Spent the past few days playing around with #positron for the first time, and I really enjoyed it (dare I say, it may quickly become my go-to IDE?). Decided to give our Quarto website tutorial a makeover with new instructions for doing so using Positron:

We get this question a lot, and it can be difficult to answer. We’d love to hear your thoughts and strategies!
📣 Data scientists, analysts, folks who write code: we want to hear from you! 📣

We're brainstorming resources on how to keep up with the ever-evolving R ecosystem.
✨ What strategies do you use to keep code/software up to date?
🌱 How do you find out what's new in R/your fave lang?

Let us know! ⬇️

Hello Bluesky, and thanks @emilyriederer.bsky.social for nudging us LinkedIn stragglers to join the party ☺️

Does anyone have a favorite data science starter pack? I’d love to encourage my students find their way here too. I’m open to any suggestions on lowering the barrier to entry!
