Harriet Mason (@harriet-mason.bsky.social; 111/2/37; 2025-12-06): HEY! YOU! ggdibbler 0.6.1 is finally up on CRAN!
harriet-mason.github.io/ggdibbler/in…
You can now pass random variables to any aesthetic in any ggplot geom/stat. If you can express it as a distribution, ggdibbler can plot it. It also works with ggplot extensions, like gganimate. #rstats ↪

Kyle Walker (@kylewalker.bsky.social; 32/0/3; 2025-12-06): This is the most exciting time ever to be working in data, and I’m not talking about AI.
3 years ago, I wrote a database-centric guide in my book for analyzing the full 92 million record 1910 Census.
Now, with #rstats and @duckdb?
Analyze those 92 million rows in seconds. ↪

Coded with the {bskyr} and {ggplot2} R packages.

Riinu Pius (@pius.cloud; 7/1/0; 2025-12-06): #AdventOfCode Day 06 - both parts 🥳💃
Knew I wanted to do today’s in #rstats instead of #pydata as soon as I saw it. Nice wrangling. Some duplication in code, but don’t have time to reduce. Pun intended. ↪
Dylan Pieper (@dylanpieper.bsky.social; 7/0/2; 2025-12-06): Built a shinychat experiment for conversational surveys. Will people open up in chats vs forms? Two versions: LLM/claude and NLP/udpipe. Try my ice cream preference survey! 🍦 #rstats

Mid terms are November 3rd 2026. Go register voters. (@usrbinr.bsky.social; 4/1/0; 2025-12-06): okay – identified my holiday projects and they involve {httr2} and @motherduck.com .
I remember once seeing a video series on httr2 or more actually more on APIs and how they work / how to use them – anyone know what I’m talking about?
