Death threats, racial slurs
I don't know much about mastodon yet. So I don't know what is technically feasible.
Automatically allowing any new instance to begin unblocked seems like a problem, because the nanoinstances devoted to harassment can set up and then once blocked respawn with new names at will.
I could post some ill-informed suggestions of how to solve that, but I'll leave it to people who actually know things. What can we do?
Fantastic paper describes the bias that may arise *from* #regularisation in a multi level model.
Simple correction the authors propose only works if there is *no* treatment-confounder feedback(see: https://go-bayes.github.io/b-causal/posts/confounder-treatment-feedback/conf-out-feedback.html)
@f2harrell has a great post on the problems with changes scores:
Hi,
I'm Joseph Bulbulia (Joe).
I teach #QuantitativePsychology at Victoria University of Wellington.
I serve on the leadership team of the New Zealand Attitudes and Values Study.
I supervise graduate students interested in #longitudinal methods for national-scale #paneldata.
My substantive research interests are in the psychology of religion, cultural evolution, moral psychology, well-being, and more recently #climatepsychology.
Big fan of the #potentialoutcomes framework for #causalinference.
Not a big fan of #prediction and #associations in #psychology.
I migrated to qoto.org because of its nice interface and science community.*

*Also, I think I can write things like
\[E(Y^1) - E(Y^0) \neq 0\]
