This webpage is such a great example of elegance in data visualization. A simple design that brings out the depth of the data being shown.
Points, also, for the annotations and for clear links to the data files.
Bookmarked this as a standard for my own future work.

I'm ecstatic to share that preorders are now open for the AI Snake Oil book! The book will be released on September 24, 2024.
@randomwalker.bsky.social and I have been working on this for the past two years, and we can't wait to share it with the world.

I just designed the world's worst webpage.
I am late to the game, but it's a big achievement for me.
It's the first webpage I've designed entirely on my own using HTML and CSS, without using any intermediate platform like Wordpress or Wix.
Hoping it'll be something worth visiting in 3-4 years.

So much of my difficulty in learning statistics comes from figuring out the correct terms and phrases to use, not the concepts themselves.
I've said it before - learning quant is often a challenge of linguistics, semantics, or memory, not always logic or deduction.

I'm in a policy program, and I can say with some confidence that policy can't function without theory from the humanities (and the sciences, but we're not talking about the sciences here).
The decline of the humanities also contributes to the decline of policy.
The decline of the humanities also contributes to the decline of policy.
The big move in the humanities funding world that people are finally talking about is Mellon abandoning humanities research in the academy. But the other big move is that the SSRC is also leaving behind support for the humanistic social sciences in favor of policy.
Saw an announcement about a new fellowship for "policy-relevant causal research designed to innovate and evaluate cost-effective and scalable policy solutions" and then went poking around the org's website; was struck by the extent to which this seems to be the focus now www.ssrc.org/programs/arn...

A really well-made documentary on life along India's borders.
A much-needed respite from panic-striken narratives of borders which permeate so much social media discourse these days.
