For #rstats updates + newsletters, I'll be moving everything here 👇

From next week, all blaze emails will be delivered by Substack. Everything about the newsletters will stay the same (and free), this just makes it a lot easier for me to manage. Here's a sneak peak of The AI engineer newsletter thegenaiengineer.substack.com/p/the-ai-eng...

Weekly recap (Oct 3, 2025): #Rstats updates (from rOpenSci, Blaze, R Works, RWeekly, Posit), Slidecrafting, AI highs & lows, structural variation, biotech, RAG, tinytable, "vibe work," and a few compbio and related papers blog.stephenturner.us/p/weekly-rec...

did anyone notice any issues with their blaze email newsletter this week? seeing a higher rate of bounces and reports from the sending service that usual. I'm thinking of changing the sending service as I'm not sure the AWS service is great. #rstats
