My favorite way to set up a new #rstats PKG:
# set up PKG infra
R> pkgKitten::kitten('pkg')
# add test infra
R> tinytest::puppy('pkg')
👍 Good to go!

Please don't remind me Peter.
Spent a few minutes yesterday looking at @krlmr's rprojroot package to find an easy way to get the git repo root, and realized today that I already wrote a zero-depends function to do just that. Hm.

Ah, time to eat some crow as a superb new women's world record was set today by Brigid Kosgei besting a 16 year old record by Paula Radcliffe by a smashing 81 seconds. And she looked great at mile 18 behind two pacers.
Still, Berlin owns the men's world records.
Sorry, @NYTimes: my Chicago home pride is very touched but this misses
a) last seven (!!) WRs set in Berlin (as flat, fewer turns)
b) the last time Chicago had (male) WR was 20 years ago

At the usual mile 18 water stop of the #chicagomarathon this pack of runner just came through - - great conditions today

This is pretty extraordinary, special conditions not withstanding. But as several models have predicted, it may be decades before we see two hours broken in a regular marathon race.

{fst} still beats {arrow}'s read/write_parquet after {arrow}'s upgrade to v0.15.0. Heck, even writing CSVs with {data.table}'s fread/write is faster for datasets with lots of rows. H/T to the #rdatatable contributors! And ❤️ the new ETA messages! @ApacheArrow @ApacheParquet
