I was checking the doesthedogdie site to see if the dog dies in a movie. I was looking through all the trigger warnings out of interest and see that there is now a - does a valuable/ historical artefact get broken? - I want to know which archaeologist / heritage person asked for this!

I don’t want to click on this ad that appeared in my Apple News feed- is it AI? Click bait? Or did Idaho really move?

2025 was mostly garbage, but there were some good moments. One of my favorites was when a family of beavers built a dam in just a few days, saving the Czech Republic 30 million Czech koruna (US$1.2 million) for a wetland restoration project the government had been planning for 7 years. 🦫 🌿

These eager beavers saved the Czech government $1.2 million

After plans stalled for a new dam in the Czech Republic, eight beavers saved the day seemingly overnight. “At this point, nothing that beavers do surprises me.”

Hivemind question: Palmer Penguins is doing great work avoiding overuse of Fisher's iris data. What other "dataset substitutions" do you like? Or just generally other cool, real, open datasets that are good for teaching because established methods work pretty well on them?

I have run into issues with too many images now being an issue with the pythonanywhere site- although that could be fixed I think. Django is relatively easy to deploy on pythonanywhere although it does depend on the database used I think.

I’m not an expert- so this may not be useful- but as part of my PhD I’m using Django to make my site- the uni deployed it: kuden.fabrics.anu.edu.au, but for testing I used pythonanywhere. Which is free for small sites.

Two of the universities in Canberra Australia put these types of banners in our uni emails automatically- it was really annoying when you were having an email chain conversation with someone from the other uni - it looked like a weird competition.

Hey #StatsSky, what are you favorite papers to cite when you need to justify something that is obvious (I once had a reviewer ask we justify the use of logistic regression on a binary outcome) or when you need to push-back on silly reviewer requests (e.g., asking for p-values in table 1)?

An honor, a feather. I was invited to Edinburgh to give the UoE Center for Digital Culture & Society 2024 Annual Lecture. Will hector against "best" practices and standards developed in the Atlantic North when those don't align with the Global South. Register here: www.cdcs.ed.ac.uk/events/annua...

A stressful weekend but -if you get the chance to see the PNG movie/ doco- Sailau- about sailing around PNG- do. hotel Kalifornia - a Vanuatu film was also great. Also if your staffy dog has a lump get it checked as soon as possible- my little demon girl had a mast cell tumor- waiting on the path.

My achievement for the month, getting the microscope camera software working again (or rather getting uni IT to get it working again). I took a photo of a pyroxenic placer temper, from a sherd found in Vanua Levu, to celebrate.

Bright pink, green and purple minerals- pyroxenes, in a dark clay matrix.

Pyroxenes in PPL light, they appear very pale yellow-green, with angular shapes and cleavage lines.
