My #Mastodon bookmarks (and previously twitter) are like a black hole that sucks in everything but will never show it again. Because there’s no sensible way to find anything ever again. For my own use, I created a small web app based on #streamlit that allows me to search and explore my bookmarks. It’s actually proven quite useful already, and now I decided to share the code as is in case anyone else wants to try it. https://github.com/frederik-elwert/mastodon-bookmark-search/

I've made a lightweight glossary #rstats package for quarto and R Markdown documents. You just tag words in your text like `r glossary("term")` and create a glossary table at the end of the section with `glossary_table()`. The definitions can be set in each glossary() function, or pulled from a YAML file.

I'm hoping to submit to CRAN soon, but would love if anyone had time for a quick test and feedback.

Glossaries for Markdown and Quarto Documents

Add glossaries to markdown and quarto documents by tagging individual words. Definitions can be provided inline or in a separate file.

Hoping to make my Mastodon less extinct looking, here's an #introduction!

I'm a quantitative developmental psychologist at Uni Zurich, interested in dynamic systems. Overview of some thoughts: https://cdriver.netlify.app/post/introtodynamics/

I maintain R packages ctsem (hierarchical continuous time dynamic systems) and bigIRT (item response theory models for 'big data').

Dynamic Systems Modeling in Psychology | Charles Driver

What is a dynamic system? Why are they interesting? How do we take bits of the bumbling buzzing confusion around us and pack them into a statistical model of change to make nuanced predictions and test interesting hypotheses about ‘stuff that happens’ so we can better adjust the buzzing confusion to our tastes? I’m turning the class I recently taught into some blog posts, so for some of my opinion, not intended as rigorous philosophy of science / statistics, but as a start to thinking about systems modelling, read on…

Hi all - I am a Professor of Psychology and Neuroscience @PennState University. My research focuses on memory in aging with a focus on false memory and associative memory. I use behavioral and neuroimaging (fMRI, multivariate, univariate; MVPA; RSA; ERS) methods to understand the neural basis of memory and how it might differ in older adults. Hoping to connect with people of similar interests!
