Another delightful #positconf in the books! So lovely to see everyone 🌻 I miss it already! Especially excited about: 🤖 @minecr.bsky.social’s aifeedr 🌬️ Making my code pretty like @davisvaughan.bsky.social’s with air ✨ @emilhvitfeldt.bsky.social’s editable quarto magic 📈 everything @kjhealy.co said

Time for tidyverse dev day! Can’t wait to review some PRs and drink some coffee ☕️ #positconf2025

I've been using Air since switching to Positron and have been loving it. My only criticism is the styling of tibbles (it just breaks them). Apparently that has been solved # fmt: tabular coming soon #PositConf

Air is our incredibly fast R code formatter! Come learn all about it at 2:40pm in Regency V in the Sparking Development Joy session!! We also have hex stickers! #positconf2025 #rstats

Can't wait to see everyone at posit::conf(2025)!! Here's my annual "things to do" list for food, coffee, bakeries, and bars near conf! #positconf2025 #rstats docs.google.com/document/d/1...

Once again, @davisvaughan.bsky.social's extrachecks have saved me from a likely CRAN rejection for an upcoming #RStats package submission. Thanks Davis! github.com/DavisVaughan...

We still have spots available for tidyverse dev day on Sept 19: www.tidyverse.org/blog/2025/07.... Please come along to contribute to the tidyverse and have a bunch of fun along the way! It's open to all, but is most convenient if you're coming to posit::conf or live near Atlanta #rstats

Excited to share my newest quarto revealjs plugin: imagemover Easily reposition and resize images directly in your quarto revealjs slides for a much smoother slidecrafting experience github.com/EmilHvitfeld... #quarto

Ever wonder how an actuary becomes a data science educator? 🤔 Tune into the latest episode of The Test Set with @minecr.bsky.social. We discuss everything from her #RStats journey to her use of LLMs to give students feedback on their code. Listen: thetestset.co, on Spotify, or Apple Podcasts

User! Conference 2026 will take place in Warsaw, Poland 🇵🇱 Provisional dates: Dates Monday 6th July to Thu 9th July 2026. Hope to see you all there. #rstats #user2025 #warsaw

#useR2025 was such a blast! From vibing a last minute talk with @lucystats.bsky.social, to talking about Air with @lionelhenry.bsky.social, to enjoying Duke’s beautiful campus, it really was a fantastic few days! Massive thanks to @minecr.bsky.social for spearheading and making this happen 🎉

in which we vibe code a shiny app at #user2025 📽️ Slides: www.lucymcgowan.com/talk/user2025/

If you've been curious about Air and you're at #useR2025, come watch @lionelhenry.bsky.social and me talk all about it at 1pm in Penn 2!

REPLACE_WHEN!!! Aaaaaaaah this is like an 8 year dream come true!!!

Come watch the most unhinged talk of a lifetime! ✨good vibes only ✨ at #useR2025

You can watch Hadley's keynote at this link: www.youtube.com/live/ctc2kx3... #useR2025

3 weeks ago at #USCOTS2025, @hadley.nz told his llm chat "I'm Hadley Wickham" and it said: "Yeah RIGHT. Even if you WERE the creator of the tidyverse...." etc Today at #useR2025, it said: "Hello your lordship, thank you for gracing us with your presence." Do I sense some model retraining? 🤔 😆

Here we go! #useR2025

We are looking for some community feedback on 3 new dplyr functions! - replace_when() - recode_values() - replace_values() New tools for recoding (think, lookup tables!) and replacing (think, replace `-99` with `NA` in `col`) in the tidyverse - I'm pretty excited about these!

Remember this #rstats post? I wasn't the only one talking about it & the tidyverse team was listening 😎 #databs New #dplyr functions? They're looking for feedback!! 🤔 replace_when, recode_values, replace_values 👀 Read this: github.com/tidyverse/ti... 🗣️ Comment on PR: github.com/tidyverse/ti...

It's the virtual day for useR! Some of the talks are already available, including this one: I always enjoy @juliasilge.com explaining things so if you are curious about the Positron IDE (it's out of beta now!), this is for you: www.youtube.com/watch?v=aKSr... #rstats

My @user-conf.bsky.social virtual talk, a first look at Positron for #rstats folks, posted while I was asleep 😴 but you can catch it here: youtu.be/aKSrptGegeo?...

