  • An interesting article<\/a> on how child abuse panic is keeping men out of the childcare industry. My daughter had a male teacher at her school for a while. She really liked him and it was good to see her having a male role model in her life beyond me. But I also admired the man’s courage; I would not put myself in such a vulnerable position.<\/li>\n
  • One of my favorite things to do as a grad student was to look up heavily referenced papers to see if they said what people said they said. At least a quarter of the time, they didn’t. Maggie McNeill just dug up<\/a> a 30-year-old bit of Mathematical Malpractice that’s been cited incorrectly in support of innumerable bad laws.<\/li>\n
  • A frustrating story<\/a> about why we can’t watch WKRP in its original format. We really have to do something about fair use. The Republicans indicated that they might; then ran away from that position.<\/li>\n
  • This video<\/a>, of a hilarious bug in the FIFA 2012 video game, had me giggling.<\/li>\n
  • I have to disagree with almost everything in this article<\/a> claiming the alcohol industry is trying to make us drunks. It assumes alcoholism is entirely a function of government policy. And it mainly reads like a press release from the powerful forces trying to overturn the SCOTUS decision on out-of-state liquor importation, an issue of particular relevance to Pennsylvania.<\/li>\n
  • Is airport security taking more lives<\/a> than it is saving? Seems like.<\/li>\n
  • I’ve been sitting on this story<\/a>, about how doctor witheld information about a child’s medical future from the parents, for a while, trying to think of a way to approach it. Might still write a long form post. But I default to thinking people have a right to know. To presume to make that decision for them is arrogance. As our diagnostic tools get better, we need to give people the legal option: do you want know if we find anything bad? What happens if a cure is invented and this kid doesn’t know that he needs one?<\/li>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
