A variant of the 'mute people with nc hashtags posts among n posts using term' function by @csgillespie is now in my `dang` package in a #tinyverse form requiring only #rdatatable. To use it, make sure your Twitter token can read+write. Mine was still on read-only... #rstats

Could do with love and updates especially as vowpalwabbit.org is alive and kicking. Spare time is the usual scarce resource though. Any volunteers know where to file issues :) #rstats #rcpp #vowpalwabbit

Starting to mute anyone on #rstats who uses more than five hashtags. Simple, but actually very effective

With COVID-19, there’s a lot to worry about. But you shouldn’t have to worry about how you’re going to vote safely. @HeadCountOrg created a new resource on how to vote by mail in your state. Share with your friends and family. Vote safely. Info: bit.ly/VoteFromHome

Bumped into @petersagal during a neighborhood five miler and will join him in entering the virtual @nycmarathon on @strava from Oct 17 to Nov 1. These days 26.2 is more than my normal weekly mileage but given two weeks this should work. #NYRRVolvoVirtualRacing #TCSNYCMarathon

Open Source can be so amazeballs. Two hours after tweeting the awesome upstream author @gabi_melman gave me two pointers for fixes in the initial issue ticket github.com/eddelbuettel/rcpp… and we're golden. "Release early, release often". And talk to people who know their code.

When you finally push something to a public repo that you had on your drive for years, and the upstream author notices and stars it the same day.... #rstats #rcpp #cplusplus #spdlog /cc @gabi_melman

Word. I looked into Hugo when @kjhealy blogged about it "way back when". And I prefer to do e.g. my course site stat430.com in "straight hugo" with a little R etc mostly for code highlighting. Simpler is sometimes better. Served straight from gh pages. too
