I'm a faculty at CSU Stan, I'm interested in #rstats #healthyAging #quartoPub #python #statistics. I might share content related to quantitative methods from a diverse number of fields.
This list might be useful for some of my contacts.
I've started a Starter Pack for the Language on the Move research community 🥳
For members of the research group, contributors to the blog/podcast.
Please shout out if you're part of the LOTM community and I'll add you/tag suggestions (or lmk if you're on there but would prefer not to be)

Sharing the analysis and the code along with the history is very positive peculiar journalism. They did everything in R which is great. You can explore the github repository. Of course, the result is not positive for Baltimore but I'm happy on how the authors reported the analysis process. #rstats
This is an amazing (and infuriating) story, complete with Github repos of their analysis!

I've finally got around to curating a selection of films about the #climate crisis 🎥

There's lot of mediocre climate films out there, but for me these stand out head & shoulders above the rest 🎞️

They make excellent resources for classrooms, lecture halls, or community cinema's 🎬

“The researchers aim to show that the ‘inevitability’ of AI is just a marketing frame perpetrated by the industry and that pushback is a lot more possible than we often see.” Yes!

#rstats I'm looking for tidy tools for categorical / frequency data.
Data sets in frequency form or case form can be tidy, but have different model & graphics syntax.
What about tables, matrices and arrays, often so convenient frequency data?
Does anything exist? Seems like a big tidy gap.

The Origin of the Research University
Universities have existed for more than a thousand years — and for almost all of that time, they weren’t centers of research. What changed in 19th century Germany?

I tried to schedule a future appointment to get my 2.5 years old daughter vaccinated against COVID and I've found out some clinics and farmacies only accept 3 years or older kids. I vaccinated my daughter the last year and no problem. Did the guidelines change? #covid19 #vaccines

With tabs it has never been easier to reconstruct altitudinal shifts of biogeographical systems over time. Whether in the ocean 🏝️, shallow seas 🪸 or mountains ⛰️; tabs can project spatial configurations shaped by climatic conditions.
