00:13:51 Daniel Jin: +1
00:13:51 Morgan Grovenburg: Me too!
00:14:53 Ryan Woodbury: It looks way better in the book down compared to Google Slides
00:14:56 Carlo M: reproducibility
00:16:17 Catherine Miller: thanks, that was helpful
00:17:25 Mike Haugen: The R markdown chapter in R4DS goes over benefits: https://r4ds.had.co.nz/r-markdown.html
00:22:30 shamsuddeen: New approach for installing packages: https://github.com/r-lib/pak
00:26:20 Ryan Woodbury: YES!!! I just used it!
00:26:36 Carlo M: Syntactic sugar of ifelse(is.na(certification), certification_1, certification)
00:27:04 Marina: ^^ yeah, I had been using ifelse, but this looks neater
00:27:05 Ryan Woodbury: Trying to combine cohort data where each cohort has different variable names.
00:30:42 Alyssa Ibarra: According to Help, coalesce is from dplyr
00:30:55 Layla Bouzoubaa: janitor
00:30:59 shamsuddeen: coalesce is from dplyr?
00:31:09 Layla Bouzoubaa: janitor::remove_empty()
00:31:14 shamsuddeen: Oh yah, I see it
00:31:25 Carlo M: Yup, coalesce is dplyr
00:37:22 Layla Bouzoubaa: If you do in the ?stats::filter console, it is for time series data
00:37:32 Layla Bouzoubaa: He’s correct
00:37:43 Alyssa Ibarra: Thanks for that clarification!
00:39:55 Morgan Grovenburg: Always <-
00:40:00 Mike Haugen: ^^
00:40:14 Ronak Patel: -> gives me anxiety
00:40:28 Carlo M: When I get lazy, I end up using `->`
00:40:43 Morgan Grovenburg: My reason is to keep = straight
00:40:48 Isabella Velásquez: same! I only use -> when I don’t want to scroll all the way to the beginning of a pipe XD
00:40:54 Layla Bouzoubaa: Second Ronan’s point
00:41:01 Layla Bouzoubaa: ronak*
00:42:53 Isabella Velásquez: I once spent a lot of time before realizing I used ‘ instead of `
00:46:40 Carlo M: Morgan is right. The {stats} library would get masked when library(dplyr) is called
