eli knaap (@knaaptime.com; 0/1/0; 2025-11-19): as part of this journey, i also learned that knitr (and thus quarto, as a side effect) can automatically translate interactive graphics (e.g. leaflet maps) into static images via webshot2 (github.com/rstudio/webs…), which is just awesome and i wish the jupyter engine could pull that off too ↪

Emi Tanaka (@emitanaka.org; 71/1/12; 2025-11-16): Congratulations to my student, Maggie Ma, for publishing her first #rstats package {ggincerta} on CRAN 🥳
Spatial uncertainty visualisation (bivariate, pixel, exceedance, glyph), like {Vizumap}, but fully integrated with ggplot2 – a much simpler API with all the advantages of the ggplot2 system. ↪
Robert (Bob) Kubinec (@rmkubinec.bsky.social; 66/5/9; 2025-11-16): My #rstats cheat code for today is the binom.confint function in the binom package that will spit out 12 different ways of calculating a CI for a proportion.
Also, this is why you use R for statistics…
(and of course the correct CI method is bayes 😎) ↪

And I started laughing as I was actually reading @hadley.nz’s history of the #rstats tidyverse.

The Blues had to feature (as always!) and this time it’s to answer the question how far can you walk in 10 mins. I may update this in the future to show all pubs within a reasonable walking distance!
