1/n #WomenInSTEM 🔭🧪⚛️ 12 December 1921: Henrietta Swan Leavitt, a great pioneer of modern astronomy, passed away. Her name is not familiar to most people and she is certainly not as recognizable as Galileo, W. Herschel, or E. Hubble, even though it ought to be.⤵️

I participated in a faculty panel a few weeks ago in which senior (ahem) faculty gave advice on careers in academia by pretending luck had very little to do with our success. One piece of advice riled me up, in which it was argued that a reason for their success was their ability to say no. 1/

Here is a cool little function for R that lets you check if all of the loaded packages are actually necessary for the code that follows, letting you cut down on unneeded packages. Really helpful for grading student code too, since this is a common error! funchir::stale_package_check('mycode.R')
