utterances et al already require a GH account, :mastodon: definitely feels like a more natural fit, especially where you use the toot announcing the blog post as the anchor.
Yes, it would potentially require publishing twice (first for link, second to add masto post ID), but 🤷
I'm trying to add code annotation to a blogpost in my website but it uh.... isnt working. Using the most basic example (to make sure Im doing it right) results in this silly output.
I've reviewed a paper for a big open access journal that charges almost USD 3000 in APC. The abstract had a typo in the first sentence which I didn't point out because I figured that such a big journal with such high article processing costs much surely hire a copy editor to proofread the final version. Apparently not. The typo is still there, right in the first sentence of the abstract.
Scientific publishing really is a big racket, isn't it?
On the other hand, I'm fucking proud of my reviews. I took the time to read and analyse the paper. I did some computations of my own trying to replicate the results. I made sample figures, compared numbers, and I even spent a lot of time reading up on one of the methods and asking people about it. I wrote both reviews with #quartopub and the project has dependencies tracked with renv to make it easily reproducible.
🎉 Migration from #Hugo Wowchemy Academic to #QuartoPub is complete! I am so so so happy with how much easier this is to maintain, and I am impressed at how versatile listings are. I could even replicate the Academic feature of listing the publications associated with each group member on their respective author's page! https://faculty.washington.edu/masiello/
@andrew I just ran into an question where I don’t know how to customize a gt table when using the docx #QuartoPub format. Good to keep this pattern in mind as a potential workaround!
WAIT there's an even better solution thanks to @baptnz knitr::include_graphics() has an auto_pdf argument that will switch to PDF instead of PNG automatically. So there's no need to do any conditional output checking—you can just set auto_pdf = TRUE or use a global knitr .graphics .auto_pdf option #rstats#QuartoPub
I had fun trying out the all-new Quarto Dashboards by building a dashboard for tracking citizen tickets for the city of Norfolk, VA!
It's a static dashboard with periodic updates, built automatically on GitHub Actions and using awesome #RStats tooling like {renv} and {targets}. Check out the dashboard on #QuartoPub, where you can find links to the source repo and to the Quarto Dashboards docs. https://grrrck.quarto.pub/mynorfolk-dash/
In #rstats {gt} can create HTML and PDF tables, and you can control column widths with pct(), but that breaks PDFs. So I made a little wrapper that uses pct() for HTML & converts %s to inches for PDF #QuartoPub
people good with VS Code / #QuartoPub: is there a way to change the font and/or font size for .qmd files in visual editor mode in VS Code? For now I've just been zooming in/out, but that changes the whole VS Code UI
Apropos of nothing, if you've ever used #Quarto from the command line, you owe it to yourself to check out qvm for installing new releases (and downgrading to older versions when necessary):
You want to test a pretty new feature in Quarto 1.4 pre-release and help improving it before the release?
You like dashboard and was hoping to do some in Quarto?
Lucky you!
just used typst for the first time (for a peer review I had to submit as PDF) and it was ten trillion times easier to work with than LaTeX, 11/10 would recommend
And it works with pandoc / #QuartoPub so you don't even need to learn its special syntax!
Heard that the #quartopub pre-release had lightboxes for images
Seemed like a convenient opportunity to add a 'work in progress' section. Clicking on an image makes should make a gallery mode appear. 👍 to the quarto devs #art
I've made an #rstats Quarto book demo with a wasm-embedded shiny app to demonstrate how class boundaries change with the complexity of natural splines.
