Although I just saw this poster... Had to Google who Ron Davis was. Seems weird to have this paid for by a PAC.
Awesome. These folks created a tool that lets you do your own weights! Check it out Seattle voters! @electioncheatsheet.org
ZOTERO HAS A FUNCTION THAT AUTOMATICALLY FIXES THE TITLE CASE??????????????????????????????????????????????????? WHAT?????????????????? YEARS OF MY LIFE BACK!
I got my kid a GoPro knock off for his birthday. I'm asking chatgpt to help me make an age appropriate manual. Why does chatgpt think my child is named Jimothy? (Probably because I was asking about making a Jimothy themed cake?)
I'm grabbing moral panic news clippings. Oh, 1990! "Women have come a long, long way"
Hey @spotifycares.bsky.social when my kids ask for World Cup songs, we don't mean weird AI slop.
I asked ChatGPT to make something like this for my class to make a point. I was impressed!
I have Meta glasses. I rarely use them. But I did use them last weekend to go tide pooling. That is a good use case - videoing cool stuff. But why does my Meta AI app constantly give me misinformation? None of these are true AND no sources either. Wtf? Loosely based on stuff I've done on FB/IG.
I'm reading through this: Müasir Azərbaycan ailəsi: Analitik hesabat (Birinci buraxılış). Bakı: Sosial Tədqiqatlar Mərkəzi. I was intrigued with how Azerbaijanis met their spouse - family/relatives: 53.3%; workplace: 10.1%; school/uni: 9.4%; neighbors: 6.0%; friends: 5.7%; internet: 0.5%.
Age at first marriage, Azerbaijan, UNICEF 2023 data. mics.unicef.org/sites/mics/f...
Next up is learning materials at home. Again, Azerbaijan, 2023, UNICEF data. mics.unicef.org/sites/mics/f...
Wow! I had no idea that feeding newborns something other than breastmilk was THIS common in Azerbaijan. (Azerbaijan, UNICEF, 2023 data) mics.unicef.org/sites/mics/f...
In this study, we cited some older data about Azerbaijani women's knowledge of various types of contraceptives journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1... but this is updated 2023 data [married women only] from UNICEF mics.unicef.org/sites/mics/f...
I'm not looking at the raw data, but the gender imbalance here is certainly interesting. This is Azerbaijani UNICEF data, 2023. mics.unicef.org/sites/mics/f...
I'm gonna assume that this was about a blender, not a juice specific machine. This is from 2023 UNICEF data in Azerbaijan. mics.unicef.org/sites/mics/f... Also, I haven't opened the data file yet, but back in the day when I did work with population level data, I'd often do factor analyses of these.
I'm checking on some UNICEF 2023 Azerbaijan data for something else and I was surprised to see such high home internet access in all of these regions. Maybe this is collapsed with mobile internet? mics.unicef.org/sites/mics/f...
I'm TRYING to do a lit review, but EVERY TIME I open an article, Sage or whomever is mad that I have like ~7 articles open. And then it won't let me in. I have tried to switch browsers, etc. ARGH. Is there a way around this? Maybe use university VPN?
Chatgpt wishes someone would have told it to walk a little further to get better views at Table Mountain. 🤔 #ICA26
