An #rstats mystery. Or maybe more #ggplot2. These histograms are generated with the exact same code and data. What has changed from R 4.5.1 to 4.5.2 that caused this change?

#rstats: Is there any ggplot2 extension (or trick with ggfx / grid) that can render lines with a hand-drawn or brush-stroke effect? I’m trying to get something that looks more organic than a standard geom_line().

Det er så dejligt at være her på skyen hvor der er en moden og ikke-toxisk reaktion på skuddrab, i modsætning til X hvor alle de onde er.

At Copenhagen University Library Datalab, we rely on sandpaper etc from @carpentries.carpentries.org‬.
However... Github is owned by Microsoft. And we are a bit... worried on relying on US owned platforms.
Anyone with experience re. transferring the CI/CD processes to eg Codeberg? #carpentries

Anyone know about a demo site supporting oauth api-calls? We would like to teach working with APIs in R - without having to have the students register for api-keys. #rstat

Tja. Men der er vel ikke nogen der er overrasket over mønsteret?

Exciting news! We’re thrilled to announce that tapir Yuna gave birth to a rare and endangered Malayan tapir calf Sunday night. The newborn, covered in distinctive white spots and stripes resembling a fuzzy walking watermelon, is only the second tapir born in our 120-year history.

Microsoft's own research confirms something that was already pretty obvious: relying on a text generating machine to come up with answers erodes critical thinking, and is a method favoured by those who never liked doing critical thinking in the first place

Is there any way of running both keras/tensorflow and spacyr in the same instance of R? I can get keras to run. I can get spacyr to run. Not both... #rstat #rstudio

If you've ever tried to version control a Jupyter Notebook and been frustrated by it, you might want to look into switching to Quarto. The files are just plain text, so they're totally readable for reviewing changes in git. 'Tis peak 👨🏻‍🍳💋

Messing with CSS and doing it project by project, and format by format, across bigger organizations has been a nightmare. I have been a huge flag carrier at Posit for brand.yml to work help solve it. Sara walks us through the first steps on the road.
