I completely agree; I've found it much harder to self-learn the stats than the software side of things. Sibling post makes a good point, but I think the history of stats vs. comp sci bears weight here too; having many people want to learn stats outside academia is a much newer phenomenon than people doing the same with programming. Anyone have any good resources for self-teaching stats? I have a BS in math but only took one stats course, and it was as terrible as all intro-stats classes are. I have a strong, proof-based understanding of probability theory, but haven't found a similar approach to stats. It all seems to be "if data looks like this, use this test, watch for these pitfalls" which is terrible for building intuition.
