Understanding Polynomial Models: Correctly Interpreting Random Coefficients in Regression Analysis
The issue with the code is that when using a random polynomial (such as poly), the resulting coefficients have a different interpretation than when using an orthogonal polynomial. In the provided code, the line random = ~ poly(age, 2) uses an orthogonal polynomial, which is the default. However, in the corrected version raw = TRUE, we are specifying that we want to use raw polynomials instead of orthogonal ones. When using raw polynomials, the coefficients have a different interpretation than when using orthogonal polynomials.

How to Sort a List of TIFF Files by Size Using R and Magisk Package
Using a Function on a List of .tif Files to Sort by Size (Based on Pixels) As the question states, you are trying to sort 1000s of tif files based on pixel height and width for ecological purposes. You have written a function that uses the magick package to create a simple image size, achieved by imageinfo$width*imageinfo$height, which compares to a threshold that decides if it’s big or small. Understanding the Error Message The error message you’re encountering is:
