The NHS is changing trans people back to birth sex on file, meaning we will not be treated appropriately for our bodies.
This is deadly, completely unacceptable, and the result of hateful far right ideology in our politics and healthcare.

Just got a call from a lovely but very nervous Dr, who advised I wouldn't be routinely screened for breast cancer because I'm not indicated as being "biologically female" on the central NHS database and my biology wouldn't indicate I'm at risk.
My records have been altered, which is upsetting.

split-plot designs are analogous to cluster sampling.
blocking is analogous to stratification.

An announcement, which might be of some interest:
In the period 2022-2024, myself and a number of other postdocs on the "CoSInES" and "Bayes4Health" EPSRC grants were involved in organising a number of internal tutorial workshops, on topics relevant to researchers in computational statistics.

Literally no one learns about Carnap during compulsory education, and yet we wonder about the dearth of positive male role models. 🙄 Time to get serious, people.

With turnout around 30%, remember that the results you see in the news must be divided by three to see the support of parties across the whole electorate
And that doesn't account for those not registered etc
The big news, as always, should be the crisis of democracy but who cares about that?

The UK Supreme Court’s transphobic ruling on the definition of woman last week is a defeat for all women—even, ultimately, the self-described feminists celebrating it, and the women who will gain in the short term from their alliance with the carceral state.

The UK's Anti-Trans Ruling Is a Defeat for All Women
Even the self-described feminists celebrating the Supreme Court's attempt to banish trans people from womanhood will pay a heavy price.

Sorry to hear, he was a fantastic scholar on so many levels and really inspired me. Also a unique and engaging prose stylist: he really knew how to use the word “constitutive”!
I regret to information the Bluesky philosophy community that Michael Friedman, noted philosopher of science and ground-breaking historian of Kant, neo-Kantianism, and logical positivism has died. May his memory be a blessing. #philsci

Comparison may be a thief of joy, but it is an undoubtably interesting statistical modeling problem. In my latent chapter I go deep into the general problem of modeling comparisons between pairs of abstract items.

I made a stew with basically everything I could imagine tasting nice with chicken: bay leaves/carrots etc, lentils/beans, sichuan pepper, star anise, potatoes, mushrooms, orange, gochujang, pomegranate molasses, zataar.
It was nice!
