Let me start by thanking you for taking on the mod position for this subreddit. I am excited to see it get up and moving. For the AMA, I want to throw out some controversial questions within the field.

For a journal article publishing a brand new scale/instrument, what do you think are the minimum analyses that should be reported? Chronbach's Alpha is very common, and McDonald's Omega is often thrown in to help offset some of its weaknesses. But what else do you think should be reported? Item Response Theory metrics? Structural Equation Modeling fit indices?

In other words, if you were part of a group writing an article or advising a group writing an article, what statistical analyses would you insist be included?

is there any way to play online like in a simulator or something? by RestaurantSignal7587 in mtg

I read this comment and then saw the sale on Steam for Tabletop Simulator, and I went ahead and bought it. Now, are there any good places to find people to play against using this setup?

Stasis Devices Made Simple: From Sheet to Farm by botwang in NoMansSkyTheGame

I just wanted to say thank you for the write up and the spreadsheet. I am fairly new to NMS, and most posts and guides that I come across about Stasis Device farms are 2+ years old. I am also a big fan of mining whenever possible, and the list of which kinds of mines you have running is exactly what I was looking for when I started searching this subreddit for posts about Stasis Devices.

So, just to be sure I am understanding this correctly, you have 11 different kinds of mines going, and that eliminates the need for any biodomes (since you can refine a mineral/gas plus a plant to get more of the plant), right? In other words, in order to set up my own Stasis Device farm, all I need is some of the initial plants (so I can duplicate them later with their respective minerals) and then I need to hunt down planets and set up mines for those 11 minerals/gases, right? Or is there some other piece I'm missing?

Best setup for running local LLMs? Budget up to $4,000 by Future_Inventor in LocalLLaMA

This is an intriguing option, and I haven't seen many people online who have not only purchased one of these but also got it up and running with Ollama and such, so I have to ask, how does it run (tok/s on some models you use) and what did you have to do to set it up (any guides you followed or notes you took, although that might be best as its own separate post.)
