priorsense 1.1.1, for prior and likelihood sensitivity analysis, is now in CRAN (n-kall.github.io/priorsense/)

There is now an easier way to select which priors are power-scaled using the new prior tags feature in brms (2.22.11+), which allows focusing the analysis on specific priors.

The statement from NOAA also seems false and disrespectful to our intelligence. “Staff reallocation” implies hundreds of people aren’t being fired but rather moved around. Reality is they’re being fired or “strongly encouraged” to retire.
The statement from NOAA:

Through strategic transformation, staff reallocation, and updated service standards, NWS is ensuring resilience and continuity of mission-critical functions. Reports suggesting otherwise are false and disrespectful.

Fascism at work. Your senators could stop this if they wanted to. Your second amendment claims of need to stand up against tyranny are now laughable. Americans have chosen 1937 Germany. There is still time to turn back but it’s running very short.

RFKjr’s whole goal in life is to be an Instagram wellness influencer pedaling pseudoscientific quackery but instead we made him US Helath and Human Services Secretary.

Everything’s fine now. Definitely no recession and nothing to worry about. No chaos or uncertainty. All the companies are totally doing much better now. 🙄
Also the intentional devaluing of the dollar will definitely help average Americans.

My heart broke for the lost boys as I was of a similar age. Then more genocidal ethnic cleansing. Finally a country forms and is shortly thereafter ripped apart in civil war. To revoke visas is inhumane even for this admin. Marco Rubio will be known as human garbage for as long as he is remembered.

I don’t think people have fully grasped that you can get measles from walking through the same room as someone who has it hours later. Most contagious disease we know.
BREAKING: Houston health officials say an unvaccinated traveler who had a confirmed case of measles was traveling through William P. Hobby Airport last week.
