I love the videos @wendoverpro creates, and the one released today on mass shootings, gun violence, and its link to current events is extremely informative and well explained. It also shows that the current problem can be solved.

Did you know of this meta-analytic website by @pimcuijpers et al. featuring hundreds of RCTs?
In the video I'll show researchers (part I) and clients (part II) how to run a systematic meta-analysis looking into the effect of CBT on depression in older adults within 1 minute.

@dayoneapp I'm enjoyign the tagging feature. I also like being able to convert hashtags to entry tags. Is there a way to include spaces in the hash tags like we can include spaces in entry tags?

How to become "the stats person":

When asked if I know method X,

1st time: no, what's that?

2nd time: think I've heard about it

3rd-6th time: I'm not sure, but I can take a look & think with you.

7th: yeah, what do you need?

After 10th time: .. Adding to my CV.

📊 Stacked bar charts can be very hard to process. There are better ways!

This chart redesign is nearly a year old, but I still like it a lot.
