New work laptop will have Linux. Have advice/suggestions for transitioning from MacOS (OS version, terminal, browser, other apps etc.)? I'm comfortable using Linux/Unix but want don't want to become my own personal sysadmin.
With the semester starting, I wanted to share this advisor meeting guide me and our DEI committee wrote last year to help new (and old!) graduate students establish and maintain good relationships with their advisors! www.umt.edu/biological-s...
For those of you who have written a thesis and for some who haven't this is such a cool story science.anu.edu.au/news-events/...
After reading hundreds and hundreds of PhD theses, we accidentally discovered how to write the perfect PhD acknowledgement: it's a kind of poetry.
today it feels like many things are getting worse in Australia, and the world. but not everything is! so today we have a quiz where you can try and guess the trajectory of various statistics ranging from youth crime to daily commute times... www.theguardian.com/news/ng-inte...
How well can you pick the trend for 10 measures ranging from youth crime to daily commute times?
if you're shivering through this winter in a poorly-insulated, energy inefficient house you're not alone. our rough estimate is that approximately 72% (ie MILLIONS!!) of homes in Australia are only rated 1.8 stars or below on the Nationwide House Energy Rating Scheme scale
I am currently recruiting a computational postdoc in my lab at CU dashnowlab.org The candidate would develop and use computational genomics methods to understand the genetic underpinnings of rare diseases and increase diagnoses. Pay starts at $70k for recent PhD grads
Using alpha to represent variability with size showing mean and colour showing direction. I don't think this adds much over colour=mean, size=SD and is harder to understand.
The donuts lose the heatmap effect so I don't think that works very well.
Some ideas: - Scale size by variability (circle/square) - Donuts (or squares with holes) where outside size is Mean+SD and inside size is Mean-SD
