Awesome Bayes

A curated list of awesome Bayesian statistics blogs and resources. The resources may not be explicitly Bayesian-focused, but you should have a high probability of finding a Bayesian post. Recent posts are provided for (almost) every resource to indicate the likelihood the author is still writing Bayesian posts.
