If you use #RStats {targets} a lot, within #RStudio or #PositronIDE , you might want to try out the new(ish) `tar_assign` for workflows instead of `tar_plan` or making your own lists of targets.

Because `tar_assign` takes a wrapped code block (using `{ ... }` for multiline statements), the interpreter actually **sees** the variables properly, and can do tab completion on the variable names!

It's so nice.

Dear scientists, especially the R-community:

The NZ government wants to scrap all soc social sciences and humanities.

I probably don't have to explain why this is a totally bonkers milei-ish idea. (maybe just add the detail that Māori researchers will be overproportionally affected by these budget cuts, but this is probably anyway a feature of the plan)

I address the #RStats community explicitely, since R was developed in Aotearoa. And here in the Fediverse we are *many* R nerds!

So, @kjhealy or other kiwis, is there something the international academic community could do to express our thoughts and support your struggle?

Looking for #advice for trying to correct #ATR #FTATR #spectrum using #R / #rstudio .
I need to make my #spectra comparable to #OPTIR but I can’t figure out the #coding for #ATRcorrection .

Note: I don’t need to do #baselinecorrection as such, more about #weighting :)

#rstats does #positron allow pop up plot panel like #rstudio? I can't find the feature

Did you know that the BRICS nations collectively represent over 40% of the world's population? These five major emerging economies—Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa—play a significant role in the global economy.

I have created an extensive article on this topic for those who want to dive deeper into the GDP comparison among the BRICS nations.

So apparently I've been using the keyboard shortcuts in #RStudio really well, and combined with the little split Microsoft keyboard and upright mouse, have had tendonitis under control.

I think switching to #PositronIDE may be causing me to use my mouse more, as a tendon on the top of my right hand is suddenly inflamed and irritated.

Besides enabling RStudio shortcuts, should I just be using the command palette more??

I may be looking at a wireless rollerball this week too.

Thought I'd give #Positron a spin just to see if it worked better for #RStats based stuff on Linux than VSCode (I've had issues getting VSCode to detect R, etc), and it won't detect my self-compiled version. #RStudio works just fine with it.

Bug issue filed.

My most used #RStudio #RStats keyboard shortcuts:

* Ctrl + Shift + F10 - restart R session
* Ctrl + Shift + Alt + P - run all rmd / qmd chunks before this one
* r -> Shitf + Tab - insert my custom code snippet to setup an R chunk
