The "paramilitary experiment". Are there pre-conditions for a paramilitary force in the US in 2026? Gambling on autocratic breakdown: even if unlikely, the problem is accepting low-probability risks with catastrophic institutional repercussions. economist.com/briefing/2026/…

Genuine question: Where are libertarian philosophers protesting Trump’s clear abuse of power? Imposing tariffs means usurping legislative authority under the false pretext of “emergency.” Conservatives, of all people, should oppose executive overreach and despotic taxation.

En 2019 denuncié un caso muy grave en la Universidad de Málaga o en 2014 lo de Trillo en la Complutense. No me consta ninguna actuación por parte de estas universidades o de los responsables directos. Y en Málaga la persona plagiadora en serie sigue todavía trabajando (yo ya no).

Is this legit? New study by University of Queensland researchers finds what other previous studies (and common observation) have found. Note that it is not easy to reproduce precisely because this platform cut access to its academic API. eprints.qut.edu.au/253211/1/…

Elon Musk’s $1M lottery to boost Trump’s voter base in swing states is a dangerous step towards plutocracy. This is a blatant attempt to buy political influence with money. vox.com/politics/378912/musk…

2/ 📚 We found that citizens with a better grasp of how science generates knowledge (epistemology) are more receptive to ideologically incongruent scientific results i.e. they’re more likely to embrace beliefs that align with communicated scientific results. #ScienceCommunication

Un libro sobre Kahneman que disfruté mucho (o fue el audiolibro) es la "biografía" de Michael Lewis sobre la amistad que Tversky y Kahneman mantuvieron durante décadas. Está traducido y es uno de esos buenos libros biográficos sobre creatividad y amistad como hay pocos.
