  1. The daughter's name was Rosetta Stone and the son was Galileo Galilei. There was a dog, a beagle named HMS Beagle. The family's house, on a mountainside in New Hampshire, was called the Institute for Advanced Study.

    The wife was a welder; the husband sold "specialty" mushrooms over the internet.

    "What's with that family?" the guidance counselor asked Rosetta's teacher.

    "Apparently they want to #distill science into a magic of names. Something the dad saw in a vision."

  2. Finally, he was able to #distill everything into a simple answer.
    He went to the archives late at night and found the King, as usual, studying old historical documents.
    Words smiled to see Revin approaching
    "Well?" he said.
    "You should get Her Majesty the pink one," Revin said. (2/2) #wss366

  3. How do you find #quarto #QuartoPub websites? I've been moving my homepage from #distill and find the constant and slow rendering quite frustrating. Am I doing it wrong? I've used the freeze option but it's still much slower than distill. I've moved to #Quarto for other types of documents but I'm not sure I like the implementation for websites.

  4. I'm eyeballs deep into understanding #GaussianProcesses (GPs). There are great resources out there but I can thoroughly recommend this introductory paper on #Distill by Görtler et al. The interactive plots are a great doi.org/10.23915/distill.00017

  5. I need to #distill... #water.

    I tried double pot stove top and it would take a month to make enough for one fill of my humidifier, use $60 in gas and give me an asthma attack.

    Is there an economic way to home distill water, or should I just buy it?

  6. @analyst42 @chrisbeeley I used for a public site and for internal things I just can't share, like connection strings. It's surprising how often I get to share the links to public posts compared to internal links.

  7. @josiah I’m pretty sure I haven’t posted on mine in more than year. Still in . I’ll move to soon and maybe get some momentum back.

  8. Has anybody else tried to add their mastodon link to a #distill postcard? The @ in the link seems to be inserting a citation thing and it is rendering weird

    example in next post.

  9. New #introduction since I left out many #'s last time 😅

    I'm JP, an assistant prof in #engineering at GWU studying the transition to low carbon technologies, mostly #EVs ⚡ 🚗 (but also solar ☀️ , wind 💨 , etc).

    I do a good bit of choice modeling, and I'm also an #rstats fan / developer. I teach R4DS.

    I also build weird split #keyboards ⌨️ , play 🎻 🎹 🎸 , and swing dance 🕺.
