Congratulations on the new release! The @Debian package for 1.26 has been uploaded, and @Ubuntu builds for 20.04 and 21.10 are at my PPA. And #RQuantLib for #RStats builds unchanged.

Used it for 4 terms of STAT 447 Data Science Programming Methods at Illinois in campus-wide pilot. Good (no setup, everybody has access, generally works well) and bad (new projects needs new git setup, git integration clunky, single point of failure, fees) sides but overall good.

We’re back to mandatory N95s in the hospital and y’all out here literally singing about being able to cough on each other on planes. I’m so goddamn tired.

Singing the praises of the @marutterstat PPA and of `bspm` by @enchufa: Installing `brms` by @paulbuerkner on @Ubuntu 20.04 from binaries in *one* shell -- or #RStats -- command.

Found on the wasteland that is L1nked1n: a "proposal" for a hyperloop network. Can I smoke what the graphic artist smoked? Minneapolis between Chicago and Detroit? Berlin south of Hannover? From Houston to Dallas via Mexico City? Toulouse to Barcelona via Madrid? Yelp.

The pub-sub monitoring with Redis and #RStats just got *so much* better thanks to an assist by (apparently twitterless) Paul Murrell who suggested `dev.hold()` and `dev.flush()` when I asked him about 'flicker'. Now butter-smooth double-buffering (cf github repo).
Mesmerizing.

The vignette of package `parallel` (which comes with R) is underappreciated and a really solid intro: `browseVignettes("parallel")`.
My STAT 447 course (stat447.com) covers it as well in one lecture, last fall's version is here: uofi.app.box.com/s/r781z067f…

As I recall, @JennyBryan made a pretty compelling case for this pattern of 'default first, if to modify' at useR! in Brisbane. Always having a default value is good.
And sometimes the crispness of
foo <- if (cond) value else othervalue
is nice too in #Rstats. Use either :)
