Nerd Nite Sydney

So I was asked to speak at Nerd Nite Sydney last night - they describe it as "a bit like the Discovery Channel... with beer" but it was heaps more fun than that.

I did the Rick Astley thing... yeah, again... and talked a little about exciting times for statistics (new technology etc) and the hard times (low levels of statistical literacy are often a barrier to progress/informed discussion)

You can find out more about Nerd Nite Sydney at http://sydney.nerdnite.com/ or on social media
