@KirkHerbstreit @AuburnFootball A "surprise team". Surprise; they suck.

@KirkHerbstreit @AuburnFootball How's that crow tastin' Kirk?

@aubieapes1 @KirkHerbstreit @AuburnFootball Oops.

Dear R vignette writers:
If your package involves new types...please start with a simple example that shows how to build that object from scratch...not complicated applications. Show the nuanced applications after the basics.

#R #RStats

@a_gilardi5 I don't think there is a "review paper" on that topic...but it is covered in some books. See Baddeley et al. (2015) pp341-345 and references therein (as a starting point).

I would be a rich man if I had a dollar for each time I hit Ctrl+r instead of Shift+Enter in Jupyter Notebook. Damned you R. Damned you muscle memory.

@mdsumner It would be cool to have something like the os path module in Python...but in R with some extra whistles for truncating paths from the root like this.

@timminglab I think it is the opposite, actually. As you mature in science, you learn to work ahead rather than last minute.

@rfunctionaday Fun to watch R and Python trade functionality. This is akin to print(str(session.query(...).statement)) from sqlalchemy.

I am an #Rspatial guy at heart, but I have to admit that #pandas,#geopandas, and #matplotlib are a pretty awesome combination in #Python for munging and mapping.

@BlasBenito Use Regularization (Lasso/Ridge) and circumvent the dialectical debates.

[Corey Devin Anderson @SpatialPattern]

@mdsumner Well maybe I misinterpreted "others?" My bad.

[Corey Devin Anderson @SpatialPattern]

@mdsumner Dude have you ever had to use VBA? Wtf. It is designed for a dataframe yet simple things (like getting the number if rows) is super turgid.

@phytools_liam @DaniDrabeck This is what is so great about R. You can talk with the developers directly and they help you personally. And Liam is a great developer to boot.

My undergraduate students are getting worse on an annual basis. Not sure if this is declining selectivity at my institution or something about the quality of education prior to college, or both? Something is off.
