@AlessandraWhite @MusicPractice_ Awesome!!! I just closed my eyes and felt this with my whole body. There's something about this piece that really speaks to me, and I love the way you're normalizing the glorious imperfection of practice. See you soon in @MusicPractice_ !

Today, activists gathered outside a Minneapolis Chase Bank demanding @JPMorgan @Chase divest from fossil fuel corporations now! Chase Bank is the WORST banker of climate chaos - we are fighting for future generations! #DefundClimateChaos #endfossilfinance

@JoeBiden Line 3 is a direct threat to our future economy, to the Minnesota wetlands, and to Indigenous sovereignty. Show us you're serious about the climate and #StopLine3

@JKBye P.S. many of these students probably are learning R in their stats courses. EPSY's increasingly an R shop, although different profs teach R differently (i.e. base vs tidyverse vs mosaic)

[Ethan Brown @statisfactions]

@JKBye Quick thoughts: managing data, clear metadata, abstraction, readable code (grade on clarity?), preregistration, and really thinking through workflows. How well can their code hold up if the dataset changes? Can someone else understand what they did? (2/2)

“Well, are you doing, And where are you doing, And where are you?” it squeaked, as it was no answer. c/o #rstats https://t.co/BjS7xXG4gK

@LucianKahn I always knew you were a bit Mercurial, even if you worshipped the svn for awhile.

[Ethan Brown @statisfactions]

@LucianKahn Dude, you're such a coder now! And it all began with Public Static.

[Ethan Brown @statisfactions]

@LucianKahn Ha! Barely. Hiiiiii!
