Just based on your comment, I can promise you I have payed attention to the conflict less than you and have less of a 'dog in the fight' in terms of supporting a side. I just noticed your comment begging the question regarding mor

You appear to be making the case that the 65% statistic of Gazans killed by Israel shouldn't be alarming since it merely is converging on the demographic makeup of the population. I'd argue that it is very alarming when military c

But the other contemporary lineages were mixing more than Thorin, and relatedness broadly correlates with geographic proximity [1]. But the contemporary later lineages in the area split off from samples as far as from Siberia and the Caucas

Yes several weeks. But no contact is a little surprising for fifty generations, let alone fifty thousand years.

Of course, you are totally fine. Even with that interpretation, shorthand slang pronunciations have definitely become enough of a part of common parlance especially on the internet that it is quite a stretch to invoke potential racism. Hell

Me as well. There is a lot of hype around 'regenerative' agriculture and livestock now as well, but one really needs to see detailed life cycle analyses to know the full footprint of a food choice

R has a pretty particular use case though, Python use for statistical programming/data analysis would be an apples to apples comparison. People doing a coding 101 course in Python don't really count against the R user base.

Once you are using the tidy paradigm, it lends itself to efficient plotting with ggplot2. Plotting with base R would require reshaping your data. So I think insofar as dplyr becomes a popular default it makes sense ggplot2 would be in lock

That's only true IMO of the in-IDE plots, but actual exported PNG or vector graphics I think base R plots are pretty perfect, other than perhaps the default colour palette

I learned r too long ago so I am pretty fluent writing readable data wrangling code in base R. But I'm a biologist first, in my community I see the value dplyr adds in making it approachable for people who need to do some basic stats b

It really isn't, at least with the author's clarification that the arrow isn't the path. It might sound like it if you misread the instructions as 'travel due east' as the parent comment did.

Impossible to follow if you are thinking Euclidean geometry, but a great circle is a straight line in spherical geometry. The earth isn't a sphere, but it is much closer to one than it is a plane.

I read it after your caveat was added, but I didn't find it intentionally misleading, from the very strong response (which is doing what it accuses the post of doing by claiming it reads 'travel due east') I get the feeling s

And I don't think younger statisticians, those that will have 30+ years in the career tank, are now favouring Python over R (a few, Julia perhaps). So I don't imagine new stats functionality dropping in R first is going to change
