posit::conf(2024) virtual tickets are now available!
Join us on August 12-14—from all over the world—to live stream the incredible talks and keynotes that will be taking place in Seattle.
We understand that not everyone will be able to make the trip to Seattle this year, so we’re excited to offer a fully virtual offering for everyone as an alternate option.

Do you want to improve #rstats messages in your language?
On July 2nd there will be another tutorial about how to translate R the easy way 😄
Is so easy last release includes my contributions in two languages: #Catalan and Spanish.
If you see some message you want translated in those languages let me know and if you attend the tutorial I'll teach you how (and if not I'll do it myself 😃)
I've started taking advantage of Emac's org-mode with R code snippets. So nifty!
One thing I miss from ESS-mode is the underscore key "_" that produces the assignment operator "<-". Do you know any way of having this functionality within R code blocks in an org document?
A search on stackexchange and the web didn't return very much, or only answers from 10 years ago...
>>> or some keybindings (e.g. for "<-") inside<br></br>>>> an R source code block.<br></br><br></br>This one can be done with<br></br><br></br> (defun dan/org-underscore-command ()<br></br> (interactive)<br></br> (or (org-babel-do-key-sequence-in-edit-buffer "_")<br></br> (org-self-insert-command 1)))<br></br><br></br> (define-key org-mode-map "_" 'dan/org-underscore-command)<br></br><br></br>And another one that you may like is for commenting code:<br></br><br></br> (defun dan/org-comment-dwim (&optional arg)<br></br> (interactive "P")<br></br> (or (org-babel-do-key-sequence-in-edit-buffer "M-;")<br></br> (comment-dwim arg)))<br></br><br></br> (define-key org-mode-map "M-;" 'dan/org-comment-dwim)<br></br><br></br>
(1/2) I am excited to present at the useR!2024 conference on July 2nd!
I am going to run a virtual workshop about deployment and monitoring data and ML pipelines using free and open-source tools. This includes setting pipelines using GitHub Actions, Docker 🐳, R, and Quarto 🚀.
Not traveling to Austria for next month's useR! conference? There's also a free virtual pre-conference on July 2! Sessions range from 4:30 to 21:30 CEST, so there's something for people in every time zone.
Topics include Redefining Interactive Data with Quarto and WebR, Stop Making Spaghetti (Code), Rix: Reproducible Environments with Nix, and more. Plus tutorials like Deploy and Monitor ML Pipelines with Open Source and Free Applications
Registration for tutorials at useR! in Salzburg is open! I'll be teaching an in-person tutorial on Survival Analysis with tidymodels with @topepo .To register for the tutorial, log back into your conference registration and then modify it to include tutorials (and maybe a social event!) in Step 4 "Reg Options." It's a bit of clicking to get there, but the choice of tutorials and social activities is worth it! #RStats#useR2024
Funny how writing a blog post using your own package leads you to finding more friction points and eliminating them in the package. Similar to but not the same as writing whole new functions for the package. #RStats
biopixR, has reached version 1.0.0! From its humble beginnings to the latest updates, we've worked tirelessly to bring you powerful tools for image analysis and processing.
Improved examples
New functions: importImage and scanDir
Automated parameter calculation in objectDetection
Faster computation through vectorization
Browse through our journey: from edge detection to automated calculations, parallel processing, and more!
I've added the R.nvim plugin to #Neovim. It splits the window into panels for editing, viewing output and browsing objects, and it offers everything I'd expect in an R IDE.
It hardly needs any configuration besides registering its own existence. It's comprehensive, thoughtful and underrated, and it's my preferred way to write R code.
🧌 We all know the R startup message. It tells us the version of R we are running, the date, the platform we are running on, and some informative tips on using R. When you've been using R a while, though, it get old. Let me show you how you can customise your startup message! ---
#rstats Do you know what the difference is between nested and packed data? And what does this difference look like in a JSON format? If you're curious about that, please check my last blog post out: https://rdiscovery.netlify.app/posts/2024-05-30_pack-nest/. Cheers😉
I find it WILDLY FRUSTRATING implementing contrast coding in Julia.
If I use ContrastCoding(), I can specify my own contrast matrices (yay!) but I can't label them. So the regression output just reuses my actual factor levels to label an actual model term that means something like, say, 'mean of levels A and B vs. mean of levels C and D'. Or whatever. To interpret my model, I must make physical notes on a piece of paper about what each term means.
In the development version of {collapse} [v2.0.15, available via install.packages("collapse", repos = "https://fastverse.r-universe.dev")], the pivot() function has received a FUN argument to support aggregation, including a number or hard-coded internal functions that do this "on the fly". Initial benchmarks show that this significantly outperforms other pivot table options in R. More at https://sebkrantz.github.io/collapse/reference/pivot.html (feel free to test and give feedback). #rcollapse#rstats#DataScience
🐘✨ Great news from Marcela Victoria Soto at R4HR in Buenos Aires! She recently shared updates about their dynamic activities: "Data analysis is crucial for agile decision-making in companies." Join them on June 1, 2024, for the "Data Visualization in HR" event. Perfect for Spanish-speaking R users interested in HR analytics. 📅👥 Read more: https://www.r-consortium.org/blog/2024/05/30/r4hr-in-buenos-aires-leveraging-r-for-dynamic-hr-solutions
How do I find people (especially women and POC and LGBTQ+) who started as scientists and somehow found their way to programming and love it so much but were never formally trained and so they just figure it out as they go but they make it work anyway?? Too specific?? (I’m a half #filipino woman and ally, let’s be pals?) #python#rstats#diversityintech
