@AndreCVentura Mais uma mulher assassinada por um homem e a preocupação manifestada é a da cor da pele... Que miséria de atitude... Um assassino é um assassino independentemente da cor da pele.

Vai é comer hamburgers...

@sMarten_Winter @hmlfpereira @idiv @DeutscheWelle @maxplanckpress This is so important! Not only to encourage open conversations and increase the sense of not being alone and resilience but also to foster self-awareness to help one to recognize when own behaviour might be crossing a line by following the herd

[Pedro Tarroso @ptarroso]

@hmlfpereira The issue isn't with what we can write but with what we can read. There's many reports of bias in boosting political messages or egos...

I'm gradually transitioning to bluesky. It offers many interesting features that I don't see here.

[Pedro Tarroso @ptarroso]

@Francisc0Amorim @hmlfpereira That's true but the usefulness is that pipes connect together for water flow... If water (data) has to stop at each pipe intersection, than it loses a bit the advantage.

[Pedro Tarroso @ptarroso]

@Francisc0Amorim @hmlfpereira Correction "pipes in R are" 😅

[Pedro Tarroso @ptarroso]

@Francisc0Amorim @hmlfpereira I use pipes a lot in the Linux terminal and they are amazing there because they stream the data! So you can handle easily large amounts of data.

As far as I know, pipes in are are just a sequence of functions calls. So, basically, each pipe waits the previous to be complete

[Pedro Tarroso @ptarroso]

@Francisc0Amorim @hmlfpereira So it does only add more hidden code to execute functions...

But, I want to stress that I don't use but don't want to advocate that is better for everyone not to use... If it makes easier for someone to understand the code, than it has a good enough purpose!

[Pedro Tarroso @ptarroso]

@hmlfpereira @Francisc0Amorim I don't use ggplot either 😅 all my plots start with https://t.co/bCL9Axq19t()

I understand that ggplot facilitates building attractive plots, but I don't find the resulting code easier to read.

I prefer to have my code doing one thing per line rather than finding the +s

[Pedro Tarroso @ptarroso]

@hmlfpereira @Francisc0Amorim I never used the pipe in R... What's the point of having a different language within R where users cannot read each other's code?
Pipes are amazing in Unix terminal but in R they seem to be just a wrap for the first argument of funcs... Don't bring speed, readability or easiness

@Mrichthyologist Hi @Mrichthyologist . I won't enter in details here.. that's for the classes! 😅 But you can use the package geodata to download elevation data and that fllow with that layer, instead of EVI

@iraminamdar78 Hi. There are many packages and serve slightly different purposes. Biomod simplifies some standard processes and is useful for teaching. NichemapR is on the mechanistic side of species modelling, while biomod is correlative.

If you have point data on maps and need to retrieve coordinates, check out the updated #speciesdigitizer R package! It's now compatible with the latest packages to ensure full functionality. Explore it here: https://t.co/HR9FRDsPQD.

🚀 Spatial data with Go! 🌍

I wanted to explore a new language with spatial data and created a tool using Go + Godal (GDAL interface) to generate true color images from Sentinel-2 data. Get the tool here: https://t.co/osHrdgLsxc #golang #spatialdata #gis

Example result

Centenas de km disponíveis para painéis solares? Porque é que os espaços entre as faixas da autoestrada não são aproveitados para painéis solares? Deve ter pouco impacto, não é necessário inutilizar grandes áreas, nem destruir zonas naturais 🌞💡 #EnergiaSolar #Sustentabilidade
