Career insight from @hadleywickham, complete with photo example: “Your taste evolves faster than your talent.” You can recognize good work faster than you can produce it, and the only way to work through that is quantity, and over time you get better. @Statfest @UTHealth_BaDS – at Houston, TX

2. Access to funding. Yes, it is a factor
