Writing the 2nd edition of my data science book has reminded me of this: Students don't struggle with advanced topics. They struggle with fundamentals explained too abstractly. Teaching requires empathy, not just expertise.

I am beyond excited to announce that ggplot2 4.0.0 has just landed on CRAN.

It's not every day we have a new major #ggplot2 release but it is a fitting 18 year birthday present for the package.

Get an overview of the release in this blog post and be on the lookout for more in-depth posts #rstats

You guys are doing it again.

I wrote this for the Union of Concerned Scientists. Read it and adjust your messaging accordingly. 🧪🦑🌎🐟
