New paper out in Scand J Med Sci Sports!
We tested the reliability of running economy (RE) and other physiological parameters during 90 min of running. ➡️ Running economy is highly reliable in a fatigued state, a 👍🏼 implication for testing durability

Bottom trawling is horribly destructive to coastal ocean ecosystems, and deep-sea mining will do the same to the open ocean. #OceanFilm 🌊

This is how I discovered relocate() which saved me a billion years when dealing with a 1,000 column dataset
I cannot recommend enough that you go look through the list of #dplyr functions (dplyr.tidyverse.org/reference/in...)
I reached out to get help with an #rstats problem and got back two solutions using two different functions, neither of which I knew about!
ps thanks @jamesgoldie.dev!
