.@skyetetra aquiring a "rejected license plates" dataset by doing a Freedom of Information Request is the most gloriously extra thing I've ever heard. 🤣🤩

Piping "input" through NN layers to produce "output" is such a satisfying is such a satisfying example of code structure reflecting concept. ❤️
Dying. 🤣🤣🤣 Image

Hi twitfriends,

I know most of you follow me for R reasons, but I'd appreciate if you'd bear with me for a different kind of thread.

(It'll have a little bit of statistics, at least.)

I live in San Luis Obispo, California.

It's almost exactly halfway between LA and San Jose, along the coast.

The town has about 50,000 people, not counting the 20,000 students at Cal Poly.

We're usually forgotten in the news, but we have two claims to fame:

1. @Oprah once called SLO "the happiest city in America"

(oprah.com/own-oprahshow/…)

2. It regularly cracks the top tier for lists of the least affordable cities in the U.S.

I've been seeing some articles make the rounds about Stanford studying "herd immunity" in California.

I looked into it, and these headlines are patently false. They have their origins in right-wing propaganda.

Read on for a timeline of details and links.

[1/?]
April 2: Rush Limbaugh first floats the idea that CA has "herd immunity" due to the magnitude of travel flow from Asia.

rushlimbaugh.com/daily/2020/04/…

"California, they’re already bragging about having flattened the curve out there. [...] I think they’ve already gone through it."
April 3: Rush backs up this theory by inviting guest Victor Davis Hanson.

rushlimbaugh.com/daily/2020/04/…

Hanson is a PhD in Classics from Stanford. He works as a fellow at the Stanford right-wing think tank called The Hoover Institute.

Pssssttt..... hey kids.... wanna learn some Advanced Statistical Computing with R?

@hglanz and I are making our course materials public. We'd like to invite you to follow along with our superstar Cal Poly students over the next 9 weeks:

cal-poly-advanced-r.github.io/STAT-431/

#rstats
Of course we won't be able to grade your assignments or hold office hours.

But we have set up a public Discord channel where you can work with your peers: discord.gg/4VCPtxU

We may even hop in and answer questions from time to time (especially MW afternoons!) 🤗
Also: If anyone out there in the twittersphere is interested in contributing a "guest appearance" in the form of a ~30 second video, or a "guest lecture" in the form of a ~5 minute video, give us a shout!

I’ve been trying to get @hglanz to tweet more at #rstudioconf.

He keeps saying funny things and then refusing to tweet them.

This thread is now a livestream of Hunter quotes as he drinks more and more fancy cocktails.
"I already tweeted twice! What if those are like... the top 2 of the 5 thoughts I have right now."
"Haha! I already tweeted! Unbeknownst to your tweet!"

Teaching a Faculty #rstats Workshop with @hglanz.

Question 1: "Is Kelly livetweeting this?"

I am now, I guess. 🤷‍♀️
Confirmed: 2+2 still equals 4 in R.
Awesome questions so far:

- Does R index from 1 or 0?
- Is a vector the same as a 1-D matrix?
- Do objects get modified in place when passed to a function?

So easy to forget the little idiosyncrasies when you are used to a language!
