Quotes of the Week
A quick tweetorial on using #RStats to hit an API!
— Benjamin Wolfe (@BenjaminWolfe) March 30, 2022
I used the {httr} & {jsonlite} pkgs to migrate 789 journal entries from my old platform to Notion. It's a great case study. I'm going to show you my building blocks. 🧱
You can use what I learned for any API project!

If you spot a CRAN or Bioconductor package without URL and BugReports links, but find they actually live on GitHub, GitLab, ..., please reach out to the maintainer and ask them to add those fields to their DESCRIPTION file
Woah, okay #rstats world I may have to just make the .Rmd -> .qmd switch...@quarto_dev is looking amazing.

I’m giving a talk about ggplot2 & its community and I'd love to include a selection of extension packages. What are your favourites? Please vote and add new options at https://t.co/Hatpc55KDu #rstats

Questioning coding 101. I've come to dislike "else" statements in #rstats or other code. It tends to require you to scroll up to figure out what the "if" is and then puzzle over what "else" means.
— Zev Ross (@zevross) March 30, 2022
I generally prefer a default followed by an "if" or a couple of ifs. Thoughts? pic.twitter.com/D6hj58rOSo
