I don’t do any audio work, but just spent an hour watching a really thoughtful and entertaining essay on remaking Audacity 🎧 Interesting to learn how open source tools are remade, especially all of the UX and HCD stuff. youtu.be/QYM3TWf_G38?...

No, but I was expecting at least one other person at posit::conf to have a %>% tattoo, what gives? #positconf2025 #rstats #databs

Getting into coffee

Friends, for something to be open source, we need to see 1. The data it was trained & evaluated on 2. The code 3. Model architecture 4. Model weights. DeepSeek only gives 3, 4. And I'll see the day that anyone gives us #1 without being forced to do so, because all of them are stealing data.

About to spend 80kr/month until march, just to watch severance episodes the day they come out.

I'm just saying this is syntatically correct #rstats code

Wait, I spent my whole damn life thinking the dollar sign had two lines through the S, am I having an aneurysm?

🧬 How to implement, visualise, and interpret simulations of genetic drift in R. emilmalta.github.io/blog/2025-01... Spent a long time exploring Wright-Fisher model. And made a shinylive app! #rstats #shinylive #genetics #genomics #databs #bioinformatics #biostatistics #populationgenetics #databs

Trying to stay productive with a sick toddler and an infant, running on <4 hours of sleep, guys I may have lost it.

Messing around with shinylive. For real, how are people not freaking out?!! Zero hosting costs, no online requirements, no installation required, nothing not a damn thing. #rstats #databs

Really trying to make an effort not to get caught up in the stupid Trump news cycle again, but with Greenland on his grocery list it’s damn near impossible.

Hi hello, I wrote up a talk I've given a few time to uni students, on exploratory data analysis with demographics data. Check it out here: emilmalta.github.io/blog/2025-01... #rstats #tidyverse #ggplot2 #databs #dataviz #datascience

most important line ive ever seen on a resume

Threads stealing from bluesky? pls, all the instagram features i actually use are stolen from snapchat, meta’s been on this grift since day 1.

Both of my kids got their legal names by me filling out a form on my phone, truly an age of wonders we live in. Not even a laptop, just my fat thumbs racing across an iPhone SE screen. Honestly, they’re lucky their names didn’t autocorrect into something dumb.

Hot take (i guess): Answering a data question by someone needing your help with a snarky “depends on what you mean by x, y and z” doesn’t make you sound smart, it makes you sound kinda mean.

One thing I didn’t expect when I started running, was the amount of jocks and teenagers cheering me on and shouting nice thing at me as I pass🏃

When I was 5, I loved science, which I took to be planets and magnets and chemicals and shit. Soon I realized science was a collective human activity, and these were just the objects of its attention. Anyway, whenever I read an OpEd on how science isn't political, I think "Are you 5 years old?"

“what idiot wrote this garbage?!” > git blame spaghetti.qmd me. it’s always me

I have yet to read anything even remotely as beautiful as this ascii-only gamefaqs walkthrough of Super Metroid with even margins, by rs1n. No double spaces, just careful choice of words. Gorgeous poetry.

I just read the dumb base R vs. tidyverse thread, and kind of want to throw up a little.

Whenever I see #dataBS I go “data bullshit” in my head.

🟡 𝜋 🔗 tinyurl.com/mr249zd5 I like the code for this one. #rstats #ggplot2 #dataviz #databs

How much of that “80 hrs/wk” is just playing diablo 4 and elden ring? I have 2 kids (not 12) and can’t even get through 20 minutes of mario kart without tearing up.

Despite a massive head start, BlueSky has now overtaken Threads in the US 👇

This kind of weather outside. Feels like home ☃️❄️

TIL that Suni Williams (astronaut currently stranded on ISS) actually was the first person to run a marathon in space!

guys, do you think he wants to buy greenland because of the mercator projection?

will you guys ever pick a woman?

First day of paternity leave: Both kids are napping after a bath, and I’ve been on the couch an hour watching reality dating TV.

Some of the most cursed advice I ever got for data wrangling, is that you can make a slow excel workbook faster by opening it in notepad and removing xml tags for formatting. Absolutely unhinged.

Can we call this one twitter?

This starter pack feature is cool, followed 4-5 interest, and scrolling for the past half hour felt like 2019 scrolling.
