Hey gang, in my attempt to make the violin plots useful I am trying to overlay the true values of the simulation on the violins. Preferably tiny horizontal lines, but points are ok. This is as far as I got, since the true values have different names (b1,b3) as the simulation values (mrdoc2_b1_hat ...) I cannot overlay one on the other, how to go about it?

@lf_araujo

If you want to plot b1 and b1_hat in different geoms, don't use pivot_longer first. Just pass each column name into aes() for each geom e.g.

ggplot(data) +
geom_point(aes(x, y = b1)) +
geom_violin(aes(x, y = b1_hat))

More generally, I'd recommend looking at the ggdist package for these types of plots: https://mjskay.github.io/ggdist/articles/freq-uncertainty-vis.html

Thanks to Forecasting for Social Good for inviting me to deliver a workshop on "Forecasting with Generalised Additive Models (GAMs) in R" today! We talked about:

❓ What are GAMs?
❓ How do we fit GAMs in R?
❓ Model evaluation and forecasting
❓ When GAMs go wrong!

Do you create PDF documents using Quarto? Currently using LaTeX but curious about this new, fast and easy to use thing called Typst?

Read my latest blog post comparing using Quarto with LaTeX vs Typst to make pretty looking PDF documents! 👀

I'm struggling a bit with using metadata in quarto. I have a project that includes some custom metadata of the form

key1:
key2:
key3a: true
key3b: false

and so on. I would like to be able to overwrite some of these when rendering to modify which parts of the document are included in the output via
{.content-hidden unless-meta="key1.key2.key3a"}

I've tried to do that using something along the lines of

quarto render -M key1.key2.key3a:false, but that appears to have no effect.

Any advice on how to make this work, or how to achieve the same effect in a different way would be much appreciated.

@nrennie@fosstodon.org avatar

@pytheas

I've done something similar with parameters rather than metadata using:

r if (params$x) "::: {.content-hidden}"

optional content goes here

r if (params$x) ":::"

Not sure if it's the best approach but it works :)

Inspired and made possible by @nrennie, here's a typewriter elevation map of Japan. The characters to indicate increasing elevation are: 地, 低, 中, 高, and 峰.

Same here. I also still like the magrittr pipe since it can be used more than once on the RHS (useful for getting x and y coords for spatial functions at the same time!)
