I don't know who needs to hear this, but if you want to look at all columns of a tibble (which has the somewhat annoying habit of only showing you as many columns as you have space for), just pipe it into print(width = Inf): df |> print(width = Inf) #rstats
Only one week to go until my full-day "Python for R Users" workshop! This workshop is designed for R users interested in learning Python and expanding their coding toolkit. Join me to learn Python from an R-friendly perspective! Click here to register: instats.org/seminar/pyth...

If you're teaching R, or statistics, and you want your students to get more practice of data wrangling with "messy" data, you can use the {messy} package to turn the clean data you currently use for examples into more realistic looking data! #RStats #StatsEd
Came across this fun #rstats package from @nrennie.bsky.social that turns clean datasets into messy ones. github.com/nrennie/messy
Making things "pretty" has never been where I find the most joy in data work. So, I'm super excited about @posit.co 's {brand.yml} framework for adding unified styling across Quarto, Shiny, and more at minimal effort 🤩 posit-dev.github.io/brand-yml/ Site also featuring best at-a-glance roadmap
A few things I've been working on lately: elmer, elmer.tidyverse.org, is a new package to make it easier to work with LLMs (hosted and local) from #rstats. It includes helps for structured data extraction and tool calling, and an easy way to upload a plot. Joint work with Joe Cheng.
Some news: I've just open-sourced the draft of a book I'm working on about how #rstats tidymodels users can make their code run faster without sacrificing predictive performance! www.simonpcouch.com/blog/2024-10...
y'all probably know i ❤️labelled data. the dev version of {ggplot2} has a new feature that automatically applies variable labels when plotting 😍✨ thank you @teunbrand.bsky.social!!! 🙏 #rstats
Check out the new `pastum` extension for Positron (and VS Code I guess)—it's {datapasta} for Positron! It works with both R (base R, tibble, and data.frame) and Python (pandas and polars) github.com/atsyplenkov/... #rstats #python
Hello world 👋 (This is how you're supposed to start with any new programming language/social media platform, right?)
