My cat Pam sitting on my shoulders while I cut a bell pepper. She demanded "ups" while I was cooking.

Maybe blog post #8 or 9 could be you adding a toggle between yellowed and color-corrected? 🫨
I wrote up a post a few years ago on how to extract colors from an image with k-means clustering (might be helpful)

Libby's app output (linked in her post)
Original artwork by Ellsworth from 1951 after which Libby modeled her app — collage on paper. "Spectrum Colors Arranged by Chance IV"
Oh I thought I recognized this as soon as I saw the app output! This is at the Art Institute! I go there many Thursdays to work in the member's lounge.
😅 I wouldn't have asked if I didn't think you could come back with the goods
1. Image or it didn't happen!
2. Did you do it programmatically, or manually?
Don't forgot Tom Hanks got covid on the same day:

Self-answer to the latter question: mostly no, sometimes yes according to a quick Google images search.
Did you generate random lines, then within regions randomly allocate one of five Bauhaus colors?
I've seen a few Bauhaus works in the US/UK/EU. I don't recall whether any of them had adjacent regions with the same colors (?). Not that such rules need to be followed!
`^` >> `**`
R accepts exponentiation like a**b (equivalent to a^b), possibly to be nice to SAS users? I think a**b is pretty common.

I love this hex sticker!
(Also glad for this group and @ivelasq3.bsky.social 's scrollytelling!)
David Lynch (RIP) meme variation where in a conversation with fellow filmmaker Jason Barlow, David Lynch said, "Python feels like soldering; R feels like painting." When Barlow asks him to "Elaborate on that," Lynch smiles and says, "No."
Possibly weirded out my long-suffering colleagues with this idiosyncratic observation last week, and feel like it belongs in a meme.
#RStats #Python #RIPDavidLynch
Cool! Can't wait!
FWIW, I think I ran into the same issue Davis ran into in the issue you linked:
github.com/quarto-dev/q...
I would share for testing but all of my source repos are on private! ~~Github Copilot~~
Is the goal to run this before using Air on QMDs?
Nabbed it! (Thanks; also enjoyed the read)
I actually prefer the range bar to the box plot and have been scheming to write an M.E. Spear {ggplot2} extension since this exchange (I just haven't had the time), which probably benefited from your linked 2016 blog post:
github.com/tidyverse/gg...
Ahhh! I've been looking for something like this for my blog!
(Wait... it's in Distill... is Distill still .Rmd-only?)
Yeah, I got a swag bag from #PositConf2025 and the Posit-branded S-Gel pen is in heavy rotation at the moment. I have dozens of other S-Gel pens, but this one has a special place in my heart. Will disassemble others for a refill.
I still use a MIT Sloan Sports Analytics Conf water bottle from 2017!
I wrote a wrapper around {knitr} kable and {kableExtra} kable_styling that I put at the top of every HW assignment I give to students (output is always PDF). I also have it in all of my Beamer slides 😬
It makes kable tables nice by default.
You can still call, e.g. knitr::kable, too!
abba, abc, xyz, xx, yy, and temp are my most commonly used placeholders/temporary names
Are there even rules against this, though?
"Thou shalt not have draft code!"?
I came here to make this comment. Beat me to it!
= forever
CHI - United Center is ~2 mi away
MIL - 1.5 hr drive
MIN - staying in IA with s/o's bro (7hr drive)
DEN - staying in CO with s/o's other bro (flight)
CLE - 5.5 hr drive (hotel req)
IND - 3 hr drive
(All on days that work nicely with academic calendar)
It's rough being away from home and a Spurs fan! NBA Team Pass has been helpful for the past decade, and I've been catching road games for the past couple of years, too! (This season: CHI, MIL, MIN, DEN, CLE, IND) #gsg
Laptop cover featuring 15 hex stickers and three Spurs basketball stickers
I might need to do this to keep up with my collection.
I have space for maybe two more, but I could fit even more if I moved some around; I'm scared to death of doing that!
I know I've seen guides around the internet on how to convert these hex stickers to magnets, but I've lost track of them 🙈
The backside of the coin from another post that features the front side of the tidydevday 2025 coin.
Did my neighbor and I immediately check to see if our coins stuck together like magnets? Yes.
But also, the backside is a relief rendering of the {tidyverse} hex logo, so it feels trying to put a magnet on would undo one of the sides 🙃🫠
I also fixed the 2nd PR this morning.
Both of my PRs were about transitioning from the {magrittr} pipe to the Base R pipe — one to clean up {forcats} examples/vignette, and one to deprecate a {usethis} function that makes it easy to add %>% to a package.
github.com/r-lib/usethis/pull/2183
Three tidyverse/r-lib stickers and a commemorative coin for participating in tidy dev day 2025
A couple and the coin!
Hadley Wickham, me, and all of the post-it notes of completed PRs.
Just finished my first #rstats #TidyDevDay! It might have been a net negative on open issues, because I:
* opened an issue each in {pak}, {roxygen2}, and {gitcreds}
* submitted a PR to {forcats}
* submitted a PR to {usethis} (needs corrected test)
But at least I got this selfie with @hadley.nz 🫠😆
In the "super rare" section at the bottom next to flair!
