I did a thing, signed up for a little run ultrasignup.com/m_entrants_e...

Always listen to AOC… bsky.app/profile/beth...

This is a very impressive story. People listened to him, and his predictions were so accurate. Climate models are great and necessary - but knowing what is going on in microclimates is now a necessity. #climatechange www.latimes.com/california/s...

One of the better experimental designs, sample size, and even used the STROBE criteria) if you are a novice runner, low heel-drop shoes are better for you -- if you are running in higher heel-drop shoes going to low-drop shoes quickly can be risky. 1/2 #Running www.frontiersin.org/journals/spo...

This reminds me of when I was estimating infection rates using medicaid and census data using the sum of variances theorem for the denominator. I ended up inadvertently proving that this was equivalent to the Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel method. A fun week (because I did it twice). #statistics

Yes!! 🌍🌞🌡️🔥❄️

My vote is to quit making it -- but we can't stop recycling all the waste we have enabled either. 🌎

I think I will let this guy respond to "reviewer 2" on my manuscript revision.
