Has anyone built Fediverse stats that show amount of people who post in certain language or top posters in the whole Fediverse? I'd be curious to see how many Finnish people there are among all instances.
After a chat with some colleagues earlier, I pulled 7 days of our access logs for www.bbc.co.uk & www.bbc.com because they wanted a list of unique user agents. I've never looked at this before.
We had 9.7 million unique user agents in those 7 days. WTAF?
Granted, only 50k with >= 1k requests but still... #webDev#stats
I'm looking for model ideas to get folks thinking (e.g., can I predict the quality of my sleep based on when I had my last coffee et al.) Suggestions are more than welcome! Heck, you can even submit them as pull requests.²
Yesterday, Gil Strang gave his final lecture at MIT. It was monumental enough to be live streamed with guests coming in to talk about his influence. The fact that it was a normal class lecture is so appropriate. It is the end of an era in #teaching.
I only visited MIT once, for an ASA conference, but Strang has affected my life deeply. His teaching of linear algebra is the best I have ever seen, full stop.
I've been searching resources and materials to make my Quarto presentations and website more accessible to visually impaired students and users. But, I wanted to reach out the R community to ask if anyone has more materials, knowledge or just opinions on how to improve accessibility using Quarto. I've found some blogs by Quarto users but I haven't found too many options. #QuartoPub#accessibility#webdev#stats
Way back when, when when X was Twitter we had a tweet chat that discussed all things @Flipboard. :flipboard: Here’s a post from 2017. We should something like this again. #flipboard#chats#Community#networking#stats
I realize this won't be a completely random sample. I need to hear from those of you living outside the region of New England, USA. I'm teaching a #stats class and we are doing Chi-Square between two populations. New Englanders vs non- New Englanders (and the rest of the world). Please reply with answers to these 3 questions:
Do you like broccoli?
Have you visited a country outside your own continent?
Do you currently own more than 5 pairs of "jeans"?
"yes" or "no" #Caturday#survey
