🎅I feel like Christmas is a great time to praise the tools freely available to all #rstats users. This year I chose 4 of my favorites for efficiency and reproducibility in a post with a few of their features🔗jozef.io/r920-christmas-prai…
It is *absurd* how good @Ubuntu upgrades have gotten.
Even as a @Debian dev I had @Ubuntu on laptop(s) for maybe 13 of the 15 years. Bi-annual upgrades. Going to 19.10 right now: not a single prompt or question (on a ~3 year old laptop with five or six upgrades).
Rocking.
That is in response / as a follow-up to @df7cb showing the same in #postgresql but I couldn't reply-tweet with a screenshot ... Also no space for the #rdatatable tag the tweet really needed too.
#TIL 13ths are more often Fridays than other weekdays:
select extract(dow from d), count(*) from generate_series(date 'today' - interval '400 years', date 'today' + interval '400 years', interval '1 day') as g(d) where extract(day from d) = 13 group by 1 order by 1;
@PostgreSQL
For code with, say, Rcpp.h and/or Boost headers (which really are aggregated include statements) it wants to break things up into smaller more concise statements---just as stated---so you may encounter a lot of output.
TIL: 'include-what-you-use' is also only an 'apt-get install iwyu' away
Then a simple 'make -k CXX=iwyu' reports superfluous and missing #include statements in your (clang-compilable) codebase. Nice one!

And the @Debian (source) package(s) have been updated, binaries to follow.
There will also be an updated Docker container via my RQuantLib repo, and I will likely build Ubuntu 19.04 packages via my PPA.
Exciting announcement for the few of us who write in C for R!
@LukeTierney4 announced that R-devel will soon use reference counting instead of 'NAMED' to determine when object will be garbage collected. This should make it in to R-4.0.0!
