Since I've retired, I'll be blogging more about #bioinformatics and most likely #rstats - and to start it all off - here is the first blog post on the #quarto based blog (converted from Wordpress).

#Rstats problems: Did you ever think that the dots for dotted lines are a bit too far apart per default? TIL that it's super easy to change this.
In #ggplot2, simply try something like:
scale_linetype_manual(
values = c(a = "dotted", b = "11")
)
The '11' means: 1 point for a dot, 1 point for a gap. Find out more here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/25788945/how-to-define-more-line-types-for-graphs-in-r-custom-linetype

#rstats folks should think about supporting our friends at the #Python Software Foundation, who turned down a $1.5M NSF grant rather than cave to the administration's inquisition against diversity, equity, and inclusion. ❤️

The rOpenSci Way: Open Science and Open Source Only With Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Accessibility.
"The open in open source and open science means more than how we share code or data. It means knocking down the barriers to participation so that it is open and accessible to all, that everyone can join in the benefits and joys of science, and removing our blinders to the humanity of those we previously missed"
