Est-ce que une francophone me dit le traduction correct pour "continuous, categorical, discrete" , et aussi "response variable, predictor variable"? Je veux trouver les mots corrects pour un cours de statistiques. Merci ;) 🇲🇫📈

Excited to share our new paper in @natcomms.nature.com We synthesize causal discovery & inference approaches across traditions (regression adjustment, quasi-expts, SEMs, Granger causality, convergent cross-mapping, and more) into a unified workflow for ecologists. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

surely we can teach the children how to ethically use this product designed for unethical use by unethical people

“if the AI misses a tumor, this will be the human radiologist’s fault... It’s their signature on the diagnosis. This is...an “accountability sink”. The radiologist’s job is not really to oversee the AI’s work, it is to take the blame for the AI’s mistakes." www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-i...

Debates around abolishing ICE remind me a lot of dynamics around ending Texas' drug task force network (employing 700 undercover narcs, + support staff) after the Tulia scandal. Disdained by other LEOs, scorned by the public, they became isolated and got their $$ axed. ICE is headed down that path.

TY! ☺️ One of my biggest life lessons from that 7-year campaign was that nobody *really* knows what's possible till you try. Brings to mind a phrase my great grandfather, an XIT Ranch cowboy, repeated often: "There's never been a horse that can't be rode, never been a cowboy can't be throwed." :)

I'm exhausted. I just gave my 1st in-person, no internet R exam (they were only allowed R code they created during exercises over the semester, in the form of a personal Quarto book). I hate "speed coding", and always preferred take-home exams. I will miss that, but those days are past.

With data from >100k special issues, we set out to tackle this problem. Guest editors publishing in their own issues is a form of "endogeny". In this study, we define special issues with extreme endogeny as Published In Support of Self (PISS). So, how much of this literature is PISS? 4/n

I despise the coining of new acronyms. Except this one: when is a paper in a special issue PISS (Published In Support of Self)? The answer, of course, is way too often.

I'm just worried. Even pre-AI, it was really pulling teeth to get some (not all) PhD students to take the time to look up the formula the R package used, make sure its what they actually want to calculate, and validate what R spits out (note: I don't take students like this anymore)
