Data science & statistics videos

Data science videos are most useful when they help you distinguish a striking result from a trustworthy analysis. Begin with how findings can mislead, then examine the workflow that produced and communicates them.

Research claims and notebook state

The research-reliability explainer is a general entry into why a published claim may deserve further checking. Grus’s notebook critique is aimed more directly at programmers who use interactive analysis. Treat the pair as questions about evidence and reproducibility, not a ban on a particular tool. Try rerunning a small analysis from a clean process with its data and assumptions recorded.

Questions to take into the video

A critique of research practice does not mean every paper is wrong, and a critique of notebooks does not make scripts automatically reproducible.
