Be well. Be kind. Pay it forward. Sounds trite but amazing what a kind gesture or word can mean to someone’s entire day. Saying from someone who knows. Sometimes it is something as small as a smile instead of a snarky remark that can shift the course of an entire day. 🌹

The CRAN Policy Watch account is demi-dead as I cannot have the cronjob post but his first change in just about a year is significant enough to do it manually: a new link to a new 'Using Rust in CRAN Packages' document.

There are no more borders in the European Union.
However, you will always know where the Netherlands begins.

How it started (Baltimore, 2022)
How it is going (Oak Park, 2023)
Many thanks to @MattDEisenberg for giving @julia_edd an academic home at @bsph_hpm once she graduated @CornellBPP. I will now continue riff on her being unemployed (as of today). Temporarily at least.

Rumours that @IARC_WHO are set to declare #Aspartame as "possibly carcinogenic" are causing concern. It's important to know that IARC classifications use highly coded language. In this thread I will decode this language and explain what it means.

Quick little Wednesday experiment of 'baked' potato + zuchini + carrot latkes with a side of lax and creme fraiche / sour cream by @julia_edd ('back home' for a few weeks) and me. Worked out ok under the constraints of vegetarian weekdays. Pic is from her BeReal stream.

R 4.3.1 was released on Friday as scheduled, arrived in Debian and rocker/r-base on Friday, is now in Docker as r-base too (it was a long weekend...) and should be an Ubuntu backport at CRAN thanks to @marutterstat very soon too. Enjoy the new release! #rstats
