Hi everyone! 👋 I’m Isabella @ivelasq3.bsky.social, formerly a data analyst, now at @posit.co, and your curator this week! There’s always something new in #RStats. I'll be sharing: ✨ Favorite R packages + workflows ✨ News + tools you might have missed ✨ #PositConf2025 recaps ✨ A decade of R memes 🎉

Against my better instincts, I have written some notes on how human probability judgements work and what you should expect from surveys that ask people to guess what proportion of the population is transgender. I hope never to speak of this matter again

I'm considering writing a proposal for R Consortium ISC funding to write a free & open source book on LLMs/AI in R. Advice out there is scattered between different resources. Wondering if this is something the wider #rstats community would be interested in, & what folks would like to see in there?

Hey #rstats friends! 👋 Only one week to go until my "Introduction to R Packages" tutorial at #WOMBAT2025! This is a gentle introduction to making R packages, going from initial code to `devtools::check()` Still plenty of spots available :) Sign up at: wombat2025.numbat.space

for once i have managed to write a short blog post on a lazy sunday arvo, picking up on a suggestion from @coolbutuseless.fosstodon.org.ap.brid.gy for generating procedural palettes in #rstats. it works better than i expected blog.djnavarro.net/posts/2025-0...

We still have spots available for tidyverse dev day on Sept 19: www.tidyverse.org/blog/2025/07.... Please come along to contribute to the tidyverse and have a bunch of fun along the way! It's open to all, but is most convenient if you're coming to posit::conf or live near Atlanta #rstats

In case you didn't know: You can run your package unit tests with {testthat} in parallel with two simple steps (see testthat.r-lib.org/articles/par...): tldr: 1. Add `Config/testthat/parallel: true` to DESCRIPTION. 2. Add `TESTTHAT_CPUS=8` to your .Renviron and restart R. #rstats

Hello #dataBS (& especially #TidyTuesday) fam! I'm trying to organize a thing to help me keep TidyTuesday running smoothly, but first I need to get a bit of a runway. Every week I curate a TT dataset, and it's wearing me down. Please see github.com/rfordatascie... for some ways you can help! #RStats

Hi #rstats! Does anyone know of any good free online self-paced comprehensive R video courses for complete beginners? Ideally, with interactive exercises that would be automatically checked, and the ability to gain certificates. Thanks!

Excited to share a new #rstats project: ggplot2 layer explorer #shiny app! My latest experiment in demystifying ggplot2 internals gives you interactive control over the rendering pipeline. I hope this helps make the internals more accessible and, most importantly, fun! 😄 github.com/yjunechoe/gg...

At Posit, we love @typst.app: ⚡ Make PDFs in milliseconds, not minutes ✨ The power of LaTeX with today's technologies ✍️ Modern typography (including emojis!) 🧠 Clear mental model So I'm thrilled to announce that we're now supporting its development: posit.co/blog/posit-a... #rstats

I think I have finally managed to articulate this very fundamental but slightly counterintuitive fact about how shell redirection works

Really looking forward to today’s data visualisation class, where I’ll be going behind the scenes to walk through the little design decisions that can transform a chart. Free to watch for anyone interested: www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/designing-... (Recording will be available later)

The Trump administration continues to ignore the courts. 278 men are still in CECOT prison without a trial, sentence, or any form of due process. Here's one of their stories. Dad is in CECOT. Mom, deported to Venezuela. Their beautiful toddler, in foster care in the US, whereabouts unknown.

R 4.5.0 is released and includes the `penguins` data popularised by {palmerpenguins} 📦! Some variable name changes means that scripts need editing to use the built-in datasets. The new {basepenguins} 📦 automates that! ellakaye.github.io/basepenguins #RStats
