Last night I finished Chapter 8 of Bolstad's Introduction to Bayesian Statistics, and today I drafted a conference paper set to become the main content of my MSc thesis so I can finally graduate from this fucking place. No, I did not get to use Bayesian stats in my paper: my adviser is a devoted believer in the Ritual of the P-Value (or at least, he believes conference reviewers are believers in the Ritual).

You may be able to convince them that you can do both.
Your job, should you choose to accept it, is to comment on this thread explaining the most awesome thing you've done this month. You may be as blatantly proud of yourself as you feel. You may unabashedly consider yourself the coolest freaking person ever because of that awesome thing you're dying to tell everyone about. This is the place to do just that.
Remember, however, that this isn't any kind of progress thread. Nor is it any kind of proposal thread. This thread is solely for people to talk about the awesome things they have done. Not "will do". Not "are working on". Have already done. This is to cultivate an environment of object level productivity rather than meta-productivity methods.
So, what's the coolest thing you've done this month?
