Joe Biden says he's started treatment for his prostate cancer and the prognosis is good. Donald Trump says Biden was executed in 2020 and was replaced with a legion of clones. For busy voters, it can be hard to know who to believe.

I find em-dashes suspicious because there is nothing holding them up. They should drop down into ＿ or maybe flop to one side of the other into / or \. Punctuation should not levitate, it is simply witchcraft.

I know he's younger than the previous pontiff, but even so, this is pretty impressive stuff given the limited time he'll have had in nets recently.

Don't really want a generative summary of my train tickets thanks, Adobe. Oh, I can't get rid of the tab that's covering part of the ticket, perfect

I mean what are you going to do when the shell garage in lothlorien is shut, not going all the way to mirkwood for those little shits

Meant to go back and take a proper screenshot of this but by the time I remembered it had gone, for some reason. Folks, remember to remove all "memorabilia" from view before the estate agents come round to take photos.

I wrote a thing about multivariate normal sampling in #rstats, and why you would be well-advised to prefer mvtnorm::rmvnorm() over MASS::mvrnorm() Now. Let us never speak of this again

This is getting lots of attention - check the thread. I want to emphasize the basic problem: Just because you have randomized (or pseudo-randmized) a treatment, that doesn't mean you can reliably estimate interactions with that treatment. Which means post-strat prediction for population not possible

Thanks to everybody who chimed in! I arrived at the conclusion that (1) there's a lot of interesting stuff about interactions and (2) the figure I was looking for does not exist. So, I made it myself! Here's a simple illustration of how to control for confounding in interactions:>
