Does anyone have a go-to guide for deploying {plumber} REST APIs on an on-premise server using Docker and Nginx? #rstats I used a tutorial earlier in the year, but I can't find it for some reason.

All I want to do is make unfounded conclusions. Am I asking for too much?

Not a silly idea at all.

I was skeptical at first, it has largely overtaken RStudio. Only issue I encountered early on was the View function in #Positron being different to RStudio.

I don't. I usually look at Excel to check the quality of the output before forwarding it to a stakeholder. I haven't used MS products in so long, I need to remind myself of basic functionality from time to time.

Starting to look like I might not be able to work at Harvard anymore due to recent funding cuts. If you know of any open statistical consulting positions that support remote work or are NYC-based, please reach out! 😅

At least you all are looking into different operators. I have been using %in% with negation. I will try these two out.
