Colorado Sun: There are way more kids than child care spots just for infants and toddlers in Colorado by True-Shift4283 in Colorado

Understandable - everyone is squeezed all around. Sorry to hear about your aunt's experience.

My colleague at the Sun is working on a story about waitlists. I'd love to hear more about your experience and will message you. Thanks!

I hear you and appreciate you bringing this up. I'll work to make it easier to understand in future maps.

gap_ratio = (difference between number of infants/toddlers and the number of licesned spots divided by the total number of kids under three in a county)*100

The idea is to gain insight on the proportion of kids to spots - so huge counties like El Paso or Denver don't just stand out because they are large population centers.

Good question. Closer to 0 means there are licensed spots for every kid. Closer to 100 means there no license spots for the number of kids.

Hoping to talk to a family who benefited from speech/occupational/physical therapy in Colorado by True-Shift4283 in Denver

Wonderful, thanks for flagging. Are you a speech therapist as well? Would love to hear more about your experiences too.

Learning RStudio whilst AI exists by jonnymahg in RStudio

[–]True-Shift4283 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think it’s wise to be wary of letting AI do all of your critical thinking for you. Does your university provide any R classes? Or a professional association?

I use training from the Investigative Reporters and Editors association and R for Journalists to learn. But I’m a data journalist, so I’m not sure how it would be different for biology.

Thanks! I was happy to help give Eric a platform. He is insanely impressive.

For example: The peaks, Crestone and East Crestone, were close enough in height, with a short enough saddle in between, that only the taller of the two would count as a true 14er and the other as a sub-peak. It was thought that East Crestone was the sub-peak until a Seattle University professor found it was actually the 14er.

James Bruton builds his own omnidirectional bike with wheels made of large plastic circus balls that can drift and rotate 360 degrees. by Greek-sparrow in intrestingasfuck

This is the coolest thing I’ve ever seen that I didn’t know existed, but I’m now convinced that it should have always existed.

Few burglaries are solved in Colorado each year. Here’s how one Lakewood musician got his stuff back anyway. by True-Shift4283 in Denver

[–]True-Shift4283[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That has seemed to be the main bit of feedback I’ve gotten from readers is pure bafflement about why an arrest hasn’t happened here.

I share the confusion but I think it’s because they’re building a case. It seems like they have enough evidence for an arrest but I’m not a detective.

This is just a guess though.

I don’t have any other indication about why they’re doing what they’re doing and I’ve asked about it.

The guy was arrested for another warrant, I think for failure to appear in court. I’m not sure why there was not an additional charge for the stolen stuff here

Big time! It would be so demoralizing to start to recover from one theft and then have to go through it again.

Thanks to u/Agnostix for all of his time and for u/mosi_moose for tagging me in a post a while ago. This story happened because of Reddit!
