18F was doing exactly the type of work that DOGE claims to want – yet we were eliminated shortly after midnight. Read our letter to the American people: 18f.org

The community effort to make the penguins data accessible to all R users took almost exactly 2 years to date!! Our first email exchange was February 19, 2023. Thank you to our international forces of nature that made this happen! @ellakaye.co.uk @HeathrTurnr.fosstodon.org.ap.brid.gy 🐧🐧🐧🐧🐧🐧

I just posted a new preprint and here it is in memes (sorry)

To all the #pyladies and #rladies out there - if you have a blog or a YouTube channel and want to be added, feel free to reach out! Your content will then be featured by the @pyladies-bot.bsky.social or @rladies-bot.bsky.social 🙌

Seeking examples of DevRel job postings that focus less on one way marketing to audiences, and lean more toward improving the developer experience. Seen any that speak to you lately? Hook me up 🪝 #dataBS

Next up in the school email queue: norovirus 😤

💡 Tip: You can set your website as your username on Bluesky! This is one form of self-verification, and we especially encourage official organizations and brands to do this! Examples include @npr.org @react.dev @duolingobrasil.com.br. Here's our guide for how to do this:

Everyone should rise up and just write as many "how to draw a part of the fucking owl" articles as we can!

I get why content writers keep focusing on beginner topics, whether it's intro to DS or intro to wtf a heat pump is .. but dammit, we need more people writing intermediate+ stuff

This is early days to show... @manzt.sh and I made a Jupyter sidecar for use with `jupyter console` and @zed.dev. Run `cargo install sidecar` to get access.

Oh cool got the first dreaded LICE email of the school year 😬

This week I got a promotion to VP of Product @ Anaconda 🐍🐍🐍 To celebrate 🎉 I am going to be speaking about open source + product at a few events soon: What burning questions would you want to ask me? What are you curious to learn more about? And if you are a conda user, what should we fix? 🦸‍♀️

Nothing like waking up to a post like this- hoping you have just as awesome of a wake up call on Tuesday 🤠@kenkoonwong.bsky.social

I have shared this talk about the #r-universe by @drmowinckels.bsky.social so many times- her expertise and enthusiasm is so infectious as always 🥰 m.youtube.com/watch?v=XDiy...

I love how easy it is to use your own domain in your handle here. On a related note hugo apero is very fun to play with. github.com/hugo-apero/

This is such a great quote ‼️ Now I just want to read (or write 🤔) the follow up to this classic: hbr.org/2012/10/data...

Question for #databs folks: I am searching for a recent write up of how data careers/titles are evolving. Has anyone written or read something that resonated on this lately? I’m hoping for a boots on the ground point-of-view of basically “where have all the data scientists gone” 🤠

Thank you so much for including me @cosima.bsky.social Follow @rladies-bot.bsky.social to get to know more #womenintech

One million thank yous to @apreshill.com for updating the Hugo Apero theme with a newer version of font awesome so I can add the bluesky logo to my socials! #rstats Code to update your site here: hugo-apero-docs.netlify.app/start/create...

Very cool :)

Hey folks 👋 So many new faces I want to meet! Please introduce yourself here - I want to meet folks who do not just reflect and write about it, but actually go build or ship or code or teach or add something new to the world based on their reflections. Links help so I can boost your signal ☕️

FYI, I don't know of a tool to search lists outside of just searching for the word "starter pack" but one way to find out what packs/list you're on and maybe bringing you followers is to go to clearsky.app and search your account

Lots of Data and AI people joining Bluesky, I am afraid I will have to split the starter pack as it is already crowded with 150 people go.bsky.app/7D4NApV #rstats #ai #datascience #bayesian

R-Universe, our R repository, CI, and discovery service at @rOpenSci.hachyderm.io.ap.brid.gy, has new API docs thanks to Maëlle Salmon (and Google Season of Docs funding)! Also a package, {universe}, for fetching data to your heart’s content 😊 docs.r-universe.dev/browse/api.h... #RStats

My first action on here was to make an R-Ladies starter pack! Comment with accounts I might be missing as I'm just starting out here! go.bsky.app/Vgxwa2F #rstats #rladies

So so so pumped to have successfully roped @tanyashapiro.bsky.social into this benchmarking data report produced by my team at Voltron Data. I love so many of the plots she dreamed up, and how the interactivity from Observable Plot draws you in to explore more: voltrondata.com/benchmarks/t...

Y’all, @apreshill.com’s Hugo Apéro theme (hugo-apero.netlify.app) is super good and so well documented 👏🏻 I was so anxious about migrating it but it ended up being way less trouble than I thought it would be.

Enormous thank you to PyData Amsterdam for inviting me to keynote at a beautiful venue! Slides and notes from my talk, "Build and keep your context window" are all here: vickiboykis.com/2023/09/13/b...

If I did a penguin pic a day I wonder how long it would last I have a lot of penguin pics

I wish I was able to take on this challenge, but who among us will be creating an rstats feed for bluesky? https://github.com/bluesky-social/feed-generator

3 truths + 1 lie 😂 Happy Mother’s Day to my fellow project-ers out there! We push to prod on Sundays 📦

I'd honestly love to know the tipping point for the number of employees at a company before you start hearing people say things like "the powers that be."

This was the first song I heard on the radio after getting my COVID-19 vaccine in a parking lot. What a time to be alive 🙃

These instructions for setting up Blue Sky with my domain in Netlify worked refreshingly well! Really like being @apreshill.com on here

I want all of y’all to watch “Oh Belinda” on Netflix so we can talk about it 🧴💆‍♀️🛀
