The past 3.5 years were the most intense, joyful, and unpredictable years of my life. I'm grateful for learning from many inspiring researchers and making great friends along the way. Thanks to everyone who was there for me and made this time truly special!06 Jul 2026 08:45 +0000at://did:plc:nfxat2j7qq3yrogiuiodpdod/app.bsky.feed.post/3mpxpanttss2hhttps://bsky.app/profile/bsiepe.bsky.social/post/3mmrjp5avlc23Using (multilevel) VAR models? Ever checked how well they actually fit your data? @jmbh.bsky.social & I created VARcheck, an R package for visual model checking for VAR models.
