We’re back to mandatory N95s in the hospital and y’all out here literally singing about being able to cough on each other on planes. I’m so goddamn tired.

Singing the praises of the @marutterstat PPA and of `bspm` by @enchufa: Installing `brms` by @paulbuerkner on @Ubuntu 20.04 from binaries in *one* shell -- or #RStats -- command.

Found on the wasteland that is L1nked1n: a "proposal" for a hyperloop network. Can I smoke what the graphic artist smoked? Minneapolis between Chicago and Detroit? Berlin south of Hannover? From Houston to Dallas via Mexico City? Toulouse to Barcelona via Madrid? Yelp.

The pub-sub monitoring with Redis and #RStats just got *so much* better thanks to an assist by (apparently twitterless) Paul Murrell who suggested `dev.hold()` and `dev.flush()` when I asked him about 'flicker'. Now butter-smooth double-buffering (cf github repo).
Mesmerizing.

Congrats to @dselivanov_ et al for RestRserve release 1.0: an awesome package scaling #Rstats to thousands of concurrent REST requests per second (think `plumbr` on steroids). My 15s of fame here are from having suggested use of Rserve years ago...

Endorse! This sounds a lot like the first four weeks of my STAT 447 (cf stat447.com) course! If someone wanted get in touch to offer this as a day-long workshop my arm could likely be twisted.
The rest of Mike's thread is good too, as usual 😉
I'm not yet qualified to give advice on the job market, but if you're an academic hoping to hit the ground running as a data scientist in industry, here are some potentially useful tips:
‣ Round out your programming skills–be okay or comfortable with git, bash, SQL.
