Do you ever think about the fact that Wikipedia is the last good major website on the internet? You aren't bombarded with ads. It doesn't try to push video on you, and it doesn't redirect you to a scam site.

First try at a #TidyTuesday dataset. This one was on the most recent FIDE International Chess Federation's rankings. I decided to create a map exploring which countries give rise to the most Grand Masters. I enjoyed it a lot!

Today I had the pleasure of presenting our R and Quarto-based reproducible analysis pipeline for a large multicenter RCT at #useR2025. The Clinical Trials session was a wonderful platform for exchange and inspiration. Thanks to all attendees and organizers who made this great conference happen!

Today marked a great start to this year’s #user2025 conference at Duke university. I especially enjoyed @hadley.nz‘s insightful and humorous keynote. Now I’m very much looking forward to my own talk on Saturday. See you there!

Machine learning is only truly effective and efficient for a small number of tasks when done right.
Large Language Models in particularly are only good for a small subset of Machine Learning tasks. None of these tasks are best done with a single monolithic "AI" machine.

Tino Chrupalla im Brennpunkt, Beatrix von Storch in den Tagesthemen – bei der ARD wird schon fieberhaft überlegt, welche Kriegsverbrecher reanimiert werden können, um den 80. Jahrestag der Befreiung am 8. Mai einigermaßen ausgewogen zu gestalten.

It’s #POCUS time again. Elderly patient w/ proximal femur fracture accompanied by most severe pain. Due for emergency surgery, but couldn’t even be moved to the table properly. Quick fascia iliaca plane block before any other actions were taken solved it.
Femoral nerve on the right.

It’s time for #POCUS - #ICU edition. Elderly patient admitted with (among others) dyspnea. Instant bedside ultrasound reveals substantial pleural effusion. Quick diagnosis, quick treatment.

There ain’t nothing better than some holiday #POCUS
In-plane #PENG block for left pertrochanteric femur fracture. It’s how baby Jesus would have wanted his parents’ #anesthesia to go.
Performed using the Butterfly #IQ3
Merry Christmas! 🎄
