Just did something I had not done in a looong time and watched "linear" (non-sports) tv: the @RonCarterBass movie just premiered on @pbs -- and it was really good. Recommended to catch on streaming soon.

Have this week discovered the wonders of r2u (CRAN as Ubuntu Binaries) by @eddelbuettel. Takes away all the pain of installing R packages on Ubuntu by integrating with apt. Incredibly fast and all OS dependencies automatically taken care of. A revelation! eddelbuettel.github.io/r2u/
Currently home-alone (as "my wife left me" for a sabbatical month at Berkeley, plus some travel before and after) so I
✔️cooked a decent dinner sauce and froze half of it
✔️varying other half day by day: linguini y'day, rigatoni today, penne tomorrow 😀

More #r2u in action: this time it fits into overall system management. During a daily `apt` update via `wajig` we see ten upgrades, seven new (all new CRAN packages). The update gets us new Ubuntu packages, new RStudio (via my PPA) plus one CRAN update - in one command. #rstats
Thrilled to have learned hat I will get to talk about #r2u at the upcoming Ontario Statistical Software Conference in Toronto! Very much looking forward to it, and now debating whether to be 'in person' or merely virtual... Come join me, and register at the link below. #rstats
A sneak peek at our preliminary speaker lineup for our first annual Statistical Software Conference.
This is a one-day conference bringing together academic and industry participants to share best practices on developing statistical software.

Thrilled to be speaking about #r2u to the #YEGRUG. This should also leave time for demos of the (simple!) setup and its use. I will present remotely (as I have attended remotely) so feel free to join the group. #rstats
