I think you're probably right--but it's worth noting that it depends on the "space of tank behaviors". It's an open question whether there exists a tank that "strongly dominates" other tank strategies. One

That's fair--I'm definitely looking forward to when it's added, since it will make putting up quick prototypes with R very convenient!

In answer to your question -- my sense is that you can spin up super nice dashboards using shiny, and those will be opinionated HTTP interfaces. If you want to combine the flexibility of a bonafide web framework, and R shiny dashboards, you

It's funny, the article says that none of Terman's Termites became examplars of genius, but Lee Cronbach is definitely in the top 1% of most influential psychologists. To name a few accomplishments.. * If wikipedia is correct, he

Last year I read a book on combinatorics [1], and did a fair number of exercises each chapter. Normally, worked on it for an hour in the morning, and then 4 - 8 hours a week spread over nights / weekends. Looking back, it was pretty ta

That's a good point--I used to keep tests outside the package, but it seems like some projects make good use of having people who open issues run the unit tests beforehand.

Woah, I had no idea the testing module existed. One thing I've found useful in pandas are the DataFrame .query and .eval methods [1]. They're nice for cutting out tons of lambda functions in pipes. E.g. df.somemethod() \ .

The danger with surprising results is that they often use the surprise part as an excuse for small sample sizes, etc.. Another way to think about this situation is to flip it and say that surprising (and spurious) results are more likely fr

Coming from neuroscience also, I can really relate to this. I'm just glad that people like Neuroskeptic are casting light on the problem. I was really surprised at the degree to which neuroscience is proof by brain graph with lit up bl

AFAIK you usually have pip (system default python), pip2 (corresponds to python2), and pip3 (corresponds to python3). Like others have mentioned, a few distributions have python 3 as the default python. In later versions you can invoke pip

In another thread last week, someone mentioned that 1-based indexing is more common in numerical analysis, so it has appeal for languages that are "math focused". Anyone have insight on that? As far as I can recall, I've seen

That's fair and was helpful to hear! I had dimensionality reduction in the back of my mind, and now that you mention it, your point about conceptual sparsity definitely seems important here.

This title seems a bit confusing, since PCA is a form of unsupervised feature selection (or rather, feature weighting). The title seems like it has the form "<Specific method> vs <Broader category method fits in>".

Often people are a little more careful reporting these kinds of outcomes, but it seems okay here. Undergrad psychology programs tend to have more female than male students, so their first result may be related to the second.

Agreed. I've been scratching my head over whether the rough debugging has been a lack of tools available, or me not knowing where to look. (From other comments, it looks like there are a few promising tools out there)
