Experimentology is out today!!! A group of us wrote a free online textbook for experimental methods, available at experimentology.io - the idea was to integrate open science into all aspects of the experimental workflow from planning to design, analysis, and writing.

A surprising number of data sets in linguistics do not converge with lmer() when you include random slopes in the model. I don’t think this is about the failure to use an optimizer (btw, it shouldn’t be necessary *all the time*).
