Calvin M. de Wilde (@calvinmdewilde; 20): normal people: use wordpress to publish their blog Rstats people: use blogdown, github, etc to publish their blog and probably via an IDE😅

Arjan Boltjes (@arjanboltjes; 12): In some posts on my personal #blogdown-based website, code chunks contain a neat ‘copy button’ on the right-hand side (see pic), while in other posts this is not the case. Is this due to the difference between .Rmd and .Rmarkdown files? Can .Rmd do this, too? #rstats #rstudio https://t.co/rqLv0HxoSN

Vivek Das (@ivivek87; 10): @srigsri23 @tangming2005 That’s a valid one but blogdown/bookdown based ones are catching up a lot lately. Kind of interesting. Although, I am still not totally sold into it. And anyways, CV using R is still dynamic as the person making it can change it anytime & publish. 🤣😬

Matt Sams (@DrMattSams; 10): @DylHicks If you’re using something like knitr or kableExtra, you can pass a vector of column names (col.names = c()) that will “overwrite” your data frame’s names when the table renders. You may have to escape % symbols with \%. I can never remember if I’m not actively making a table.

Giovanni Pavolini (@gpavolini; 20): @sharon000 @jtrnyc @WeAreRLadies @apreshill I came here just to recommend xaringan for image focused presentations. It’s very good and not really difficult. Collaboration is a problem if your peers are PowerPoint or keynote users. Printing to pdf requires chromium and sometimes differ from the screen’s. But it’s the best!
