R for Data Science, 2nd edition

The second edition of R for Data Science is out, and it's a major reworking of the first edition.

I did a duality thing on so-called "areas of sociological interest" and here's the network of BFFs.
holy shit, I've never seen a review written in such bad faith

Intrigued by the "gossip" metaphor as an alternative to the more usual "surveillance." It's not really neo-institutionalist, but it's close.
I’m back, don’t ask why.

Finally, a solution to the unfairness of authorship ordering in scientific papers! 😂

"Every Author as First Author"

Every Author as First Author

We propose a new standard for writing author names on papers and in bibliographies, which places every author as a first author -- superimposed. This approach enables authors to write papers as true equals, without any advantage given to whoever's name happens to come first alphabetically (for example). We develop the technology for implementing this standard in LaTeX, BibTeX, and HTML; show several examples; and discuss further advantages.

Imagine being in conversation with someone that sporadically decides to replace perfectly good words with more obscure variants.

It's child's play.

Except that the child regularly publishes in AJS.

To all sociologists that feel the need to invent new and unnecessary concepts: this is rude and counterproductive.

It creates artificial breaks with previous work and contributes to the non-cumulative nature of much sociological research.

It creates a false sense of novelty that's not much better from most airport books.
