wedding anniversary, i think it’s kinda neat we moved in together two weeks into dating. Cause of Covid lockdowns. I remember our first date we were making fun of u haul lesbians lolol. Happy #Pride!

My wedding anniversary is June 14th! which is also trump‘s birthday. I like to pretend the White House cage fight is in honor of our love.

Did you know you can search for R packages by what they do, as opposed to just their names? Look! 👉🏼 rwarehouse.netlify.app @kylieainslie.bsky.social made The Warehouse for just this purpose. Send it to a new R programmer today ❤️ because it's the resource we all wish we'd had at some point #rstats

Are there any #rstats folks who use @tally.so for forms who would be willing to take the new {tallyr} R package for a spin? github.com/EllaKaye/tal... Created in a couple of hours this morning with Claude Code using Fable 5. Feedback most appreciated!

went to the mount auburn cemetery some weeks ago. Absolutely beautiful place. i love looking at the old headstones and found one: “died in Boston of malaria-1865” Wild! Anyone have some knowledge of this ?

Ok this is a truly great tweet

Went to the global premiere of Black Swan at the ART. Directed by Sonya Tayeh. So TLDR: Amazing theater magic. Dance choreography was phenomenal, stage effect was absolutely wondrous, and the lighting. Oh god the lighting was magical. Must see. (1/n) #musical #theater #boston

“…and let us think, as we lay stone on stone, that a time is to come when those stones will be held sacred because our hands have touched them, and that men will say, as they look upon the labor and wrought substance of them, 'See! This our fathers did for us.” - a rock I saw in maine

Reminding me that Sk8er Boi is over 20 years old is really a form of violence.

i dont want to code anymore, I want to be a theater essayist #opera

God I would have hated Isabella Stewart Gardner if I was her party guest back in the gilded age. Shin-level sarcophagus everywhere. horrible decorating style. mid art. Uncomfortable decorative furniture. boring Sargent pieces

Literally attending an event because it’s called “Celebrasians” I love it. this aapi month, you gotta have a Celebrasian.

Do you know a good framework to document data analysis choices? Ex: dropping obs, recoding a var, tuning pars, model + test statistics, etc. Ideally human-readable so people don't have to read my entire codebase. Low-maintenance+ machine-readable for bonus points! #RStats #PyData
