In statistics, measurement is hard. Comparing two measurements is twice as hard. Comparing two comparisons is twice as hard again.

@PessoaBrain @NicoleCRust @charanranganath @DrYohanJohn @dbarack @SussilloDavid @kordinglab But if we consider reservoir computing as “computation through dynamics” then our results show each node is somewhat involved, e.g., from 36 nodes only 2-3 of them have “zero contributions”. At least to our simple task and in our very small model.

@kordinglab I knew it! After all, a prior (or prioress) is an ecclesiastical title for a superior in some religious orders https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prior

Today I learned about a concept that I did not have a name for: "Pet model" bias. There are ideas we love. That taints our choice of questions, experimental design, data analysis, and reporting.

So Sfn was really great. I see our five coming years of community for rigor pretty clearly ahead of me.

From tomorrow morning find me at community for rigor (3004) booth at sfn22. Let’s talk rigor. Have coffee with me.

Hmm. I am usually the last to join a new technology/trend (refused cell phones for years, didn't want to upgrade from windows 3.11 to 95 😃 and kept Keynote9 for way too long). So moving to mastodon so early makes me nervous.

Consider this my #Introduction. I am tentatively here :).

Computational neuroscientist by training (RL FTW), now comp psychiatry & psychotherapy (human behavior & individual diff FTW), and on sabbatical learning & practicing CBT! Lab @ Princeton full of wonderful people.

Finally, give yourself time to reflect and take notes. ✍️

Many labs will host an #SfN2022 reflection meeting afterwards, but if you’re on your own, take your own time to do this at the end of each day. Otherwise, you might forget what you’ve learned! 😶‍🌫️
