Fun with Positron | Andrew Heiss Combine the best of RStudio and Visual Studio Code in Posit’s new Positron IDE

Forgot some Positron shoutouts,

@andrew.heiss.phd has a nice post talking about Positron (www.andrewheiss.com/blog/2024/07...) and Albert Rapp also has one (3mw.albert-rapp.de/p/using-the-...)

I'm an adult and I can go to bed as early as I want.

this is clearly for the security guard watching the stairs

The Fed can’t do its job with politicized data.

“To borrow from the soft-landing analogy, having a flawed instrument panel can be just as dangerous as having an obediently partisan pilot.”

The adult version of “I wish I had a gumball machine on my desk”

I sure wish I was blessed enough to see a wombat in real life and have wombat pics to show for it 🥹

Yesss. Thank you!!!

It’s okay, you can start with a very basic layout that’s customizable for different types of #dataviz.
My first one was super simple. For instance, no gridlines. But if I’m working on a time series, I might add dotted y-axis gridlines for clarity. (Whoever sees this, be kind, I’m still learning)

I like this one from @rfortherestofus.com: youtu.be/I9DEq4zDCb4?...

I don’t want to force anyone to learn anything tbh. I was only joking.

This doesn’t bode well for the future of economic data, particularly the CPI … (from New Yorker’s very good profile of Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick).

Latest financial numbers offer some warning signs for economy It’s possible that the disappointing numbers are growing pains, or they may be a preview of more disruption to come.

I chatted with @chrisrugaber.bsky.social about the jobs numbers.

I'm not quite as cool as Chair Powell (Chris goes to the FOMC press conference) so appreciate Chris giving me the time :)

Tranlate purrr iterator functions to regular for loops Makes learning, teaching and debugging iterator functions from the purrr package easy by translating them into regular for loops.

Just use @timteafan.bsky.social‘s {loopurrr} #Rstats package to convert {purrr} functions into for-loops! 🐈
