The #PositConf2024 schedule is out! I'll be presenting on using Sverto and other ways to make animated web graphics in #QuartoPub, and my colleague Andrew Bray will be presenting Closeread, a Quarto scrollytelling extension that we've been cooking up!
I am delighted to present a talk at posit::conf() for the first time! 🙌 You can find me in the session "Beautiful And Effective Tables" presenting on "Context is King" - a talk about #rstats variable labels. 🎉 #positconf2024
posit::conf(2024) is an open-source data science conference happening in Seattle on August 12 - 14!
After the final keynote of #positconf2024, connect with R-Ladies Seattle and PyLadies Seattle at the community mixer! Open to all, even if you did not attend the conference.
Join us at posit::conf(2024) on Wednesday, Aug 14 after the last keynote for the joint R-Ladies / PyLadies community mixer in Seattle! 💜 The event is open to the public and posit conf attendees. 🤗 #rstats#rladies#pyladies#positconf2024
So excited to let you all know that I will be speaking at #positconf2024 this year in Seattle! My talk, "Please Let me Merge Before I Start Crying: And Other Things I've Said at The Git Terminal" will be geared towards those who may feel comfortable working independently with Git but need some confidence when working collaboratively.

I'm excited to teach the "What They Forgot To Teach You About R" workshop with E. David Aja at posit conf for the 3rd year! 🎉 Join us to level up your personal R administration 🛠 and debugging skills 🧐. 🤗 #positconf2024#rstats
Excited to report my talk "Reclaiming My Time with Quarto: A Journey from WordPress to Simplicity" has been accepted to #PositConf2024! I'll be talking about how I transformed my Wordpress site to Quarto (www.tylermw.com) using WP's XML export along with R to automate converting complex javascript and media-laden posts to Quarto, and the many improvements to my site (and personal time!) that resulted.
(Plus a short discussion of making 3D buildings in R!)
Couldn't make it to posit::conf last year, but I'm excited to head back to it this year. I'll be giving a talk titled "Report Design in R: Small Tweaks that Make a Big Difference."
It's easy to drown in a sea of design advice, but we at R for the Rest of Us have found that a few small tweaks can make a big difference. In this talk, I will discuss ways that we have learned to make high-quality reports in R.
The posit::conf agenda came out, and I’m super excited to see I’m talking on the first day of the conference! Which means I can spend the majority of the conf in post-talk relief (as opposed to pre-talk anxiety)! Nice.
Soon I'll buy my Super-Fan tickets for #PositConf2024 in Seattle (not available quite yet as far as I can find), but first it's time for one more thread to summarize my threads! Each post in this thread will be flagged with a titled "content warning" to make it easier to find your way back to the top, I hope that works out!
Someone please talk me out of submitting to #positconf2024 because clearly, like, I should take a break right??….even though I had an idea like the week after the last conf was done… and I’ll literally be flying to Seattle from Mexico this year…submitting is a bad idea…RIGHT?!?!
