Please introduce yourself 👋 and tag others. Feel free to reply in any language.
I'll start 👇
What I ❤️ about #JuliaLang: It is fast, fast, fast!
— Women in Statistics and Data Science (@WomenInStat) September 14, 2021
And so easy to create readable and efficient code.
Julia users, let's share the love and @JuliaLanguage resources for Data Science for the community!
I'll start 👇 https://t.co/idynpEAJq1
I am crazily obsessed with #reproducibility and good computing/datasci practices.
— Women in Statistics and Data Science (@WomenInStat) September 15, 2021
Who is with me? 👋
Today, let's all share resources on how to be more reproducible!
I'll start 🧵👇 https://t.co/FGldfw5Pdl
Day 1: #LatinxInStat #LatinxInDataSci visibility ✔️
— Women in Statistics and Data Science (@WomenInStat) September 16, 2021
Day 2: #JuliaLang for DataSci ✔️
Day 3: #Reproducibility and best computing practices ✔️
Today, which person are you?
a. I love graphical abstracts
b. I hate graphical abstracts
c. What are graphical abstracts?
Today is complaint day!
— Women in Statistics and Data Science (@WomenInStat) September 17, 2021
As interdisciplinary stat, I get rejected a lot: "not real stat" for stat journals; "too math-y" for domain journals.
Anyone else has also felt in between? 👋
Let's share stories or strategies in the world of interdisciplinary stat!
I'll start 👇 https://t.co/YYw8pQRTVC
Thanks for a great week!
