I'm delighted to announce I started work at Prodigy this week 😃
10 Sep 2021
It was a busy week for our new team member & #DataScientist @AndyPryke who saw both his kids head into their first day of school while he headed into his first day at Prodigy!🧡
Welcome to the team, Andy! #insideprodigy #meettheteam #backtoschool

I just love this!
“I have students who are low-performing in my class as well as gifted students. In Prodigy, my low-performing students can compete with my high-performing students without tension or negative consequences, which causes them to perform better.”

Through the pandemic, Prodigy was there for the Beulah Elementary to help boost learning!
On average, students from Beulah Elementary School mastered more skills per month on Prodigy in 2019-20 compared to 2018-19.
Check out the success story!

Is there a recording of the #useR2020 Tackling Climate Change breakout panel? I'm afraid I missed it. @olga_mie @useR2020muc

Great article on coronavirus risks with model to predict for your region. Charts clearly explain expected growth & why the official numbers lag behind the actual numbers.

Very interesting explanation of how to determine disease spread from virus genomes

I wrote a blog post that details Saturday's finding of "cryptic transmission" of #SARSCoV2 in Washington State. Genomic evidence suggests that #COVID19 has been circulating here since Jan 15, but undetected due to lack of testing. bedford.io/blog/ncov-cryptic…

Good visualisation of how the Wuhan Coronavirus compares with other diseases.
Key takeaways: less fatal than some "big name" diseases, but might spread faster

We have a highly automated data science system which builds, checks and deploys 100s of models (binary prediction, recommender etc) for clients each week.
What open source or commercial options there are for this data science use case, or parts of it?

I used to use this data a lot for demos. Great to see it presented so clearly.

In preparation for a talk about post-processing #rstats #ggplot2 graphs using #Illustrator, I prepared a frame about the famous wine dataset from the UCI machine learning repository (archive.ics.uci.edu/ml/datas…)

So we didn’t win the Brazil Tech Awards by just 0.2 points can you believe it! 😆
However, The President of FIESP has offered us 10 yrs of Acceleration which is huge as they represent all industries in São Paulo which is bigger than the UK! So a great result! #braziltechaward

Good essay on how machine learning helps us to understand our real, personal, worlds.

Hi @tacticalvote, I see your data sources I your website 😊 but couldn't find information on your modelling. Do you have a description of the process & a git repo?

Very nicely summarised...

Very useful!

Some great work here on text analysis of diverse, real world, stories. Also has a useful "Ethical Considerations" section for anyone doing similar work.

What can we learn from a set of 3000 birth stories? 🐣 @dmimno, @karen_ec_levy, and I explore an online community's shared understanding of childbirth through a computational analysis of narrative patterns and power dynamics. #CSCW2019

Modern global warming has been ~10x faster than any warming and temperature is now higher than any time in at least the past 20,000 years. Without us, very slow orbital cooling (23,000-year precession cycle) would have continued. More on these data: realclimate.org/index.php/ar…
