Getting my new slides in shape. I have it on good authority that the typeface I have chosen is "woke" (aka sans serif)
title slide for Statistical Rethinking 2026 Lecture 1: Introduction to Bayesian workflow. The typeface is Atkinson Hyperlegible, a very readable sans serif typeface.

The sigil was drawn in salt and ash, the candles lit at the pentagram points, the incantation declaimed.

There was a shimmer - a demon appeared.

"Curious. What ritual is this?"

"I got it from ChatGPT. I included all protections in my prompt!"

"I see," the demon said and stepped out of the sigil.

Five years on. Millions dead. COVID effectively endemic. The big story is how we are STILL in denial about airborne transmission of respiratory diseases. Good job, libertarians.
