the save/bookmark button on @bsky.app? 🫣
Starter packs are great, but they can only have 150 accounts on them. Check out my much larger list of Brain and Mind researchers here - and let me know if you would like to be added! #neuroskyence #psychscisky bsky.app/profile/mica...
#CogNeuro seeks unified theories of behavioral, physiological, and mental states. To this aim, our #NatureNeuro Perspective proposes a new framework centered on #TaskDemands & across-task generalization. www.nature.com/articles/s41...
