Two Announcements

A couple of announcements:

First: A message from Jeff Leek:

“We are hosting an “unconference” on Google Hangouts. We got some really amazing speakers to talk about the future of statistics. I wonder if you could help advertise the unconference on your blogs. Here is our post:

and the sign up page:

We also hope people will tweet their own ideas with the hashtag #futureofstatistics on Twitter.”

Second:

There is an interesting discussion at Deborah Mayo’s blog:

It is a guest post by Owhadi, Scovel, and Sullivan on their paper: “When Bayesian Inference Shatters”

That’s all
