Brian O’Meara (@omearabrian.bsky.social; 9/5/1; 2025-07-04): One thing I’ve noticed in student #rstats code lately: very detailed try / catch blocks, presumably added by LLMs writing the code. It’s odd, because it’s rare to see that in working code in my area (phylogenetics), but maybe broader #rstats world uses them much more. β†ͺ
