"Some praise for r-ci"
"We've been running this for 6 months on Azure - and it has performed without any hiccup whatsoever [...] a valuable alternative for people who want a no-frills R CI setup which relies mostly on Base R!"

Big thank you to the whole @_useRconf team for a great #useR2021!
I remember when the Zurich team had to decide whether to go hybrid (ie w/ 2 "classes" of participants) or fully online to turn it into the most international, diverse, and inclusive useR! ever.
And WOW they did!

.@aaronwolen & @eddelbuettel are at #useR2021 and will present a #rstats @TileDB tutorial, covering package basics to examples for genomics, time-series & LiDAR. Join at 4:45pm EDT (track 3) to see how TileDB arrays make data management universal for R dataframes, matrices & more

Through a recent random act of kindness, @petersagal introduced me to a local bagel shop's delights. I now have an additional stroopwaffle problem from picking up a half dozen bagels.

And two very smooth and fast automated #RStats package admissions at CRAN which works so well for normal packages with moderate reverse-dependencies. So allow me to add another #ThankYouCRAN for two smooth admissions this week. (RcppGSL needed an URL update I had forgotten...)

Interested in #LiDAR data management for serverless access from #rstats, #python, #sql (and more) interfaces binding to the (open source) core library? And/or how @tiledb also adds a cloud management and sharing layer? So come to next week's webinar!

Thanks @ajggeoger & @map_andrew for having us on the @eoscenefrom podcast, where we discussed how a universal database based on dense & sparse multi-dimensional arrays can unify all geospatial data. scenefromabove.podbean.com/e…

@tiledb is looking very promising for our #rspatial shiny apps.
Looking forward to giving it a proper kicking & testing its limits!
#rstats
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

And here is a thread about it from the @nytimes:
a team of one hundred to support the coronavirus case data collection and analysis. And, as of today, a truly well deserved Pulitzer Prize for Public Service!! Sincere congratulations!
You may have seen The NYT’s coronavirus case map. It's part of a sprawling data effort that involved over 100 journalists. We learned today our work was part of an entry that received the Pulitzer Prize for Public Service. Here’s how the project came to be.

Thanks to @eddelbuettel for showing us the ropes and developing the #rstats {tileDB} library.
You can get hands-on experiece at his useR tutorial -
Come to our @tiledb #rstats tutorial where @aaronwolen and I may show how to put a 194 million rows "flights" csv file (85 gb uncompr.) into a single TileDB (sparse) array (indexed by flight date, carrier, origin and destination) you can read / write to / from S3 / GCS / Azure.
