Very nice and clear talk indeed. But credit where credit is due: AFAIK that line actually comes from @joshua_ulrich (and is listed at the top of tinyverse.org)

Following up on his 'Fifth Risk', I now read 'The Premonition' by Michael Lewis. The books make a good pair, but the latter one is even more frustrating in detailing just how we failed to respond (in time, and at scale) this thread. And yet we're still in this battle.

Finally read this, cover to cover, in a day, a few years after it came out. Michael Lewis has an unparallel ability to weave stories together. This collection of three essays has a really strong common theme of trust in science, public service and the power of data. Recommended.

"Some praise for r-ci"
"We've been running this for 6 months on Azure - and it has performed without any hiccup whatsoever [...] a valuable alternative for people who want a no-frills R CI setup which relies mostly on Base R!"

I agree, and had to look it up as I couldn't remember. (Upper chamber also matters relatively less. Key feature is still the 1/2 first-past-the-post and 1/2 proportional rep (plus 5% cutiff) in the lower chamber which is good.) Then again I've been gone some time now...

Good point but a little mellowed by the fact that the numbers of votes in the Bundesrat are still proportional-ish to state size. But yes, not having Bremen and Hamburg swallowed by, say, Lower Saxony is a "feature" for the SPD or Greeens.

The `tinytest` package actually has most excellent "skipping" facilities thanks to `exit_file()`, and its wise design decision to have all test files being #RStats scripts. So whatever is computable in an R script can be a condition to skip -- which I use aplenty in my packages.

Through a recent random act of kindness, @petersagal introduced me to a local bagel shop's delights. I now have an additional stroopwaffle problem from picking up a half dozen bagels.

And two very smooth and fast automated #RStats package admissions at CRAN which works so well for normal packages with moderate reverse-dependencies. So allow me to add another #ThankYouCRAN for two smooth admissions this week. (RcppGSL needed an URL update I had forgotten...)

Interested in #LiDAR data management for serverless access from #rstats, #python, #sql (and more) interfaces binding to the (open source) core library? And/or how @tiledb also adds a cloud management and sharing layer? So come to next week's webinar!
