The criticism of Trump, Kennedy, and Bhattacharya that was so subversive that the ADA had to eject the Editor-in-Chief of their flagship journal from their annual meeting for sharing it? Prior today it had fewer than 1000 views.
Do your thing.

I'm ready for June 16th, are you?
Super fun challenge buried in here to join another effort to assess variability in methods (with possibility to use @nwb.org data too!):

Food for thought: AI probably can’t reliably generate visual illusions such as this.
(I am sure it can generate plenty of things that *could* be illusions but how would it test it without a full working model of a human perceptual system?)
How do people make choices, and what happens in our brains when we do? Anne Urai investigates how our brains process information and use it to make decisions. In applying the resulting insights to cur...

Disagreement in neuroscience runs deeper than most researchers suspect—even in electrophysiology, a field that prides itself on hard data.
Just found this intriguing new function by Wadea Abu Dahoud for making a log-scale axis squiggly, mostly to act as a visual cue/speed bump that the axis isn't linear. github.com/wade31985-ar... #rstats #dataviz
The two rows of squares are moving to the right at the same speed; however, the top row appears to be moving to the right, while the bottom one appears to be moving to the left.
上下の正方形の列は等速度で右に動いていますが、上の列は右に、下の列は左に動いているように見えます。
