I very much enjoyed the new book, #ChangingHowWeChoose by @adredish which considers how morality can be studied as a set of tools to support and encourage cooperation. As a neuroscientist and Zen practitioner, I've put together some thoughts in a new post: neuralbuddhist.com/2023/03/1…

1/4 New bioRxiv preprint biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…. Models should be as simple as possible, but no simpler. Models need to fit all of the data, not just the baseline case.

What a great surprise! The Class of 1971 has dedicated a bench outside of the Allen Center to Jon Pactor ’71.
Jon, aka “The Bow Tie Guy” at Wabash, has been involved in and founded countless events involving students and alumni. He truly is Some Little Giant!

IU Health Academic Health Center current hospitalization data
Keep in mind Indiana is at about 50% vaccinated at this point. So if vaccines didn’t work, it should be equal numbers of vax and unvax hospitalized.
Vaccines clearly keep people out of the hospital.
Get the shot.
