Amazing to me how useful looking at data in 2D PCA continues to be, even though the approach sounds crazy on paper—"p-dimensional ellipsoid", rantings of a madman. PCA is the cockroach of dimension reduction. I expect it to be present in any advanced galactic civilization.

Are you interested in the new story map feature in {mapgl}, but all of your #rstats mapping already uses Leaflet? Good news: the package's story map feature supports Leaflet as well! Check out this video - it's an example from the R Leaflet docs translated to a story map.
