@drewconway Nice, but what is the functional form for total KWh increases over time? Still upward sloping as I recall.

@drewconway @hadleywickham @johnmyleswhite : @statalgo, Jeff and I worked on a simpler heuristic: sum(isPackageByHadley()). Max score wins.

A new release of Rcpp is now on CRAN, in Debian and my site, more at goo.gl/48Fuk #rstats
zoo has several vignettes, why don't you read them to construct a relevant comparison? ♻ @wesmckinn: @eddelbuettel eh, same difference =)

POSIXct is a double (fractional secs since epoch) ♻ @wesmckinn: @eddelbuettel Bet you I take zoo to the cleaners with an integer index

Plus beer + sausages! ♻ @ezraklein: "Two things in German psyche that are important: monetary stability, and soccer." n.pr/pAuXYg
Which is why I need procmail for Twitter! ♻ @gappy3000 @eddelbuettel And since when I can't bitch about #rstats? That's 50% of my tweets!
1) Make it reproducible 2) Use a current version of R 3) Post to the proper forum #ThisAintRDevel@gappy3000: #rstats #seriousbug
Can you ask on rcpp-devel? #140CharsReallySuck ♻ @gaygoygourmet: Anyone used #Rcpp .so calling *another* .so via dlopen? [@eddelbuettel]
Same pattern as html, its just one diretory below ♻ @elijahwright I can fix that - gimmie a URL to a feed that only produces those? :)
Replying to @elijahwright

He runs a feed aggregator, not unlike inside-R ♻ @revodavid: @eddelbuettel I'd assumed it was the same thing with a new URL and template.
Discuss with @elijahwright, I just supply berries ♻ @hadleywickham: @eddelbuettel planetr.stderr.org is a swamped by the cranberries feed
