I thought this was about real player.
R is a lifesaver because it is free. Totally sucked learning it but I am glad I have that skill under my belt.
This might be the first science meme that has completely and utterly flown over my head. I have zero comprehension here.
Toys “R” Us is a chain of toy stores which went bankrupt and shut down all US locations in 2018, although it has recently returned to the US as of 2022.
R is a statistics focused programming language which sees wide use in the field of data science.
The meme features characters from the cartoon “The Regular Show”. In the first panel, all the characters are together, interestingly one character for each letter in Toys R Us. In the second panel, only the character representing the R remains, indicating the transition from childhood (toys) to adulthood (statistics). The science part of the meme is mostly just the statistical analysis reference.
I am sorry you have to use R, you can perhaps enroll in a support group
I did but that turned out to be yet another stats course in R.
I thought this was science memes! What’s statistics doing here?
DISGUSTING
At least the first item in your list is called number 1 like a real human.
As a programmer I now feel compelled to troll everyone by convincing the project to change the indexing to 0
Too many people confuse offsets and indexes. R users have it figured out.
Haha, wait 'til you find out about how statisticians name and label competing hypotheses; good luck sorting that out!
Ho, and Alternate Ho?
Null hypothesis, as in the data shows no evidence to suggest that there is any statistical difference between the 2 outcomes. At least, thats how I understand it.
Null Hypothesis (H0) – This can be thought of as the implied hypothesis. “Null” meaning “nothing.” This hypothesis states that there is no difference between groups or no relationship between variables. The null hypothesis is a presumption of status quo or no change.
Alternative Hypothesis (Ha) – This is also known as the claim. This hypothesis should state what you expect the data to show, based on your research on the topic. This is your answer to your research question.
I stand by my derogative statements
Ho with a significant p-ness is everyone’s favourite.
😂 ok only just got the pun…
Null hypothesis always bugged me coming from a software background. Why the double negative! Just confuses me!
But Toys R Us still exists. They’re in every Macy’s and still have a few brick and mortar stores as well.
Nostalgia is not about the actual thing itself, but the person you were when you enjoyed that thing.
At least in Germany I have not Seen one in a while.
Damn really? I was just thinking about it the other day and thought they were all gone. By Macy’s, do you mean a standalone store? Or do they have a small section in a mall store?
They just recently opened up an entire toys r us store at the Park Meadows mall in Colorado
Yeah I can walk into the Macy’s next door essentially and they have a Toys R Us section with a Geoffrey statue and everything. Meanwhile there’s another mall not too far away that still has an open Sears and the Macy’s in that mall also has a Toys R Us section. They also had a brick and mortar store in my area during the holidays last year that will presumably reopen during the next holiday season as well.
If you dislike R, give Julia a try!
I have a good friend like you. Smart guy, talks about R but mostly about Julia.
Decided to write his own transpiler. Dropped off the face of the earth. I wish I had more friends like that
Are the two events related?
They’re adjacent
Actually I like it Its fun if it works ;P
unfortunately, julia has been adding “agentic code” to their codebase for a while now.


Developer here, I seriously don’t know what to think of the modern tech in general. I reject LLMs because they’re not trustworthy so all of my searches are your typical search engine, stackoverflow, etc. The internet feels so empty, you’d rarely find anything from the last couple of years that’s not AI-gen.
This is making believe that we will reach a point when our tech stack docs are only cooked into LLMs and I fucking hate that. I would rather go back to the 1990s over this.
The problem is it’s an arms race! Stop treating LLMs like their existence is the problem and start viewing it via the lens of war:
The enemy has lots of badly-behaving LLMs! Marketers, scammers, and lazy management are equipped with Big AI brand LLMzookas that are sending hallucinations our way!
Captain: “So what do we do about it?”
Soldier: “Captain, there’s FOSS LLMs that we can deploy! We can use them to defeat the enemy’s bullshit slingers! They can be used to search the web on our behalf to filter out hallucinations and advertisements disguised as content! We can set them up to monitor enemy deployments and analyze intelligence to find the truth and stop propaganda in its tracks!”
Captain: “…but can FOSS AI generate boobs‽”
Soldier: “Sir, FOSS has already surpassed commercial AI in that front of the war.”
Captain: “We need to deploy FOSS AI ASAP!”
What’s the advantage of either of them compared to a jupyter notebook?
Jupyter notebook isn’t a language, it’s a tool for running interactive sessions, typically with Python, but in principle with any language. I’m fairly certain people run Julia in Jupyter Notebooks.
As for the advantages of Julia versus Python, arrays are native types, so they interface better across the entire language. It’s also shockingly fast in comparison, it compiles the code at runtime, so the longer the program runs, the faster it is.
If there is a use-case for R that Julia or Python can’t do, I haven’t seen it. I personally don’t see the point of writing code in R when the Python and Julia are more broadly useful to learn.
rinternet explorer?
It’s the R programming language, typically used in statistics: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R_(programming_language)
ruh-roh!

I have “Я” in my language. So it is relevant for me. I just see nothing good in that.
Lesson 1 - Plot every pair of variables in this file as a scatter plot using Excel. Calculate every pair of correlations possible from the same file in Excel.
Lesson 2 - ggpairs and why R is amazing
