Thanks to @hughagraham, here's a tree canopy height viz of O‘ahu, Hawai‘i two ways—canopy height only (left), over shaded relief (right). Which do you prefer?

Want a simple form of #MCMC analysis in #R well, I got you covered.

My #R #Package TidyDensity has a function called tidy_mcmc_sampling() that is pretty straight forward. It takes a raw vector and performs the calculation you give it over a default of 2k samples.

I hope you find it useful.

Ace write-up, by Ivan Krylov, of the non-vulnerability in #RStats that was inappropriately assigned a CVE by an attention-seeking vendor.

It's sad every CERT on the planet is regurgitating the hype.

ICYMI, desc::desc_normalize()

✅ Re-formats and re-orders fields in DESCRIPTION in a standard way.
✅Reorders the packages alphabetically.

Downside: you might be a little bit annoyed when you encounter DESCRIPTION files with fields in a different order. 🤪

PSA: The latest development build of #webR served at https://webr.r-wasm.org/latest/ is now running #RStats 4.4.0 🎉 This change will be included as part of the next release. Thanks @jeroenooms for helping get this up and running.

WebAssembly packages for R 4.4 are now being served by https://repo.r-wasm.org/. As before, you can browse the list of available Wasm packages by visiting that URL in your browser. Feel free to let me know if any major packages have been broken in the rebuild process.

To counter the stupid CVE thing with some positive #RStats content, folks really should use {stringi}. I think it's my fav R package.

%s$% from it is super fun to use…

I ended up having to burn time I honestly don't have this week to blog the stuff from the repo I made yesterday due to CERT and CISA making a big deal (https://www.cisa.gov/news-events/alerts/2024/05/01/certcc-reports-r-programming-language-vulnerability) out of expected behavior in #RStats due to a daft, hype-seeking vendor.

The profession that is cybersecurity is stupid broken.

I rly want (someone) to pwn an org with this CVE just to get it on KEV for sad posterity.

Has anyone ever written a "multi-facetted" package for CRAN?

For example, I have a package that uses the connections API.

I would like the full version available from GitHub and r-universe.

Through clever use of defines and 'if' statements etc, the CRAN version would exclude all forbidden code.

Could this exist in one pkg tarball? Or would the tarballs have to be different?

Are there CRAN-specific ENV vars that can be used to control the inclusion/exclusion of code?

We've actually added options for posting via the LinkedIn API as well 🎉 so now issues tagged "mastodon" go through one process and those tagged "linkedin" through another.
Is it too meta that we used the workflow the schedule this post?

Exciting news for R users! TidyDensity's latest update introduces util_chisquare_param_estimate(), leveraging MLE to estimate Chi-square distribution parameters like dof and ncp.

Generate a dataset with rchisq() and use util_chisquare_param_estimate() to analyze it, even without knowing the underlying distribution. Visualize results with tidy_combined_autoplot().

Try it in your next R project!

A new release of RStudio dropped this week!! A lot of bug fixes and hard work over the last few months. For me, the highlights are the improvements to the Git pane, the completion for ggplot2 aesthetics, help for S3 methods, help available when package loaded via devtools. I had the chance to contribute some (very) minor features. Special thanks to @kevinushey and @ronblum for their kindness and responsiveness! #rstats https://posit.co/blog/rstudio-2024-04-0-whats-new/

Bizarre #RStats discovery of the week: control-flow statements don't necessarily have to be within a set of braces, unless the code it at the 'top level'. Super weird.

Thanks to the great work by @klmr & @idavydov I've put together this repo: https://github.com/hrbrmstr/rdaradar that will help sanity check #RStats R data files in as safe a way as possible.

It's super basic and I'm rly tight on time this week, so issues (and, eventual PRs) are welcome.

You're still better off not trusting R data files not created by you.
