Very excited to be reunited with @ellakaye.co.uk + Heather Turner to help out in the #RDevDay! Lots of small wins with @emitanaka.org and others on making R manuals pretty, a continuing project I worked on at last years R Dev Day in Austria 🫶

Do my residuals look okay? @weihaolipatrick.bsky.social showed off his R package / Shiny app {autovi} for making visual inferences on residual plots!

We also had rainbow cake to make us happy, it also made the slides rainbow. Thank you Elle!! 📈🌈 #BDSI #dataviz

The #OceaniaR hackathon was a lot of fun! Lots of cool projects and clever solutions. There were hex stickers/cookies/tables! 
@visnut thanks for hosting us! 💜 

We worked on a #data bias problem using data from Australia: github.com/StatSocAus/o...

Very proud of our group! 💥
