anybody got cheat codes for finding #rstats jobs they're willing to share?

Day 5 of #AdventofCode went smoother for me than yesterday, but I struggled with part 2 until learning from others' solutions

Learning just how rusty I am with matrices today.... #AdventofCode #rstats

Day 2 of #AdventofCode stumped me for a while, but thankfully I was able to troubleshoot with others' solutions on here. Moving right along, here's my attempt at day 3 #rstats

I just completed "Historian Hysteria" - Day 1 - Advent of Code 2024 #AdventOfCode adventofcode.com/2024/day/1

Catching up on Advent of Code with my day 1 solution #rstats

I now dedicate the first 20+ lines of my user facing functions to argument validation. I cannot emphasize how helpful this is for preventing bugs. Read about r-lib standalone check: josiahparry.com/posts/2024-0... #rstats

just remembered this scales R package function that quickly makes your large dollar amounts into human friendly units, and it takes care of those changing units from say millions to billions #RStats scales::label_dollar(scale_cut = cut_short_scale() reference: scales.r-lib.org/reference/la...

To celebrate this gem of a book by @statsteph.bsky.social, @ivelasq3.bsky.social and Rebecca Powell on complex survey data with #RStats and the #tidyverse, we are giving away one copy to a lucky winner. To enter, re-post this and follow me by Nov 24. Not affiliated with bsky.

anybody handy with #rstats or #rayshader able to diagnose what's going on here? looks cool but...

#30DayMapChallenge Day 13: A new tool. I finally took the leap and experimented with DuckDB to create and access spatial data from #rstats. #gis #duckdb mel-likes-maps.micro.blog/2024/11/1…

agree 100% on this. polars was the main reason I waded back into learning python for day-to-day data manipulation, instead of just turning to it for specific applications (e.g. webscraping)

One of the weitd things about learning Python as an R person is that you're already pretty good at all the cool new data manipulation patterns. labs.quansight.org/blog/datafra...?

The R-universe search engine WebUI now lazy-loads the cards (upon scrolling), such that we can include more results while making the page still load instantly! Have a look, e.g. r-universe.dev/search?q=json

yesss! getting in the habit of loading up {scales} was a huge upgrade to my workflow. same for the fmt_* helper functions in {gt} gt.rstudio.com/reference/in...

IBD Doctor@ibddoctor.bsky.social · 2y ago

For #rstats folks, sharing this post from @cararthompson.bsky.social on the power of {scales} (a ggplot2 dependency you probably already have) to format more readable numbers (in tables, plots, etc.) www.cararthompson.com/posts/2024-0...

I wrote about crunching numbers on power outages, and how one could try to recreate EIA figures on the average number of outages people across the US experience jdnricardo.com/posts/eaglei...
