meta-research on measurement (standardisation), online data quality, and reproducibility.
In the last decade, the IDF prosecuted one (1) soldier for unlawfully killing a Palestinian in the occupied territories. Elor Azaria served 9 months in prison. Today Israel's president, Yitzhak Herzog, pardoned him and expunged his criminal record. A clear message of 100% impunity.
Ashamed of politicians across the spectrum here in Europe for having ignored the genocide and continuing to do so. *All* human rights orgs working on the ground agree with this assessment, including *all* Israeli ones. www.theguardian.com/world/2026/s...

A Case Study on Norming an Intelligence Test Using Regularised Prediction and Poststratification

"The Islamists oppose women getting an education," I mutter, as I aim my missile at the girls school
"States like these, and their terrorist allies, constitute an axis of evil, arming to threaten the peace of the world."
it is a challenge to think of an evil deed that the most moral army in the world hasn't already done

Israel has killed 240+ journalists. People who'd cover a strike that killed their kids and go on to cover the next strike, in the pursuit of convincing the world to act, of the hope of tomorrow being different. How many more murders will it take for the mainstream media's cowardly fever to break?
BREAKING: Israel Killed Al Jazeera Journalist Anas Al-Sharif
Journalists in Gaza continue to be murdered in record numbers, while Western media outlets and reporters show little or no outrage.
