For #tidytuesday week 2026-04-07 looking at the repairability of household items via a repair cafe dataset, I compared repair completeness between categories (i.e., whether a repair was completed or partially completed).

It's amazing to me just how fast the ocean heats and cools every year in just a couple of months. This seems obvious but seeing it on a graph like this makes it somehow seem really cool.
For #tidytuesday week 2026-03-31, looking at coastal ocean temperatures in Nova Scotia, I was mesmerized by the seasonal pattern displayed in my initial geom_point exploration plot that I had to keep it. Temperature generally goes down with depth.

The thing that changed my life was learning I could use `results = asis` with a for loop to produce an analysis using every unique value in a column automatically. The amount of time this saves is insane!
For #tidytuesday 2026-03-17 looking at Norwegian salmon mortality, there seems to be a clear temporal pattern when excess deaths occur for each species.

Bear with me as I go through a backlog of #tidytuesday after being on vacation.

Bro, I got trolled by your name and for like 30 mins I thought Bluesky admin was making political skeets ๐ญ๐ญ

A bit late on #tidytuesday. Looking at week 2026-03-03, it seems female Hermann's tortoises are healthier on the mainland compared to the beach and pleateau regions.

For #tidytuesday week 2026-02-03 looking at an edible plants dataset, I was curious about relationship between sun and water requirements; I thought the more sun, the more water. However most edible plants like a lot of sun, but only a moderate amount of water.

#tidytuesday week 2026-01-27: Brazilian companies. Not an economy or finance person but wanted to try my hand at a Lorenz curve and a ridgeline plot to show some of the data.

dplyr 1.2.0 is out now and we are SO excited!
- `filter_out()` for dropping rows
- `recode_values()`, `replace_values()`, and `replace_when()` that join `case_when()` as a complete family of recoding/replacing tools
These are huge quality of life wins for #rstats!

Time is a healer. Hang in there buddy
Not all departments are listed, and departments are still coming up with number of positions to eliminate, so this more or less just a snapshot.
A cleaner version just showing numbers of employees being laid off.
The Government of Canada recently undertook measures to eliminate positions to save money (Comprehensive Expenditure Review). Using data they released, I showed the number and percentages of employees to be eliminated either by attrition or by layoff.

Side note, I did not know APOD existed prior and I will be bookmarking!! Super cool.
Made with #ggplot and #ggside. Was looking for an excuse to mess around with ggside and I feel like it fits nicely on a heat map.
For this week's #tidytuesday, in reading some of the #APOD posts, I noticed the Sun was mentioned a lot. I was curious to see just how much the Sun is mentioned. Turns out, the Sun is mentioned in 1/3rd of posts. Increasing over the years, but relatively stable month-to-month.

For last week's #tidytuesday, I was curious about language diversity among prominent natively spoken languages in Africa. #Cameroon has the highest number of natively spoken languages, which is unsurprising given their vast (250-600 estimated) language diversity overall.

Bit late on the last #tidytuesday of 2025 looking at Christmas novels. I created a word map using the top 100 non stop words and a word sentiment tree map using the nrc lexicon. Positivity, joy and trust appear in higher proportion than other text datasets I've looked at!

Did anyone else get absolutely destroyed by this yearโs COVID/Flu vaccines?
I once had an interview where they asked me all questions that would have been answered by my resume. It was so strange.
Yes
I feel bad that I randomly stopped my series. I got sick and then life happened :(
We need this asap
Yes
