you are on fire recently!

100% i find that fixing many mistakes are faster than pointing them out

I think that @davisvaughan.bsky.social figured this out.

add the following to your settings.json should do the trick
"window.title": "${activeEditorShort}${separator}${rootName}${separator}${profileName}${separator}${activeRepositoryBranchName}"

it like having a bad chair at a office job, bad judgement or financial decision

I don't have examples or proof but I'm confident it is already making it into published stuff

it is for the same reason why always have slides about random seeds for our modeling workshops

That is a good point, I haven’t needed that yet, I should try to get that incorporated better

Any time!
It’s worth noting that {tibble} drops row names quite often for the same reasons

Tools for working with row names — rownames
While a tibble can have row names (e.g., when converting from a regular data frame), they are removed when subsetting with the [ operator. A warning will be raised when attempting to assign non-NULL r...

Imagine randomly sampling this data set with replacement. This is perfectly valid for tidy data, but would violate the uniqueness of row names

Tidy data doesn’t see much difference between id variables and non-Id variables. I would suggest not making the distinction as a tidy data principle and instead make it as a “in this state we need the variable id to be unique”
