After coding throughout the Easter holidays in Rust, returning to #rstats feels sooo unusual. I find myself automatically adding 'L' to all integers and trailing zeroes to all floats.
There are 22350 #rstats packages on CRAN:
- 10.10% are in English.
- 0.21% are in other languages than English.
- 0.03% use multiple languages.
- 89.66% do not declare any language.
#30DayChartChallenge - Day 14 (kinship) and Day 15 (complicated) Two in one today to try and catch up with this - kinship care is all about children living with family members other than parents England & Wales - complicated shows flows of Afghans from Pakistan to Afghanistan #rstats #dataviz
I have been conceptualising and developing an R package {generatervis} which is useful to synthesise and visualise clinical data. This is the first blog in a series of blogs that I am planning to write about the processes that I am following from ideation to implementation.
Here's the blog link:

Thank you, @rowlandm, for being such an amazing and thoughtful mentor!

Hello! I'm seeking my next role.
I lead a team of research software engineers, with skills in project management & collaboration. I'm also a software developer. My degrees are in ecology. See my website here: https://kristinariemer.github.io/
This is due to unfortunate financial circumstances of my current institution, negatively impacting my data science team: https://datascience.cct.arizona.edu/news/data-science-team-seeking-new-projects-after-losing-funding
Please pass my info along to your network and share relevant job postings with me. Thanks!

#30DayChartChallenge Día 21: Fossils! 
Gráfico de áreas apiladas con la proporción (%) de cada fuente (Fósiles/Térmica No Ren., Nuclear, Hidro, Eólica, Solar, Otras Renov.), usando datos diarios de @REDElectrica **suavizados con media móvil de 30 días** (`frollmean`).
¡La #TransicionEnergetica en tendencia!
Nuclear: Base estable.
Hidro: Variable pero importante. Solar: ¡El boom!
La media móvil ayuda a ver la señal principal sobre el ruido diario.

Just moved servers from fosstodon.org to rstats.me!
Will still be posting mostly about #rstats package development.

A streamchart is a stacked area chart that displays the evolution of a numeric value (y-axis) over another numeric value (x-axis) for studying relative proportions of the whole https://r-graph-gallery.com/web-streamchart-with-ggstream.html #ggstream #RStats
I got some unfortunate news earlier this month: #UniversityOfArizona has decided to defund the group I work for, @cct-datascience.bsky.social, amidst their continuing budget crisis.

It super sucks and means I'll likely have to drop down to 50% in May and I'll be looking for new, better supported, #rseng or #datascience positions, ideally still working with biologists in #rstats in some capacity. Remote or in #Tucson.
Let me know if you know of anything!

#rstats
The common sense of high-quality programming
•Constructing quality classes and routines is an iterative process.
•Writing good pseudocode calls for using understandable English, avoiding language specific features, and writing at the level of intent
•The PPP is a useful tool for detailed design and makes coding easy
•Iterate through multiple approaches
•Check your work at each step
If you've wanted to get started with #python and #rstats in the browser (wasm style), don't miss out on Quarto-live, which makes this very easy: https://github.com/r-wasm/quarto-live
I'm using it myself on this (very much WIP) beginners course in R: beginr.org
