I have started a YouTube series Looking for Leviathans, science, statistics and sea monsters (not necessarily in that order!). The first episode has just come out, all about the life of the Victorian "sea serpent monomaniac" Captain George Drevar. https://t.co/PLs7ke56ak

[Charles Paxton @CharlesPaxton4]

Coming soon a new video podcast for
YouTube called "Looking for Leviathans", science, statistics and sea monsters, with some history (but no AI) by yours truly. So if you want quality scholarly info on aquatic monsters stories, accounts and what generates them watch this space.

@CharlesPaxton4 How would you put the headsets if you are in a video conference?

@radosveta_vass Защо е пирамида, а не да речем правоъгълник? Предполагам колкото по-надолу слизаш толкова по-широко се практикува.

@TiagoALOMarques @signer_j @RolandLangrock I tried running it but my vrowser informed m ethat the application failed to start. Is the shiny under construction or I missed installing something important?

@CREEM_cake @TheoMichelot The Yorkshire Ginger parkins were from Rhona.

While waiting for the pub quiz at the #RSS2019Conf we started creating a playlist with popular songs related to statistics. Here are some of our favourites:

I've got the power
All about that bass (Bayes)
My favourite GAM(e)
Take a chance on me
Das Model

Further ideas?

@CREEM_cake @millerdl No chicks were slaughtered for Chrissy's cake, it is just a typo - choc cake!

It is an honour to work with such a distinguished statistician!

@economeager @Econ_Marshall I had an honest question and you are turning it into a personal fight. I will stop here because there is nothing constructive anymore.

[Valentin @valmpopov]

@economeager @Econ_Marshall Of course not. I didn't get the
impression your answer was based on your experience. It sounded like a general statement, which might well be true but I have personally never come across such cases. This is why I asked.

[Valentin @valmpopov]

@economeager @Econ_Marshall Any data to back up the "yep"?

"Men's physical strength is associated with women's perception of their dancing abilities" is a peer reviewed paper. I kid you not.

Once known for making weapons, Bulgaria's Rose Valley is now famous as one of the world’s biggest sources of rose oil, likened to "liquid gold" https://t.co/NIrX3TFU8n
