19.02.2026 19:40 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Added a statistical analysis tab to explore Bayesian partial pooling visualization (cc @rmcelreath.bsky.social). Added some model explanations too.

Amazing work. I was particularly interested in visualizations for studies on dexmedetomidine for investigating dosage, timing, risk of bias.
Vibe-coded this app: arthur-albuquerque.github.io/dexmedetomid... Example visualization attached.
code: github.com/arthur-albuq...
I'd love some feedback
I will investigate the best approach and do it! thanks again

For Roo, I believe the reference directory for skills is

This is so cool. Thank you!
Please add suport to Googleβs Antigravitiy, Positron Assistant and VScodeβs extension Roo Code.
These are more scientific-oriented softwares
@matthewluney.bsky.social et al really amazing work, congratulations.
Quick Q: you stated that "Moderate certainty evidence indicates that dexmedetomidine is effective". However, CINeMA showed low confidence rating for dexmedetomidine vs. placebo (Table S22).
Why did you reference it as "moderate"?
Important research question!
13.02.2026 10:53 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0What do you think about multinomial-dirichlet? Itβs been implemented in brms
13.02.2026 10:49 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Isnβt this formula utility very limited?
11.02.2026 23:14 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0itβs pretty good, especially for ordinal models. brms is my go-to in general
11.02.2026 01:35 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0is the code available? sounds interesting
11.02.2026 00:26 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0try Harrellβs rmsb. It has a maximum likelihood method or something alike
11.02.2026 00:25 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Great work, can I have the PDF?
10.02.2026 23:44 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Loved the final discussion. Canβt wait to someone build a package for workflows π
05.02.2026 12:31 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Yeah, like integrating random effects
02.02.2026 13:27 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Very cool work, Solomon. Do you/McElreath discuss about marginal mean?
02.02.2026 10:42 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0awesome! Newbie Q: what would be the meaning of a conditional mean if itβs not the average? Iβd love to read more about it, any suggested references?
31.01.2026 15:55 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0I will explore this model for diagnostic test analysis, letβs see how it works
27.01.2026 12:37 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Loved it
27.01.2026 09:59 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Very cool. It should be straightforward to extend sequential monitoring of population metrics to external validation sample size calculations.
I plan doing it for an upcoming project
