@nrennie.bsky.socialReposted by @helenajambor.bsky.socialIt's October 1st which means there's only 1 month until the #30DayMapChallenge 🗺️
@secretiveinsect.bsky.socialReposted by @helenajambor.bsky.socialThough, it’s disappointing, we also need to know how many women were available to have received awards. If no women were in those particular fields, no women could have been awarded.
@helenajambor.bsky.socialLOL
@helenajambor.bsky.socialI am SO over even checking who wins. Same, same every year. And knowing more how people are vetted and petitioned, I also realise that it is a LOT about self promotion and connection, beyond just science.
@helenajambor.bsky.socialWonderful one - also, I want to re-read my Calvin and Hobbes.
@helenajambor.bsky.socialsame!! Ich dachte schon da ist wer gestorben und das ist die Hommage, aber zum Glück nicht...
@helenajambor.bsky.socialI thought so too, feels like a hommage ...I immediately worried it might be an obit for Bill Watterson passed, luckily no!! (also explain xkcd did not pick that one up)
@jperkel.bsky.socialReposted by @helenajambor.bsky.socialThis is neat: a #webR - based (WebAssembly) package (📦) to convert an RStudio workspace into a static web page that allows anyone to try your code without installation. #rstats 🧪 blog.thecoatlessprofessor.com/posts/introd... (ht @richvn.bsky.social)
@helenajambor.bsky.socialThat may be useful for publishing...
