Sweet. Nice timing: I hadn't set up a `pkg-fonts-*` for my own use (but also usable on any @Debian/@Ubuntu box) since (IIRC) the jetbrains mono one (which was later replaced by a distro one). Have a few more pkg-fonts-* at @github.

Introducing Intel One Mono, an expressive monospaced font family that we designed for @intel with clarity, legibility, & the needs of developers in mind.
Intel One Mono is available under an SIL Open Font License. Download the fonts & use them for free: github.com/intel/intel-one-m…

In case someone reading happens to have a "spare" bsky invitation and does not know what to do with it, I would gladly take it (and merrily commit to paying it forward sharing invites which, as I understand it, are given to existing users).

2/3) "Online examples and documentation become obsolete real fast"
3/3) "deprecated and superseded functions can be hard to keep track of"
This is one reason I say, "choose your dependencies carefully" and "dependencies are an invitation for others to break your code."

I told someone I didn't use a popular library 5+ years ago because, "I don't want to keep up with the furious rate of change"
I stumbled on some comments that suggest that's still true today.
1/3) "it's big and functions change too often for the internet to keep up with"

As I threatened to do earlier, I wrote about the structure of BlueSky & implications for content moderation, recommender systems, monetization & its future. It starts with Jack. Everyone at Twitter--esp Jack--has known this could replace Twitter.

Congratulations on the launch of #CZCellxGene Discover Census. We are honored to be collaborators with the @cziscience on TileDB-SOMA for cross-language, cloud-native access to this groundbreaking dataset. tiledb.com/blog/tiledb-launc…
Census data and APIs are built around TileDB-SOMA from @tiledb, allowing for:
*cloud-optimized storage
*low-latency access for larger-than-memory data slices querying + filtering under lazy evaluation
*transformers to pandas, numpy, pyarrow, anndata, Seurat and R base objects

Random idea:
Maybe we should let international students stay here after they graduate from American universities with advanced STEM degrees.

Whoops: that should of course have been 'SingleCellExperiment`. See `fortunes::fortune(112)`.
To make up, here is a link to gif showing the complete installation of `SingleCellExperiment` and `Seurat` in thirty seconds with all dependencies:

Congratulation -- and #r2u (and its currently 240+ file subset) has been converted to @BioConductor release 3.17 with #Rstats 4.3.0.
E.g. can install SingeCellExperiment and Seurat via one `install.packages()` to get 151 binaries in 30 seconds. Simple. Fast. Reliable.
Bioconductor Release 3.17 is now available. See full release announcement at bioconductor.org/news/bioc_3… @Rstats @Bioconductor

If you are a @Wilco fan (and really, who isn't?) then these eight minutes of @NelsCline and Derek Trucks (@DerekAndSusan) shredding "Impossible Germany" are going to be the best eight minutes of your day.

Excellent and thank you!
The @Debian package has been update, convenience @Ubuntu builds for 20.04 and 22.04 are in my PPA, the #RockerProject r-base container has been updated, and a PR made as usual from it for the official @Docker #Rstats container.
#rstats R version 4.3.0 "Already Tomorrow" (source version) has been released. (You can find it in cran.r-project.org/src/base/…, or wait for CRAN to be updated.)
