A great course for those interested in mediation. I use their slides as the definitive cheat sheet for literature references. 😊
Come learn about mediation from a leading expert in the field @ildiazm (and me) at the @UWBiostat Summer Institutes!

Also not so great with context.
Great work with wide application. Congrats @AaronWHudson
Check out our new pre-print available on ArXiv! In joint work with Ali Shojaie and @mcaronebstat , we introduce a new framework for inference on function-valued parameters in non- & semi-parametric models.

Thank you to @yc_yc_yc_yc for sharing this great read by @uhlily phenomenalworld.org/analysis…. I encourage my @UWBiostat colleagues to give it a read. #causaltwitter
Great talk @UWBiostat by @biosbenk . Showing off the usefulness of two-phase sampling once again.

Wrote some ... questionable .... code for simulations. First time using regex + pivot_longer and it was amazing. #rstats #tidyverse
Great work by @jtleek and his team. This will be my go-to introduction for new researchers in the field of data science.

shorturl.at/wAW25 Poor scientific reporting by @guardian. An 8 page preprint that used PCA to identify 6 groupings of COVID19 symptoms via self reported app users. With authors acknowledging that it's unlikely it can be used for prediction and data validity is questionable
As an F1 graduate student attending a university in the USA, I’m incredibly saddened by the obvious threat from the administration towards me and my fellow students. We have no power to fight back. I hope @uwsph will take care of it’s students that want to stay in Seattle.

A quick piece by Ruth Etzioni on the necessity of uncertainty when constructing Covid-19 models.

The White House is claiming 100’000s of tests per week coming soon. I wonder if those numbers are for the US only or if they are including tests that they will sell to other countries.

Those sharing their symptoms to friends and family are incredibly brave. I coughed once yesterday and started panicking that someone might suspect me.

Suddenly I could not open any pdf files on my computer that I downloaded. To fix it I ran the command
find . -type f -name *.pdf -exec xattr-cr \;
The strangest issue I’ve ever had. #Mac #coding thank you @StackOverflow

#rstats Q: Is there a way to prespecify settings of a function that I pass as an argument? There may be a simple way to do this. I'm not in love with using "..." as I want to call "complicated_function once", and "simple_function" many times. e.g.
