I’ve used rmarkdown back when i was in academia, having dabbled in jupyter years before. I think the main issue with literate programming is knowing your target audience. people differ wildly in their tech skills, and i guess that those people who use literate programming to its potential are the same who are happy to use org-mode.

others just copy paste their analysis scripts they cobbled together into whatever interface and copy the result into word and start formatting.

just a thought

hello wildcats

well yeah, but there is money in knowing what to avoid. in academia it’s more like “why can’t i reproduce this effect i read about in this fancy paper, am i stupid or what”, when maybe, they just got lucky, or had plenty of very reasonable analysis options to choose from, or simply fudged the numbers. i fear that in much of academia there is a huge incentive to publish at whatever cost

Late to the party, and no offence to buddhism, but i always loved this quote from Terry Pratchett

“Master, what is the difference between a humanistic, monastic system of belief in which wisdom is sought by means of an apparently nonsensical system of questions and answers, and a lot of mystic gibberish made up on the spur of the moment?"

Wen considered this for some time, and at last said: “A fish!”

And Clodpool went away, satisfied.” ― Terry Pratchett, Thief of Time

(copies the quote from https://www.goodreads.com/work/quotes/46982-thief-of-time?page=2 but i’m rather sure its correct, so i didn’t check my copy).

yes, generally it’s l/(1-l), where l is the loss (ranging from 0 to 1). Example: if you loose 10%, your portfolio needs to grow 11.11% to compensate just for the loss. go figure how long that is gonna take

absolutely agree. i just wanted to point out that not everything has to be a video

totally agree with reading more. text is easy to consume, easy to store, (somewhat) easy to verify (if sources are provided), and it keeps (if using dead trees for storage). ever since the pandemic i started reading more and must say i really like it

there multiple types of schuko systems
