Hi all,

Those of you who like getting your learn on in video form will not be disappointed this week- I've brought you a fun video on Bayes' Rule as well as a whole bunch of forthcoming videos from version 2 of Dan Ariely's MOOC (which I think starts tomorrow and you can still sign up for). Oh, and something about politicians yet again abusing the findings of economic research. You know, the usual. =P

Cheers,
Jodi
