It's #TidyTuesday again! Thanks to Shamsuddeen Hassan Muhammad for sharing the data this week on African language sentiments 🌍

I made use of {ggtext} again this week to try some alternative approaches to labelling bar charts! 📊

Suppose, in a #QuartoPub document, using #rStats I have a list of length G, each item in this list is a flextable - I need to use flextable as opposed to kable, to allow for output to docx.
G is unknown apriori, but will be at least 1.

Is there any way to create a sequence of tables with associated labels and captions that could be worked out dynamically/parsed?
Manually, this can be done really easily (creating new labels etc) and knowing when to stop, but is there a way of automating this?

A paper of mine was accepted last year and now the journal has moved publisher and hence style files. I do not want to have to fix this mess 😭

For the Bob Ross paintings data for #TidyTuesday this week, I went for a cross between data viz and generative art 🎨

I created a sankey chart to visualise the colours used across different seasons of the show! 🖼️🖼️

Have recently been playing around with `ggh4x`, which provides some nice drop-in extensibility for ggplot2.

E.g. Tufte-style "floating axes". (Very easy in base plot, but a bit of a pain in vanilla ggplot2.) teunbrand.github.io/ggh4x/refe

can't watch netflix on train wifi but you can install packages!

all this back and forth is painfully slow (and not actually resulting in a viva date)

You've heard about Stan and want to learn some more? Maybe you're about to step into the Bayesian paradigm and don't know where to start 🤔

In this week's blog post, we'll take a look what you can do with #Stan and draw comparisons to #JAGS!

It's time for #TidyTuesday again! Thanks to Evan Gower for sharing the data this week!

We're looking at stock prices of tech companies, and I used geom_sankey_bump() from {ggsankey} to look at the rank of Adobe over time!

Big stonks for unless you're IBM! Had fun using corrr::networkwork_plot() for a really fast & effective way to identify correlations ... then spent ages colour coding the subtitle and adding the side plots

"Can you explain this gap in your resume?"

"Yes, I used LaTeX and couldn't fix that bit"

just took some broken mudguards off my bike and found out in the process that the leg on my pannier rack has snapped 😭😭😭😭
