Many of my colleagues use box.com (a commercial cloud storage provider) to store and share data & metadata. Luckily, the awesome boxr R package by Brendan Rocks, @ijlyttle and Nathan Day allows me to read / write files directly from box. But I always forget how to authenticate on a new system - so I wrote a tutorial: "Interacting with box cloud storage: the boxr R package" https://tomsing1.github.io/blog/posts/boxr/ Perhaps it's useful to others as well!

A few days ago, @njtierney , @adamhsparks , and @milesmcbain reviewed {soils} in a livestream. {soils} is a WIP #RStats package for generating parameterized #QuartoPub reports.

Throughout the entire session, my brain was exploding 🤯 with all the nuggets of wisdom, tips & tricks, and best practices.

I wrote up my thoughts, reflections, and notes in this quick blog post.

It's easy to learn the basics (loops!) or pkgs in a new language, but it's harder to rediscover the "didn't know I needed it, don't know to call it, can't live w/out it" utility fxs

That's the topic of my next #python Rgonomics post for #rstats users

Love this online recipe hack!
...

If you add “cooked.wiki/“ to beginning of ANY recipe url (before the https:/) it strips away everything but the recipe and organizes the ingredients and method into separate columns.

Also adds a dictation option too!
