      love this genre of day-late & dollar-short face-saving by media/humanities scholars. 'we totally dropped the ball cuz we don't has science but if I'm the first to say this then... i science!'https://twitter.com/zeynep/status/1242426243909332993 …

      We wasted February and the failure wasn't just from the administration. Many in media, too, fueled the complacency. Why? Because we don't know how to think about complex systems—something we must learn to get through this. I explain how. New piece from me. https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2020/03/what-really-doomed-americas-coronavirus-response/608596/ … pic.twitter.com/MBdkBqvnPs

          Didn't mean any disrespect, but c'mon — it is a genre! You say you'll explain how but you can't, really. If you really knew how, you'd have written this weeks ago. The problem w complex systems is you can't predict them, so this is mostly just you signaling (imho).

          Not that it matters, but at the University where I am a professor, Sociology is considered social science, not humanities. “Humanities” is often used as an insult by those who are understand neither humanities nor any types of sciences.
