Hey #rstats fam, is anyone else having issues with the new Pandas update and reticulate? It's not converting the pandas DataFrames to R for me on AWS SageMaker and I can't quite pin down why.

Question for public health folks: Do harm reduction campaigns -- eg, anti-vaping "you're vaping formaldehyde, which is used in taxidermy"! -- get scooped up by anti-vax kooks? Formaldehyde is in some vaccines, which I understand to be fine! Is the fight on several fronts worth it, all told? +

It’s called ‘vs code’ because the code is an enemy you are fighting

Got distracted while mocking up something in lego studio and realized with the newer part that spans from one corner to another that I can make Truchet tile mosaics!

Tune in MONDAY at 9PM EST as we begin our Xenoblade adventures live on Twitch! Super excited to experience this series for the first time with you all! (Insert picture of Xenoblade cover art)

hey #rstats friends on AWS sagemaker notebooks. Anyone else having reticulate fail to find python after some change either thurs/fri?

No you have to tell it to use Python to count the letters for you

hey #rstats is there a place to see the changes in reticulate 1.43.0 ? I do not see it in the news and currently seeing some code failing to create the conda environment like it did in 1.42.0. I know 1.43.0 just released yesterday on cran, but I don't see it on the change log page

A little while ago, I built a TARDIS using #RStats 🎨 I recently re-built it using D3, and made it interactive with tooltips to reveal Doctor Who trivia! #DataViz #D3

bluh

oh god we hit the dyeing potatoes phase sooner than I expected

this is especially bananas because if you click through to read the full answers the models tend to add stuff like “by the way this is really hacky and you would definitely want to consider some other factors…” Gemini calls its own formula “problematic”

I'm going to the lego house in like 2 weeks and it's what is keeping me from doom scrolling too much

wtf

Javascript runs on vibes 🥺

Just re-discovered Sophie Truax and this song is on a loop in my head www.youtube.com/watch?v=VmCg...

One of the reasons I appreciate @clauswilke.com's DataViz text is this quote, and I think it has applicability beyond just data visualization.

I didn't realize this was a sad occasion.

The demonization of the "filler episode" is what is making modern media fall flat. "What does this contribute to the plot?" It contributes character building and fun, what do YOU contribute? (Annoying white noise)

when you try to convert your text into smaller pieces but all it gives you is Elvish, that’s a tolkienizer

10 bands to get to know me 1. Driveways 2. Goalkeeper 3. Guardrail 4. Blink 182 5. Linkin Park 6. Midwest Pen pals 7. Hot Mulligan 8. Calling All Captains 9. Fall Out Boy 10. Foo Fighters

Apparently I move too slow. I was working on designing a modular version of the Friends botanical garden and lego reveals this which is very close to in line with modular standard

way back on twitter I followed someone who was working at irobot in the data community. Their name escapes me but they had good content. Anyone know if they're on bluesky?

It is necessary to eventually post this to every social media platform I exist on.

Red hot silly peppers

me after pressing live on twitch.tv/lucellia come drop by the stream! :3

Random though, but does anyone have advice/a method of arranging different sized rectangles (frames) in a controlled but semi random manner.

Regular PSA that @grrrck.xyz's tidyexplain animations are phenomenal for visualizing what happens with all of {dplyr}'s join functions and {tidyr}'s pivot_wider and pivot_longer (see all of them here: https://www.garrickadenbuie.com/project/tidyexplain/) #rstats

Because I'm the worst at thinking about taking photos in the moment, I don't have any, but I got to see Driveways & Goalkeeper live in Lakewood Ohio Sunday, and they were awesome!

Yet another new platform, how is this one going for #rstats folks?
