Advent of Bloggers: Day 12

Back to work/school—for the next two weeks at least—so it’s time for statistics on the twelfth day of Advent of Bloggers.

Jessica Hartnett writes a mix of pedadgogy and stats and, as someone who has to teach this stuff from time to time, her examples are universally brilliant. The time she turned a Leo Dicaprio Reddit thread into a usable regression dataset was just 😙👌

• Thomas Lumley has his own blog as well as being the primary contributor to Stats Chat
• Nathan Yau has been publishing a few times a week for every week since 2007, which is remarkable in itself.
• Kaiser Fung writes another great source for teaching examples to use in class. That he uses the same software as me is the cherry on the cake.
• Hilda Bastian clarts around in the land of bad stats puns and I’m more than three standard deviations from the mean in appreciating those.
