OMFG, I need to read this paper. My freshman year I was called Needles because I always had a bandage on my arm from donating plasma twice a week (as much as I could). Made about $1200 that year. mzapryanova.github.io/web/Kang_McCon…

People in Eugene seem to freaking out that the police want to install automated license plate readers. Would you rather police rely on tips/calls. pretextual stops, or technology to locate stolen cars or use technology?

So apparently in Oregon they are currently not filing for extradition for non violent crimes. So someone embezzled $100k from a newspaper and then fled out of state. Same thing for someone who embezzled $500k from a non profit that built affordable housing.

Why the hell does San Francisco get two interstates which finish in it and Oregon gets zero, and another dead ends in Nevada?

Federal aid should fund opportunity, not programs that fail students. With smart reforms, we can hold institutions accountable and give students a fair shot at success. It’s time for policymakers to act. 👉 bit.ly/3Z1isNe (/2)

Sometimes it feels unreal to me there's that much hate in this country. This morning played some pickleball. Some body showed up at 8am and started yelling at us because the courts didn't open until 830. We then saw the sign that said that (oops) and then as we were leaving

It'd be easy to fix the budget bill. Get rid of new tax cuts and spending. Replace Medicaid cuts to access with closing abuses on MA upcoding, site neutral payments, and Medicaid state directed payments. That's a more just and budget-neutral (with realistic dynamic scoring) bill.

So it's going to fabricate or use fraudulently manipulated data in its entire research agenda but get to the top of its field at Harvard before the retractions roll in a couple decades late.
