Matthew Kling (@matthewkling.bsky.social; 119/7/25; 2026-05-27): Announcing #RStats package ggcube, now on CRAN – make 3D #ggplot2 figures using coord_3d()

Michael Friendly (@datavisfriendly.bsky.social; 79/0/9; 2026-05-28): Robert Gentleman, co-founder of #rstats, receives an honorary doctorate from #UBC 🎈🎈🎈 ↪
Posit (@posit.co; 56/1/14; 2026-05-29): Announcing mori 0.1.0: Zero-copy shared memory for #RStats!
Parallel R usually means duplicating data across every worker, causing RAM bloat.
mori fixes this by sharing R objects across processes via OS-level shared memory. Share once, read anywhere

Totoro (@nigelsq.bsky.social; 33/3/6; 2026-05-28): I want to explain to those who haven’t used #duckdb with #Rstats that sometimes DuckDB isn’t the difference between fast and slow but between possible and not. ↪
Libby Heeren (@libbyheeren.bsky.social; 24/1/2; 2026-05-29): If you’re looking for a way to make your #shiny app look a lil less like a shiny app AND you’re wanting a way to control UI responsiveness to the user’s screen size, then Fomantic-UI containers via shiny.semantic are so cooool 😎

Tristan Snowsill (@tmsnowsill.bsky.social; 19/4/0; 2026-05-29): Dear #Rstats users, please do not name your main data table/frame “dt” or “df”. One day, you will thank me when you need to use the probability density function for the Student’s t or F-distribution!
(“d” or “dat” are safe 😊) ↪
Tan G. (@tangandhara.bsky.social; 19/0/6; 2026-05-28): I like understanding how ideas for charts come about and it’s interesting to read @owenwntr.bsky.social’s explainer on that local election chart I saw everywhere.
