I was recently notified that my blog features as one of the Best statistics websites for 2025, here. You know it’s serious when you get a badge:
But more seriously, it’s quite something to be included among those other esteemed individuals, some of whom you may recognize as leading professors, accomplished scientists and practitioners in statistics, computer science, machine learning, and data science. It gives me the sense that at least some of my contributions turns out to be meaningful. I don’t write much (on average one post every 6 weeks or so). I don’t write to accumulate readership, no twitter\X or facebook presence for example. I don’t write about mainstream topics, nor do I write for a broad audience (though occasionally there are opinion pieces). It is therefore doubly nice to be recognized. Thank you.
