webr (r-wasm) is so powerful!
The r-universe node stack now provides data export links, which use webr to convert pkg datasets on-the-fly to json (via jsonlite) xlsx (via writexl), csv (via data.table), etc. Try it yourself eg: https://t.co/7evUkZN35e

There was an audible "WOW" from the audience when @juliesquid showed how you can paste in DOI and automatically generate a citation.

[Melinda Higgins @mhiggins2000]

Me too. I learned S/SPlus in grad school and SAS on a mainframe. Before that I learned Pascal in undergrad and Basic in high school on punch cards.

I had to migrate from S to #rstats 👵

Breaking a talk into episodes is not only great for the audience, but it can also make talk prep feel less overwhelming. You can work on different episodes, depending on which type of mental energy you are able to summon that day.

[R Function A Day @rfunctionaday]

My #rstats solutions to Day 1 of #AdventOfCode

* lag() and lead() from dplyr are so useful!
* Part 2 uses a handy trick: sliding windows of length 3 will have the middle values in common, so you can just compare the values that enter/exit the window

I'm writing a book about the science behind the news. It's about how scientists do science, and how their studies aren't always what you think they are. How, often in good faith, scientists take shortcuts that invalidate their findings, and how you too can spot these.
