Last month I gave a talk: can chatGPT pass my statistics module? exploring how we might use GPT's data analyst in teaching stats. I've now written that up in a blog post: rekadata.net/blog/2024-04-1… I am no expert, only a curious novice, so feedback and alternative opinions welcome!

Rob and I did the invited commentary on this one. Take a look!

Are you regularly working with #rstats but would like to take your skills to the next level, e.g. by learning about functional and efficient programming, debugging and parallelizing code?
Tom Paskhalis's #GESISworkshop got you covered!

A student told me about a tweet from a few months ago about my new book, The Danger Imperative, posted by @petermoskos. I’m late to the subtweet party but I thought I’d address some of the critiques brought up by Peter and others. 🧵

Em 2021/22, publiquei um artigo e um livro dizendo que os evangélicos respondiam por boa parte do antipetismo na sociedade brasileira. Ouvi de muitos que 'um ano de bons resultados na economia devolveria boa parte dos evangélicos ao PT.' Isso não aconteceu e não vai acontecer!👇

#CRIMINOLOGY : As promised, the Criminology Editors Group have published our new policy statement on #DataTransparency and #DataSharing . We also introduce the journal’s partnership with Harvard Dataverse as the preferred repository for the journal.

Are you using DiD to learn about something *continuous*? If so, then new DiD tools for binary designs don’t seem to help much.

But here is something that will help!

An update to “DiD with a Continuous Treatment” w/ professional age forecaster and Brant Callaway:

Too often, the data that we use in Social Science research is pretty dodgy. May that be because of poor sampling, measurement problems, nonresponse, etc. So we either reject it or use it and hope for the best (maybe add a few caveats in our discussion).
