    You get the message that you achieved your standing goal right after the hour in which you achieved it. So it's entirely possible that you stood at 22:10, went to bed at 22:30, and…

    You can do it with ggplot2 using the 'extrafont' library and installing the CM fonts (after loading extrafont, do 'font_install("fontcm")'). Then it's just adding + theme(text=elem…

    If that happened at scale it's unlikely that Norway would still have among the lowest recidivism rates in the world. It may happen occasionally, but saying it's "somewhat common" h…

    Slightly unrelated: Why don't more sites allow hiding of ads for a small fee? Over the last year I've probably donated a lot more money to sites than all advertising revenue I woul…
