    Advice for writing a grad school statement of purpose. Faculty want to know (1) what kind of question(s) do you want to answer; (2) can you do it; (3) are we the right place for you to do it at. In that order, ideally. and others—do chime in!

    Twitter friends! I will be in London this Saturday afternoon, December 7th; and then again Sunday December 15th and Monday 16th. DM or e-mail if you are about. In between I will be completely off-grid on the east coast of Naxos, bringing apologies to Ariadne.

    I have opposed the Facebook AI Lab before, but since it’s back in my feed: FAIL does not do intelligence. It runs simple algorithms, massively scaled-up, on people’s private data to aid a corporate mission.

    To do great things, people have to work very hard (source: personal experience). But the style of management below is all too common. If your company sucks (or, let’s be honest, its mission is not worth life-force), you’ll resort to this kind of behavior to get things done.

    OK , scourge of Econ: if ergodicity is right, then Kelly says that people should be insensitive to payouts; e.g., if prob of winning for A/B is 50-50, but an A win payout is x2 and a B win payout is x0.01, people should still spread bet 50:50. Do they?

    The hub in my market has designated bathrooms. Not for male/female, but for partner & employee. Anyone else think it's strange that Uber views partners & employees as two separate classes of people?

    I just submitted my doctoral thesis! These days at Oxford you simply upload it as a PDF. It's a somewhat anticlimactic process, so I made this to mark the event:

    Every time I hear that we must learn from the wrong turn of cliometrics, I’m going to cough & mention that Fogel & North later got the Nobel Prize for Economics. Historians of all ppl should recall that things are “wrong turns” in the eyes of observers standing on specific roads.

    "If you have the right academic credentials, you get the benefit of the doubt. The meritocracy is quite forgiving toward its own. You get plenty of second and third chances where others would not."

    But there’s something so profoundly unmysterious about the structure. No meeting of the worlds, just a cut frame. My guess is that the fan fiction has almost no Dursleys at all—fans being more creative than the commercial structure allows.

    I’ve always been puzzled by the fact that Rowling adjusts the standard boarding-school story to include them. Obviously, it helps with identification on the part of the average reader.

    By contrast, Harry is defined by his coming to terms with his royal heritage in opposition to the Dursleys. The Dursleys are “open works”—their villainy is amorphous and trivial, and presents no challenge.

    In these latter cases, the guardians play the role of psychopomps, guiding them downwards (at least at first). They enable the child to enter adulthood, and that’s what makes these dramas higher forms.

    Both Lyra and the Narnia children find themselves in a different condition: without parents. Their guardians pro temp are kindly and inoffensive—there is no parent/child struggle.

    Jung on the dual-mother (parent) fantasy—the heart of the Harry Potter myth. Does not appear in Philip Pullman or CS Lewis, and I think he is right to call it infantile.

    .'s claim there is "no war" against symbols is simply false. I attach some evidence: Hinton, dismissing symbols in March, 2019, a pair of tweets from others in last 24 hours, & Lecun's 2015 Nature paper conclusion, which directly aimed to replace to symbol-manipulation.

    Does any household in the UK *actually* believe that a Labour victory would leave them with an extra £6,700 at the end of the year? This seems like the Frankfurt definition of bullsh*t: nobody believes it, not even the people saying it.
