New Post: An Ode to Stable Interfaces, and Praise To Base R and R Core In which I run code I posted fourteen years ago: it works unaltered. That should be cherished, celebrated--and encouraged. We need more examples like this. dirk.eddelbuettel.com/blog/2… #rstats #reproducibility

What an absolute legend. May he rest in peace. Ran within sight of him during one or two of my Boston (where everybody is pace-sorted), and he was of course not only a generation older than me, but pushing his son in the runner-chair. Made it look effortless. Beyond impressive.

Thread with details on the outstanding Covid19 mortality risk estimator by @TheEconomist. And reposting (wrt to tweet from Thu) now with correct credit to @XGBoostProject for the model deployed. So read this thread, the article and background piece and the web app. #rstats

To clarify on the #rstats sampling profiler by @unconj1: - xrprof is now in @Debian unstable: if you run that (or testing w/ unstable pinned) do `apt install xrprof` - xrprof is now in @Ubuntu hirsute so 21.04 should have it - in the meantime and for 20.04/20.10, my PPA has it:
Thanks to quick work from @eddelbuettel, my sampling profiler for #rstats is now part of Debian Unstable 🎉. Soon you will be able to $ apt-get install xrprof buildd.debian.org/status/pac…
