The latest #Rweekly issue is out! Positron, Tidyverse + AI, Observable (another post by @nrennie.bsky.social in the newsletter highlights!) #Rstats #reading rweekly.org

Hey #StatsSky, what are you favorite papers to cite when you need to justify something that is obvious (I once had a reviewer ask we justify the use of logistic regression on a binary outcome) or when you need to push-back on silly reviewer requests (e.g., asking for p-values in table 1)?

An honor, a feather. I was invited to Edinburgh to give the UoE Center for Digital Culture & Society 2024 Annual Lecture. Will hector against "best" practices and standards developed in the Atlantic North when those don't align with the Global South. Register here: www.cdcs.ed.ac.uk/events/annua...

@archaeologytube.bsky.social I did an illustration tutorial on my blog a few years ago, that might be useful for you!! 🏺 spadeandthegrave.com/2020/06/19/a...

You asked for it...

A stressful weekend but -if you get the chance to see the PNG movie/ doco- Sailau- about sailing around PNG- do. hotel Kalifornia - a Vanuatu film was also great. Also if your staffy dog has a lump get it checked as soon as possible- my little demon girl had a mast cell tumor- waiting on the path.

My achievement for the month, getting the microscope camera software working again (or rather getting uni IT to get it working again). I took a photo of a pyroxenic placer temper, from a sherd found in Vanua Levu, to celebrate.

Folks who use #rstats with github, how am I supposed to be managing the data for my project with 100mb file size limit? Am I going about this all wrong?

Spent last week in Adelaide with the Geo Axioscan, capturing more petrographic slides for the kuden database (kudenfabrics.anu.edu.au). Including this one of an oceanic basaltic Samoan pottery fabric with beautiful lithic fragments (from Auckland University's collection- Fiona Petchey).
