Big news! 🎉 𝚖𝚊𝚛𝚐𝚒𝚗𝚊𝚕𝚎𝚏𝚏𝚎𝚌𝚝𝚜 1.0.0 for #Rstats is out. It’s a big number and it feels like a big step. I wrote a blog on the challenges of interpreting statistical models, SPEED, cool new features, the future, and a 5 year package development and writing odyssey. arelbundock.com/posts/margin...

Did you have an amazing conference experience this week? Then save the date for #JSM2027, which will be held in Chicago, Illinois, August 8 – 12. See you next year! #STATSSKY #JSM2026 #Statistics #DataScience

Currently attending MAA MathFest in Boston. Just a hop and a skip across town after JSM! Having some great conversations in the opening reception. Come see our books and journals! @joinmaa.bsky.social @tandfresearch.bsky.social

As usual the T&F mixer at JSM is underway and super-busy! Come grab a coffee or a snack! @tandfresearch.bsky.social

Good news from #JSM2026: CSCAR@ISR, a statistical and methodological consulting service designed to support faculty, staff, and graduate students, is now officially open for business at the University of Michigan. This is a rebirth of CSCAR, with new features! Visit cscar.isr.umich.edu for details.

Announcement: Mixer on the Taylor & Francis booth 3:30pm Tue 4 August at JSM! Come say hi and get some free snacks! @amstatnews.bsky.social @tandfresearch.bsky.social

Come and browse our new books in #Statistics and #DataScience at booth #201/300 in the exhibit hall at #JSM2026.

JSM 2026 has so much to offer—including DOGS! Don’t miss your chance to relax with Caring Canines. Stop by Room CC-261 Monday and Tuesday from 12 p.m.–2 p.m., brought to you by ASA GivesBack. tinyurl.com/3taypvfk

Book blurbs deciphered #booksky

I see now we missed an opportunity by not entitling our book "Bayesian Odyssey" instead of "Bayesian Workflow". The priors are polytropic! Still all the case studies are online avehtari.github.io/Bayesian-Wor... (and python translations arviz-devs.github.io/bayesian-wor...) for your adventure

Anyone headed to #JSM2026 next week? Let's talk data storytelling and/or ecological modeling!

I was planning to wrist a blog post at work but Gelman and crew already wrote it for me in their new book :(

Lovely review of #BayesianWorkflow just appeared in ISR. Some highlights: “This is an important book", "beautifully structured", "a tour-de-force", "[certain to] inspire future innovations in Bayesian theory, methodology and computational software.” onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

Bayesian Workflow arriving the week of a deadline and the week before a conference could not be worse timing

Reviews of our Bayesian Workflow book from Bin Yu, David Spiegelhalter, Brad Efron, Christian Robert, Rohan Alexander, and Mine Doğucu! statmodeling.stat.columbia.edu/2026/07/16/r...

Congrats again Felipe. Enjoy your prize! 😁

I've distilled my experience of useR! 2026 Warsaw into a blog post. Hoping that people who couldn't attend get a taste of it, and are motivated to participate in the next one - or come join us for posit::conf(2026) in Houston! #RStats #useR2026 opensource.posit.co/blog/2026-07...

Now that the Bayesian Workflow book is physically in the world, I am spending more time again on 3rd edition of Stat Rethinking. Lots of workflow stuff to weave into it. (Yeah I am still just using latex, you quarto kids get off my lawn.)

Podcast coming on Bayesian workflow! With a contest! statmodeling.stat.columbia.edu/2026/06/08/p...

Looks like my summer read has finally arrived. #rstats @mc-stan.org

The left one mentioning all other authors is a good thing 👍😊

Finally, got a copy of Bayesian workflow book in my hand, and it looks awesome! I really like we did get full colors for figures, too

Look what was waiting on my desk this morning! It's so great to finally see #BayesianWorkflow in print.

Osvaldo is translating the Bayesian Workflow book's case studies to Python, very useful in case you are snake person arviz-devs.github.io/bayesian-wor...

the bayesian workflow book is great so far, filled with experience based reflections and suggestions. I can also see the different voices. I'd bet @rmcelreath.bsky.social would have written at least 10 pages for the early 1p list of useful features of bayesian stats (and I'd have loved every word)

Great to see the Bayesian Workflow book by @statmodeling.bsky.social, @avehtari.bsky.social, @rmcelreath.bsky.social et al is already going viral on BlueSky! Please post a photo of your copy using the hashtag #BayesianWorkflow...! 😀 routledge.com/9780367490140 #RStats #DataScience #Bayesian

My summer reading arrived!! @emilyrcwilson.bsky.social @avehtari.bsky.social @rmcelreath.bsky.social @statmodeling.bsky.social @modrakm.bsky.social

Bayesian Workflow is available on Kindle on 2026-08-28. I wonder how good the formatting is on the Kindle version. @avehtari.bsky.social @rmcelreath.bsky.social

Thrilling news for me as I’m waiting for my Bayesian Workflow pre order to come!

Picked this up today for some light summer reading! Looking forward to diving in. Hope to understand at least 25% of it. @rmcelreath.bsky.social @avehtari.bsky.social

Oh, yess! My precious!

Bad day to be a p-value @rmcelreath.bsky.social @avehtari.bsky.social @vianeylb.bsky.social

@aloctavodia.bsky.social has been porting Bayesian Workflow book avehtari.github.io/Bayesian-Wor... case studies to Python using CmdStanPy, numpyro, ArviZ, Bambi, and kulprit arviz-devs.github.io/bayesian-wor... He is working on porting the rest of the case studies, too

📘 With the release of our textbook "Bayesian Workflow" (avehtari.github.io/Bayesian-Wor...), I figured I'd also share the content of my graduate course on the topic at UBC. 🌎 charlesm93.github.io/stat547/ The course contains overlapping and complementary material, homeworks and reading.

Which to read first…

Bayesian Workflow exists as a physical book! statmodeling.stat.columbia.edu/2026/06/27/b...

From Chapter 1 of the new Bayesian Workflow book by @statmodeling.bsky.social, @avehtari.bsky.social, @rmcelreath.bsky.social. Two chapters in it already feels like the BDA-SR synthesis the world needed.

Catching up with a few co-authors of "Bayesian Workflow" and fellow Stan developers at #ISBA2026. @paulbuerkner.com @vianeylb.bsky.social @yulingy.bsky.social

Finally getting my hands on it. Love the practical nature of the writing and can feel the years of cumulative experience in the writing. Right now am at how to build, probe and break models. @statmodeling.bsky.social @rmcelreath.bsky.social @avehtari.bsky.social (and others!)
