A big *Thank You!* to @SzilardPafka for coming to STAT 447 on Friday for a wonderful guest lecture on Gradient Boosting Machines (along with 'life in data science' tips). Video link below, background and slides at stat447.com/guest_lectures/. #rstats

Correct in principle and for 'standard' programming languages with two boolean values.
But because #rstats has three (!!) you are actually better of using either one of
isTRUE()
isFALSE()
which are also instructive to look at in source (one liners, just hit RETURN)

Beides :) Aber #rstats twitter passiert dann doch zumeist auf Englisch so dass Du eventuell lieber umschalten solltest.

Thanks to @eddelbuettel for presenting r2u at #YEGRUG yesterday!
Check out slides and video recording from the event, especially the follow up discussion that couched on important topics, such as reproducibility and package management with #rstats

Had lots of fun talking to the (Edmonton) YEGRUG about #r2u earlier tonight, including a live demo installing #tidyverse, #brms and #Seurat in one command leading to about 180 binaries installed -- in about 30 seconds. Gotta love #r2u.

We will be getting into the meaning of "meaningful" here soon but I take those 888 bytes and counter with 488. No ERROR, WARNING, or NOTE with `R CMD check --as-cran` (using `rcmdcheck::rcmdcheck` via a convenience wrapper from `littler`):

Yes indeed. Beauty of small group meetings. Gave the talk with 24 hours notice as @pdalgd looked at me and said "you'll talk about tomorrow, right?".

I was fortunate to meet him in person, at the first or second R conference I went to about twenty years ago---and he was still well enough to travel. In person he is very kind, very quiet and rather gentle. A giant. And he does all this sounds with severely impacted sight.

Congratulations on a new release!
The @Debian package has been updated (and @Ubuntu focal + jammy builds are in my PPA). QuantLib-SWIG to follow once I can rely on the library it its build.
#QuantLib 1.28 was released today. Thanks to all contributors!
