Using Jupyter Notebooks?

[probably-clg]

Hi everyone- I've been watching Mick debunk UAP/conspiracy theories for quite some time and am happy to join. I do a lot of work with statistics and have tried some dubunks myself. However, due to the use of code to generate Bayesian/Monte Carlo-based probabilities and resulting graphs, I use Jupyter Notebooks to show the code and output (Google Colab). Is Metabunk posting the proper forum to present such work? It's an honest way to show your work but some people likely don't care about the code that drives the analysis.

I think putting the code directly in your posts would make them harder to follow for the less technically inclined, but you can (should?) link a GitHub page or put your source code in the attachments.
Welcome !

Welcome !

Thank you! This is precisely what I'll do. Look forward to interacting with everybody here!

Having a link to a working notebook (or at least Github) would probably be better than attachments
