@AJThurston Especially in the ML world.

@Monty_G_HV don't know. but I know from previous publications that the average number of papers per researcher and per author in each discipline has been remarkably stable for decades. Ie, you are probably just seeing changes in the numbers of researchers.

Ed researchers, Common App is hiring for a Data Scientist in our Data Operations team! This is a phenomenal fully remote (forever) job to support and enhance one of the most exciting new data resources in higher education (though I'm obviously biased):

@Burak4YD1N Dolayisiyla assessment superset measurement and evaluation onlarin subset i olarak degerlendirilio bu context e. Ama sinif ici olcme degerlendirme bence daha farkli. Kisinin olcme degerlendirmesi vs kurumun olcme degerlendirmesi

[Mehmet Kaplan, Ph.D. @kaplanbalkes]

@Burak4YD1N Evet higher ed de, ozellikle amerikada, institutional assessment ofisleri var measurement ve evaluation i yapiolar iki farkli adimda. Institutional assessment officer gorursun ama institutional evaluation officer diye bi kavram duymadim.

1/ 🚨 We’ve built an interactive tool that lets you explore the Political Leaning Index for the top 1,000 musical artists in the US!

This index measures the relationship between music streaming patterns across regions and the voting patterns of those regions in the 2020 election

What are the odds of getting Nobel if you are not in that circle (and on top of that, if you are a woman, that's even worse)..

[Evan Weber @EvanWeberPhD]

An absolutely bonkers stat from this Nature article on Nobel Prize winners.

"702 out of 736 researchers who have won science and economics prizes up to 2023 are part of the same academic family"

if you have zero idea about ML, have a problem at hand and want to get your hands dirty, check out @huggingface Tasks

you go to huggingface. co/tasks, pick your problem, try recommended open-source models, at the end of the page there's fine-tuning code too

🚀 ANNOUNCING: The release of my free and open e-book, "Applied #MachineLearning in Python: A Hands-on Guide with Code"! 🎉

🔗 Access it here: https://t.co/kRPpZDexWa

📚 16 chapters packed with well-documented #Python workflows, open-source code, and datasets — with direct links to my YouTube lectures for deeper learning! This e-book blends theory with practical coding and effective visualizations to help you understand and apply #MachineLearning concepts.

⚙️ Try the examples, explore the code, and follow along with hands-on exercises. It’s a living document, so I’ll continue adding new chapters and improving content over time.

I'm here to help you dive into #DataScience and #ML — let’s learn together! I'm having an awesome sabbatical! Stoked!
