Resonant words from the Auschwitz Memorial today: “Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. It did not start from gas chambers. Hatred was gradually developed. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through dehumanization & violence to systematic & industrial murder. “Auschwitz took time.”

Sometimes when building a minimal reprex for a bug, you discover that you were the bug all along. I assume this is what Kafka was on about.

This datetime stupidity is new to me! This slide digitizing gadget lets you associate specific metadata when you scan an image. But once you go past 1980 it circles around to 2050 🤯 Wouldn’t you think that most images stuck in slide form are from before 1980 🤔

I just got a "Spotify Wrapped"-inspired email from my ... eSIM provider 🤔 I appreciate the hustle, but I don't think this concept really transfers.

I really didn't feel like getting out of bed today, but past me had agreed to do 2 (two!) remote #rladies meetups. Still super upset about what's coming, but hanging out with your people, virtually and IRL, is the best you can do on a day like this 😔

If you're an #rstats user, one way to protect yourself from yourself is to do: usethis::git_vaccinate() which will setup or modify your user-level (aka global) gitignore file to handle the most obvious R-associated files that probably don't belong in git. usethis.r-lib.org/reference/gi...

If someone is on bluesky directly but they have also set up some sort of bridge thingy with their mastodon account ... what's the sensible stance re: following those 2 accounts? Feels like we're in for a lot of duplication in various forms. 🤔

I'll be chatting with R-Ladies Philly soon about using GitHub code search to answer your own #rstats questions. Related: if you have any especially fruitful GitHub searches in the near future, let me know! Good, fresh, authentic examples are super useful.

Happy halloween memory of my dad, who died this year: camping with another family somewhere in Georgia. The two dads quietly distributed candy throughout the campground during the day, so that all of us kids could triumphantly trick-or-treat that night and collect it all again 🎃😁
