I LOVE this from @jasminedaly.bsky.social 's presentation at the Salt Lake City R User Group! I think it applies to all developers in the age of AI, not only consultants and those who use R.

"My value as a consultant is not defined by the R code I write. It is defined by the strategic clarity, values, and outcomes I help my clients achieve through the tools & systems I create!"

Balloon wall art inspired by the ggplot2 hex sticker. The display features a hexagonal frame made of black balloons, filled with white balloons inside and surrounded by a background of light and dark blue balloons. A line graph with black balloon segments and round coloured nodes runs across the centre, and the word “ggplot2” is spelled out in black balloon letters below the chart.
