@ivdbout Interesting. I'm finding a lot more variant analysis/visualisation programs written in R more than anything else.

An interesting analysis of voter categories in the upcoming election https://t.co/z8Q68BmUC2

[David van Heerden @DavidR_VH]

Overall, this is an interesting approach to constructive reflection🤔

I'm attempting to read Kierkegaard's "Stages on Life's Way" again. In the preface to 'In Vino Veritas' he offers an intriguing perspective on the difference between recollection and memory.

[David van Heerden @DavidR_VH]

Recollection can be further triggered by contradiction in the sense that avoiding situations that remind you of what you're trying to recall can lead to distraction from adequately reviving those emotions and experiences.

Nzimande has issued a gazette to dissolve the NSFAS board with immediate effect. While a necessary step in the right direction, I don't think it absolves the institutions flaws entirely. https://t.co/9sHchFLDQF

South Africa's election management body has done a good job for 30 years: here's why https://t.co/fClxbuVR0e

A heartfelt and informative article on the potential in using bacteriophage treatments to fight antibiotic resistance.

Excellent conversation on trends and predictions for the 2024 ZA elections based on the data. This is really something we're missing out on compared to other countries.

I swear the new CRISPR sickle cell anemia treatment is just a Harry Potter spell

Thought provoking discussion on how the use of objectives, intention, inclusion, and assessment can optimise the impact of journal clubs.

Tried a different scoring pattern today👀

[David van Heerden @DavidR_VH]

You can get more out of books you read by taking advantage of episodic memory and by making associations.
Something I'm guilty of is not rereading enough, which contributes significantly to extracting and retaining everything in the text.
