Great editorial piece by the always brilliant Richard Thaler. Enjoyed the entertaining intro. Behaviour change can be achieved simply by making our thrash systems less thrash. doi.org/10.1016/j.obhd…

It took me SEVEN years to figure out that you can save a ggplot as a vectorized .svg file ggsave("file.svg"). The svg file can be opened on powerpoint and it will be completely vectorized, even text are still recognized as text boxes! No more recreating plots on illustrator!!!!!

#RStats Whimsy Since Oct 2011, each new release of R programming language has its own nickname. The nicknames are based on the popular American comic strip, Peanuts. You may view all the nicknames from the ({rversions} package!

How ironic that an editorial article promoting #OpenScience is behind a paywall. bjsm.bmj.com/content/early/…

Interesting that a decade ago, the terminology of age-related muscle changes was quite different. Loss of muscle strength was termed 'Kratopenia' (named after Greek god, Kratos) and #dynapenia was referred as the loss of power instead. #Ageing #Sarcopenia sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

#ExerciseIsMedicine but not all exercises work. The need to prescribe evidence-based exercise interventions that are effective especially for #frailty and #sarcopenia. #ACFS2023 #ACFS23

Excellent talk by @mariafiatarone on progressive resistance training as treatment for #frailty and #sarcopenia. Medical practitioners should stop ignoring decades of evidence that resistance training aids in achieving optimal #ageing! #ACFS2023 #ACFS23
