John Fox (1947-2025) An obituary of R Foundation member John Fox by Peter Dalgaard. www.r-project.org/doc/obit/joh... #rstats
In memoriam Tomáš Kalibera (1978–2026). www.r-project.org/doc/obit/tom...
"What if instead of a broad landscape of people making and maintaining things where we reuse, link, and credit work done elsewhere, we just LLM launder a sloppy copy into our monoliths and make everything reimplement everything but worse"
Closing the loop on last week's Portable #rstats post. Hadley reached out, the conversation went well, attribution is fixed, and the ecosystem gets maintained Portable R builds. Longer update on the blog... blog.thecoatlessprofessor.com/posts/closin...

Looks like #quarto v2 will usher in new webassembly playground based on a scene grab from Posit’s in office post
Portable R 4.6.0 is now live for Windows and macOS. No installer, no admin, no system changes. Just extract the archive and run. macOS (Apple Silicon + Intel): github.com/portable-r/p... Windows (x64 + ARM64): github.com/portable-r/p... #rstats #macos #windows
I have blocked exactly one person from a project on GitHub. Strong contender for #2 today: a Posit Senior SWE who pointed Claude at my portable-r-macos / portable-r-windows scripts, opened a PR, and linked my work as "existing art." That's not reference. That's laundering. Worse no signing on mac.
We're almost there! Pyodios is in App Store review for #iOS. #Python (via #Pyodide) on your iPhone and iPad with matplotlib bundled. Soon you can write notebooks at the coffee shop and plot on the train. While you wait: pyodios.caffeinatedmath.com
