One more test from #RStats console before I share my wrapper around {bskyr}...

I started to add a `.bsky()` function to my #RStats .Rprofile about a year ago and never finished it until just now. Let's see if it works!

I thought "green thumb" meant "magically lucky with plants," but then I started pruning my indoor tomatoes (to induce fruit + meditatively) and (while washing green off my hands) realized it means "putting in the work in a way outsiders don't understand." Are there similar sayings in other fields?

So the state of Texas will sue the Trump CDC for cutting off covid vaccines, right? wapo.st/4hB1OvP

Thank you so much, Jen! If all goes well, that submission will be the final #TidyTuesday for 2025! It is *so* helpful when people submit datasets! I've been able to implement features to catch errors in datasets, and I have more on the way. Maybe I'll even finally finish the easier to use website!

I only need *5* more dataset curations (and to review those 5 plus the open PR) to be done curating #TidyTuesday for 2025! I can definitely do at least one myself, so I just need 4 of you to curate a dataset! Check out github.com/rfordatascie... for #RStats instructions.

The deportation order is based on Vedam’s conviction for murder—a crime he did not actually commit and for which he’s now been wholly exonerated. He entered the US at 9 months old and was a legal permanent resident before his conviction. We are so, so, so far from the light of justice.

As of yesterday, what I think of as my "Bonsai Tomatoes" have been growing in my Aerogarden for a full year. They still produce tomatoes (I just harvested, so you can't see any red in the photo), but, more importantly, they still produce a ton of leaves, which I can trim to enter a meditative state.

Ohhhhh! I'm reading The Shattering Peace by @scalzi.com , and got to the Big Sci-fi Idea, and just remembered thinking that something like this story would have to happen eventually when the Old Men discussed the underlying tech ~20 yrs ago! I'd completely forgotten that's how they worked! ☺️

Had some fun with today's #TidyTuesday dataset! Here is an annotated streamgraph displaying chess players' age versus title.

More than 1800 detainees are missing after the closure of Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and lawyers can’t find them and they’ve vanished from the ICE database. Feels like this should be a much bigger story www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...

I played around with Positron Assistant a bit this morning. Do y'all spend a LOT of money on these things? I spent $0.70 In 20 minutes debugging an issue the way I would in a $20/month chat on non-API Gemini. I could easily burn through my monthly spend today. Is avoiding copy/paste worth that much?

Got my glass of🍷and walked into the community mixer... And got ~claustrophobic. That room is waaaaaay too small for this group. I'm curious if anybody has a CO2 meter and can see how bad it is. Think I'll head elsewhere in any case, unfortunately! See some of you tomorrow at dev day! #PositConf2025

Looks like I'll see y'all in Houston next year for #PositConf2026! Note: much like Austin, Houston isn't IN Texas so much as (almost) SURROUNDED BY Texas. I can understand if certain insane and evil policies of our government keep people away, though! #PositConf2025

My guess is Detroit for #PositConf2026. #PositConf2025

Want to have a built-in circle of data buddies at the next conference you attend?! Go to community events online!! @jonthegeek.com & I were talking about how our circles online, like the DSLC book clubs & the DS Hangout, let us get to know lots of folks online before seeing them in person <3 #databs

🧵 #PositConf2025 Day 1 Summary I use these social media posts as notes for myself to try to make sure I actually remember the things I saw/heard, and going back to summarize them helps that process. It also serves as a TL;DR, so win-win! I saw 8 talks yesterday. Let's see what I saw!

🧵1/2 maps.app.goo.gl/6YqqHS3raeCx... This statue in Seguin, TX, used to be listed as the "Oldest Largest Pecan Statue". That might seem to break the rule...

After years of complaining about cancel culture, the current administration has taken it to a new and dangerous level by routinely threatening regulatory action against media companies unless they muzzle or fire reporters and commentators it doesn’t like.

This week #TidyTuesday exploring a curated collection of recipes collected from Allrecipes website. I created donut chart subplots to look like plates and added a fork and knife image to each. #pydytuesday #dataviz

I normally only see these ternary plots used to show UK election results, but decided to see if I could make them work for this week's #TidyTuesday data from Allrecipes 📊 A little bit tricky to add annotations to but overall, I quite like the result! #RStats #ggplot2 #DataViz

The 🍗 or the 🍳? #TidyTuesday Looking at the ingredients of over 2000 recipes online, where are different cuisines found on the chicken vs. egg (x-axis) and butter vs. oil (y-axis) scales? As a Scandinavian, I guess I'm part of the egg+butter outlier! Code: github.com/borstell/tid... #R4DS

Got into #TidyTuesday after picking up R this year. Just submitted my first dataset to the challenge—and turned it into my first R package: {tastyR}! 🍽️ Super excited to see what the #rstats community cooks up with the data this week! 😀👀 Glad to have made y'all's Tuesday a lil...tastyR. 🏃🏿‍♂️

The thing with designating a group that doesn't actually exist as a terrorist organization is that they can then say anyone they want is a part of that group.

Kimmel isn't being censored for comments about Charlie Kirk. He's being censored for comments about Trump. Trump didn't give his fellow rapist a lewd drawing of a woman. It was clearly a lewd drawing of a *girl*. Words matter. Stop conceding the point in headlines.
