๐Ÿงต on Linear Regression and R-squared with #rstats & #tidyverse. You have data, but need a model to either predict new points or explain the relationship. Several lines, sales=m(temp) + b, seem reasonable. Which is best?

Remembering our former coach Bob Schul - let's take a look at his big kick to win Olympic gold on a wet track in Tokyo in 1964 - the only American to have won an Olympic gold medal in the 5000m! Here's the final 3 laps - https://t.co/Q1lIFeZNam

I swear the use of "inference" in machine learning was designed to make statisticians as confused as possible

NEW: Iโ€™m not sure people fully appreciate how dire the US life expectancy / mortality situation has got. My column: https://t.co/dBIhT9eZLv And some utterly damning charts. 1) at *every* point on the income distribution, Americans live shorter lives than the English.

@mikpanko if you can't express what you want in words, no amount of clicking will get you the right answer if you can express it in words, it's not a big leap to express it in code

this is a must watch for every body in the trenches today: - "Do you view this season as a failure?" giannis: "Do you get a promotion every year?" - "No." g: "So every year you work is a failure? " g: "It's not failure - it's steps to success." https://t.co/YHkcFOiRbQ

A fan of the book written by two National Academy members (@HastieTrevor, @robtibshirani) and two COPPS winners (@robtibshirani, @daniela_witten)? Love the second edition but still want more? Stay tuned for the next installment.

Social media is like looking in the fridge over & over. You know there's nothing good but you check it so many times that eventually you start consuming things you don't even like

Prediction intervals for machine learning models. MAPIE works with any scikit-learn model & is a big improvement over basic methods that only gave constant interval widths. Based on conformal prediction. Awesome library. https://t.co/NGZJaA79I6

Frustrating for readers and authors: poor quality copies on the market. Are these knock-offs or random problems at the publisher? Have reached out to Wiley.
