Quotes of the Week

The #Jaguar has lost at least 20% of its home range in #Pantanal biome, which has been burned more and more. The animation below was made using #moveVis and shows some Jaguars moving in an area which was burned a lot this year. That's sad! pic.twitter.com/0QT9D8AHN9

My girlfriend baked an #rstats cake for my birthday and it's like the best ???????????? pic.twitter.com/skSfwsQYTm

Today's #rstats FYI: function overwrite only happens the first time you load a package

select(sleep, ID) # select not found

library(dplyr)
select(sleep, ID) # OK now

library(MASS)
select(sleep, ID) # error

library(dplyr)
select(sleep, ID) # still error
