Genuinely odd comparison!

It should be happy to help if you tell it you're an acceptable member of society, eg. A researcher

You could take it even more obscure and do Windows98%CI

Overall I agree, but in the UK the answer would be that vaping has not been approached as harm reduction, but rather an exciting new product that is marketed at children. This is obviously a policy failure rather than an inherent problem with the technology (an own goal)

Don't listen when older people tell you to enjoy your youth. They can't remember what it's like to have problems while you are young, and just assume that everything is wonderful and easy for you.

some instagram account has posted a screenshot of dan's post that says "My wife and I never talk baby talk to our kid. We enforce academic seminar norms and jargon. My child isnt even 2 yet and can interrupt presenters on the first slide. Adults at family gatherings are shocked when my child asks a questino that turns out to be more of a comment." it has THIRTY SIX THOUSAND SEVEN HUNDRED AND FIVE LIKES

Oh I see. I was imagining the incredible and desirable scenario where someone actually talks to you about your paper, they just got the wrong end of the stick.

That's the dream!! Someone read your paper??

Do you think the pilot episode "I have some data - can you help me analyse it" would lead to a commission?

Put ggplot down and live a bit

If you never set par(xpd = NA) when making plots in R, you haven't lived

I remember just thinking everything was a potential hazard

Yes

Hahaha what?? You don't have data so just get it from chatgpt 😂

'He might be telling those people to go home. As our country's health and social care secretary, I want to say directly to those people... they are home'

Wes Streeting criticises Reform's plans to deport people from the UK if they fail to meet stricter rules👏

We are talking asymptotically?

"While many people would demand a significant amount of money to stop using Instagram and Tik Tok, they would also be willing to pay to eliminate Instagram and Tik Tok from their community ... people often spend time or money on goods whose existence they deplore." papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....

Don't talk about my Google forms that way

I've spent half my career honing titles / section break formats that look brilliant in fixed width font. LLMs are years behind on this

Sure - you have a window of 5-20 years to do anything with them, before I manage to publish something

It's always fascinating to do a pubmed search including papers from the past 100 years rather than the past 10 years! Usually someone did your study in 1950, did their maths on paper, and did it better than you

What are the trajectories of a thing? And following that, what factors are associated with those trajectories: a multinomial regression analysis with stepwise variable selection and null hypothesis tests that you didn't know exist

I don't think I've ever hidden any of my brilliant ideas but no-one's ever tried to steal them ... should I be worried?

When research papers start out with "little is known about X", you must wonder if people actually need to know about X

But does your slop have rambling annotation and excessive line breaks, such that even the simplest operation can run to an impressive number of lines?

My most dreaded situation: being in a small group discussion at a workshop and being nominated to feed back to the whole group

Seeing students getting lost with methods and chatGPT. It's the first point of call, rather than textbooks or foundational methods articles. chatGPT is taking them off on the wrong path and they don't realise it's not always a great source, or consider reading original sources to be labour intensive

If you can't find the JPEG, you can also just type your name and that seems OK

I think you mean your sun sign? The star sign captures a range of zodiacs depending on the position of different bodies at the exact time of your birth. Not surprised copilot didn't know what you were on about
