🦆 My new R package {avilistr} is live on CRAN! 🎉

The first unified global bird taxonomy (11,131 species) is now accessible to #rstats users. I built it this weekend after Cornell Lab's AviList release last week!

So cool!

I just started using @supabase.com for a client project and I’m having such a fun time setting things up!

It’s so user-friendly and intuitive ✨

I absolutely *love* that @simonpcouch.com mentioned using Google Sheets to easily supply input(s) and target(s) for evaluating #LLM quality {vitals} 🧸

Sometimes selecting right-sized solutions means deviating the "serious" data science techniques to get things done, creatively!

🔖 Here is another lovely morning read about leadership in consulting: samlandenwitsch.substack.com/p/the-reluct... and it fits the theme of a book recommendation that I recently received too 'Choosing to Lead Against the Current': bookshop.org/p/books/choo...

The Reluctant Leader

Why Independent Consultants Need to Embrace Leadership

Yay 👏

I used to think using {renv} in projects wasn’t worth the headache as a solo developer, but after a recent conflict w/ GitHub Actions vs local package versions have converted me into an renv fan! 📦✨

Also trying a new watercolor technique with white crayon outlines 🎨

Gotta love a tech-savvy school. Our preschool just uses carrier pigeons 😭

Re-investing in myself can be:

- ☕️ coffee & reading
- 🕊️ birding
- 📝 writing blog posts
- 🚴‍♀️ riding my bike
- 🧑‍🎨 Sketching

I don’t plan out each morning block of time. I often wake up (before my kids) and give myself permission to indulge in some restorative time ☮️

Highly recommend!

Jasmine Daly @jasminedaly.bsky.social · Aug 4

One of my new favorite routines as a consultant & business owner has been to block off 30 mins in the early mornings called: PAY MYSELF FIRST 💰

While I spend a considerable amount of time on client projects, I’ve enjoyed carving out some time to re-invest in myself.

Hex stickers have arrived! 🎉

I'm prepping the first round of mailings — if you want one of these shiny (yes, shiny and #rshiny — pun 100% intended) hex stickers, make sure you're on the list:

Really looking forward to it!

The last time I was in NYC and/or at any conference in person was in 2019 at a Fastly tech summit, so saying I’m nervous is an understatement 😂

Jasmine Daly @jasminedaly.bsky.social · Jul 24

Whose going to the New York Data Science & AI conference next month?!

I’m going to be there IN-PERSON and I’d love to connect with other folks 😀
