PhyKIT has been undergoing a major transformation. Dozens of new functions/utilities, including plotting.

If you've used PhyKIT before or haven't taken the plunge, please do consider checking it out.

Hey @BuffaloBills , anyone want to go 50/50 to rip some packs and make sure this @JoshAllenQB card comes home to Buffalo?

The Josh Allen 2018 Panini Prizm White Sparkle is an ultra-rare rookie card of one of the NFL’s biggest stars, featuring a stunning shimmer and a low print run.

Who's gonna pull it? Available now in the arcade 🏈

@PushStartArcade I want it. #GoBills

When the beta ends, @PushStartArcade Power Packs are going to change the game.

Ripped a $25 starter pack and copped this absolute beaut.

BTW, this was a catch and release so if you want it, start ripping.

GOOD MORNING

[Bob Literman @BobLiterman]

Dear @RickSteves , I don't know if it upsets your (admittedly lovely) sensibilities, but I know that if you hopped on @BookCameo that lots of people would cherish holiday greetings like only you can truly give!

Agreed! That's why I wrote ggpubfigs, a ggplot2 extension that *only colorblind-friendly color palettes.

Easily make your figures colorblind-friendly with ggpubfigs! https://t.co/frQgsl7zjP
