Today, @lizhare.bsky.social gave a spectacular talk at the Big Team Science Conf about the peer review software resources developed by @ropensci.org and how she learned about them during the Champions program.

The slide with the unexpected benefits is my favorite part of the entire presentation!
Unexpected Benefits

Learn new packages and functions,
Learn clearer and more efficient approaches you can use in your own work,
Enjoy the puzzle of figuring out and following the authors' work,
Introduction to object-oriented data structures helped in a future project,
Ways of collaborating apply to private consulting project.

First, congratulations Yani! Second, if you want to know how to  verbally describe data visualizations well, use this as an example.

1/2 I have been doing events for the last 32 years. In that time, I have registered 496 events, of which 267 (53.8%) have been online. I have six different roles. "Speaker" is the most frequent, with 19 participations as a keynote speaker.
Line graph showing total events by year from 1993 to 2025. The trend begins at approximately 2 events in 1993, remains relatively flat with minor fluctuations between 2-8 events through 2015, then shows dramatic growth starting in 2016. Events increase from about 12 in 2016 to a peak of 61 events in 2022, with some volatility including a notable dip to 19 events in 2018. After the 2022 peak, there is a sharp decline to 23 events by 2025, even this can increase as the year is still going. Horizontal bar chart showing total events by role. Speaker has the highest count at approximately 219 events, followed by Teacher with about 159 events, and Organizer with 89 events. Chair and Teacher Assistant each have significantly fewer events at approximately 15 events each, while Jury has the lowest count with 1 event.

2/2 I also identified 15 event types that can be grouped in teaching & training (192), presentations & talks (191), large-scale events (58), and community & collaborative events (56). These events have been mainly in Spanish, then English, and only 11 in Portuguese (I hope to increase this number)
Horizontal bar chart showing total events by type, ordered from highest to lowest. Course dominates with 192 events, followed by Invited Talk with 73 events, and Regular Talk with 63 events. Conference has 35 events, Panel 25, Podcast 22, Keynote and Exhibition each 19, Coworking 13, Community Call 12, Lightning talk 10, and Book Club 8. The three smallest categories—Hackathon, Sponsor Talk, and Contest—each have fewer than 5 events.

Doing spring cleaning in my #GitHub repo:

- deleting all the repos that I created during my teaching

- deleting all the unused forks

- adding topics to my repos so I can filter and find them more easily

What do you do to maintain a tidy GitHub?

R-Universe by @rOpenSci is an extremely useful project.

My latest R package, {pmtiles}, is not a good fit for CRAN as it bundles a pre-compiled Go library.

With R-Universe, I was able to get installable cross-platform binaries built in hours!

Running an effective Code of Conduct committee is essential to building a welcome, inclusive community. But it's demanding, complex work to do well. So @ropensci.org's team is sharing our CoC management materials with an open license. We get better by learning from each other.

#DLDday is coming, so I’m starting a thread over a few days.

DLD (Developmental Language Disorder) is all about spoken language. Words and sentences are tricky for people with DLD. And people don’t grow out of it.
