Lovely day at eddfest yesterday. My final maiden gig for a while. True to the absent minded prof trope, I managed to be unaware of the @impq.bsky.social Meetup, but bumped into them anyway. A marvellous surprise!
Want to learn JASP? My colleagues (@ejwagenmakers.bsky.social) at UVA are running workshops in August: jasp-stats.org/2026/02/03/h...
Hybrid Workshop "Discovering Statistics Using JASP", August 24th, 2026 - JASP - Free and User-Friendly Statistical Software
We are happy to announce that the JASP team will offer a week of workshops in Amsterdam this summer. In this blogpost we’ll highlight the first of four workshops: “Discovering Statistics Using JASP“....

Lots of negative reporting around Maidens Paris show, which had no encores because of an earlier power cut. My take: 1. Gutting, but the right decision to skip encores because Mariner/7th son probably won’t get played beyond this tour but aces high/FOTD and wasted years probably will.
Tonight, for the second time in my life, I’ve been at an iron maiden show where the venue power completely blows mid-set.

The press want you to believe there are violent protests in Brighton today. Counter protesters outnumbered the Fascists by many thousands. We sang, danced, and waved inflatable bananas and hearts in the name of tolerance and diversity. Fascists not welcome in Brighton.
A truly great book! And we’re not just saying that because our #easystats packages are in it. Although, of course, that’s (a small) part of the reason why the book is so great. 😎
Publication date looms ever closer ... physical copies exist (at the @sagepub.com London office, I await my own copy with excitement).

Woohoo. Finally arrived. Excited to get into it. The plan is to support students using either R or SPSS in my future course. Also: text author @profandyfield.com is on here!
Just preordered a stats textbook ensuring I receive this summer the most underwhelming surprise delivery of a package in human history.
Fun times at the University of Sussex today where we all received an email at the end of the working day to tell us whether our jobs fall into the ‘at risk’ category. University of Sussex plans to cut 200 jobs www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
University of Sussex aims to cut 200 jobs in £35m annual savings drive
Trade union Unison says the cuts will only heap "strain and uncertainty" on the staff who remain.

There's also `creating objects in R`, but that one doesn't involve cake and I look really misreable in the thumbnail. youtu.be/i894fWOkmEw

Speaking of crazy d values, this reminds me of this feature I was thinking about adding to the forest() function in metafor. #Rstats #MetaAnalysis
Mini 'what is mediation' video just released. I'm trying to decouple the 'what is it' from the 'how to do it' so that I can do different software run throughs without having to repeat myself on 'what is it'. We'll see if that works. youtube.com/playlist?lis...

Quick update on the update: my companion website is now complete! (Also, fYI @sagepub.com)
I've just made live the updated website that accompanies my R book (www.discovr.rocks) - it's mostly finished: almost all of the chapter solutions/task solutions are done, data are live, updated info about the `discovr` package of interactive tutorials, and it's had a face lift.
I’m considering whether I could set this up as required reading for students to gain access to my module canvas sites. Such a great summary of important issues.
also this one, I think! let me know if it's not clear how to adapt these for artists, but I think it's directly obvious olivia.science/cheating/

Very different to last weekend’s musical experience but Courtney Marie Andrews was amazing in Brighton tonight. Great setlist too!❤️
