- In 1981, when I was ten, I visited Christchurch, New Zealand with my parents. I loved birds, especially albatrosses, and learned that tantalizingly close—360 km to the south—was the royal albatross colony in Dunedin. It was not meant to be that trip. But 44 years later, I finally made it happen.

- Ok, getting pretty excited for this. Can't WAIT to show you how you can do (almost!) your entire GH collab workflow (issues, PRs, Reviews) directly in Positron. Isabella and I will collab in realtime and show you the whole process. We'll even show resolving merge conflicts if we have time! #rstats

- Capable but error prone research assistant vs oracle sums up the bsky vs X views of Claude Code for social science divergence really well
- I think the oracle view makes sense for app dev where the bottleneck is “does it fail loudly” vs in social science where the bottleneck is “can I explain this to a seminar audience if they ask how I did XYZ.” the moment I say “I have no idea but Claude said it made no mistake” my career is over.

- Just working on a paper, writing with Quarto in Positron IDE. Trying the split view of a file. Have a method section where I'm writing code for figures and exlaining analysis - and the results where I'm plotting figures with captions etc, both open next to each other. Neet.
