   Ugh now I am extremely curious. This is a lead at least lol.

   Yep. I have a deep love/hate relationship with R. This is one of those decisions that I just do not understand. In your mind, why do you imagine a set of improvements won’t be made? Otherwise, for now, working with Python and R using t

   I strongly prefer `dplyr` and the R stack for table processing and visualization. But, recently I’ve been working with much larger scale data than R can handle (thanks to R’s base int32 limitation) and have been needing to use Python instea

   In addition to stats, R is widely used in computational biology and bioinformatics domains. It’s also widely used in the biopharma industry for a variety of other purposes.

   I’ve used it for several years now, and can’t recommend it enough. It does feel like magic :)

   Looks interesting, I’m excited to give it a try. Is there any plan to have it create a manifest (like renv.lock) that can be used directly with the posit publishing system?

   Yep, I had the same exact thoughts. Would like to see the partial residuals plotted... Are they over fitting their model? I cannot understand how we can look at a set of data like that, see that there are, perhaps , * maybe* some associat

    Thanks for sharing. It’s very nice to hear from others with similar experiences. I agree about the mindfulness component too. I’m curious how you capture pics. I use my iPhone. Over the past few years, I’ve also started taking short videos,

    That’s neat that you used the word “feel”… it’s the exact word I use when I try to describe my experience. For example, I have a great spatial memory, which is obviously not due to my ability to “see” things in my mind. Instead, when asked

    Awesome! When I explain it to people, I always ask them to close their eyes and picture an apple on a table. I then ask them what color the apple is. Everyone I’ve ever done this with (except a sibling) answers a color. I then say, “to me,

    I struggle to relate to this. I have aphantasia, which means I can’t see anything in my mind’s eye. This is most painful when I try to “imagine” my wife’s face, my family, friends, favorite parts of nature, etc, but am left with nothing.

    I want one so badly, some of that footage is just unreal My first guess was that it’s a clean $30k. Now I’m going to add a digit and guess $100k.

    Any resources you’d recommend? I haven’t used Duolingo in over a decade, but recently I’ve become interested in learning conversational Spanish.

    The redistribution of “child free” & “not yet parent” from 2017-2023 is massive… a shift of over 10%. I see this anecdotally in my Gen Z/Millenial friend groups, but the numbers backing the observation up is wild. But frankly, I un

    They feel magical to me as well, but I can enjoy that feeling while understanding that it’s just a prediction machine. I don’t think the latter part can be explained to someone who doesn’t care all that much.

    Another +1 for FreeTaxUSA. This is my second year using it, and I think they do a great job. It’s more “hands on”, but I think they offer a strong value.

    Destin from Smarter Every Day (YouTube) has a wonderful video demonstrating this effect [0]. I’d recommend watching the whole thing, but you can see how much of an effect it has starting around the 6:00 mark. [0] https://youtu.be

    This was honestly an extremely tough read for me. Very well written, and beautiful nonetheless. Some of this only can come from someone who’s walked in that world before. I have a lot of PTSD from my doctoral work with mice. My gut reaction

    I miss it too. I think by the end I was far more invested in the characters rather than the plot though.

    So will this only work with standard Python? If I start pulling in Numpy, igraph, scikit, etc, will it still work? The article mentions Numpy as a gang up when trying to use Python across multiple systems, but it doesn’t address whether Fun

    Oh that’s an interesting idea. I know I could google it, but I wonder washing machines originally was called an “automatic clothes washer” or something similar before it became widely adopted.
