Modern Bayesian statistical practice is built on the universal language of structured priors; the chief tools are priors for A. latent mixtures, B. variable selection (e.g. the horseshoe), C. latent factors and D. hierarchies. Where can students learn all 4 in one place?

Well @plated is 10X better than Blue Apron (who started sending me Steak-ums, remember those?, as “beef medallions“ after their IPO tanked), but after 6 months of complaining about rotten salad _every week_ ... time to switch again. What is actually good?
