and user. I love data visualization and studying the perception of data visualization. I use 's , , , and , among other tools.

I'm a professor at an R1 university in the US. Opinions are my own - my uni isn't nearly with it enough to have a fediverse presence.

I'm actually shocked the TX legislature is doing anything remotely useful instead of fighting culture war battles. Good for them.

@TechyDad I'm more conflicted by tools that allow you to mimic e.g. Leonardo DiCaprio's voice, or a specific influencer's voice. That seems to be crossing a line, where having some sort of voice mixer that doesn't emulate a specific person's voice would not be a problem for me. I would love to add audio to my self-published textbook to make it more accessible to students, but the content changes too often for me to have someone narrate it - I'd need to automate the audiobook generation and just set that to update on a specific interval for it to actually work. In my use case, I don't think I'd ever get around to having a human actually do the work, so I don't feel like I'm replacing anyone's job.

Biden’s Supreme Court Nom Sides With Conservatives in Striking Down Gun Crime Provision - Newzasa (newzasa.com)

The Biden administration has been stung again with another unanimous ruling from the U.S. Supreme Court, which of course, included his nominee and the court’s newest member, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson. In a 9-0 ruling, the justices found that some individuals previously convicted of gun crimes may receive reduced prison...

@dawee88 Any time it's a 9-0 decision, it's not really about siding with conservatives or liberals.

@RyanHeffronPhoto Yeah, it seems like scientists could literally be setting themselves on fire trying to get peoples' attention and policymakers would not act. This isn't a scicomm issue, this is a political problem - politicians don't want to solve problems that will cause short-term pain for long-term (generational) gain. There's no motivation to solve problems that won't resolve before the next election cycle.

Anyone know of an R connection to Pinecone?

@smach I love that APIs are including R code examples! Never tried pinecone, but it looks very cool.
