Twenty years ago today, I nervously watched a Delta 2 rocket launch the WMAP satellite. By the time the mission had launched, I had already learned so much from working with a superb team of scientists and engineers that built the mission.

Okay, someone has been taking our NYU course in actual Japanese. Like, there are actual people learning from the translations (and sending corrections). 🤯🤯🤯 Also, another one has translated ALL videos into French! Like, close-captioned each and every video!!! 🤯🤯🤯 THANKS!!

Weekend hacking: Goal: You want to clean signatures (remove background text, underlines, dates etc). You also want to spend the least effort. Clearly, is an image translation problem that can be solved with #machinelearning. But what do you start with? 🧵 #buildinginpublic

La paradoja de Simpson es una de las falacias estadísticas más comunes en medicina y sociología: la tendencia de datos agregados puede ser contraria a la de los datos desagregados ¿Por qué es importante conocerla para combatir el negacionismo de las vacunas? Breve hilo🧵👇

I just published an article that demonstrates my incremental process for developing and testing models in PyMC: opendatascience.com/incremental-de… It also explains the relationships between the four distributions of Bayesian analysis.

📢New paper! In which I work through a lot of my uncomfortable observations since joining academia, examining the alarming-but-quiet capture of academic AI research by big tech, what this means for how and what we know about AI, and how we can resist. interactions.acm.org/archive/view/n…

Ppl are on twitter for many reasons. I'm here to chew bubblegum & teach scientific inference. And I'm all out of gum. Engage yourself with 20+ hours of free lectures on causal inference and Bayesian data analysis. This isn't an ordinary statistics course. github.com/rmcelreath/sta…
