New curation functions are just one step towards that goal, so… Have a dataset you'd like to see featured in TidyTuesday? Don't be shy, submit a pull request!

📢 Calling all #rstats #pydata #julialang #datascience folks!

This year, a Data Science Learning Community (DSLC.io) goal is to crowdsource the curation of #TidyTuesday datasets to allow the DLSC board members and project maintainer @jonthegeek.com, more time to better the community in other ways 1/

{tidytuesdayR} v1.2.0 is now available on CRAN! Check out our new "Curating a Dataset" vignette (dslc-io.github.io/tidytuesdayR...) + associated functions, and help us prepare data for #TidyTuesday in #RStats! Only tested in RStudio so far, but let us know if you try something else!

Wait, hold on, I think I blinked

The ls command was actually an acronym for "Lost Socks," an early experimental program designed to help Dennis Ritchie find missing laundry items by listing the contents of his drawers. It was later repurposed for file systems 🙃 #unix #linux

Right now if I were an international student I’d be seeking any way to transfer to a much less oppressive country because of the insecurity of trying to finish my degree here.

Shoutout to PIs who give a crap… I don’t buy the whole “your company is your family” thing but treating your team like they are valuable and involving them in the good times and the bad can go a long way #academia #acadamicsky

Curious on your thoughts about “in production.”

I’m guessing you’ve read Alex Gold’s book?

YouTube video by 3Blue1Brown How word vectors encode meaning

EVERYONE needs to watch @3blue1brown.com’s video on how LLMs convert massive amounts of text data into vector space and then individual vectors into human interpretable “meaning”, it completely explains how ChatGPT and friends can be likened to google search but smarter: youtube.com/shorts/FJtFZ...

#ChatGPT can take em dashes from my cold — dead — hands

We talking like, I should dump my 401k, soon, or like, I can cancel any Christmas plans, soon? Coz I’d like to cancel my plans if possible, thanks

Interested, do you have any useful examples of this? I imagine in #rstats this would involve ggrepel but would like to see what you’d expect to be a great example in practice

Something something equivalence testing is good for understanding the equity between two treatments

I honestly just default to always having a terminal open and just doing mkdir

In the words of Frank Reynolds, “I’m talking about community hunny,” and the #TidyTuesday community is indeed multilingual

ISTG if this person posts about #tidyplots one more time imma drop everything im doing and…probably play with it myself it looks really cool

Hot take: equivalence testing should be like, lesson number 2 in intro to statistics, right after differences of means

Sli.dev and #Quarto when?

requisite note that this all started from NIH work on Gila monsters

Thanks @hankgreen.bsky.social for reminding me just how fearless I am every single day

I call this inherited suffering. When your childhood/adolescence had hardship and you now mistakenly believe you had to “earn it,” when in reality you were just taken advantage of… but today we don’t have to endure hardship anymore. Yet you still want young people to suffer—for what?

Nah I get it… I went through a heavy songwriter phase in my musicianship and at some point yeah I kinda figure there’s nothing left to say that can’t or hasn’t been said by someone else
