Dear @Bloomberg@BW : I tried to purchase this week's issue w/ @matt_levine 's 40k word treatise on crypto. Only to find that a neither a decently-stocked grocery store nor an equally-well stocked bookstore have it. I live in near-suburb of a global metropole. Can you help?
Congratulations!! As usual we created the
- official @Debian r-base package
- PPA builds for @Ubuntu 20.04, 22.04
- rocker/r-base:{4.2.2,latest} containers
- official @Docker r-base container (PR pending)
providing four ways to enjoy #Rstats 4.2.2 pre-made
#rstats 4.2.2 "Innocent and Trusting" (source version) has been released. (The truly impatient can find it in cran.r-project.org/src/base/…, others need to wait for CRAN to update)
Thanks to @eddelbuettel for presenting r2u at #YEGRUG yesterday!
Check out slides and video recording from the event, especially the follow up discussion that couched on important topics, such as reproducibility and package management with #rstatsyegrug.github.io/meetups/202…
Had lots of fun talking to the (Edmonton) YEGRUG about #r2u earlier tonight, including a live demo installing #tidyverse, #brms and #Seurat in one command leading to about 180 binaries installed -- in about 30 seconds. Gotta love #r2u.
Slides are at dirk.eddelbuettel.com/presen…
Join the Edmonton R User Group - YEGRUG at their meetup on Oct 27! Dirk Eddelbuettel @eddelbuettel, maintainer of Rcpp and co-founder of the Rocker project, will be presenting on the r2u project. Sign up! ➡️ meetup.com/edmonton-r-user-g…#rstats#rprogramming
Because he gets no ♥️ here: BDR is a saint.
Got a nice and quiet email pointing out one last use of sprintf in #Rcpp (we generally use snprintf; this case was safe) as macOS 13 deprecates it. I already fixed in a branch, now testing. He is so tireless, and so helpful. #rstats
Congratulations on a new release!
The @Debian package has been updated (and @Ubuntu focal + jammy builds are in my PPA). QuantLib-SWIG to follow once I can rely on the library it its build.
Solving “What came first the chicken or the egg?” with #RStats.
whatcamefirst <- c("🥚","🐔" )
sort(whatcamefirst, decreasing = FALSE)
# > [1] "🐔" "🥚"
The answer is Chicken :) Mystery solved, thank you R #RStats
