A four-panel meme. Panel 1: A cartoon stick figure asks a rabbit "hey rabbit population hows it goin?" Panel 2: A logistic map / bifurcation diagram appears — a complex mathematical chart showing how rabbit populations behave chaotically under the logistic growth equation. Panel 3: The stick figure stares blankly, visibly overwhelmed. Panel 4: The stick figure, still stunned, simply says "what."

I feel like this is one for #databs and #rstats

Over the weekend, I started collecting/organizing a list of cool #rstats skills for LLMs at github.com/christopherk.... Please open an issue or PR in any awesome additions you see!

Includes a section for helpful posts like @ivelasq3.bsky.social's⬇️
