#RStats hive-mind, am I hallucinating, or did I read somewhere that CRAN didn't like when functions in a package have a default of "." for a path, as in, f(path = ".")?

I think my next #RStats package, rixpress, is ready for ropensci review. But perhaps, before I submit, if someone would like to give it a go, that'd be very appreciated! If you already use rix, and want to build reproducible pipelines, give rixpress a go: github.com/b-rodrigues/ri…

On the 13th at 16:00 CEST, I’ll be giving a webinar, in French, on #Nix and how it can be used by #RStats users to set up reproducible development environments! More info: recherche-reproductible.fr/webinaires/202…

Wednesday join me for a 3 hour workshop on how to use #Nix for reproducible data science! From reproducible development environments to setting up CI, Docker images and pipelines, we'll learn it all together! rconsortium.github.io/RMedicine_webs…

In 1996, two academics from the University of Auckland, New Zealand, launched a new programming language. 25 years later, this language is one of the most widely used in the world. Here's the story of R: #rstats

When GPT-5 switches models between conversations, it gives a very strange feeling.
