It's hard for me to publish my code in healthcare services research because most of it is under lock-and-key due to HIPAA concerns. I can't release the data, and so 90% of the work of munging and validating the data is un-releasable. So, should I release my last 10% of code where I do basic descriptive stats, make tables, make visualizations, or do some regression modeling? Certainly, I can make that available in de-identified ways, but without data, how can anyone ever verify its usefulness? And does anyone want to see how I calculated the mean, median, SD, IQR?...because it's with base R or tidyverse, that's not exactly revolutionary code.
