@recology_ also yay for private funding.
@hspter Lists are great for those situations. Does it have to be a data.frame?
@ctitusbrown @kaythaney Actually I am working on something new. Stay tuned!
@LizatPLoS Great! will do.
@kara_woo I’m down. You got deets @LizatPLoS?
mbeisen Kudos to @NASAJPL: after I posted Curiosity papers from behind @sciencemagazine paywall, they posted them on JPL site jpl.nasa.gov/news/news.php?…
@DrLabRatOry indeed. And not ending anytime soon.

@polesasunder Yep!!! absolutely. :)
@Impactstory wow!!! many congrats!
@Protohedgehog Your data are heteroscedastic!
@mySocietyIntl Yep! Back around the 23rd - 30th. Will drop you a note once I set my dates.

@hylopsar That’s what you get for buying Bluth company chairs.
@fperez_org @Microsoft wow.
@ethanwhite We should have invited you to the ropensci call this morning.
@nhcooper123 @sjGoring Remotely is a definite plus. I have a uni cluster so less of a need to have this interface.
@sjGoring @nhcooper123 Unless you run things over time on a really cheap AWS micro instance.
@sjGoring @nhcooper123 Will try to summarize in blog post. Been great so far. But currently useful mostly for teaching. Not ind use.
IanMulvany that 17 minute conversation with @_inundata was inspirational and very high bandwidth
@sjGoring I’ll be back here mid-day on the 12th. You around that evening or following day?
@rmounce They’ve had it for a while. That’s how I read them.
@John4man @johnmyleswhite Either of you coming to Mozfest?
@vsbuffalo ham hocks from the Davis coop were always the best.
@ficaryl I will a bit. Leaving the last hour for discussion so can definitely delve into it more then.

@jennifergardy @soozaphone I return on the 20th. Boo for missing you by a day. PS: Found some great pics of you from foo. sunglasses x 5.
@ficaryl Awesome! I’ll drop you a DM next week once I’m down there.
@xieyihui @recology_ @ramnath_vaidya I read them. Good way to quick get a lay of the land. How else do you acquaint yourself w/ new package?
@ficaryl Helping teach a bioinformatics course from 1-3. Will be in uni melb after. There from 4-8.
@F1000Research Nice!
@ficaryl Are you around Melb next week? Would be great to meet up if so. I’ll be there for about a week.
@recology_ The code blocks on your F1000 article also suck. Screenshots? bleh.
@hspter Sure did. I signed up for a PhD at United Nations uni and bought real estate in AZ because I trust your personal recommendations!
@ramnath_vaidya @recology_ like FornatR
@hspter yep
@cboettig @invisiblecomma @recology_ +1
@KTInvasion @recology_ Don’t work for me either.

@polesasunder Why not try it with your next ms? Listing a github repo in a paper is fine.

@MLBrook some of us are going for drinks right after this plenary. Join us if you’re free.
@hadleywickham big bummer. Prior commitment. :(
@MLBrook I recommend some alcohol.
@OKCon how many people actually showed up for the conference? And what is the gender breakdown? #OKCON

@kaythaney @MatToddChem @gvwilson We don’t tailor core topics much but we do tailor level to match audience based on pre-bootcamp survey.
@MozillaScience @teleyinex @gvwilson No book in the works but all our material are open & CC-BY. A full SWC R bootcamp coming together soon.

Stodden: How do you know if your analysis is right? We have to be skeptical of steps involved in extracting knowledge from data. #OKCON
Stodden: Verification and validation are the foundations of reproducibility. Comp Sci today doesn’t generate reliable knowledge. #OKCON
Stodden: All other benefits (reusability etc) are a corollary to sharing that perfect scientific record. #OKCON
Stodden: Article about sci is not scholarship itself but merely the advertisement. ship is full suite of code, data, & figs. cite Claerbout
Stodden: Computation has become so central to sci research that deep intellectual contributions are now encoded in software. #OKCON
Stodden: open data and code crucial to science. Goal is to perfect the scholarly record and not much else. #OKCON
