Anaconda (and these days miniconda) has been my go-to for getting Python and the scientific/data science software stack installed on my computer (even on my Arch linux machine!).

If you were at rstudio::conf you may have seen me walking around with my conference badge and wondered what everything is.

I’ve had a lot of time to think about my time as an RStudio intern.

I’m at the R/Medicine conference (no it’s not a Reddit thing) and got to help Alison Hill with her R Markdown for Medicine workshop.

I’ve been asked a few times lately about whether one should learn R or Python.

I have a love-hate relationship with Git.

Since I’ve joined SDAL, the lab has undergone a few infrastructure related changes, mainly how applications are run on the servers.

Project templates provide some standardized way to organize files.

As a PhD student who already has a Master’s degree, it’s safe to say that I’ve been in school for a long time.

Just got back from the 3rd annual NYC R Conference this past weekend.
