Hey #rstats folks, we at @cynkra_com build R+quarto docker images for quite some time. If you are in need for rocker/r-base + quarto, these might be helpful to you: hub.docker.com/repository/doโ€ฆ Also includes variants with quarto pre-release.

If there's demand, we could also add arm64 images.

Allows Github and anonymous posts (with much more options if wanted). Slim, self-hosted. A bit of custom CSS and et voila!

In the meantime, I'll try to refocus on finding out what I want to do and where I can help while enjoying the process at the same time. I haven't done much ML or R development lately but rather devops-related things.

Last, I'd like to explicitly point out that none of this has to do with the finalization of my PhD at the end of last year. The intersection of these events is completely random.

Last week, after ~ 6 years, finally the disputation of my doctoral thesis happened. For the last 2.5 years I worked on it besides my full-time job at @cynkra_com whenever I found time. Big thanks to my supervisor @geobrenning for the tremendous support! #PhDone

PSA: before upgrading to #macos Ventura, deprecate your old RSA-1 ssh key and replace it by an ed25519 one with ssh-keygen -t ed25519 The new openssh version in Ventura might reject your old RSA key in some situations otherwise! confluence.atlassian.com/bitโ€ฆ โ€“ at Zurich, Switzerland
I am a fan of vertically centered slides. The CSS class (of the next tweet) does this. To apply it in a #quartopub presentation, wrap the text (most often slide body) in :::{.๐šŸ๐šŽ๐š›๐š๐š’๐šŒ๐šŠ๐š•-๐šŒ๐šŽ๐š—๐š๐šŽ๐š›} <๐š๐šŽ๐šก๐š> ::: CSS class definition ๐Ÿ‘‡๏ธ
