If you're into data science and #networking, available next Thursday evening, and can make it to Chapman (Orange, CA), I definitely encourage you to join us for our monthly #rstats meetup. Free food (please RSVP!) and always a great learning opportunity!

@merm_bot @JosiahParry This is excellent thank you, appreciate the compose tip too

Come join us at our February @socalrug meetup, What's New in #Quarto & Lightning Talks ⚡️. RSVP via Meetup for headcount (oh and free food!): #python #rstats #posit #meetup #networking

Struggling to understand when to use #dplyr's reframe() function... The docs make sense with the provided examples, but I don't understand when I'd use this "in the real". Please help and #ELI5 🙏 #rstats

@mim_djo @tcarpenter216 Agreed about DuckDB for ETL... Check out the Arrow package and/or DuckDB (or even duckplyr if you're just looking for a dplyr equivalent).

RT @JosiahParry: R programmers who work with Esri hosted data: I'm building {arcgislayers}, a 📦 for Feature Services directly from R. I…

@EmilyRiederer Here is the repo for a neat Quarto listing page that @SepDadsetan made but not entirely sure about the customization:

@rappa753 Is readr's parser faster than lubridate? 🤔 Going to bench::mark() this sometime soon!
