Our latest working paper analyzes the impact of regional coffee chain proximity to NFL stadiums, with big implications for Super Bowl LX.

We mapped every @Starbucks and @dunkindonuts location within 10 miles of an NFL stadium.

[Ministry of Silly Plots @sillyplots]

With Levi's Stadium squarely in Starbucks territory, our analysis favors a Seahawks defensive victory.

The Pats run game will struggle to find their footing, and the Legion of Brew will force at least one turnover, making up for Darnold's inefficiency.

Seahawks 20, Patriots 13

Alright friends, as promised, here's the #RStats code on how to create the Leo chart with ggplot.

Maybe it's worthy of a "how to" Quarto blog post in the future...Feel free to hit me up if you have questions! 😊

too much free time this weekend, so I started exploring/expanding Em & I's wedding playlist with spotifyr from @_RCharlie and tidyclust from @Emil_Hvitfeldt/@KellyBodwin ! clustered current songs, then explored new songs by cluster assignment: https://t.co/aEsz2eI1X4

Success! After scraping lip syncs from different Drag Race shows & seasons, I used spotifyR (Spotify API wrapper) to create a playlist with 300+ songs. 💃

Thank you @_RCharlie - love spotifyR!

What better way to celebrate #OpenDataDay2022 than by publishing my first music infographic, dedicated to @depechemode's very famous album, Violator.
On my website I'll tell you how I made it: https://t.co/3GzmZ9PCT0

Qué mejor manera de celebrar el #OpenDataDay2022 que publicando mi primera infografía musical, dedicada al famosísimo álbum de @depechemode, Violator.
