I absolutely *love* that @simonpcouch.com mentioned using Google Sheets to easily supply input(s) and target(s) for evaluating #LLM quality {vitals} 🧸

Sometimes selecting right-sized solutions means deviating the "serious" data science techniques to get things done, creatively!

I used to think using {renv} in projects wasn’t worth the headache as a solo developer, but after a recent conflict w/ GitHub Actions vs local package versions have converted me into an renv fan! 📦✨

Also trying a new watercolor technique with white crayon outlines 🎨

Hex stickers have arrived! 🎉

I'm prepping the first round of mailings — if you want one of these shiny (yes, shiny and #rshiny — pun 100% intended) hex stickers, make sure you're on the list:

☕️ I’m sipping out of my OG Simple mug today and this phrase is still as relevant as it was in 2016 when I received it.

Always choose joyful work that makes a positive difference for others!

My 2025 so far has included me really embracing LLMs in my workflow and it's been exciting to recognize that they can amplify my abilities.

👃 One skill I've been developing is building up my intuition to sniff out bad code faster from responses!

I saw this sign while grabbing breakfast this morning🪧

It’s hanging by a chain, but held in the right position with visible duct tape. Not elegant, but effective.

Reminds me of #databs consulting a bit, often it’s about thoughtful, functional fixes that respect the context and get the job done 💪

🦉I made some birdhouses and a bird shiny app!

Can you guess which one took longer to build? 😆 I love combining my skills in #rstats + engineering + hobbies
