I’ve previously said this here but I’ll say it again. The Bayes Rules! Book is amazing at explaining Bayesian stats easily. The way is written is so easy to understand because they put into words the equations and the math!! Imma need the authors to come up with Bayes Rules 2 for more advanced models or models they didn’t include in the first book. 💖😻💘#rstats #bayesRules
@Miles_Ott OMG, stickers in the mail #BayesRules Thanks! #RStats #StatsEd

With the new semester about to start, I want to offer up #BayesRules hex stickers to any instructors teaching with Bayes Rules ( www.bayesrulesbook.com ) so that you may share them with your students.

Just send me your mailing address and the number of stickers you’d like. And I’ll send them out in the mail 🤓📫

I'm reading #bayesrules and I have some second thoughts about Bayesian models. When weakly informative priors are used in `stan_glm()` from {rstanarm}, what's the difference in using a frequentist model? If the priors are so vague, all the weight of the posterior is going to data, isn't it?

Apologies if this is a silly question. Better be silly one time than ignorant all life.

I just sent out round one of #bayesrules stickers including to a professor who is 9,000 miles away from me! 🌏

I’ve got plenty more stickers and I’m super excited to send them with instructors, students, self-learners, and #bayes enthusiasts. Please don’t be shy to ask!

I have many many many #bayesrules hex stickers to give away! 

If you are an instructor using Bayes Rules! for your course, I’d be happy to send you stickers for your students. Just send me your mailing address and the number of stickers you’d like.
