@AP The U.S. has given the final go-ahead to the nation’s first COVID-19 vaccine, marking what could be the beginning of the end of an outbreak that has killed nearly 300,000 Americans, a source familiar with the decision tells AP. https://t.co/BV6t2CjQIT
@mlangston11 One of the hardest things for me learning Italian was not being able finding a good amount of TV to watch or easy books to read. The music and food are good though!
@mlangston11 I ❤️ Italian! I tried learning some before we went to Italy a few years ago but I kept getting it confused with Spanish ha
I was able to use it in Germany too! My German is bad, and one restaurant in a village on a Red Wine Trail our waiter was Italian but spoke no English!
I feel like the media shouldn’t be publishing reports like this. Patients in double blind placebo trials do not know if they got the vaccine or placebo. Only true numbers are what come out of Pfizer and Moderna database. https://t.co/5O6Jn0tqze

@CyberArmyCC @opensourceway Everything has been working really well with my old MacBook Pro running dual boot OS X and Manjaro Linux (based off Arch) but I've been tempted to try either FreeBSD or OpenBSD lately. This will give me a great opportunity to test it out before installing!
The time has come to defend science against its own practitioners. Thread!!!!!!!!!! Spoiler: Remdesivir may work, but we won't find that out from a "study" with no fricking control group and with patients who statistically are *not expected to die anyway*.
A lot of tweets about #PalindromeDay miss that 02 February 2020 is a palindrome in USA, UK and ISO formats; it is a palindrome day of the year (33) and there are a palindrome of days left in the year (333).
This will never happen again. More details here: https://t.co/OUObHdBoz6
To count an animal population if you can't catch them all: capture some, mark them, release, and capture again. The ratio of new vs already seen tells you something about the total number. Shown here is iterated mark-and-recapture with a Bayesian updates to belief about pop size

@djnavarro@PsyArXiv At quick glance this seems very real & conversational. I'll come back & real more on it later. Personally I think it's more powerful when academic papers don't take themselves too seriously, but still get the point across; it's easier for me to connect to them.
Life is all play
@JessLynnMoreno @lauradiddle Yep! While I have students on rotation I try to encourage problem solving where the student has a goal to achieve, and starting knowledge, then they have to come up with the middle portion linking beginning to end
@JessLynnMoreno @lauradiddle Absolutely! And now that vancomycin monitoring is going to area-under-the-curve-based, you are literally calculating the integral of the serum concentration dosing function (assuming monoexponential decay, and ignoring distribution phase)
@PKZach I just left Germany. Most people speak English really well, but my wife and I did a year of Duolingo and that helped only a little for some very small talk. Duolingo doesn't teach as much useful information for travel. One of the people we went with had a book with travel phrases
Looked at the regulations for Arkansas pharmacies and the requirement to counsel and I don’t know if these mail order outfits make any effort to do that whatsoever. @jasonrapert
