Really crazy that so many Americans based their entire life around carrying guns to protect US from authoritarians & pedophiles, then when confronted with authoritarians & pedophiles they joined in as paramilitary terrorizing innocent civilians & protecting the pedophiles from accountability.

It's hard to take the journal seriously when the editors don't take their jobs seriously.
I just had a negative experience with @pnasnexus.org. I submitted my 8-page manuscript on April 11th. Four months later, I get a rejection with superficial feedback that implies the editor could not have done more than glance at the manuscript.

What's Wiley afraid of?
The inconsistencies we document, even between different measures of the same form of overconfidence, are hard to reconcile with a simple version of the claim that overconfidence is some sort of stable trait.
You probably think there are some people who are more overconfident than others. If so, then you might be interested to read our paper: doi.org/10.1017/jdm....
Area chart from The Wall Street Journal showing long-term trends in the wealth of the top 0.00001% of U.S. households as a percentage of all U.S. househould wealth.
"The wealthiest have gotten richer, and control a record share of America’s wealth. New data suggest $1 trillion of wealth was created for the 19 richest American households alone in 2024. That’s more than the value of Switzerland’s entire economy." (via @wsj.com) www.wsj.com/economy/1-tr...

No, when we submitted this paper I thought it was great, and was vexed by our negative reviews. But then I am usually inordinately fond of my own writing and my own projects; if I weren't, I wouldn't pursue them.
I agree that peer reviews should all be public. But I also know that smart colleagues disagree with me, and there are arguments on both sides of that one.
