What a semester in MUSA508 where students went from novice to pitching their geospatial machine learning apps to predict parking spaces, wildfires, opioid overdoses, train delays, AirBnB prices, and restaurant violations! Amazing work all semester long.

The Philadelphia City Commissioners published 4 lists of mail in ballots that might need to be corrected, but the lists were not searchable online. I made a searchable tool so you can find out if your ballot was listed. mafichman.github.io/Potentia…

Congrats to the @phillies on a great season. We had a lot of fun using baseball to teach concepts in statistics during the playoffs. For example - we talked about panel data, the concept of “clutch” and spurious correlations using the baseballr package w @bbref @sean_forman data
