In a few weeks I’ll be giving one of this year’s Ihaka Lectures. This is a big honor for me, I have to say, as I’ve has benefitted so much from R and learned so much from its community of developers and users over the years. This year’s other lecturers are @nrennie.bsky.social and @robjhyndman.com.

tourr: Tour Methods for Multivariate Data VisualisationImplements geodesic interpolation and basis generation functions that allow you to create new tour methods from R.cran.r-project.org

Super excited to get this at my door today! Ursula Laa and my book on exploring high-d data and models is in print! Book website is www.routledge.com/Interactivel... if interested I think my 30% discount code might work for you - msg me. Time to update dicook.github.io/mulgar_book/ too! #rstats

This is really, really good.

Bill’s early work had an incredible influence on my career, especially his studies on perception and coplots. It’s so sad to hear that he passed away. May his memory be a blessing.

#rstats ANNOUNCE: The ASA John M. Chambers Statistical Software Award to Harriet Mason (Monash Univ) For ggdibbler, an R graphics (ggplot2 add-on) package that enables rich visualization of uncertainty across raster, contour, stack, and spatial plots.

My favourite learning from #ASC2025 was from @robjhyndman.com The goal of forecasting isn't always to be correct, it can be to influence policy If you're successful, the forecast is probably wrong now and that's good
