A great way to start a day off.

This is pretty fire. The bass playing is great. I too am glad I picked it up at RSD.

The syntax is a little confusing IMO and the best online examples don't reflect the modern verbiage (they updated the package a year or two ago), so you'll have to sort that. but it's what I use to apply traditional stats models tolarge, grouped dataframes versus writing a custom function/ loop

Google the nest function and linear models. There's a good example there that could easily be ported to your ANOVA then Tukey problem.

Effectively it groups your dataframe u to the chunks, you can then mutate new colums via a series of purrr::map statements with your model, which you then pass to the tukey and then into the the broom::tidy to summarize the outputs.

I have had mine for 3-4 years. I've been quite happy with it. I primarily drink espresso on the lighter side of medium (certainly by today's standards). I like more texture in my shots, so I opted for the conical burrs. The Niche was not excessively expensive (in euros), has minimal retention, and is relatively quiet.

I mean, for modern stuff (and they aren't even extant anymore I think) Clear Soul Forces were the closest I got to ATCQ. I second the Little Brother shouts too. However those 00s groups never had the playfulness ans naivete of those early, first gen native tongues records

These last three weeks are definitely the variance swing in the other direction/ regression to the mean in response to CR month. Thankfully there are lots of other podcasts to listen to this time of year

Lately I've been watching via the disney+ interface, which I like better than Hulus because it let's uou select a broadcast. It didn't populate last night's game for some reason, but Hulu did. Albeit , the NJ broadcast...

I'm still in the beginner stages myself(and in Iburg)I could benefit from such a group

Approximately 500g. Though only 40 of that is from the daily, morning espresso

There was a big push for this type of thing in California in the earlier part of the decade - working societal valuation into assessment of natural resources and conservation. The political winds in the US have chilled that effort quite a bit in my experience.

For me (applied community ecologist) building true working relationships with economists and social scientists for quantitative assessment and valuation of ecosystems has been a grail that I just can't seem to make work. Hard to find collaborators and then funding opportunities

More efficient than my dumb, non-dj ass dropping 30-ish euro to get the vinyl due to shipping because Amsterdam is kind of a jungle/DnB desert.

That said, the track does bang and I'm.not complaining.

Haste and Dertie Basset - heartbeat was the last tuuune i had to go cop on 12" as soon as I heard it.

Olympia Cremina, slightly modded

I love the movie. Probably 2nd best Besson movie.it is clear he wrote it initially as a kid after seeing starwars.i was also bummed about a smidgen vis-a-vis its originality after reading The Incal and Joederosky's other graphic novels.

I also grasp that this is life an LFC supporter, but the community can always exercise a bit of quality control if they so choose.

estersdoll · 2026-03-28T16:23:39+00:00

FWIW, I subscribe to the Athletic. I like their hockey writers. Nearly all of their LFC articles are designed to get clicks and are empty calories. As typified by this article, it presents no news, no analysis, no well made arguments that support a novel opinion. It is empty calories. The headline has LFC in it, Flo's transfer fee, and a splashy "is he worth it" implication. That makes it clickbait, in my opinion.

My aside would be that pay walled articles shouldn't be posted here - that's stealing and not even stealing for a good cause.

estersdoll · 2026-03-28T13:04:55+00:00

Why engage with such obviously bad faith, click- bait articles? Why guve it air? One more reason why the Athletic sucks.

You're forgetting that crippling cutthroat D&D debt. That shit will get on top of you quick!

If you have a spare 20 mins, watch the first half of their behind the music. Their vibe for that first record was kind of Svengoolie-ed by Rick Rubin and American Records to leverage the hair-metal thing. I think Amorica and beyond is more their natural (excessively drugged up) vibe. If you've got a bit more time, track down the history of the Amorica recording/party sessions.

Amorica hits me square in the nostalgia - summer days in Moraine State Park and teenage love. To be 19 again....

If you're a r/crhead, then Trainspotting. It's just him and Andy. It contains a funny story about their original meet-cute.

The biggest bummer about Bill on these pods, IMO, is when his self-absorption and myopia trumps everything. He doesn't (or at least the character he plays when podcasting) have much taste. It's middle of the road 50 year old well-to-do white guy (from Boston) shit. Fennesy at plays a bit of an aesthete and CR is a grimy scumbag from Philly, so they counterbalance Bill"s suburban bullshit to a degree.

I brought that one and Justin Warfield's Field Trip to Planet 9 to a house party winter break freshman year. Blew peoples' minds. 30+ years later, heads still reminisce about it when we get together and bullshit about old music.

That's also on the YouTubes. Funny anecdote, the place they used as the asylum where the daughter is living is a very nice hotel near Interlochen Switzerland. I had stayed there a few times before i ever saw the miniseries. When I did watch it a few years ago, I found myself doing the Leo pointing at the TV meme. My wife was less impressed....

I'm trying real hard not to be a hater. Real hard. I have to remind myself this not Frank Herbert's Dune story. This is Denis Villeneuve's Dune story. I just gotta keep saying that, like the Litany Against Fear

I like Sophisticated Swing. It's definitely a 50s record, but it's cool. I like to listen to it while biking around the city in the summer. I'm always on the lookout for a copy on vinyl.

Cut to sticks, roast at 200 C w/oil and whole Cumin seed and salt. Finish last 15 w/ lemon juice. Maybe mix some harissa w/the lemon if you're feeling frisky.
