This week in #TidyTuesday we look at Hollywood Age Gaps!
@christianp thanks! at this rate, it looks like it will be in may (~6 months post submission). Partly my fault for not being available for most of april
can't watch netflix on train wifi but you can install #rstats packages!
all this back and forth is painfully slow (and not actually resulting in a viva date)
why can't my viva just be organised via doodle poll

You've heard about Stan and want to learn some more? Maybe you're about to step into the Bayesian paradigm and don't know where to start 🤔
In this week's blog post, we'll take a look what you can do with #Stan and draw comparisons to #JAGS!

It's time for #TidyTuesday again! Thanks to Evan Gower for sharing the data this week!
We're looking at stock prices of tech companies, and I used geom_sankey_bump() from {ggsankey} to look at the rank of Adobe over time!

Big stonks for #TidyTuesday unless you're IBM! Had fun using corrr::networkwork_plot() for a really fast & effective way to identify correlations ... then spent ages colour coding the subtitle and adding the side plots

"Can you explain this gap in your resume?"
"Yes, I used LaTeX and couldn't fix that bit"
@jmcastagnetto @allbriteallday colorblindr::cvd_grid() is great for checking if plots are cvd friendly - quicker than a web app

Has anyone built a Shiny app or other interactive #datavis for showing example screening test outcomes, e.g. breakdown of true and false positives and negatives based on number of tests, disease/condition prevalence, and test sensitivity and specificity? #stats #datascience
@DToher machine readable as well!!
