yes, many people on Bluesky do respond incredibly aggressively to any non-negative mention of AI.

if that upsets you, while I get it, there are people responsible for *why* so many Bluesky users are utterly enraged at AI, and they are not in fact those Bluesky users.

I'm excited to share a new version of the Air formatter for #rstats, with support for tabular formatting! Super useful with `tibble::tribble()` calls or `data.table::fcase()`.

It's currently experimental as we're looking to get feedback on the feature, so please let us know what you think.

make sure your turn off mobile data while outside unless absolutely necessary and leave your phones at home during protests (or at minimum, turn mobile data off & airplane mode on)

Woman sits in car for 14 hours to get food during New Birth Baptist church food giveaway More than 2,000 people waited in their cars in line Saturday morning in order to receive food.

Some people waited in line up for 14 hours to receive a food box from a church giveaway.

500 people volunteered to help and they still ran out of food.

Remember for every one person a food bank feeds, SNAP feeds 9.

By turning off food assistance the regime is starving Americans.
