Giving the AI of {gtsummary} by @ddsjoberg.bsky.social a try! Starting with AI generated study guide of this package - let's see how much it helps!

Do we even still need static cheatsheet anymore?

How do we make AI with R package vignette, any good tutorials?

Supported by my fellowship from the Software Sustainability Institute, this year the rainbowR committee (with the amazing @oberman.bsky.social, @ddsjoberg.bsky.social and @statsrhian.bsky.social) has been working hard to nurture rainbowR and make the community sustainable for the long-term.

It's free, but there was an application process to be accepted to their open-source program. Otherwise, you're 100% correct, it would be paid.

Check out the release of {gtsummary} v2.50.

My favorite feature is the AI chatbot on the homepage. It does a fantastic job of answering simple and complex questions about the package. (RAG model powered by kapa.ai) 🤖

happy august! I did a little data visualization project this week trying to see what genres of books I've read and liked the most so far in 2025. (if you, like me, are a big fan of scifi + fantasy + dark academia, please give me book recs!)

I don't know how many Canadian leftists chose to vote strategically, and held their nose and voted for the Liberal party, but if you did, sincerely, from the bottom of my heart, thank you.

Canada will remain a safe, welcoming place for our trans friends and family.

Remembering what I did this week with LLMs – Garrick Aden-Buie Using the GitHub API and {ellmer} to remember what I did this week.

LLMs + #RStats are a powerful combo. I wrote a little post about using R to curate GitHub data and {ellmer} to program with LLMs to automate one of my least favorite tasks: remembering what I did this week.

Sometimes when building a minimal reprex for a bug, you discover that you were the bug all along. I assume this is what Kafka was on about.

The Bluesky muted words and tags interface with "x.com" muted forever in text & tags (excluding users you follow)

Don't want to see links to X on here? Go to Settings > Moderation > Muted words & tags and add "x.com" to mute forever. You can mute the word everywhere or choose to exclude posts from people you follow.

The joy of finding out about #Rstats packages after(!) doing all the hard work manually. 82 messy lines of code vs. 8 simple lines. #phdlife

Thanks @ddsjoberg.bsky.social and gtsummary team!

Here is my opinion on important #rstats accounts to follow.

It is very much a curated list by me, and reflects my own opinion. I will be adding to it as I discover more folks i think should be on the list.

The new version of gtsummary is heading to CRAN this week.

Please take a moment to test the dev package before the BIG release.
