Can anyone explain why Kamala Harris hasn't download my R package from CRAN yet? I understand she's on the campaign trail, but all she needs is an internet connection. Technical difficulties? #rstats
#rstats friends, I have a question: given that I have some built R package on disk, what is the blessed/easiest way can I (programmatically) check if it's in source or binary format? Beyond just checking the file extension.

Is it wrong that, when the NYT crossword clue is "something to stub", my first thought is 'function' and not 'toe'? 😅 #rstats
After a hard day of wrangling data from APIs, I'm very seriously considering naming my first child `tidyr::unnest_wider()`. I mean, just look how easy it makes converting highly nested JSON into a tidy data frame?! 🤩 Friday #rstats fun!
Have you ever wanted to generate random but readable strings? Like for files or folders? Today's Friday #rstats fun is thanks to @rgfitzjohn for the ids package📦 and its wonderful `adjective_animal()` 😻function.
Today's Friday #rstats fun: I discovered the (experimental) `tree()` function in the lobstr package for the pretty-printing of lists. So much cleaner than `str()`! 😍🗒️ Thanks @NicholasStrayer!
