We don’t talk enough about Alfre Woodard’s performance in Star Trek: First Contact. Stunning. And among other things, brought out some of Patrick Stewart’s moments. He rarely had a partner who could meet his energy, but she did. 🖖🏽

Reproducibility and open science are great, but they don't necessarily equate to rigor. You can perfectly share a study and still draw weak conclusions. True rigor lives in the questions we ask, the designs we choose, and the inferences we make.

I used Claude to figure out where the option to turn off the AI Meeting Notes prompt is in Notion’s settings (it’s in Notifications).

my paternal grandmother wanted nothing to do with computers or digital interfaces (“Too many buttons.” 🙂) and with her passing in 2013 she avoided a lot of more recent problems we’ve seen with technology…

Just when you thought it was safe to dive into MeSH terms...

Good question! Essentially to try and account for any sleep-related behavior intervention involving over-activity/movement that subsequently involved prescribing melatonin.
