@NicholasStrayer I love your data-driven CV project. Are you still maintaining/using it?

[Brian Danielak @Capbri]

@cava I went to my local Cava in Silver Spring, MD, and they were out of Balsamic Date dressing. I'm sad, because it was my favorite dressing. Will it ever come back?

@angi_home I want to cancel my membership but I can't seem to find a way to do it on your website. Can you help me?

@waffle_iron Verbally abusing Rahul all by yourself?

[Brian Danielak @Capbri]

@revodavid I used to think the problem was that dressing wouldn't easily stick to it. But now I'm not even sure of that.

@neilccbrown @guzdial @brettabecker I could be wrong on this, but I thought @amyjko did work on this exploring how personifying a compiler and the errors it gave students affected them. (Sorry Amy if I'm misremembering!)

@amyjko @jasoncyip @guzdial @WilDoane suggested we could use a single shared Google calendar (UMD has Suite) and give instructional staff read/write access to it. I think that would be far superior to our current system, which is just a static spreadsheet where people list their times.

[Brian Danielak @Capbri]

@amyjko @jasoncyip @guzdial I'm trying to figure out how to organize, manage, and display office hours for 25 instructional staff members in a large intro undergrad course. What tools (if any) do you use to let faculty enter and students view a live office hours schedule?

[Brian Danielak @Capbri]

@WilDoane

[gabby @GabriellaG439]

Fun fact: the reason that \ acts like a line continuation in Bash is not because Bash added special support for line continuations, but rather because the \ is literally escaping the following newline character

[Brian Danielak @Capbri]

@jasoncyip @amyjko @guzdial Because the idea is that students can look at a schedule and go to *anyone's* listed office hours.

[Brian Danielak @Capbri]

@jasoncyip @amyjko @guzdial Right, that works for a single instructor. But I'm saying between instructors and teaching fellows we have more than 25 people listing office hours, and we'd like to have it in a common location where it's easy to update if, say, someone has to cancel their hours on a given day.

I saw this article and immediately thought of you: https://t.co/dpfI5KXF6u

@CMastication When I see "awswrangler" all my brain seems to want to do is read it as "asswrangler" and this is why I can't have nice things.

@shuchig @STEMcoding @theNASEM How can I watch video of the National Academies workshop?

[Brian Danielak @Capbri]

@guzdial @gvwilson To take the other side for a moment: why *wouldn't* you use GitHub for editing a text file? Lots of folks use Google Docs, so I don't think the objection is to using a web-based tool to edit text files.

@Mayacelium @allison_horst @observablehq EESO PRETTY!!!

[Brian Danielak @Capbri]

@chloepouprom Does this help?

@brianwfrank What even is happening here?

[Tesla DuBois @[email protected] @TeslaDuBois]

I've had #datafeminism in the queue for quite a while (thanks first to @mapbosse) and finally started listening on my way home today (encouraged by a conversation with @Capbri at #rstudioconf). I feel like I'm late- it's extremely relevant to my work and interests.
