  5. Sometimes I think the worst things happen because people try disruption as a fix for things they know they can't change, making it worse for themselves and others.

    That is … something special for an OS that’s case insensitive

    Hadn’t seen this before, but his books on graphics were some of the best I read when I started with visual statistics. They are still relevant today.

  12. First for me but I got a dataset that combines a wide format with a long format. The dates and characteristics of events are put in a separate variable per characteristic and for each event, but the measurements related to the event are in rows with a repeating “event” variable 🙃
    So a *lot* of empty cells and, I guess, welcome to the untidyverse.

  16. Reading a paper on the estimands framework and in one of the examples, analysis strategies to deal with data from patients dying before the end of the clinical trial are considered.

    A hypothetical strategy what if all patients would have survived, is considered but dismissed because
    “… no mechanism to avoid death exists …”

    And I really do like how methodological papers suddenly turn to deadpan humor, just for a part of a sentence.

  17. “Please, remain calm, the end has arrived
    We cannot save you, enjoy the ride
    This is the moment you've been waiting for
    Don't call it a warning, this is a war”

    Parasite Eve by Bring Me the Horizon

    Released in 2020 but sadly still very up to date.

  19. Wanted to read some longer blog articles on my kobo while taking the train. Because I prefer the e-reader for longer texts. And because the line I’m travelling on goes from no internet connection to edge (4G briefly in the stops).
    So …
    - obsidian web clipper saves the blog as markdown
    - pandoc -> epub
    - calibre to change fonts and convert to kepub

    And low and behold, a crisp looking text with pictures and formulas on my kobo travelling through no-connection land

  20. Another Kind of Blues - first album of the UK Subs.

    Still an exceptional punkrock album 47 years later, probably the only one at the time featuring a harmonica.

  21. #EDPB has adopted guidelines on pseudonymisation: sheds some light on issues often encountered with pseudonymised data:
    - are they still personal data (yes),
    - is pseudonymisation sufficient to be GDPR compliant (no),
    - should pseudonymisation be able to withstand any possible reidentification (no, but a controller should specify a clear context in which attribution of data to
    specific data subjects is precluded by pseudonymisation)

  24. Juno Observations of Io's Alfvén Wing From 23 Io Radii: agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.co -> "On 13 June, day 165 of 2024, Juno passed through Io's main #Alfvén wing at a distance of ∼23 #Io radii south of the moon during perijove 62. Evidence for this passage was clearly seen in the #Juno plasma wave, magnetometer, and plasma data. The plasma wave signature was an intensification of quasi-electrostatic waves below about 1 kHz with a weaker magnetic component, all lasting for about two minutes. A strong perturbation of the magnetic field consistent with strong field-aligned currents was observed at the edges of the Alfvén wing. Ions in the range below about 1 keV/q were slowed within the Alfvén wing. As with other measurements in Io's Alfvén wing, we observe evidence of filamentation. The power in the Alfvén wing based on the measured Poynting flux is estimated to be ∼500–1,500 × 109 W."

  25. Yesterday's fun gall find was Phylloteras sigma (Cynipidae), a rarely-photographed beauty with no common name. iNaturalist observations are mainly in PA, DE, MD, VA, and DC but BugGuide lists NY, too. Reported on both Quercus alba and Q. muehlenbergii. Little Crum Creek Park, Swarthmore, PA. #GallWeek2025 #gall #galls #cynipidae #oaks #quercus #entomology #nature #gallformers
