Anyone else having issues with CRAN today? I was trying to submit an update to a package but I get an error that the SSL certificate has expired and it won't upload via {curl} and Firefox flags the page as unsafe. #RStats
(1/2) I recently posted a few posts about Rust 🦀 and my intention to leverage it for data science applications. Multiple people asked if Rust is a substitute for R or Python, and the short answer (in my opinion) is no. I see Rust as a complementary or supporting language that could make languages like R and Python faster.
Polaris 🐻❄️ is one example of a Python 🐍 application that uses Rust on the backend. 🧵👇🏼
The world of big data, databases, and R is rapidly evolving with an explosion of tools and packages. We're delighted to announce two workshops at posit::conf(2024) tailored for working with large datasets:
• Big Data in R with Arrow, led by Nic Crane and Steph Hazlitt
• Databases with R led by @kirill
on May 16, 2024, from 4:00 pm - 6:00 pm CEST I'm giving a 2 hour online workshop on reproducibility with #Nix for #RStats users organized by the DIPF (Leibniz Institute for Research and Information in Education)
Time for a re- #Introduction, as I've moved from scholar.social to ottawa.place!
I'm a botanist with AAFC, living and working in Ottawa, Canada. My work involves the diversity and distribution of wild plants, particularly wild berries and invasive species.
I'm also a photographer, coder, maker, hiker. I'm liable to toot about any of this, but probably mostly about #ottawa, #rstats, #botany and #photography, not necessarily in that order.

A new "ISC Working Group 'Marshaling & Serialization in R'"
This WG aims to develop standard practices for marshalling & unmarshalling of #RStats objects. This will involve identifying current problems, raising awareness of it, & coming up with technical solutions.
