I recently came across this image and it’s a great way to summarize how I feel about my work. Whether supporting other consultants through resources or referrals, or supporting people in their data management work, helping to lift other people up benefits us all.

Do you teach #rstats? Do your students complain about how lame and old-fashioned dplyr is? Don't worry: I have the solution for you: github.com/hadley/genzp....

As an #rstats user, I am proud of my #python brothers and sisters for standing up for their community. It's a shame they won't have these resources, but community is and always has been what makes a language great. Today the python world stood up for theirs

Rund um das Wrack der Ostsee-Fähre "Estonia" gilt ein Tauchverbot. Nach Recherchen von WDR, NDR und SZ besteht jedoch der Verdacht, dass Russland den Ort für Unterwasserspionage gegen die NATO nutzt.

In exchange for not sending Tomahawks, I promised Donald I would give up land Russia does not control in Zaporizhzhia & Kherson. In return, Ukraine would give Russia land we also do not control in Donbas.

1/2. The phrase "land swap" is being used to mean "Ukraine concedes land illegally occupied by Russia and also concedes territory that is not even occupied." That is not a swap.

Since we’ve been talking reef health today, let’s talk one of the methods used to monitor it across thousands of square km.
Enter: manta tow.
A survey method so bold it involves a human holding onto a board… being dragged behind a boat. 🧵👇
