Climate datasets are everywhere, but how do we blend temperature🔥 and rainfall💧 into one dynamic map?
My new video unveils the secret to creating 3D bivariate maps that merge these two crucial measures.
Prepare to be surprised by what you uncover!

The best fertilizer? A thriving ecosystem. We don’t rely on chemicals—we build fertility by working with nature. Syntropic agroforestry stacks species, cycles nutrients, and lets trees farm themselves. The result? A farm that grows food while regenerating the land. #SyntropicForestry

New #rstats pkg gander is now on CRAN!
gander is a coding assistant that knows how describe the objects in your global R environment. So, when you're working with data, LLMs will know the names, types, and distributions of data columns, resulting in much more effective completions.

Facebook is next on the list. It has actually been due for many years already

Most academics think critical thinking is about being a skeptic.
But the key mental model isn't about questioning everything.
Most academics think it's about:
• Learning complex frameworks
• Memorizing logical fallacies
• Speaking in fancy jargon
• Reading more papers
Wrong approach.
