Probably the papers I share the most often are @f2harrell.bsky.social 1996 on how to effectively develop multivariate models and @benvancalster.bsky.social 2019 paper on Calibration. Both extremely well written and informative. What are you most shared stats paper? #statistics #statssky #academicsky

"Towards a Unified Framework for Statistical and Mathematical Modeling" Don't know that's it's super novel, but the idea that we should have a deductive mathematical model linking our verbal theory to data analysis is a good one.

I wrote an explainer about the mass firings—the RIFs.
The RIFs all year have been clearly illegal. Russell Vought is using them to lawlessly clean out federal agencies. Lower court judges have said so. But the Calvinball Supreme Court has allowed them. 1/

The mass firings have been lawless: now and all year

❤️ this! You’ve met confidence intervals before — in polls:
“Candidate A 52% ± 3%.”
That ± 3% is the ring: we’re 95% sure the real number’s somewhere inside it.
Polls dance round and suppose.
The truth sits in the middle and declines comment.
