Happy New Year 2020 : a (long) letter to 16 year old people of today.
Dear young friend, I would like to look both backwards and forward and think of climate change science and society.
When I was your age, a 16 year old high school student, I enjoyed reading science popularization magazines. In 1987, new research was emerging on the Earth's space observations, climate modelling, Antarctic ice cores.

Happy New Year! To celebrate 2020, how about an #EpiEllie #tweetorial?

Today, let’s talk about e-values and how to interpret them!
E-values were first developed by Tyler Vanderweele and Peng Ding, and is a type of threshold-based quantitative bias analysis.

The original paper introducing the e-value is here: annals.org/aim/article-ab…
But today, I want to talk about a paper from the March 2019 issue of @AmJEpi which calculated e-values for 100 recent papers in each of #nutritionalepi and #environmentalepi, by @l_trinquart, @alerlinger, @JulieMOPetersen, @ProfMattFox, and @sandrogalea

Happy New Year!!

I know many of you work on side-projects, projects where you don't have the benefit of a product & design team. I'm betting a bunch of y'all have goals to create something new in 2020!

Thought I'd share a thread with all my favourite resources:
1. A long-time staple in my toolbox, @LeaVerou made this *amazing* tool that lets you visualize custom cubic-bezier easings. This is super helpful when the built-in timing functions don't feel right.

cubic-bezier.com
2. You know how Google Fonts shows you the "load times" for your selected fonts? There's that stress when deciding how many weights you need?

Variable fonts are a great way to get all the styles you want, with a super low payload!

Amazing resource: v-fonts.com
