As we're all thinking of Cold War Spy dramas now, I can recommend the 1970s BBC tv series versions of two of John le Carré's spy drama: - Tinker, tailor, soldier, spy - Smiley's people (Watch them in that order - makes more sense ) With Alex Guiness even! m.youtube.com/@audiencehoo...

Cats will hear a noise you cannot hear, stare at something you cannot see, and then leave you alone in a room with it.

Wenn man sich in den Boulevard-Redaktionen mit derselben moralischen Entrüstung gegen Faschismus einsetzen würde, mit der man gegen die apokalyptische Horrorvision von Vermögenssteuern wettert, wäre unsere Demokratie niemals in Gefahr geraten.

webrarian is a new R package. It turns a folder of R scripts and data into a static website where R runs in the visitor's browser, with no compute server and nothing to install. blog.thecoatlessprofessor.com/posts/introd... #rstats #webr #webassembly

A card for the R package webrarian. Large text reads "A folder in. A website out." On the left, a small card lists a folder named lab-01 holding lab.R, setup.R and a data folder. A red arrow points from it to a browser window that shows a scatterplot of car weight against miles per gallon with brick-red points. The address coatless-wasm.github.io/webrarian is on the card.

The page is a small workspace, with an editor, an R console, your files and your plots. Visitors run your script, change it, and share their version as a link. Their edits stay in their own browser. There is a live demo to try. coatless-wasm.github.io/webrarian/de...

Beside it, a browser window shows the workspace: a script named lab.R in an editor with Run, Run All and Share buttons, an R console under it with a summary table, an Environment panel listing a data frame named cars, and a scatterplot in the Plots tab.

This is how you can visualize gene expression data in #tidyheatmaps 🤩 jbengler.github.io/tidyheatmaps #rstats #dataviz #phd
