Coming back from my first seminar visit. It was great to meet folks at BYU Statistics. A lot of fun data-driven work going on. Glad I am missing the winter storm and had the chance to enjoy some warm weather to hike the Y! I have been missing the mountains 😍

We've released an updated version of Hamiltonian Monte Carlo (our implementation of the NUTS sampler) for nimble in package nimbleHMC (CRAN.R-project.org/package=n…). Among other things, it fixes an efficiency glitch in the initial release. r-nimble.org/nimblehmc-versi…
