Just unsubscribed from @Posit emails after seeing their AI focus in keynotes for upcoming conference. I want efficient code and a functioning foss ecosystem, not bloated AI slop making foss unsustainable. Stop taking and promoting free/discounted heroin samples from the amoral/evil AI tech giants!
Anyone got a good, free alternative to Rstudio? #r #rstudio #datascience

@btuftin

at works I am using vs-slope. not great. At home I am using emacs and slowly ramping up on it.

I am hoping @Posit can improve the LLM landscape since I could see some local LLM and correct implementation. Now we are not here...

@btuftin

Let me recommend you one of the oldest integrated development environments and graphical user interfaces for R, which is #RKWard @rkward . It is in existence since 2002, has many features and I happen to like it a lot. It's 100% open source, extendable ... you name it. In 2012 we even underwent peer review. Admittedly, this is quite some time ago, but in the meantime support for Markdown, Quarto and other technologies was integrated.
