'To hear it told is not equal to experience'-Japaness proverb. So true in every stage of my life in retro, and I'm glad I tried out the paths and lived the experience bad or good on my own even if you told me not to.

Stitch Fix is using something called eigenvector decomposition, a concept from quantum mechanics, to tease apart the overlapping “notes” in an individual’s style. Using physics, the team can better understand the complexities of the clients’ style minds. wired.trib.al/IvWQkYM

when you’re a leader in a software company, you get a band of autists that barely listen to you and take 4 months per year of mental health leave. when you’re a leader in something like construction you get an army of strong guys who call you boss and might beat up your enemies

idea: a gameshow called Imposter Syndrome where you take 10 senior developers and tell them that one of them is actually just a sales guy who's been taught to say DevOps buzzwords. to win, they have to figure out who the fake dev is. the trick: there is no sales guy

Hey #rstats folks - come join my team at Chief! Chief is a private network for female executives, and this is an exciting moment as we're building out the analytics team. In addition to this data science role, I'm also hiring an analytics engineer. grnh.se/ffc762722us
It's the time of year I need to spend my learning budget. Any recommendation for books on optimization, causal inference, pricing model and system design? #econ #optimization #causalinference #RStats #Finance
Aren't we all on the spectrum of some sort of skewed distribution? Play nice with your fellow #stat or #DataScience colleagues. 🤓🤗
How are sample size calculated for #quasiexperiment? Let's say I want to run a #diffindiff analysis and want to collect some data first. How should I power the study and calculate sample size? What about other causal inference models? Do you have tools to share #rstats

WoW
