Hi, I made public some of my own notes about Bayesian statistics with pymc and
@arviz.bsky.social
on my github.
I hope you fill find them useful.
I hope I will be able to update them soon with some more advanced (so more fun) stuff.

Se entro dicembre non pioverà (o nevicherà) copiosamente Teheran rischia concretamente di essere evacuata per assenza d'acqua.
Poi leggo quelli che dicono che tagliare (non azzerare) le emissioni di CO2 è impossibile o addirittura controproducente per l'economia.
Tutte sciocchezze. 1/3

Sono spesso critico con quanto leggo sul Corriere, ma qui la direzione ha fatto la scelta secondo me giusta -- esponendo inoltre quell'insulso propagandista per il ridicolo pagliaccio che è, ovvero un censore che si lagna per la censura 🤡

This post looks great for someone with solid Bayes skills who wants to work for public good. Requires Dutch language proficiency, but if you speak German and English in my experience you can already understand like 30% of spoken Dutch so could learn it pretty fast!

Few days ago the head of the DS dept of an IT company told me that he was able to predict fraudulent clients with ML because he had 90% precision in the test set. Seriously?!?
IMHO you can only say this when you know a lot about software and algorithms but nothing about science and human behavior.

On LinkedIn I read someone saying that he was measuring technical debt.
OK, cool. But is it a meaningful measure? Is it stable? Is it robust enough?
If you aren't able to prove this, then what you are selling is just an expensive random number generator.

We wrote here why we shouldn't even call such unprincipled data dredging or fishing for statistically significant effects "exploratory research". It's time we start taking scientific exploration seriously. Again.

as a condition of funding, we were asked to affirm that we wouldn’t undertake any diversity, equity, and inclusion work, whether or not we used the government funds to do so. The PSF simply couldn’t agree to that statement,

I'm an #RStats users, but I know some of the R 📦s I use have reticulate + Python under the hood. Thank you @python.org for standing up for everyone in your community. I've made a small donation, hopefully a lot of small $$ can help fund what's needed.
