On the blog: building an AI-powered location explorer with Shiny and Claude Intrigued by apps you’ve seen that bridge GIS and LLMs? You can build them yourselves in #rstats! Read the post: walker-data.com/posts/ai-loc...

Announcing Orbital for Python! For Scikit-learn users, this tool transforms your ML pipelines into SQL queries, letting predictions run directly in your database without a #Python environment. Learn more: posit.co/blog/introdu...

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

Risky post! (This is great, fun to read and the frustrated tone throughout really does capture how it feels sometimes to be an experienced programmer trying to argue that "LLMs are actually really useful" in many corners of the internet)

Found some @opensourcepledge.com member companies at #pycon!

Wow, this talk-to-the-data #RStats dashboard of terminated #NSF grants is really something.

Shiny v1.4 is now on PyPI! 🎉 Highlights include bookmarking and new Generative AI documentation. 🔖🤖 Read here for more. 👀 shiny.posit.co/blog/posts/s...

Want to work with me on the Shiny team at @posit.co alongside @jcheng5.bsky.social @winstonchang.bsky.social @schloerke.bsky.social @grrrck.xyz? We're looking for another engineer, apply here posit.co/job-detail/?... #rstats #rshiny #ShinyConf #python #pydata

Slides from my #ShinyConf talk earlier today: "LLM-Powered Shiny apps with ellmer and chatlas" docs.google.com/presentation... #rstats #rshiny #python #ai

We are thrilled to announce chatlas, a Python package that simplifies working with large language models (LLM) in Python! Chat, tool call, stream API calls, RAG, and more, with developer details like typing support and rich console output. Read the post: posit.co/blog/announc... #Python #AI

We're excited for #ShinyConf2025! Posit's Carson Sievert will talk about "Building LLM-Powered Shiny apps via ellmer and chatlas" Learn more and see the full agenda at www.shinyconf.com/agenda. #RShiny #ShinyForPython #rstats

Test BFGS, Nelder-Mead & other numerical optimization algorithms on classic functions like Rosenbrock & Ackley. Compare paths & landscapes in real-time. Built with #rstats #rshiny 🔗 App: shiny.thecoatlessprofessor.com/numerical-op... 💻 Code: github.com/coatless-shi...

Recently I've been working on getting #polars running in #pyodide. This was a fun one, even requiring patches to LLVM's #wasm writer! Everything has now been upstreamed and earlier this week Pyodide v0.27.0 released, including a Wasm build of Polars usable in Pyodide, Shinylive and Quarto Live 🎉

Great work by @halleeshearer.bsky.social in her first first-author paper. With 🎀 shiny app 🎀 to explore how FC reliability fares ACROSS DIFFERENT movies versus rest, region-by-region. Thanks @sneuroble.bsky.social @tingsterx.bsky.social @ninetlab.bsky.social for 👍 collab. doi.org/10.1162/imag...

I finally tried the {shinychat} #RStats 📦 and it's nice to see LLM streaming responses in an R Shiny app! By @jcheng5.bsky.social & @cpsievert.bsky.social at @posit.co github.com/posit-dev/sh... #RShiny #GenAI 1/2

I've been working with a variety of #LLM / #GenAI interfaces in #Python, but I haven't found one that does exactly what I need in a streamlined way. The new chatlas package from Posit may be just that. It supports multiple providers, structured data outputs, and more! posit-dev.github.io/...#LLM
