We're always looking for ways to make our #shiny apps more responsive. And it always comes down how to store and query data. We've given @tiledb a run and the results are very promising spoiler: ~0.4 secs to query & return the data from S3 resources.symbolix.com.au/20… #rstats

Public data, public health -- so below is some public code too. The @rdatatable and #ggplot2 combination makes it a breeze. #rstats for the win

A quick thank you to the @nytimes data team for maintaining a data repo I have used daily for 15 months to look at and visualize data for my county. Now below 100 new cases (and 200 on a 7-day avg) for the 1st time since March of last year--and IL reopens fully this week. #rstats

Thanks to the @gretl_stats team to invite me to the Gretl 2021 Conference to talk a little about the now 21 years (!!) of maintaining Gretl inside @Debian. The slides, with some asides on @Docker / #RockerProject and (recent) @obshq comments are now on my site.

My causal inference textbook The Effect has done an editing round and is now available in Bookdown form! It's also at its own easy-to-remember URL at theeffectbook.net Check it out! The Bookdown version will remain up even after the published version is out.
Today I finally get to share the full draft of my new book The Effect. I think it turned out really well. The Effect offers a highly accessible and intuitive approach to research design and causal inference with observational data. Find it here: nickchk.com/causalitybook.ht…

If you find the UNC Board of Trustees’ decision to deny @nhannahjones tenure as abhorrent as I do, consider supporting Nikole by preordering a copy of the 1619 book, which comes out this fall. It’s an expanded and enhanced version of the magazine issue. 1619books.com
