@rustie5555 One of those commonalities is being tied to the two-party system. Their entire careers are based on it. GroKo would completely undermine that, so they won't consider it unless there's already a crisis that has thrown the two-party system into danger.
People keep asking me if New Zealand actors would consider going on strike too.
Our Screen Industry Workers Act 2022 prohibits the right to strike.
We LEGALLY CANNOT do what the #SagAftraStrike is doing.
Take a moment to let that sink in.
@ANSchmidtLebuhn @jholbo1 There were also periods of waste-laying because "those people aren't following Jesus in quite the right way". Tended to interact with the who got to be king where stuff.
@realHollanders Because mu_Omega_L has already been sampled in each iteration by the time the model block code gets executed. Again, I'm only learning this stuff so might be wrong or over-simplified. 3/3
@realHollanders In other words sampling notation is NOT saying "sample from the distribution" - that sampling takes place elsewhere in Stan execution and not in the model block code. So, while order does matter, in your particular example I don't think that switch will change the result. 2/
@realHollanders I've been experimenting with naming variables after the concepts rather than the notation, e.g. "mean_logodds_occur" over "mu_alpha". Bit longer but it expresses more about what the model is.
Today’s announcement of New Zealand’s National Policy Statement on Indigenous Biodiversity is great in many ways, but it also is a reminder that despite a climate crisis and a biodiversity crisis this country still privileges coal mining. 1/n
