This looks very useful and interesting -- but could do with some R folks!

Yep -- there is little "data science" but a whole lot of data engineering. Or more prosaically: "data plumbing". nitter.vloup.ch/gjreda/status/63…

Thanks for the littler plug -- 'r' - starts faster - loads methods package - has argv[] - is easier to type :)

Looks like someone needs to wrap its C++ guts with Rcpp :) #rstats #rcpp

This. A hundred times. I just (accidentally) revisited one of the dumbest threads ever: goo.gl/jBVgyu
I might have to mute all tweets that tag both #rstats and #python. Language wars are boring.
