i still think my favourite thing that's ever happened to me on the internet is the time a guy said "people change their minds when you show them facts" and I said "actually studies show that's not true" and linked TWO sources and he said "yeah well I still think it works"

Lots of talk about the SPSP survey about the job market. It's worth reading, but please be thoughtful when using the results to make suggestions. The associations they found shouldn't always be turned into prescriptions of what people should do. 1/https://t.co/BAlDZyN6F9
