This package has data that can be used instead of nycflights13 to teach joins, and also to look at temporal trends and draw maps. It has to coolest hexsticker vahdatjavad.github.io/ecotourism/ and cute creatures: mantarays, gouldian finches, glow worms and orchids

Screenshot of an email announcement on the GDAL-dev mailing list. The subject reads: โ€˜[gdal-dev] GDAL 3.10.2 โ€œGulf of Mexicoโ€ is released.โ€™ The email, written by Even Rouault, announces the release of GDAL/OGR 3.10.2, a bug-fix version, with download links for the source files in different formats. A humorous note suggests choosing a geodetic datum wisely. The email ends with a link to the senderโ€™s website, spatialys.com, and the sign-off: โ€˜My software is free, but my time generally not.โ€™

This ๐Ÿ‘‡.
Specifically, for people in the quantitative sciences, I recommend:
- Have a well-tended ORCID
- GitHub/GitLab repository with some of your research outputs
- Personal webpage (e.g. quarto) on a static hosting service such as GitHub/GitLab Pages, Netlify, Posit Connect, ...

Tomorrow Night Bright but with some hack (discused here: github.com/rstudio/rstu... ) to put just the code and console/terminal panels dark and the rest of the interface light (I like this way more because it helps with my spatial memory)
