UnsilencedSci: Scott Alexander/Astral Star Codex was 1 of many sophists who criticized candidate-gene research based on the failure of 5-HTTLPR as a "depression gene." Depression, itself, often fails as a unified disease. Here's just the latest example w/ a neuromarker.

Paul_airoldi: With how amazing Matheson is playing do you take the opportunity to flip him for a great young RD? Surely a contender could use him at a reasonable cap hit and term for a top-pair guy? Scott Morrow or Alexander Nikishin (LHD but hes amazing) from the canes?

Poem of the day

Andrew Lang Poem
Ballade Of The Midnight Forest
 by Andrew Lang

Still sing the mocking fairies, as of old,
Beneath the shade of thorn and holly-tree;
The west wind breathes upon them, pure and cold,
And wolves still dread Diana roaming free
In secret woodland with her company.
'Tis thought the peasants' hovels know her rite
When now the wolds are bathed in silver light,
And first the moonrise breaks the dusky grey,
...
