Every now and then I write twitter threads about papers (both ones I read and ones I’ve written) and talks (ones I gave and ones I’ve seen). Someone suggested once that it may be a good idea to collect such threads in one place. Hence, I created this post; mostly for myself, but it may be of use for others, too.

My selection is a bit eclectic and reflects my interests. I assume the list will grow with time.

Threads about my own papers

• Rational analysis, intractability, and the prospects of ‘as if’-explanations
• Demons of ecological rationality
• Tractable embodied computation needs embeddedness
• Deep analogical inference as the origin of hypotheses

• Computational resource demands of a predictive Bayesian brain (guest thread) *NEW*

Threads about my own talks

• Why cognitive scientists should care about computational complexity
• Cognitive mechanisms of language use
