How are people able to map knowledge from one domain to another? I'll report a series of studies showing that people's cross-domain mappings were best predicted by similarity along abstract dimensions such as valence, complexity, and genderedness - a finding that could be reliably simulated by language models. In an ongoing study, we further asked what allows people to process cross-domain mappings so easily by drawing insights from a network perspective.

The Nasdaq Composite tumbled 2.2% to 12,843.81. Though all three indexes opened in the green, stocks took a turn after a new report showed U.S. consumer sentiment deteriorated more than expected in early March as consumers' inflation expectations soared to the highest since 1981. Friday’s performance was part of a larger shift. For the week, the Dow, S&P 500 and Nasdaq fell 2%, 2.9%, and 3.5%, respectively. In February 2014, the Ukrainian people ousted pro-Russian president Viktor Yanukovych, prompting Russia to invade and annex the Crimean peninsula. By the start of April, Pavel Durov had given his notice, with TechCrunch saying at the time that the CEO had resisted pressure to suppress pages criticizing the Russian government.
