This one is a foundational one: #ExperimentalTrialDesign the ΜΆrΜΆiΜΆgΜΆhΜΆtΜΆ Bayesian way, with no other than Scott Berry, from Berry Consultants, LLC!
Enjoy, and happy new year, my dear Bayesians π
My #AdvancedRegressionModeling course, written with the brilliant Ravin Kumar and @tomicapretto.bsky.social, is now available through my Topmate profile!
So do give it a try and let me know what you think in the comments π
See you soon in the Intuitive Bayes' Discourse π

Must be some config? It happens to me in Positron, which I installed recently-ish, but not in VS Code, which I've been using for a while. I don't remember if I changed anything to make it work that way

If you had to bet against a free throw, would you bet against the first or the second attempt? What if the player were a rookie? And what if it were a specific rookie? Let's try to find out.

Congrats! I'm not buying many physical books these days, but this one certainly is worth it!
TIL in Python about

Attempted to execute a cell in a Jupyter Notebook in Positron to see what the dependency installation process was like...
It just worked, no extra dependencies, just Python.
Python data science tooling is healing.
Well, you got very well exposed to and familiar with `pm.draw`, `pm.do`, and `pm.observe`... Not many are that brave ;)
EmpecΓ© con R/RStudio y fue un bajΓ³n cambiar de IDE para Python (terminΓ© en VS Code). Hace poco saliΓ³ la 1Β° versiΓ³n estable de Positron, que mezcla lo mejor de RStudio y VS Code. Como pronto arranco a dar un curso en Python, armΓ© tutorial de instalaciΓ³n:

Polars is so beautiful I can't look at pandas data processing without my eyes bleeding

At PyMC Labs I've been working with a group developing synthetic consumers for marketing research. We just published this white paper with an overview of work in this space -- and we have a blog post coming next week with some experimental results.

We just launched our first white paper!
By 2027, AI-generated consumers could power 50%+ of market research data.

Wow, the material is _so_ clear.
Looking forward to this! Talking about the do-operator and structural causal models in PyMC
Really fantastic to host Jesse Grabowski on the show! I learned so much about #TimeSeries thanks to him. And there is still so much I don't know, so I guess you'll have to come back very soon Jesse ;)

Max GΓΆbel and I recently submitted a paper to the MIT Sloan Conference.
We're using #HSGPs to isolate β½ players' contribution from team effects and introduce Skill- and Performance Above Replacement metrics.
Paper is still WIP, but we put it on Arvix to get first feedback!
