    70,000 students were arrested at school during the 2013-14 school year alone. Two-thirds were students of color. Not one case where a school police officer intervened and stopped a school shooting.

    Reminds me of the "eyesore of the week" that ran each week when I worked there. Community news lives on!

    At (and before that) we often use this sidewalk crack story as an example of our “no story too small” mentality. It also launched a lot of “point at that” photos.

    Are these effects symmetric? Not necessarily. First, they appear to be stronger when your side is ahead. Second, exposure, at least in 2016, appears to be more likely among liberal audiences. And, the sites hosting forecasts have tended to be shared more by liberal audiences.

    I tell my students to not compare themselves to other people. Focus on working in a disciplined and efficient fashion with clear priorities. Don't measure productivity in terms of hours, focus on high-quality output for the stage in their career. Prioritize family and exercise.

    I tell my graduate students and post-docs that if they’re working 60 hours per week, they’re working less than the full professors, and less than their peers.
