In May, I attended Albert Y. Kim’s statistical inference presentation. He and Chester Ismay have co-authored Modern Dive , an open source, electronic textbook which gracefully guides its reader through the daunting subjects of data science, statistics and R.  Note to R neophytes: if you want to learn painlessly, bookmark Modern Dive and commence your journey.

I’ll be posting details on how Modern Dive has helped me resolve work-related analytics issues. You can follow Chester, Albert and myself on Twitter.
