How are the notions of causality and statistical dependence connected? I’m excited to share that my master’s thesis exploring this question is now available for download! 📚

Today is the day of the formal epistemology study group meeting. This always brightens my day 🥺😊

Vai chegando as vésperas da eleição e o pessoal usa as pesquisas para pedir voto útil em determinados candidatos.
Se uma parte significativa do eleitorado decide fazer o tal do voto útil no dia da eleição, como é que vocês esperam que as pesquisas vão "acertar" os resultados das urnas? 🤡

Eu não sei qual é a fonte padrão do LaTeX, eu só sei que... Eu me acostumei a escrever apenas no LaTeX 😳
Pergunta aleatória do dia: que fonte vcs gostam de usar quando tão escrevendo?
Eu amo a Lato, tão redondinha, tão legível 🤏🤏🤏

A common mistake in statistics is to confuse the convergence of the empirical distribution with the convergence of estimators and other functions of the data. I see a lot of people saying things like "if we collect more data, it will become normal enough."

Generalized Additive Models (GAMs) for Meta-Regression using brms – Matthew B. Jané
A GAM is a linear or generalized linear model that allows you to model non-linear relationships using splines, smooth functions that allows to model the “wiggiliness” in the data. To my knowledge ther...

This is very interesting! In my ongoing dissertation, I am trying to show more examples of this :)
Just discovered the Causal Quartet by @lucystats.bsky.social, @travisgerke.bsky.social, and @malcolmbarrett.malco.io: four datasets that have the same unadjusted casaul relationship between treatment/outcome but different true effects. This is great for teaching DAG-based causal inference! #rstats

Any stats or machine learning researchers in Blue Sky?
