- "Never miss a moment" the advert tells me, halfway through a cycling race I'm trying to watch.
- What are some of the best DAGs you seen that depict time-varying confounding? Could be from a 'real' worked example, or generic. #EpiSky
- I'm thinking in terms of visual depictions. If you include more than one time point and time-invariant confounders things get very messy very quickly.
- Does anyone have access to this paper and willing to share? doi.org/10.1123/ijsp... #AcademicSky
- 3.8 million people in destitution. That's more people than the entire population of Wales, or every city that isn't London.

- I've never had this happen to me before, but I do go back to past papers to check what I previously wrote.
