All the bombs in the history of the world going off couldn't recreate the shock and awe of watching humans go around the moon *exactly* as planned.

Look, for my money the absolute game changer technologies right now are batteries and biosciences, not statistically modeling a mid conversation, but you do you.

Yes! Definitely the “will they won’t they?” For dinosaur lovers!

Of course I spelled Jurassic wrong :facepalm:

a vote for velociraptor is actually a vote for deinonychus which jurrasic park mixed up for dramatic effect. deinonychus discovered by john ostrom kickstarted the birds as dinosaurs understanding too. clearly the best one. trex also cool af. ty

It’s unethical to withhold them imo ;-)

this comment lacks consistency

Unionized ProPublica staff are on strike over AI, layoffs, and wages A key issue is protections against layoffs from AI

New: 150 unionized ProPublica workers are on strike TODAY over AI, layoff protections, wages, and more.

They're asking readers to not visit ProPublica or engage with content on other platforms. It's the first work stoppage of its kind at the newsroom.

maybe this is a bit much, but i judge schools by how good their library access to journals is.

have you tried turning it off and on again?

McGill is an awesome place! Looks like you are having a great time too!

if you use public funds to pillage academics for athletics, you too can have two teams in the Final Four

100% on board with this plan

Novel g-computation algorithms for time-varying actions with recurrent and semi-competing events Background: A core aspect of epidemiology is determining the impacts of potential public health interventions over time. With long follow-up periods, epidemiologists may need to consider semi-competin...

A new pre-print, led by one of the many students I am lucky to work with. It describes an extension of g-computation for studying causal effects on recurrent events (eg, hypertension) where there are competing events (eg, death)

I hate what we're doing in Venezuela
I hate what we're doing in Iran
I hate what we're doing in America

I cannot wait until the people in this regime are gone

turns out these are not what you might expect.

Oh yea i mean i know there is some small monetary advantage to that, but its just so needlessly destructive.

Watching hegseth describe all the military assets the us has destroyed. It’s so so dumb. He is listing them off but …to what end, what is the point? Is this what he thinks makes him a tough guy? It’s like a HS student bragging about beating up a weak grade school student .

WTF is even the point of this? Dudes in power just like killing whales?

one of the rep candidates in nc is running on a platform of supporting masculinity, but i thought getting support was emasculating. very confusing indeed

I will never get used to the disdain our country holds for brown and Black children.

From Palestine to Iran to Sudan, we normalize the destruction of schools and hospitals and daycares. We reduce children to death tolls and their futures to rubble with no consequence or second thought.

On the plus side I recently started a position where I finally have access to one of my fav journals, stats in medicine. It’s a small consolation amidst a mountain of miserable news.

Frankly, I expected better from a FIFA Peace prize winner

The world could be such a nice place if we allowed it. It's all so goddamn unnecessary. There's no need for any of it. It's so beautiful here. It should be so cool to be alive

This one is definitely more my speed

In these dark times this is legitimately hilarious.

Yea I agree. That is why it’s important to consider the per protocol analysis from the get go instead of just adding it as an after thought. Surprising how few good per p analyses are out there at least in the majors.

I would argue that the womens hockey team both played better than the men (who got lucky, imo since canada was playing better overall) and are also better at representing the US right now given their declining to meet with ...him

make principled per protocol analysis a thing
