  @julian@activitypub.space @julian@fietkau.social thanks, most of the computing I do is numerical so as much as I try to keep up with how fedi works it's just not part of my day to day thought process and it's very educational to see threads like this one!

  RE: https://toot.cat/@infotroph/116613969871467886 This language is great for pulling people away from SAS lock in but some of the design choices really try to mimic that Excel UX where to do X there's that one check box everybody has to remember to check *every* *time*

  Chemistry is "the central science" Physics is... whatever the megalomania is claiming today... Computer science isn't even a science Biology is amazing, only reason I'm not dead yet #Epidemiology is the science of "you put *what* in your body now???"

  #targets #rstats question: what's the current package folks use to create targets that actually generate other targets with the {targets} package? I have some repetitive target creation I'd love to automate...

  @uecker @david_chisnall @dysfun yeah I get that... I think these language differences are worth talking about and there's s lot of experience involved in judging them. Fwiw I use R mostly for work and I absolutely hate how loose the rules are. I almost never write a personal project in R. I actually enjoy putting together projects in c++ and rust because I spend less time chasing bugs in running code.

  @stevegis_ssg I'm going to disagree with one little piece of this: weight (and skin surface area) serviced by the circulatory system has a mechanistic link to blood pressure. All the other stuff still makes it worse, etc... so I'm not disagreeing with the rest, but in a few situations (eg post weight loss excess skin removal) we have direct evidence of improved blood pressure. Slight chance the literature on this has changed since I read it so that's a caveat too.

  @akareilly those are real issues, just not the ones *the guy* is interested in... how can he make time for actual racism when there's AI boosters to worry about.

  @passwordsarehard4 @fj oh God, I must've blanked that out of my brain, I think 350s are the biggest I regularly see but I know what you're talking about with the campers. Ugh.

  @mattblaze@federate.social @SteveBellovin@infosec.exchange these are levels of dark humor I wasn't prepared to see from you specifically, although I understand and it makes sense, it really doesn't sound like the kind of thing that'll go well
