Congratulations! οΏΌ
οΏΌI love my walkable, convenient transit, elevated subway neighborhood!
Agree! Here in the US, people are influenced by the religious perspective even without realizing it. Even if they don't consider themselves to be religious. It influences both politics and interpersonal interactions. οΏΌοΏΌοΏΌ

I love R for everything statistics, but I've always been a little jealous of statisticians using SPSS Complex Samples or SAS SURVEYSELECT to design their samples.
So I decided to build samplyr, a tidy and pipe-friendly grammar for survey sampling design in #rstats.

Look, this is just textbook scientific method:
Background: Phrenology is pseudoscience.
Experiment: Dogs come in many shapes.
Conclusion: I use phrenology to evaluate people.
Discussion: Buy Huberdude supplements for neck girth and high T flow state optimization.
Some academic publishing contract advice: make sure your contract specifies 1. a qualified human copyeditor will copyedit on the MS; 2. a qualified human proofreader will proofread the MS; 3. that production must have a proper system for version control (!).
Hope you have a quick recovery! οΏΌ
Sending support as a blind scientist. Being a scientist isn't hard; it's the ableism and inaccessibility that make this a difficult career path under ordinary circumstances. And nothing is ordinary now. οΏΌοΏΌ
I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. Itβs dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

I will go further and say that people using the "r"-word are hoping that bringing it back opens the door to bringing back the "n"-word, and is strongly correlated with the people who want to carve off trans rights as a stepping stone to claw back gay rights in general
Where's the alt text? οΏΌ
Dogs are very important to me :) I love hearing about their expressions and what they're doing, which lots of alt texts don't include, especially the AI ones. Yours are great.
Thanks for all the dog alt texts!
I made this ASL video about the SALUTE/ACTUAR acronyms re: observing ICE, but @bsky.app won't let me post here because, best I can tell, hands are moving too much? Anyway, if you have a moment to share, many d/hh folks have 1st lang that's not English.

Thank you for including alt text οΏΌ
Think about how annoyed you get when your connection is bad and photos aren't loading so you don't know what people are talking about.
That's what Blind people regularly have to deal with when you fail to copy and paste text from your articles into alt text, fellow journalists.
Our new Mayor uses alt text? Most politicians and journalists can't be bothered. Amazing! Thanks!
Yeah I really don't get it. My mom isn't going to start a new exercise routine at this age. She also has other contraindications. But the subject of these medications keeps coming up.
I'm so sorry about the reply guys. I've been appreciating reading your thoughts since early Covid. οΏΌοΏΌ
