I've learned a few acronyms to not use on this site 🤗

Same! I spent many nights in my early 20s dealing with these headaches. Now in 30s, on Pop!_OS, had 5-minutes to spare before work, came in real handy 👋🏻

Only on Bluesky

First year my main is a linux + nvidia laptop & I finally had to honor of purging & reinstalling a major GPU nvidia driver issue. 😬

I cannot figure this stuff out on my own at all.

While we critic everyday AI code, LLMs walked me through the whole process of the fix which was awesome.

Appreciate you sharing the info, a tid bit of history I did not know & something to look up

I'm using polars + altair & trying to keep things very simple. A bit uncomfortable but it's going. .

I was stuck joining a nanosecond datetime to a microsecond datetime for awhile which was a bit sad.

Honored to have my code in here

This is the second year my team has put together an internal facing Advent Of Code!!

It is a data wrangling & tabular focused AOC.

The twist, this year my submissions will be in Python instead of R 🐍

qwen3-vl was just released and on ollama. I always have good results with qwen2.5vl.

Let me know if you have an example PDF & I can try adding an OCR vignette to kuzco 🦙

It's tomorrow!

GitHub - frankiethull/tense: tense: LLM semantic sequence prediction for ordered data tense: LLM semantic sequence prediction for ordered data - frankiethull/tense

Tested a few new models for R packages & some small models on predicting numbers as lexicon tokens.

Gemini 3 Pro is a really good R programmer. Sonar is great for debugging, & gpt-oss is good at being a tense model. Ran Opus & Gemini side-by-side but preferred Gemini.

I checked a couple sites, we're in line with 2007-2008 which was considered 'abnormally dry' years.

Quarto listing for talks and workshops

I spent a bit of time this weekend updating my #Quarto listing for talks and workshops 🤗

Check it out here: ivelasq.rbind.io/talk

Many thanks to Meghan Hall for sharing the template and CSS code! 💜

This is next week! A fun discussion about ggpal2 & chores.

I think the coolest part is you should leave understanding how to create your own chore with little to no code.

If you're new to AI or want a low-barrier way to create an assistant with R, chores is a great place to start.

👀 github.com/bluegreen-la...

📣🚨 Very much looking forward to hearing from @frankiethull.bsky.social about the intersection of coded data viz and AI assistants! 👀🚀

Join us Tuesday Dec 2nd, at 3pm Eastern to hear about {ggpal2}, a {chores} extension. #ggplot2 #ai #chores

Minard's famous illustration of the fate of Napoleon's Grand Armee in the 1815 March on Moscow. A flow map showing the army size shrinking across the map, much more on the retreat, shown in black

#TodayinHistory #dataviz #OTD 📊
📅Nov 20, 1869 Charles Joseph Minard published his iconic flow map graphic of Napoleon's March on Moscow.

Some called it best graphic ever produced, but EJ Marey put it best:
"Defies the pen of the historian in its brutal eloquence"
No known portrait of CJ, only .sig

I like both of these!

Exactly, ASI solves latency

I thought you wore them to performative grindcore shows as well

ASI will live at moon base
