Zotero's pdf reader is becoming my go-to choice. By hoovering the mouse on a citation, or any hyperlinked section/equation/table etc, a super handy window pops up. So no need to scroll through the pdf and interrupt the reading flow. Any other pdf reader (for Windows) with such feature?

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

Want to fit challenging stochastic models with mixed-effects? Check our new paper and the thread by @henhagg.bsky.social 👇 We construct an SBI framework to obtain expressive, parsimonious approximations of the likelihood and the posterior. The methodology is scalable and easily trainable.

there's a lot of insight and interesting discussion in the review paper "Simulation-based Bayesian inference under model misspecification" arxiv.org/abs/2503.123...

You publish papers in statistics journals and you're proud of them? But, when your friends ask "are you coming to AISTATS with us?", you feel sad and you regret not to submit papers to conferences? Well, this message is for you! There is now a Journal-to-conference track at #AISTATS2025!

Jeremias Knoblauch and other colleagues and friends in UCL launched a "Post-Bayes seminar series". Their will be many blocks of talks, including a series on PAC-Bayes (probably starting in September 2025). The first talk (by Jeremias) is next week. Please have a look: postbayes.github.io/seminar/

small piece of advice for new Bluesky users. These days me, as well as many others, are getting dozens of new followers every day. But please before following anyone, write something about yourself in your profile, and have a profile pic. You are more likely to get followed-back
