- #rstats 📦 {ergm} 4.11.0 is now on #CRAN. It looks like I never posted the highlights for the 4.10.0 release, so I'll just list them together. As always, major changes at cran.r-project.org/package=ergm... . Enjoy!
- Initial release of #Rstats 📦 {piecemeal} for wrangling large simulation studies is now on #CRAN . A demo here: cran.r-project.org/package=piec... . I believe that brings me up to 10. 😅
- #rstats 📦 {latentnet} 2.12.0 is now on #CRAN. It implements a long-requested feature for fitting count networks (interactions, co-occurrences, etc.) using a binomial model. Different pairs of actors can now have different binomial "trials". Full news at cran.r-project.org/package=late... .
- Looking forward to this!
- Excited to announce the Social Network Summer School 🇨🇱! 📅 Jan 12–16, 2026 | Santiago, Chile Keynotes: @estebanmoro.bsky.social & @krivitsky.net @insna.bsky.social & @netscisociety.bsky.social Apply by Oct 5 👉 snlab-cl.github.io/summerschool/
- To work around Whova app's apparent inability to actually tell you what talks (not sessions!) are coming up next, I've extracted the list of all upcoming @sunbelt2025paris.bsky.social talks sorted by the talk's (not the session's!) start time: krivitsky.net/sunbelt2025/ . Feel free to share around.
- Version 1.1.3 of {ergm.ego}, a #rstats 📦 for #ergm modelling of #egodata, is now on #CRAN. This is mostly a bugfix and optimisation release. Details at cran.r-project.org/package=ergm... .
- #ergm 4.9.0 #rstats 📦 is on #CRAN . This release improves robustness, introduces or improves some valued ERGM terms, and provides a more flexible way to specify parameters and target statistics. As always, see cran.r-project.org/package=ergm... .
- We're #hiring! This is a tenure-track #job in a #spatial #statistics cluster at #UNSW Maths & Stats. Applications close soon (1 July, Australian time!), so please share this with the spatial statisticians in your life! See external-careers.jobs.unsw.edu.au/cw/en/job/53... for details.
- Next #rstats 📦 up on #CRAN is {statnet.common} 4.12.0. It is, as always, a hodgepodge of functions and methods used throughout the #statnet project packages. @mbojan.sciences.social.ap.brid.gy contributed to this release. Release notes are, as always, at cran.r-project.org/web/packages... .
- Reposted by Pavel N. KrivitskyCalling all #rstats friends in Australia/Oceania! Exciting news! Fonti Kar (@fontikar.bsky.social) and I are forming a "C Study Group for R Contributors" in 2025. It's like getting skills to help build the Millennium Falcon of programming languages! 1/n
- While setting up yet another large #simulationstudy in which some replications result in an error, the total runtime is not completely predictable for an #HPC #parallelcomputing job, etc., I drafted an #rstats package for wrangling such simulations: github.com/krivit/piece... . Feedback appreciated!
