A few more days left to join our team as a postdoctoral fellow 👇

Extremely cool data visualisation of a big tree! What is particularly cool here is that the camera can be moved literally anywhere in the point cloud (in contrast to older 3D plots of point clouds) e.g. you can follow the trunk up and down

@CLEinBNE My information might be out of date, but I think I've read that one should always replace a helmet after a crash regardless of how it looks...(the foam being good for one impact only)

@archaeologyart the soy sauce residue around the mouth👌... who knew?

Thanks all for your comments! I've decided to record some videos & post them online so you can watch them when it suits you. I'll share more about it in a few weeks. Contents based on my @CRC_MathStats books https://t.co/WltDxBk5do & https://t.co/39gVXi8d30

Labor’s national conference will end with zero action on the much-anticipated move for an end to native forest logging in Australia. This is the tragedy of logging right now in Tasmania’s forests. C’Mon @AlboMP end native forest logging.

Great news for #urbanpollinators in Newcastle (NSW, Australia) which is to become a 'pollinator-friendly city' with 'native-friendly foliage corridors'

Congratulations on the approval of your initiative Dr @Eliz_Adamczyk 👏👏

[Elizabeth Adamczyk (Morris) @Eliz_Adamczyk]

Proud to have received unanimous support from @CityNewcastle Councillors to create a pollinator program to support & empower pollinator friendly practices and planting in public & private spaces, and reconnect our broken biodiversity corridors 🦋🐝🐜🌾 https://t.co/5okC3FzLio

@TimTeaFan @IsabellaGhement also very helpful if you start using cross validation in your modelling workflow 👌

[Ben R Fitzpatrick @benrfitzpatrick]

@TimTeaFan @IsabellaGhement `recipes` 📦 will also make your feature engineering workflow easily reproducible (useful if, for example, later on you want to use your fitted model to predict from different data which will also need to be 'pre-processed' identically to the data used to fit the model)
