""Theres a public health imperative to quickly expand the adoption of autonomous vehicles. More than 39000 Americans died in motor vehicle crashes last year more than homicide plane crashes and natural disasters combined." Not surprisingly to a psychologist properly instrumented self-driving cars have a fraction of the accident rate"

"I'll be giving talks on common knowledge in Australia and New Zealand in February 2026. Tickets : "I begin the book with the story of The Emperors New Clothes because its the quintessential illustration of common knowledge. When the boy said the Emperor was naked he wasnt telling anyone anything they didnt already know. They could see the Emperor was naked but he changed the state of their knowledge nonetheless because by blurting it out within earshot of everyone now everyone knew that everyone else knew that everyone else knew that everyone else knew that the Emperor was naked. So it shows"

"Why do people hoard toilet paper at the first sign of an emergency Why are Super Bowl ads filled with ads for crypto Why in American presidential primary voting do citizens typically select the candidate they believe is preferred by others rather than their favorite Why did Russian authorities arrest a protester who carried a blank sign Why is it so hard for nervous lovers to say goodbye at the end of a phone call Why does everyone agree that if we were completely honest all the time life would be unbearable Find out here:"

"The French Revolution was a disaster: killed X million people led to the rise of Napoleon--perhaps the world's first totalitarian fascist dictator who began wars of conquest that killed an additional X million people led to the restoration of slavery to the restoration of the monarchy and a delay of democracy in France by perhaps a century. Russian Revolution killed several million led to the Russian Civil War--which killed another X million--led to the rise of Stalin who killed XX million. There's an old clich: you can't make an omelette without breaking a few eggs. Well it ignores the fact"

"I explain why the accusation that Israel is committing "genocide" is blood libel. Me: The application of the word genocide to refer to tens of thousands of war deaths is I mean I think it is a kind of blood libel. It's trying to import the moral opprobrium that we associate with genocide to a designated enemy in this case Israel. I think because I alluded to my side bias the sides in this case being the sides that a lot of hard left critical theory has defined namely white oppressors against everyone else's victims. Moynihan: It's pretty strong to say this is like a blood libel. Me: Well it"

"EO Wilson as Peggy Sastre writes was Patient Zero in academic cancel culture the campaign to discredit scholars with heterodox beliefs by smearing them with fanciful nefarious political motives. Back in 1975 after one of the first modern challenges to the doctrine of the blank slate he was the target of a petition preposterously accusing him of justifying slavery and genocide. Not even death was an escape: a historian trawled through his correspondence and got him re-canceled for a sympathetic personal letter to an even more reviled professor"

""In his journal Sacks wrote that 'a sense of hideous criminality remains (psychologically) attached' to his work: he had given his patients 'powers (starting with powers of speech) which they do not have.' Some details he recognized were 'pure fabrications.'"
