- Going through your post-conference notes is a true exercise in self-reflection. In the middle of my notes from SESP I see the intriguing word: "Kaarbo" No idea what it means.

- Another semester, another kladdkaka mud cake!! After an infamous stretch last semester where I had one of these babies a day for 7 days straight I created a "weekend only" rule for myself. I had a paper rejected today though so am making an exception

- I made my first 3D plot! I was extremely proud of myself. I think it visualizes the clustering differences between red and blue better than the 2D plot. My (non-psych) partner shrugs and says they look the same 🥲 3D's better right? ps. Can you see which one is (sig) more clustered, red or blue?
- Congratulations David!!! Well-deserved. This'll be an excellent talk. If you were on the fence about the SocCog precon, let this push you over the edge (then hop on over to Gender in the afternoon 😘)

- New chapter ahead! I'll be moving to the University of Edinburgh this Fall. I am immensely grateful for my time at UNH and the incredible colleagues and students I've gotten to work with. Excited for the new adventure in Scotland
- New work in press at PSPB! With Aashna Poddar, Adina Williams, and Andrei Cimpian We found intersectional male-centric and White-centric biases based on a list of 4,000+ first names in large-scale (English) text using word embeddings Results overview ⬇️ osf.io/preprints/os...
- (1) First, a replication. We found that the concept of a PERSON is more similar to men’s names (“Jin” “Julio” “John”) than women’s (“Qi” “Juanita” “Mary”) Previously we found the same but based on gender words ("he" “she”) instead of names, see link: www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

- Do folks have advice about dealing with singularity errors in mlms? lme4. The obvious (to us) issues don't seem to apply... Model's not that complex, 2(bet)x3(within), random intercept for participant N is adequate (600+) Balanced, little missing data (7), and no outliers @kunstjonas.bsky.social?
- I am recruiting a PhD student to start Fall 2024 at UNH. Interested in gender and other social groups, language, NLP...? Apply by 1/15/24! I can't always reply individually to emails. But the "letter to prospies" on our website includes answers to FAQs: www.baileypsychlab.com/contact/join...
- Teaching and research are often framed as enemies But I'm teaching in my area for the first time, and I'm surprised how synergistic it's been! I wrote an R&R this week using citations from class. It's also pushing me think more "big picture" and see my work in a broader context
