@lakens @deevybee Happy to help, I've battled Bookdown enough to have appreciated a lot of help from others in the past. Re the figure, do you use Windows? If so, maybe it's case insensitive and was working just fine for you.

@grimbough @deevybee And good catch to find the missing figure - well spotted, how did I miss that? Really all very appreciated. Will do a final check ,accept the pull request, and have added you to the thank you's in the intro!

Re: bookdown.org/dorothy_bishop… In theory bookdown should produce pdf & ebook, but I get cryptic error message: ! File ended while scanning use of \BKM@entry. <inserted text> \par l.119 \begin{document} If any genius can help, I'd be grateful. Code is on github.

@lakens @deevybee Looking closer, I think you already have the relevant settings in _output.yml You can just do: bookdown::render_book(output_format = 'bookdown::pdf_book') I had to remove \urlstyle{tt} from preamble.tex - will make a pull request for you.

@grimbough @deevybee It worked!!! Thanks so much! I had been using the bookdown command from the dropdown menu before - but that consistently failed. Only chapter headings are off - I might explore what I do wrong there (it is all chapter 0).

@lakens @deevybee If it helps my curiosity got the better of me, so I checked out github.com/Lakens/statist… and tried out out myself. Looks pretty good! (Hopefully that's the right book🤞)

@deevybee @grimbough I am too scared to try to fix this once again, and fail - if I get some free time I will give it a try!

@deevybee and also switched escape=TRUE for some of the kable() tables. Characters like % in a LaTeX table will break the rendering if it isn't escaped.

@deevybee FWIW the following gets me a PDF version of your book after I've made a few changes to file name capitalisation. bookdown::render_book( output_format = bookdown::pdf_book( latex_engine = "xelatex" ) )

Great opportunity to keep up-to-date with Bioconductor, and meet other users and developers. Also, Ghent is beautiful.

Since we're updating Modern Statistics for Modern Biology to use #QuartoPub, I thought I'd detail how I added anchor links to our equations. msmith.de/2022/10/19/lin…

@jo_rainer @its_JPhilipp First time for everything😬

@its_JPhilipp Indeed - and nobody got lost up there in the mountain 🏔☁️💨😅

Wednesday afternoons at #CSAMA2022 are for hiking! What a successful social program 😎

@robinson_es I don't know what a luggage sleeve is, but otherwise these are pretty great fjallraven.com/uk/en-gb/bags-…

May be looking for a unicorn here, but does anyone have a recommendation for a tote bag that: Can fit a 14” laptop (not much larger than that though) Has a luggage sleeve Zips close Shoulder or crossbody straps Is at least little feminine

Abstract submission closes 31st May. Travel scholarships are available; apply as part of the abstract submission process.

@WeAreRLadies Also a big shout out to @jo_rainer who designs some awesome stickers for our events. Here's my home town of Heidelberg in hex sticker form

@WeAreRLadies There's some pretty great ones in the Bioconductor collection github.com/Bioconductor/B… Here's a few animal themed packages/stickers

Any #RStats users know what setting I need to change to not have blurry, drop-shadowed, code in the new syntax highlighted help pages? This makes my eyes hurt. Currently using RStudio with the Cobalt theme.

@CedScherer @R4DScommunity @rstudio To me the explosion in v4 doesn't look quite so dramatic compared to e.g. v3 in March 2020 using raw counts. Those alternative labels are included as is. They make up the bottom 4 colours in the stacked bars, and don't really look significant to me.

@grimbough @R4DScommunity @rstudio Overall it matches quite well I'd say, only the last peak is more pronounced from a quick comparison. I have assigned all release, latest, and devel versions to the most recent major version, did you do the same?

#30DayChartChallenge | #Day9 | #Statistics What comes to my mind when talking about stats?! Well...... #rstats Who can explain to me why R version 4 saw such a steep increase in downloads? Was checking the data again and again but seems valid. Source: cran-logs.rstudio.com

@CedScherer @R4DScommunity @rstudio Would be interested in seeing the smoothing. I see a similar but different pattern in the the counts. Drop in proportion of unique IPs suggests automated process responsible for increase downloads, maybe CI or similar. Code: gist.github.com/grimbough/2d68…

@grimbough @R4DScommunity @rstudio Likely due to the slight smoothing i have applied. I should adjust the label position, thanks!

@NicolaMTomas @wolfgangkhuber @FlorianIngelfi1 @mt_morgan @drisso1893 @jo_rainer @CSoneson @const_ae @its_JPhilipp Yep, you can find more details at csama2022.bioconductor.eu

@wolfgangkhuber @FlorianIngelfi1 @mt_morgan @drisso1893 @jo_rainer @CSoneson @grimbough @const_ae @its_JPhilipp Is there a website?

@TimPollington @Bioconductor @rdrrHQ That Github org is for projects actually managed by @Bioconductor (infrastructure packages, website, build system etc) You can view the package source at: code.bioconductor.org/browse/nondete… Looks like there's only one vignettes and that's also rendered at: bioconductor.org/packages/relea…

@henrikbengtsson @Bioconductor Agreed, although you can now look at this to get a quick overview code.bioconductor.org/browse/CGHcall…

I wish @Bioconductor wouldn't bump pkg versions if nothing changed Although CGHcall hasn't changed since 2.38.0 (2017), it's been bumped every 6 mth, 2.38.0→…→2.57.0 … You have to check source-code history to find out if something actually changed during this period #RStats

Do you have some #rstats scripts that you've always wanted to make into a @Bioconductor package, but the gap from scripts to a package seems daunting? Apply to the new mentorship program for the chance to get help making that leap.
