My Erdős–Bacon number is 10 (if you stretch definitions a little) and for some reason I blogged about it: blog.kudusch.de/post/98 #ErdősNumber #BaconNumber #SixDegreesOfKevinBacon #blog

Over the next two days, the political communication division of the german communication association holds a conference on the theme #democraticResilience. Kicking things off is Josephine Lukito, taking about “digital surrogates” in the context of right wing extremism movements. #polkomm26

If everyone's doing it, why shouldn't your #terminal get its own year in review? #terminal_wrapped: A little #rstats #quarto experiment that reads your .zsh_history, .bash_history, .fish_history, or any other shell history file and produces an html report […] [Original post on social.tchncs.de]

A screenshot of a webpage with the title "Terminal Wrapped". The first thing visible is a colorful column chart showing terminal usage over time.

A column chart with the title "Your Top Commands in 2025". The chart shows that 'l' is the most used command, followed by 'git status' and 'cd Desktop'.

A chart that shows at what time of day the terminal was used. It shows a distribution of usage across weekday and time of day (0–24 hours). There is a gap between 3 and 10 o'clock and low activity on weekends.

Dachte erst, das wäre die Info-Mail meiner Bank, dass mein Dispo überzogen ist. War dann aber doch nur #Spam (werde reich mit AI, irgendwie).

If you fit into intersection of @alfredapp and Tot users, this might be for you: github.com/Kudusch/totflow An Alfred workflow for @Iconfactory's #Tot: Open a specific or an empty dot, or press alt to clear or cmd to append text to your dots (cmd+alt lets you append without a newline).

A screenshot of an Alfred window, with a list of results showing 4 dots (aka notes in Tot) and at the top the option to open a new dot.

Gotta say, at least this #ScienceSpam mail has found the perfect wording for what I (of course) always do at conferences: Unleash my insights

A screenshot if the subject line of an email saying: Prof. Tim Schatto-Eckrodt - Unleash Your Insights at Machine Leaning-2026|Madrid|Spain. Highlighted in yellow are the words "Unleash Your Insights …"

I recently saw a kind of stacked donut/pie chart that visualized nested count data (e.g. a sample description with two relevant categories, like favorite ice cream and gender) and wondered how I'd do that in #rstats. So, if you ever want to make a plot like […] [Original post on social.tchncs.de]

@tante @blog At least right now, if looks like the followers weren't migrated over.

A screenshot showing three accounts by @tante, each with different numbers of followers. The @blog@tante.cc account has the least followers (9).

At least my #rstats and #quarto error messages are educational, now that I setup the list of common misconceptions in my .Rprofile: github.com/Kudusch/common_misconcep…

A screenshot of the error message of a quarto document being rendered. The error is about a misnamed argument name in element_text(). At the bottom of the error message is a bit of text, framed by lines of asterisks and titled "Common Misconceptions" that reads: "There is no evidence that Viking warriors wore horns on their helmets; this would habe been impractical in battle."

Ich trage auch mal etwas zum Hashtag #tourdedgpuk bei und dokumentiere die Busfahrt durch das volle Berlin. #dgpuk #DGPuK2025

A couple days late for #xkcd’s traditional second Tuesday in February for reading the #Wikipedia article “List of common misconceptions”: Add a random common misconception to your #rstats startup message! Instructions, data and code: github.com/Kudusch/common_misconcep…

A screenshot of an R console in a terminal with the usual version information followed by the text:

The Chart (supposedly) Missing From ALL Spreadsheet Software* in #ggplot2 (with a little help from dyplr): gitlab.com/-/snippets/4773076 #rstats #minutephysics #tidyverse *https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5zBg9pH_6bE

A diagram showing a plot with temperature in °C on the y-axis ranging from -10 °C to 30 °C and on the x-axis the three letters A, B, and C. Over each letter is a segmented column, depicting the temperature ranges “summer high to annual high”, “annual high to mean”, “mean to annual low”, and “annual low to winter low”. B has the smallest temperature range, while A and C both have high variability in temperatures, A has the lowest temperatures over all, and C having the highest peak temperatures.
