Giving the AI of {gtsummary} by @ddsjoberg.bsky.social a try! Starting with AI generated study guide of this package - let's see how much it helps! Do we even still need static cheatsheet anymore? How do we make AI with R package vignette, any good tutorials? #gtsummary #rstats #gt #posit

Check out the release of {gtsummary} v2.50. My favorite feature is the AI chatbot on the homepage. It does a fantastic job of answering simple and complex questions about the package. (RAG model powered by kapa.ai) 🤖 www.danieldsjoberg.com/gtsummary/in... #rstats #gtsummary #datascience

I don't know how many Canadian leftists chose to vote strategically, and held their nose and voted for the Liberal party, but if you did, sincerely, from the bottom of my heart, thank you. Canada will remain a safe, welcoming place for our trans friends and family.

Sometimes when building a minimal reprex for a bug, you discover that you were the bug all along. I assume this is what Kafka was on about.
