Sap? How about preparing them a delicious, succulent meal? π
22.01.2025 00:55 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Finally, as others have raised, we do not have long-term evidence on the impacts of COVID-19 and reinfections, especially in the level of granularity required for individualised decisions like the one you mentioned. But that has more to do with how comfortable you are with risk than anything else?
15.01.2025 00:31 β π 2 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Another point I'd like to raise is the clickbaity title, including the conflation I raised above. This is something to consider in the era of misinformation, given your role as a science communicator (which I think you do a great job on, btw)
15.01.2025 00:31 β π 2 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0What I am trying to understand here is why evidence at a population level is being extrapolated to personal decisions and individual circumstances. Each person (and child) is different; I'm not sure about this direct 'translation' from one situation to another

There's less than 24hrs to make a submission: aph.gov.au/Parliamentar...
a burger might be technically both a sandwich and a roll, but in reality a burger is a burger

From what I gathered, you're working with previous users of Stata, are you intending to help them transition into R or help them integrate between the two? For 2, I'd get stuck in the definition of sandwich. For example, is a burger a sandwich?
17.11.2024 22:22 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Happy to see this platform finally taking off. I look forward to learning and connecting with folks with similar interests (epidemiology, data linkage, social epi, justice health, twin studies, etc.) #epi #episky
12.11.2024 01:34 β π 8 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0it's wild that R, the ubiquitous statistical computing language, was co-created by a MΔori prof (Ross Ihaka)Β β and yet the vast majority of scientists who use R don't know
this is like inventing the toaster. possibly the largest impact of a single member of an indigenous community on modern science
I think the best selling point is that it will give the analyst freedom to find their own 'style' of working by using two complementary tools. R can do anything Stata does and more, but Stata works and presents results in a way that R does not (or at least requires time investment to get there)
