Esta tarde, Antena3 emite "Indefensa ante el amor", cuyo título original es "In bed with a killer"

In bed = Indefensa
with a = ante el
killer = amor

GO WELL MARIANNE

“I got you to kiss goodnight...”

Very sad to learn of the passing of Marianne Faithfull in London today at the age of 78.

It seems somehow appropriate to republish the words she posted following David’s death in 2016: www.instagram.com/p/DFdqZKExNG...

Thanks! I have code that makes these in either Python or R (Python version: github.com/nrennie/gene...)

Essentially
- for each square, draw a bunch of horizontal lines then jitter them slightly
- repeat for vertical lines
- repeat for desired grid size

yeah, most of the time i have the environment pane open or the files plane, unless i am plotting something :)

my latest tip is using `browseURL()` to open anything (not only the browser... for example browseURL(".") will open the current working directory with the file explorer.

Teaching real-world economic & financial data analysis in #Rstats has helped my SAIS students get jobs at the IMF/WB, The White House, and lots of other kick ass places.

Why are we still burdening students with $925/year software when open source is the future?

#rstats I was trained on Zelig, which looks like it's no longer on CRAN. Is there a consensus as to which package is the best replacement for the kind of things that it was used to do?

'MatchIt' is an excellent #Rstats package! We used it to match each person with stroke to 5 adults without stroke, ensuring similar propensity scores (i.e. similar covariate distributions) at baseline, when all participants were stroke-free. doi.org/10.1093/ptj/...
