This map shows hotspots within 2.5 km of the city center in 2024. Each purple dot = one accident involving a bike where someone got hurt.

Since yesterday was also Halloween, I’m sticking with a spooky theme and looking at points where ghosts have been spotted in New York City 👻

Robert (Bob) Kubinec (@rmkubinec.bsky.social; 45/1/6; 2025-10-31): I just ordered @vincentab.bsky.social ’s epic new book Model to Meaning.

This project is one of the most exciting recent developments in data science. The book & #rstats / #python package show how to understand your model within its real-world context/use case.

Kyle Walker (@kylewalker.bsky.social; 20/0/1; 2025-11-02): For Day 2 of #30DayMapChallenge (Lines): did you know that mapgl has a built-in measurement tool in its draw control?

Use show_measurements = TRUE to interactively measure line distances (and polygon areas) on your map.

Tyler Morgan-Wall (@tylermw.com; 15/1/2; 2025-11-01): Happy #rayrender Halloween indeed!

@tterence.bsky.social inspired me to whip up an animation: a pumpkin made entirely in rayrender! (CSG for the carved pumpkin, extruded path stem, cyl + sphere candle, and r_obj eyes)

Also, denoising made the below animation render in <3 minutes! #RStats


Paul 🔜PaxU (@paul314.bsky.social; 14/0/2; 2025-11-01): #30daymapchallenge Day 1: points. NOAA shipwreck data + #rstats (marmap), Known Shipwrecks of the Gulf of Mexico. There may be some imprecision in the NOAA lat/long along the coast, or perhaps it includes inland waterways. But lots of them, unfortunately.

Francisco Rodriguez-Sanchez (@frodsan.bsky.social; 6/0/1; 2025-11-01): Interesting. 2 lessons here:

  1. Don’t use LLM output code uncritically, even if it runs smoothly

  2. As developers we can protect our #rstats code from such problems e.g. with rlang.r-lib.org/reference/ch…
