First release {r2c}, a new experimental #rstats pkg to convert* R to C for blazing fast group statistics. Lots of caveats, but pretty exciting IMO.

A DiD update. I've been editing my nonlinear DiD paper and I have posted a working paper here:

https://www.researchgate.net/publication/362532821_Simple_Approaches_to_Nonlinear_Difference-in-Differences_with_Panel_Data

It's actually more up to date than the latest version of the linear paper.

This is unscientific but I’m curious…

How many times, to your knowledge, have you had Covid-19 so far?

Interested in bandwidth perf between host and device?

This video by @tjdeakin shows the results of a benchmark that compares memory bandwidth on different hardware and programming models.

It is shown that #OpenMP has the best portable performance!

No sé a ustedes, pero a mí me hace ruido que facultades, escuelas, etc. hagan declaraciones en favor del Apruebo o el Rechazo.

Yo opino que las declaraciones en estas materias las deben hacer personas (identificando su rol si quieren), pero personas, ciudadanos.

The USPS is not a corporation. There are no share holders. There is no requirement to turn a profit.

Would you make the Marine Corps turn a profit? How about the Centers For Disease Control?

This makes zero sense unless you are lobbying for one of the private shipping companies https://twitter.com/govexec/status/1552764373801635840

The 20th anniversary of the Girvan-Newman paper is a good time to check how network community detection is doing. Take a look at our overview of the field, just out in Nature Physics! Delightful (first) collaboration with network science giant Mark Newman. https://www.nature.com/articles/s41567-022-01716-7
