My christmas message

My Christmas message is this: if you are analyzing data don't discretize a continuous variable *just* because you're way more familiar with tests and methods for categorical variables than for continuous variables. I'm not saying don't do it, but don't do it just for that reason. It's a bad habit of computing people, I find myself doing it all the time -- but others such as economists don't do it as much. Learn methods that can handle continuous variables and use them. Ho ho ho.

Twitch streaming

(Coffee)I am streaming live DJ sets on Twitch: https://twitch.tv/chato_chateaux

I've played mostly tech house and deep house, with some pop, accompanied by movie clips or pixel art. Take a look at these these clips and the setlists of each session.

Christmas message

My Christmas message is this: if you measured some quantity with a certain precision (say 2 decimal places) and obtained some trailing zeroes, please don't remove them. Don't mix in a table "0.5" and "0.48". Write "0.50" and "0.48" because that is what you measured. Ho ho ho.

My car!

It was just a brief moment so I left the car doors unlocked while I was buying something. I kept looking at the car several times to see if someone was going near it, but when I left the store, the car was not there. It had been stolen! I thought while I ran desperately. Then I woke up. As any normal person, I thought "I've to get out of bed and go check if my car is still there." The thing is, I don't have a car.
