#DataScience question. Does anyone know of a method to make some type of linear regression with time-varying coefficients? Is there some Bayesian (or other) method where last year's coefficient for a variable is the mean of this year's prior? #rstats #Python #stan #Bayesian

Thanks @i_steves for your great talk at #rstudioglobal! Learning so much about combining SQL and R - I'm excited I don't have to type out all the column names anymore 😁

I will definitely start including this button instead of just emailing people both an .html file and a .Rmd file...
TIL you can embed a "code download" button in an HTML #rmarkdown doc so that users can click to download your source .Rmd from the rendered HTML version...without GitHub 🤩 #rstats YAML: --- output: html_document: code_download: true --- Test: elastic-lovelace-155848.netl…

I've made this cheat sheet and I think it's important. Most stats 101 tests are simple linear models - including "non-parametric" tests. It's so simple we should only teach regression. Avoid confusing students with a zoo of named tests. lindeloev.github.io/tests-as… 1/n
