I'm thinking about trying a new thing to trick myself into interacting with more humans at #positconf: I'm going to give myself a checklist of quests (basically a scavenger hunt for people). I'll need to find someone who I've known online for at least a year but haven't met irl, someone who worked in S/S+, someone who has done that week's #TidyTuesday, etc. What else should I put on my list? #RStats #introverts

Good news! I'll be attending Posit::conf(2023) in Chicago this year! And the best part is it's NOT as a speaker 😅 which means I can actually enjoy and experience the conference this year without the pressure of giving a talk constantly lingering in my mind.

Well, I have taken things into MY OWN HANDS! I’ll be bringing these to #PositConf in a few weeks:

I've just booked my flights for Posit conf (formerly RStudio conf) in Chicago. It's my first visit to the city since 1998.
Come join me. I'll be assisting in the workshops for Shiny for Python as well as DevOps for data scientists.

Careful; that sounds like a challenge. ;)

It's settled y'all! Only a new virus outbreak can stop me from coming to #positconf in Chicago now.

My talk was accepted :D

#positconf #workshops

you asked for help on your pitch to #positconf talk submission from @maelle and end up having a WHOLE OTHER thing you are talking about.

Best type of brain storming! 😍

#positconf talk proposal submission deadline has extended to 7th April!

Thank goodness as I'd fallen behind!

Writing a proof-of-concept graphics device and then forking ggplot2 and patching R itself does take longer than you'd think!

#RStats

Hey friends! Anyone thinking about submitting a talk to #PositConf but feeling a bit nervous about recording the 1-minute video submission? --- this post is for you 👏🏼

Thank you Jesse Mostipak for sharing tips last year and giving me this idea! I went through the process of submitting a talk last year and found that very helpful!

Are we allowed to submit 2 talk proposals to #positconf ?

Probably not...

Quick poll on what you would prefer to hear about more if I got accepted to present.

Note: the second option refers to "demoscene" demos - making computers do interesting things. Usually set to music. As an example, see the demo running on a 40 year old C64 (1MHz 6502, 64kB ram): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KCmUIcdG5wo

I have a great(¹) idea for a workshop for #positconf2023 but I think the proposals have been all done already!

Suffice to say - the world is missing out on some premium content(²) !

Save it for 2024?

I should put some notes together for a talk submission... What do people want to hear about? They certainly didn't want to hear about real-time graphics and game programming in R(³) at #rstudioconf2022 ;)

1. Cool & useless
2. Premium = niche
