Earlier this summer, I got to share about teaching statistics with #Positron at eCOTS 2026! 💫 The video is now available to watch, and I think it was a great opportunity to reflect on how the tools we build can either support student discovery or shut it down. www.causeweb.org/cause/ecots/...

🎓 Our most requested course is live on Posit Academy: Getting Started with R & the Tidyverse! Learn R basics, wrangle data with dplyr, & build ggplot2 plots all in your browser via Quarto Live. Free course 👇 academy.posit.co/getting-star... #rstats #tidyverse

I'm falling a little short of my fundraising goal and would really REALLY appreciated any financial love you can provide to support The Marfan Foundation. Any amount you can donate would mean the world to me, and would make a big difference for those families impacted by Marfan Syndrome.

Interested in giving Positron a try? 🚀 We just launched a free, self-paced learning path covering: 🔹 UI navigation 🔹 Working with data 🔹 Running & managing code 👉 Start here: academy.posit.co/path/introdu... #DataScience #Positron #RStats #Python

🎓 If you haven’t given Positron a spin yet, here's another helpful course to get you started! #Posit Academy just released a course on working with data inside #Positron. It takes you through importing, viewing, and analyzing data. Great for Python and R users! academy.posit.co/working-with...

I've just tried Posit Assistant on the free plan and must say, I'm impressed. Using the super-cheap Gemma 4 26B model (10% cost of Sonnet) on free plan it worked instantly. Hats of to the #posit team for integrating this into RStudio and allowing people to test with free plan!

Excited to join this week's Data Science Hangout! Come hang out and we can chat all things data science, teaching, running, Posit Academy, Peru, and more! posit.co/data-science...

Our team just released a new Posit Academy! I'm really proud of what our team created and I hope you all find value in it too. All of our live/on-demand courses are completely free...so give it a look and and let us know what you think!

If you love the Packages tab in RStudio, you're going to love this new feature in Positron!!!

We are thrilled to announce that Positron Server is now available for academic use via JupyterHub! This gives students a robust #RStats & #Python data science IDE without needing a local install or new infrastructure. Learn more: positron.posit.co/blog/posts/2...

Join me as I geek out on Positron Assistant and Databot! Also a great session for those new to Positron and want to learn the basics!

Sharing some virtual meeting etiquette - don't call out people for "being quiet" on a call. Speaking is not the only way to engage in meetings. Don't underestimate the power of listening.

First time trying databot, and I'm 🤯 I (well, databot mostly) analyzed a recent #Tidytuesday dataset and then published the results to #Posit Connect Cloud...all in less than 10 minutes. This is the future, folks 0197485c-b054-52b4-747a-b2f30cd6a449.share.connect.posit.cloud

New DSLC.io Workshop: Intro to Positron and Python with @ryjohnson09.bsky.social youtu.be/ItVPy2Ed_PA Note: Positron is still in alpha at the time of this recording. The IDE will likely change before release, and things discussed in this video may not match what you see. #PyData #DataScience #AI

Very proud to announce that @posit.co has joined the opensourcepledge.com. We're committing to spending $2000 / developer / year to support open source software that we use (but don't develop): posit.co/blog/posit-p... #rstats #pydata

Quarto v1.6 is here! 🎉 Now you can create a single file to unify branding across formats! One file to brand them all...if you will. 😜 quarto.org/docs/blog/po... #Quarto #Posit #datascience #R #python

Re-posting this for my new followers 👋 Posit could use your help! Please add ANYTHING that causes you frustration in your data-focused job. bsky.app/profile/ryjo...

Data folks, I need your help! (for an internal project I'm working on) In one sentence, what frustrates you most in your work? Examples: "My data is too big for my laptop!" "My model takes forever to train!" "My packages are out of date!" Add as many as you like in the comments 👇

Free learning y'all. Grab some coffee and get to it! #rstats #python #datascience #posit

R in Production, r-in-production.org, is a new book that will help you put R into production, coupled with (in the near future) new tools to make the process less painful. I'm working on this with @thomasp85.com , @gaborcsardi.bsky.social, and @hfrick.bsky.social.

Join me tomorrow while I dork out on PDF generation using #Quarto, and its #typst integration! pos.it/team-demo

I've been working on a Quarto blog to showcase my training videos—it's not really a blog but more like a "content organizer." The default blog styles didn't quite work for me, so I dabbled with custom listings in Quarto. I've never used ejs before, but wowsers is it cool! quarto.org/docs/website...

We’re thrilled to share that @hadleywickham.bsky.social has been honored with the 2025 ASA Statistical Computing and Graphics Award by the American Statistical Association. This award highlights Hadley’s contributions, particularly his development of #RStats tools. Congratulations, Hadley!

I'm always so impressed with what people can do with #Shiny. Congratulations to this year's Shiny Contest winners! posit.co/blog/winners...

I'm liking the og #rstats #datscience vibes #bluesky is bringing!
