   Good choice for teaching stats

   JASP works very similarly to jamovi. That's not a coincidence, as some JASP developers split off to create jamovi. You can open a single dataset and use the most popular statistics and machine learning methods. But if you have multiple datasets to merge, you must do that in another tool. Also, the dataset must maintain a single structure throughout your analyses. Restructuring or transposing is not allowed. It is commonly said that data scientists spend 80% of their time wrangling data like that, so that's a significant limitation for general use. However, those simplifications make JASP a good choice for teaching. Another advantage for teaching is that the menus are very sparse, but you can add to them easily by downloading additional modules. That's the opposite of similar software such as BlueSky Statistics, SPSS, or Minitab, which install all features at once. If you're looking for free and open-source software, JASP and jamovi are best for teaching while BlueSky Statistics is best for general-purpose analysis.

• Bayesian Epistemology

  For anyone looking for a quick and hands-on dive into the world of Bayesian modelling and inference, I can't recommend JASP enough, made freely available by the University of Amsterdam[0]. I've recommended it before, and it's just a breeze to work with, seeing frequentist and Bayesian analyses side-by-side. [0]: https://jasp-stats.org/. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Introduction to Modern Statistics

  Anyone looking to apply and compare frequentist and bayesian methods within a unified GUI (which is essentially an elegant wrapper to R and selected/custom statistical packages), should check out JASP developed by the University of Amsterdam [0]. It's free to use, and the graphs + captions generated on each step are of publication quality out of the box. Using it truly feels like a 'fresh way' to do... - Source: Hacker News / almost 3 years ago

• Can anyone share spss for macOS?

  Https://jasp-stats.org fully free. Its advisible to learn python, R or matlab for graduate school. Source: about 3 years ago

• Help with my analysis in spss. I have 5 independent (ordinal) variables. 1 Moderator and 1 dependent variable. How do I run a multiple regression in SPSS?

  Also for alternative software that are much easier to use take a look at JASP or jamovi (both are very similar); and as a bonus, neither of these two will require you to manually add product variables to your dataset. Source: about 3 years ago

• [D] Discussion: R, Python, or Excel best way to go?

  If you have no access to SPSS (or SAS, or JMP), then look into JASP (https://jasp-stats.org/). I've only just touched that. One thing I believe is that JASP (as well as JMP) will allow/block off tests and analyses depending on the nature of each column. This means that, for example, if you have groups A, ..., Z, the software will treat those as non-numbers, which can only be used as inputs for variables which... Source: over 3 years ago

• Show HN: Ask your repos what shipped in plain English

  Every commit has a message. Every PR has a title and description. The status update already exists. It's just locked in GitHub. Who this is for: - Founders updating investors - PMs writing release notes - CEOs who want visibility without standups - Anyone who asks "what shipped?" and waits for an engineer to respond What it does: Connect your repos. Ask questions: - "What shipped this month?" - "Who... - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• Show HN: Founders can now chat with their Git history

  Gitmore (https://gitmore.io) – natural language queries across GitHub, GitLab, and Bitbucket. Instead of filtering PRs, scanning commit logs, or asking engineers for updates: - "What shipped last week?" - "Who's been working on the API?" - "Which PRs have been open longest?" - "Summarize this month's releases" Plain English in, plain English out. How it works: Connect your repos via OAuth. We register... - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• Built Gitmore so non-technical founders can understand dev progress

  If you're a founder who doesn't code, you probably rely on engineers to tell you what's shipping. That works until investors ask for updates, customers want a changelog, or you just need to know where things stand. What it does: Connect your repos. Ask questions: "What shipped last week?" "What's in progress?" "Who worked on what?" Get plain English answers from your commit history. Automated reports: Schedule... - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago
