I could have wrote this myself.. I may or may not have done the same. Tbf I was sick all day and didn’t each much anyway so 🤷🏽‍♀️

dplyr 1.2.0 dplyr 1.2.0 fills in some important gaps in dplyr's API: we've added a new complement to `filter()` focused on dropping rows, and we've expanded the `case_when()` family with three new recoding and re...

dplyr 1.2.0 is out now and we are SO excited!

- `filter_out()` for dropping rows

- `recode_values()`, `replace_values()`, and `replace_when()` that join `case_when()` as a complete family of recoding/replacing tools

These are huge quality of life wins for #rstats!

Promotional image for webRios showing the app icon and an iPhone displaying the R console. The console shows example R commands with syntax highlighting: basic arithmetic (1 + 1), a print statement saying 'Hello from iOS!', a warning message in orange reading 'Uh-oh, I'm in the Apple-verse?', an error message in red with the HAL 9000 quote 'I'm sorry, Dave. I'm afraid I can't do that.', and a plot command.

webRios is live. #rstats on your iPhone and iPad.

I showed native R compilation on #iOS last week. Shipping it is another story (thanks, GPL). This version uses #webR 's #WebAssembly build instead. Different tradeoffs, but this one clears App Review.

See, you *could* get colored filament, orrrr you could paint your things! My husband has an airbrush station set up next to his printer 😂

I got my husband one for his birthday last week! One thing he told me was that the filament that came with his machine sucked and he was happy I got him a separate pack. I also constantly see him looking up specs. He’s now printing us random stuff for around the house 😂

I fight to try to get there everyday 😭

This resonates so hard 😭

Life's been extremely difficult lately, especially when your progress and efforts... feels under constant assessment. I made this to let myself code with no pressure. I'm calling it 'release.' A reminder that even in the darkest phases, there's light on the horizon. Messy Code: tinyurl.com/dy7zc2mz

Absolutely! Just give me a ping when you'd want a review. I'm going to fork it now.

I think this is awesome! I am seeing a ✨tiny✨ bit of coverage that's missing on codecov. Are you open to getting a hand with that? Or is it not covered because you're still thinking through some things? If so, I'd be more than happy to help. But if not, I think it's great as is honestly!

I had a similar comment after testing it out. Beginner Meghan would have needed something more obvious to catch my eye because "it's just a warning, it's fine" used to be my motto way back when lol 🙈

A festive digital illustration features the blue R logo wearing a red Santa hat with white trim on the left. To its right stands a green Christmas tree made entirely of curly braces arranged in a triangular shape. White and light-blue %>% pipe symbols float across a dark blue, starry background like snowflakes. A speech bubble above the R logo says “Ho Ho Ho! 📦” in red text. At the bottom, white text reads: “R Package Development Advent Calendar 2025” and below it, “25 Days of Coding Magic • Dec 1–25.

I like to give small, subtle hints when I am not happy with something I'm working on.

Yesss. It’s so great. I think I also have an extension (maybe?) that allows you to create PRs and label/assign/etc. right there in the IDE 😍

I just need 1 more dataset for #TidyTuesday 2025! Thank you so much to those of you who have submitted datasets!

The submissions have allowed me to make progress on a long-planned huge maintainability and usability improvement for TT, coming in 2026!
