Let's say that one wanted to go from 0 to computational social science. With the end goal being to write a real research paper using this approach. What are the texts and resources that you would suggest to achieve this goal?

To see so many industries walking back support of DEI initiatives in these times affirms the skepticism I had of their proclamations back in 2020. At the end of the day, they can always protect themselves from cultural backlash by dropping the programs, but my race can’t be dropped or hidden.

#Rstat folks, I need help: What is the proper package to do GEE regression ? I use {geepack}, but its a pain: slow, if not ordered does not work, not compatible with broom::tidy, etc. What is your best option ? #StatsSky #episky

With Beyoncé’s performance over, I can go back to ignoring the NFL until the draft when my Giants get to start over. 😭

It feels that the longer I do statistics, the harder it becomes. I never get an analysis just "right". There is always one more assumption to change or one more term to add to my model.

I really don’t understand this whole ‘stay on Twitter and fight’ thing. You’re jousting with bots and reply guys and wading through ads it’s not Waterloo.

Might be a good time to read up on the history of science & how it's fundamentally a social process (as it is carried out by humans) & how it's deeply intertwined with power relations. Decades of literature! Will be super helpful when having (yet another) debate about science and politics! 🧪⚕️🛟
