Whoa, surprised @nytimes chose to "pick"/feature my comment. 😲 FYI, it's a decent article about happiness, but, as I said in my comment, I think it's all a bit misguided. nytimes.com/2025/05/01/magaz… #habitsftw

I'm gonna call it: When companies resort to creative financial instruments to stay afloat, it's the .COM bubble, SubPrime Mortgage Crisis, Groundhog Day all over again. #DigitalHealth,WhatchaHidin',Hmm? #PonziSchemeByAnyOtherName #HotPotatoValuationGameIsFunUnlessYou'reTheLastSucker

BREAKING: If you read only one report this year, this is it! #DigitalTherapeutics' Come to Jesus moment, which we've warned about for YEARS. Here's the TL;DR:
Digital #Diabetes tools used by millions of Americans don't deliver meaningful health benefits and increase healthcare spending, according to PHTI's newest evaluation. Read the report, which recommends a new path forward for patients, payers, providers: phti.com/assessment/digital-…

Great mythbusting analysis of Noom, @bddol @ExitsOutcomes! But, you underplayed a key discovery: The NET adherence lift of Novo Nordisk's Saxenda attributable to Noom was just 15%, or just 23 days?! 🧐🤨😆 exitsandoutcomes.com/the-noo… #LeaveBehaviorChangeToTheExperts @HabitDesign

And shame on them for such juvenile Powerpoint graphic chicanery making 33% somehow look like 300%?! 🙄🤡 My old prof @EdwardTufte would be barfing at the screen right now. 🤮 #NoomIsAnInvestorHotPotato #TrustUsWereFromGoogle

Why most published research is probably false (HT @TheEconomist):
It took 11 YEARS, but the authors who sparked the myth of "3.27-to-1" ROI of #corporatewellnessfail, finally refuted their own research. washingtonpost.com/outlook/w… healthaffairs.org/doi/abs/10… #hatetosaywetoldyouso #quackerygoneamok #followREALscience

Sad to hear how companies and their employees till get snookered by #corporatewellnessfail. We've been documenting this for years! Ask not what you can do for your company, ask what your company can do for YOU (and not TO you). slate.com/human-interest/202… @slate
... I'm also relieved that our @NIH-funded study, their first ever focused on habit training and coaching, covers each of those criteria! 😌
We're extremely selective and circumspect with promoting research by fellow #HabitDesign scientists 🧐🤔, but this paper easily passes muster and is a must read! psyarxiv.com/umhtz/ Bravo @drbengardner, @amandarebar, Phillippa Lally! 👏👏👏
