I agree that X/Twitter lost a fair number of research communities. 🦋Bluesky has become so vibrant in the last few weeks and the old #rstats gang seems to be back there! My username there is @emitanaka.org if you want to find me! Or get started with the starter packs there!

Exciting to see that `edibble`, and many #rstats packages, now has a DOI! A reminder that **research software is a first-class research output**, so please cite it when you use it! @ARDC_AU captures this well in their report: zenodo.org/records/6378082

Isn't "machine learning-based science" + ML for "small data" essentially #statistics? Also remember "one hot encoding" is just dummy variables... Some of you should talk to statisticians... & stats folks, some of you should talk to non-stats folks more.. science.org/doi/10.1126/scia…
