coolbutuseless<a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/RStats" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RStats</a> hivemind: can we now just assume that ZStandard library is available for CRAN tests and all standard test platforms? Can I just add it as one of the "SystemRequirements" in my package DESCRIPTION and link to the library in my C code?

Luis ApiolazaI like these two little books: Bulmer 1979 Principles of statistics and Fox 2009 A mathematical primer for social statistics. They are small format, soft cover, with unpretentious design. They deliver what they promise. And Bulmer is the same guy of Bulmer Effect in quantitative genetics. Fox is the creator of the car R package and author of Rcommander. <a href="https://mastodon.nz/tags/stats" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#stats</a> <a href="https://mastodon.nz/tags/rstats" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#rstats</a> <a href="https://mastodon.nz/tags/genetics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#genetics</a>

Jim GardnerI got nerd sniped by <a href="https://hcommons.social/@petejones" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@petejones</a> . It is possible to have Neovim running in a container and use it as an IDE with R REPL, Quarto HTML preview, and a plot viewer. Possible, but not exactly beautiful.

R ConsortiumKamil Sijko, organizer of both the R Users and R-Ladies Warsaw groups, recently spoke with the R Consortium about the evolving R community in Poland. He discussed industry collaborations with companies like AstraZeneca and Appsilon, and he also highlighted a recent open-source project on patient randomization, demonstrating how R can be effectively integrated into modern software ecosystems, particularly in medical applications.<a href="https://r-consortium.org/posts/microservices-randomization-apis-and-r-in-the-medical-sector-warsaws-data-community-in-focus/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://r-consortium.org/posts/microservices-randomization-apis-and-r-in-the-medical-sector-warsaws-data-community-in-focus/</a><a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/rstats" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#rstats</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/opensource" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#opensource</a>

EamonPulled off a lazy <a href="https://social.coop/tags/RStats" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RStats</a> hack today: I put a simple anonymous function inside a call to `base::Vectorize` to avoid writing a loop inside my function definition. It felt like cheating, but now that it's worked for me once I'm almost certain to do it again.

Anatoly TsyplenkovHey, a tricky (or maybe not) <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/rstats" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#rstats</a> question: how can I add an R package dependency as “Imports” if that package is not available on CRAN, but present on R-Universe? For example, I see that {tidypolars} by <a href="https://mastodon.social/@etiennebacher" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@etiennebacher</a> depends on {polars}, but the DESCRIPTION file looks normal to me. Does the Sys.setenv(NOT_CRAN = "true") call before install.packages() do the trick? Both packages are on R-Universe
