Fun fact: Instead of saying "factorial" you can scream the answer and it means the same thing.
Example:
26! = "26 factorial" = "TWENTY SIX"

Great to hear about causal inference methods to estimate per-protocol effects in randomised trials from @Tfeend
Traditional methods used in trials cause bias but methods of observational research can permit causal interpretations

Here's a thought. Instead of cutting libraries... Let's invest in them. #NoCutsToLibraries

Instead of just sharing equations, I truly believe that code sharing enhances transparency and reproducibility in our field. 🔄 #OpenScience
Equations are compact, but we can do more. and if the code works, sometimes written equations don't.

The US just keeps getting worse every single day, huh? There’s just no bottom to this thing.
They’ll turn ultra-violent, ultra-fascist militarised police and sniper rifles loose on their own students for daring to protest against Obviously Bad Things, and the media will find some way to not even mention the Obviously Bad Things *AT ALL* and instead centre those who egged this on and who support the Obviously Bad Things as being some oppressed little group.
The collective delusion is phenomenal to observe. There are so many people involved in upholding this giant lie — that it is the protestors that are the real evil here, and not Israel’s illegal, unjust and unprecedented campaign of violence that they’re protesting — that this is a level of gaslighting I don’t think I’ve ever seen before.
I always said Huxley had the future nailed more than Orwell, but we’re into levels of doublespeak that would make Big Brother recoil. The American Project has failed, and it’s failed so badly it’s destroying half the world with it.

A paid statistical reviewer job is available at BMJ Open

I think all journals should do this. Having confidence that the stats are correct in a paper then allows for proper discussion of the merits of whatever findings it is reporting.

#OTD 1994 the first of BMJ’s ‘Statistics Notes’ series (‘Correlation, regression and repeated data’) was published. In 1993 BMJ asked Doug Altman to write a few 600-word “filler” pieces on statistics education. 1/2

They were just trying to feed people. Both the IOF and Israeli civilians are blocking aid from entering Gaza and these workers were slaughtered for trying to feed starving families.
🚨Zomi & Chef Oli's last video shows them cooking meals for Gaza's hungry in @WCKitchen.
They were killed today by Israeli warplanes in #Gaza , in disregard of international laws, echoing the daily killings of Palestinian civilians in Gaza over the past 177 days.

Would Boeing murder a whistleblower? Before this month I'd have said it depends. I didn't think Boeing would kill a middle manager who never worked on the 737 Max & left in 2017.
What surprised me was how many more informed observers felt Boeing...might
