So I'm putting together an #rstats workshop on {targets}, and this involves writing a bunch of code that doesn't use targets, and I am getting absolutely destroyed by stale-state type bugs that I am no longer vigilant against after 5 years of working with drake/targets.

Frustrating but also affirming. 😅

@joelnitta yes! Some of the WIP is already public. All of it will be eventually.

@milesmcbain is this it? https://github.com/MilesMcBain/ssa_targets_workshop

I love the cycles vs. lines part. Totally agree that data analysis in practice is much more cyclical than most of us are probably conscious of, and this leads to tension when trying to write/use a linear sequence of analysis scripts 🔄

I had not thought to describe it that way before, but may have to borrow this the next time I teach {targets}!
