parkinsons dataset it is.
fuck off, wrong dataset
the HMDB!!!!
Gary's datasets.
initial lasso attempt
actually make it runnable

"striations" is a word about cannibalism
keeps us on track
actually make this runnable. but it's slow, and doesn't give useful output; pasting into R is the best option at the moment.

Gary found the secret elegant way to write "give me all interaction terms"
add higher order terms

snippet of summary(lm()) from this edition:
I(test_time^2)             -2.206e-07  1.084e-07    -2.036 0.041782 *
I(test_time^3)              1.957e-09  8.971e-10     2.182 0.029191 *
I(test_time^4)             -5.268e-12  2.273e-12    -2.318 0.020509 *
I thought removing the higher order terms would push their weight onto the quadratic.

But this got worse.. probably because the pattern depends on subject (some are up-down, some are down-up, a small amount are flat)

I(test_time^2)             -1.567e-08  1.589e-08    -0.986 0.323984
bug: I was making a *new* subject variable, keeping the old one in place
kill those fuckers
