Just arrived in Houston. Looking forward to a week of Data Science, R, and Viz at #PositConf2026 Come say hi if you see me

On my way to #positconf and hoping to speak to as many people as possible! Topics include but is not limited to: - feature engineering (R and Python) - slidecrafting - cats - model deployment Also got some fresh new stickers!

SEE YOU FOLKS ON MONDAY #positconf #rstats

quarto-hub is really coming together, y'all! I'm so excited to share some of this with you at conf next week. Check out our upcoming collaborative wysiwyg editor working on a fully-styled Quarto 2 page:

one underrated quarto revealjs extension is this one. being able to start and stop videos using fragments means you don't have to use the mouse awkwardly to start and stop, ruining the flow. simply press "next" and the video starts/stops github.com/EmilHvitfeld...

I have recently been enjoying using auto animate with quarto revealjs slides. With this extension you can now also auto animate between different states of rotation, mirroring, skew, and perspective! github.com/EmilHvitfeld... #quarto #slidecrafting
