@PyroNeurosis@kim_harding map of traffic fatalities is scary--an unfortunate consequence of our car-centric society. Here is a map of percent of uninsured adults by state...looks kind of similar...
@hrbrmstr@klmr@idavydov@AlexandreSieira Holy cow. So if I read this correctly, I could potentially pull down an .rda file and the exploit would go undetected by any antivirus and be activated upon a call to read_rds()?
This R rant by @hendrikerz has got quite some attention on the bird site. The R community over here might have missed it due to the missing #RStats tag.
I don‘t agree with much, but some points are worth for discussion / improvement.
@TimTeaFan@hendrikerz I do statistical analysis and data visualization in R (and automated reporting in Quarto) so maybe I'm one of those users for whom R works well for many tasks. (And Alt+Arrow works too!)
@defuneste I think it is important to ask management to explain their rationale, for sexism in the workplace needs to be addressed. Something like, "I've noticed that only men are going to be supported to attend the conference, and why is that?" If only men are allowed professional development opportunities, then how does this support gender equity in the workplace? #rstats#Sexism
@defuneste It's good to be aware of that and the potential barriers. I remember going with my spouse to some conferences when we had our newborn. My job was to bring her our baby so she could breastfeed between sessions. I was lucky to be able to do that. Often conferences do not have have lactation rooms or childcare...
Q for #rstats#quarto users in #vscode - am I right that there is no way to see the final appearance of a plot other than rendering the document? There is no preview - other than in rstudio - which gives an accurate representation? The vsc plot window follows its own dimension (distorts proportions).
Love vs code but re-rendering the whole doc for each plot iteration feels quite cumbersome. Tagging the mighty @andrew since I think there was a related discussion on GH which I can't find..🙏🙏👏👏
@zoowalk@andrew Actually, the in-line preview can be quite different when show_text(enable=TRUE) is set. Then I do need to render the document to see the final plot. #rstats#quarto
@sam@SRLevine@ascentale@scottsthoughts My Banjo Brothers was much cheaper, but if I needed to haul large loads in the rain, I might look at these Arkels more closely. (I have a smaller Bontrager that I would put my laptop in if it was raining.) #BikeNite
