New workshop alert!
DRA + Forschungszentrum Jülich are hosting:
Better Software Architecture, Better Software, Better Research
🗓 13 Nov 2025
Most research software focuses on what the code does.
This workshop focuses on how to structure it so it remains reusable and adaptable.

we love options, but python packaging has too many.

Packaging guru Jeremiah Paige wrote about our values-based rubric for selecting:
🌱 free & open
🤝 inclusive
📐 standards-compliant
💪 well-supported
🎯 opinionated (less paralysis!)

Now I'm also looking for a research software engineer to implement a pile of research results to R packages loo, posterior, bayesplot, projpred, priorsense, brms or/and Python packages ArviZ, Bambi and Kulprit. Apply by email with no specific deadline (see contact info at users.aalto.fi/~ave/)
I'm now also looking for a postdoc with strong Bayesian background and interest in developing Bayesian cross-validation theory, methods and software. Apply by email with no specific deadline (see contact information at users.aalto.fi/~ave/).

Others, please share
I'm looking for a doctoral student with Bayesian background to work on Bayesian workflow and cross-validation (see my publication list users.aalto.fi/~ave/publica... for my recent work) at Aalto University.

Apply through the ELLIS PhD program (dl October 31) ellis.eu/news/ellis-p...

arXiv will no longer accept review articles and position papers unless they have been accepted at a journal or a conference and complete successful peer review.

This is due to being overwhelmed by a hundreds of AI generated papers a month.

Yet another open submission process killed by LLMs.