Okay, I saw @libbyheeren.bsky.social mention Air recently but did not realize what it was until today's Data Science Hangout. Looks very cool for formatting code! www.tidyverse.org/blog/2025/02...

The virtual useR! 2025 event is happening tomorrow (August 1). There's still time to register. Claim your spot, for free, before time runs out! The program: user2025.r-project.org/program/virt... Registration: user2025.r-project.org/register #useR2025 #rstats

Today at 12pm ET! In just under an hour!

Making libcurl work in webassembly https://jeroen.github.io/notes/webassembly-curl/

We found a pretty neat way to make curl/httr2 work in WebR:

As an NC resident, I've been following Jeff Jackson's page for a little while. This man and his team work HARD for NC 🇺🇸

So, now I can just write code however (letting go of my controlling ways here) and then I can either cmd + s to format/save, or it will do it for me as soon as my focus leaves the editor pane, for example when I move my cursor to the console. I can set it to format the entire file or just new code.

Libby has finally taken her first breath of Air 😂

We're happy to announce that there will be another #rstats Tidy Development Day after the 2025 posit::conf in Atlanta! www.tidyverse.org/blog/2025/07...

The result of being in the "Writing poetry about statistics" workshop at #USCOTS2025 while all my friends are in the Positron one.... (This one's for you @minecr.bsky.social and @posit.co 😘)

My thanks to the 10 Republican senators who just asked the federal government to unfreeze billions in education funding. They echo the case I’m making in court: that Congress created these programs, approved the plans, and now the funds must go to the students. abcnews.go.com/amp/Politics...

Adding on to another answer @davisvaughan.bsky.social pointed out a super cool Positron feature, Ctrl+Shift+Right (MacOS) to "expand" and Ctrl+Shift+Left to "shrink" the selection. Giving me vim motion vibes 😎 forum.posit.co/t/breakerofc... #Rstats

Another awesome underrated feature of Positron. You whisper "Positron" on Bluesky and you can summon the experts to join your campaign and lend their help, no D20 required. #Rstats

Adding roxygen skeletons is available as a Code Action in the latest Positron version, according to the changelog 🎉 Issue w screen recording: github.com/posit-dev/po... #RStats

Ever wonder how the #tidyverse came to be? 🤔 #TheTestSet's first episode features @hadley.nz on his accidental empire of #RStats packages, bear encounters, and more! Stream it at thetestset.co, Spotify, or Apple Podcasts. #DataAnalytics #PodcastLaunch

Unpopular opinion but the dplyr update where it started to flag if you have multiple to multiple and matches in your join and we all rioted has saved all of us from incorrect reports and few of us knew exactly what a left join was doing. #rstats

The future package turns ten today 🥳 To celebrate, I’ll start a blog series covering recent improvements that set us up for new, exciting ways for writing concurrent #RStats - neater than what our trusty workhorses future.apply & furrr offer www.jottr.org/2025/06/19/f... #parallel #futureverse

Data science junkies, get ready! 🚀 "The Test Set" #podcast trailer is here for your viewing pleasure. Tune in July 1st and every Tuesday after for new episodes with hosts @mchow.com, @hadley.nz, and @wesmckinney.com as they welcome thought leaders in #DataScience. Subscribe now: pos.it/thetestset

Bleeding edge update for the #tidyverse purrr package with even more seamless #rstats parallel maps. Introducing our shiniest new adverb: `in_parallel()`. Just wrap your function to take advantage of blazing fast parallel processing via mirai. pak::pak("tidyverse/purrr") purrr.tidyverse.org/dev/

@davisvaughan.bsky.social 's #Rstats R C package series is very good. I want to see the follow up of this blog's interesting hint at efficiently calling R functions from C blog : blog.davisvaughan.com/posts/2019-0... package: github.com/DavisVaughan...

mirai - minimalist async framework for #RStats - released as an 'r-lib' package. Blog post: Advancing Async Computing in R. shikokuchuo.net/posts/26-mir... mirai provides event-driven async for #RShiny and parallel processing for purrr #tidyverse. Really excited to be working on this at Posit!

America cannot long remain free, nor first among nations, if it becomes the kind of place where universities are dismantled because they don't align politically with the current head of the government.

Hadley Wickham(@hadley.nz) is a developer and teacher with immense impact on the R ecosystem. He is Chief scientist at @posit.co where he leads the Tidyverse team. His talk "I wrote this talk with an LLM" explores how AI can help rather than replace data scientists. Register: user2024.r-project.org
