I finally updated my EEG package for .

https://bruno.nicenboim.me/eeguana/

It allows or relatively simple but straightforward and tidy analyses of EEG data

Important changes that I recently made are that:
(i) it plays nicely with latest versions of tidyverse packages and (ii) that one can open fif files from MNE (but this is quite experimental atm)

I also recently added several pretrained (static and diachronic) embedding models to the R package text2map.pretrained

https://culturalcartography.gitlab.io/text2map.pretrained/

Anyone who wants to play around with some well-known embedding models (like the HistWords COHA diachronic embeddings) can get up and running in R in a few minutes!

I have a paper on crow behaviour under review that uses agent-based modelling in R to predict survival outcomes. One review is complete, but the editor emailed to ask for more reviewer recommendations because she is struggling to find willing reviewers.

Anyone fancing reviewing a lovely modelling paper about crows?

Empirical Bayes shrinks the rating for @neilhimself toward the mean, which is clearly wrong 😜 but anyway, you can see the code here:
