Ciro Greco of Bauplan wrote up a ‘notebook to prod’ flow using Bauplan and marimo. I wasn’t familiar with marimo before but it reminds me a lot of Hex.
Interesting piece on Gelman’s blog about different ways of weighting survey responses. Also, I’ve never seen anyone abbreviate ‘Generalized Regression’ as ‘GREG’ before.
