Ahaha I haven't heard of that paper since grad school but I immediately knew what you are talking about.

But see they even use |> as a pipe which is R 4+ native pipe. Too much for coincidence!

Exploring pipe syntax real-world use cases | Google Cloud Blog Learn how organizations are using pipe syntax, an extension to GoogleSQL, to streamline data transformations, build reports, and analyze logs.

Google released a blog post with something similar last year: cloud.google.com/blog/product...

People love piping! (Me included!)

How often do you floss?? 😂

Technically there's 12 weeks of unpaid leave mandated federally (for companies >= 50 employees) and California has up to 8 weeks of paid family leave (can take 12 weeks total leave for companies >= 5).

Obviously not even in the same ballpark to other countries but it is not 0 everywhere.

Don't forget the variation where the database entry has been copy pasted from somewhere then gets a special white space. Looking at you, Confluence... 😤

Love the second image. Literally every "great" dataset ever. 😂

Monty Python understood p-hacking

I took this course and think the book is pretty good for an intro! Also the author is here! @stevenstrogatz.com

On top of all this, last I checked, CRAN didn't even store binary Linux packages (??!) which requires Posit Package Manager and some extra setup. Python's ecosystem (PyPI + uv) on the contrary works a lot smoother.

For internal codebases I agree - it's kind of nice to minimize API changes and run reverse dependency checks.

But for majority of other uses, the CRAN's rules (last I check doesn't even enforce linting/testing) seems like a solution to a problem needing proper package/R binary management (e.g. uv).

Last time I did it my letter was rejected because it was not "signed, dated and was not on an official letterhead". I uploaded it to an automated system from my own account... so I ended up using my company's official Word template and scribbled my signature lol. These places are in another timeline

I hope he doesn't get demoted to Red Bull.

Same here! I just learned recently of some Linux distros with pre-installed nVidia drivers. I will try Nobara soon: nobaraproject.org on a separate hard drive.

I don't play many games nowadays so if it can run World of Warcraft, I am good to go!

Games run faster on SteamOS than Windows 11, Ars testing finds Lenovo Legion Go S gets better frame rates running Valve’s free operating system.

Looks like Linux is becoming to-go OS even for gaming: arstechnica.com/gaming/2025/...

There's a function in R in a fairly popular package with a cyclomatic complexity of 1989. 😂

Virtually every data science job description involves Python, whereas not so many R. Maybe that's big part of it.

Thanks, ChatGPT! 😜

"AI uses neural nets which is what our brains also do"

I mean... the two things are named the same. Doesn't mean they are the same.

Yeah. They could call it... Safari. 🙄

Is he installing it in... a system Python environment? 😬

That code screams ChatGPT 😅

So THAT'S what they meant when they said "PhD-level AI".

After a glass of this brandy, you'll only ever remember your very last thought!

You broke it lol

Insightful!

(Sorry, had to. 😅)

Gotta get those clicks! 🙄

Literally could've said I use such and such browser for this cool feature.

I mean it already feels like that on Facebook and LinkedIn... 🤷

The main example for multilevel models is actually very similar to your example , I think it's about coffee shops!
