#DFMs
Majors like Hegseth are known in the military as DFMs. Dumb Fucking Majors. Too dumb to make Lt. Col. and pushed out of the Army at Major.

Version 0.3.0 of the {dfms} package for dynamic factor modelling in R just made it to CRAN, adding support for monthly + quarterly mixed frequency estimation. This allows for easy business cycle indicator estimation. More at sebkrantz.github.io/dfms/article... and sebkrantz.github.io/dfms/. #rstats

I'm excited to share the release and rOpenSci publication of dfms 1.0 (docs.ropensci.org/dfms), a high-performance, feature-rich implementation of Dynamics Factor Models for R, supporting mixed-frequency estimation and news decomposition for nowcasting.

Matt Kenny, a gay former hockey player, was inspired to come out of retirement thanks to Heated Rivalry. In a viral social media post, he's shared the positive impact of his decision.

DFMS booked it for me!

I have a conversation with the DFMS representative calls, she doesn't know what's going on either. I tell her what I know, then I tell her about the meticulous records I've kept of all the DV against ME since 2019. All unreported because I didn't want to end his military career..

One of the instruments on Rosetta was a mass spectrometer – ROSINA DFMS. This mass spectrometer “tasted” a sample of gas in the coma of 67P and figured out what was in the gas based on the mass of each molecule. 🧪🔭🧵3/n

Bluesky isn't big enough yet for this to break containment and properly rile Mancunians up (and obvs I'm exaggerating for comic effect) but this is a serious issue in my view. It confuses things to pretend England's Metro Mayors are comparable to Sco/Wa/NI FM/DFMs when their powers are a world apart
Also! Stop calling what you're doing to England "Devolution", it's not devolution! I don't think we should be precious about status of nations vs regions HOWEVER it's absurd to use the same term for the legislatures at Holyrood/Cardiff Bay/Stormont as we do for letting Andy Burnham play with buses

Peters was awarded the DFC, while gunner LAC Lewis Smith and navigator Sgt Deryk Spencer (operating a beam machine gun) received DFMs. Their aircraft was the only one to return to its home base. The other 2 Ansons had landed at Manston, one being badly shot up, with its gunner fatally wounded.

I asked him what this discussion was about. He said " it's not appropriate for me to tell you over the phone" and said I would be contacted by a DFMS support worker, who would ask my permission to be present for this "discussion". My immediate thought is, ok he's taking steps to move me out...

yeah that's one of the weird things. they are Anglicans! www.episcopalchurch.org/dfms/what-ma... But! If they are in a group that has *named themselves* Anglicans they're quite likely to be among the ones who split to be homophobes.

Sunderland of 461 Squadron on its beaching trolley at Pembroke Dock, Wales. Of the 11 crewmen aboard the aircraft involved on 2nd June, one was killed and several wounded. A DFC, DSO and two DFMs were awarded, as well as a Mention in Dispatches.

Then I met Jake, an exoplanet scientist who had a great technique to isolate HDO! We analyzed ALL the data available. We needed the whole dataset because DFMS only measures the part of the coma right by the spacecraft and we wanted to know if D/H varied. 🔭🧪🧵7/n

Reed was awarded a DSO and the remaining crew were also decorated, with 2 DFCs and 2 DFMs. Unfortunately, they never received their medals. On a mission to Dortmund on 23rd May, all were killed, along with their replacement gunners. They had been shot down by a ‘Wilde Sau’ fighter from JG 300.

There was *No* benefit to supporting Israel in the election! Nada. People where apaaled and there wasn't some economic or scientific or any real tangle be edit to not piss off Israel. The dfms hitched a ride to boat until it sunk them even as people begged to get off.

DFMS was a super powerful mass spectrometer. It could almost isolate water with deuterium (HDO) from other species that have the same mass. But, figuring out how much HDO was in each measurement was really hard. Most people could only evaluate a few measurements at a time by hand! 🔭🧪🧵6/n

Leslie Hyder, who insisted on remaining in the cockpit despite his own injuries, received the DFM. 2 of the gunners, who had jettisoned all removable equipment from the Stirling to save weight on the flight home, received DFMs. The navigator and bomb aimer were awarded DFCs for their efforts.

guys please understand. i've been wanting DFMS for almost 2 years but assumed it was out of my league bc i dont have the mechanical or technical training. so for The Big Boss in our region's fleet maintenance to tell me my liddle role aligns heavy w it and to apply, that's actually insane
