Hmmm... The variable name needs more T's #rstats

I'd say it's 80% of my job #rstats #datascience

A very disheartening aspect of my job is, when asking experienced colleagues for help with my analysis or debugging , is they'll either tell me to "chat with the AI" or send me a link to a chat they've been having with an AI. Not exactly conducive to my learning. #rstats

The adrenaline rush I am getting right now. This must be what Base jumping is like

Working with datasets that definitely require the use of data.table. Genuinely very impressive package #rstats
