Muito tempo sem usar #rstats ... desaprendi tudo e fiquei mal acostumando com python. Quanta burocracia para fazer coisas simples. credo... que delicia :) hahaha
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)
(1/2) I have been following the work of @stevensanderson and David Kum for a few years now, and I am excited to see the release of their new book 🥳- Extending Excel with Python and R 🚀.
The book focuses on the common conjunction and collaboration between data scientists and Excel users. This includes scaling and automating #Excel tasks with #RStats and #Python and core data science applications such as data wrangling, working with APIs, data visualization, and modeling.
So over the past year I have been using #vscode for my #rstats and #python work. my workplace is trying to move to a unified IDE, and vscode allows remote access and WSL integration for free. However, so far it fails to spark joy in me like #RStudio (despite lack of #vim mode) and #PyCharm do. Everything feels clunky, and subpar. The "intelligent" and linting things are also quite broken in R... Has there been extensions that fundamentally change the vscode experience that I should be trying?
is remotes::install_github() currently not working? #RStats
Getting HTTP error 401. Bad credentials. Sys.getenv("GITHUB_PAT”) is empty and anyway, I’m just trying to install from a public repo.
Using R 4.4.0 & remotes_2.5.0 on macOS
I was interested by the crackdown described here and decided to see what would happen if I deleted a few old questions. We’re talking four questions, 10+ years old, of questionable current relevance. Some I could not delete and so I recommended them for closing on the basis of their age. Sure enough, I got a 24-hour ban with a nasty message from the site, and got the dunce cap “Disciplined” added to my profile.
I was never a power user on #stackoverflow in the first place, and nobody was looking to me for advice, but this was enough to prompt me to delete my account. I’m not interested in having my name associated with this kind of organization. Frankly, I’m also not a strong enough #rstats programmer to take the risk of getting coding advice from AI: if it’s badly wrong, which tends to happen at least in other domains — rarely enough that people let down their guard, but often enough to be nonignorable — I might not know. So the value proposition of using their site is not what it was before, and there’s really no reason for me to stay.
People who understand R and RStudio, please help me out.
I've been asked to use it for a class that is neither a stats nor an IT unit, so none of us are experienced with the tech.
Here's the issue:
I open RStudio. It shows me a mostly blank screen with the usual row of menus along the top plus the RStudio logo and name. Each menu displays (empty). In a separate window it opens the RStudio logo only.
I can't work out how to make it display menus and the rest of the UI.
It was working normally yesterday.
I have tried turning all aspects of the situation off and on again. I haven't tried downloading RStudio again.
Edit: possibly relevant, it's running on a basic laptop that's over 10yo.
#RStats lazyweb: has anyone ever had to connect to an azure SQL database using microsoft entra authentication? I am searching for a solution and all I can find is MSFT espousing how good it is, and so far it feels like an automation nightmare! ping @hrbrmstr because you’ve usually connected to everything before I have.
Since I've recently quit my job, I've enabled github sponsors now. Without any expectations, let's see if I can make a living as an #rstats#rspatial#whateverspatial opensource developer 🤔
Thanks to inspiration by @kylebarron I am currently deep diving into #deckgl and #geoarrow to enhance the geo-spatial visualisation toolkit available in #rstats#rspatial...
