One of my favorite conf talks of all time was Ryan Timpe's talk about learning R via hilarious side projects, so I'm pretty freaking pumped to say he's is gonna be the featured guest at the Data Science Hangout tomorrow 🤩 If you haven't seen that 2020 talk yet, here it is: youtu.be/oOG-aXP_ICI
Recording of my #positconf25 talk about learning from AI mishaps is online! (Took me a few days to muster the courage to watch 🤣)
