Eldest turns 16 to tomorrow, and requested tacos all day, so doing breakfast burritos, and I'm not get… ★ 4 I'm shortly about to generate ~6100 QC/QA reports for datasets in Metabolomics Workbench, and thank you so much for the rich HTML reporting ecosystem in #RStats + #QuartoPub that means I can easily have callouts and tabsets in my report to… ★ 3 Got this absolutely amazing Rosalina graphic tee, and a #BricksAndMinifigs gift card for Father's Day this year. Very content nerd. ★ 4 In this house, we now celebrate flag day! Or at least the 16yo interpretation of flag day. ★ 1 #RStats {targets} hive-mind.

The eldest (15) decided to get us "china" for our anniversary. I laughed a lot at our "china". (Those who might not know, fine china or dishes are a relatively common anniversary gift). ★ 6 When I did an analysis on 711 metabolomics datasets, I did a foolish thing, and all 6105 starting datasets got their own `targets` object, and I'd drop them as needed. The `targets` cache was huge, even with a bunch of 44 byte NULL files. … ★ 4 Its not fancy, and I'm sure not even close to authentic in any way, but they were pretty tasty and filling. But eldest with bowel issues doesn't seem to like black beans, period. Maybe I need to find a bean salad recipe, or something with … This spider got inside our townhome today. Got them safely back outside. What a cutie! ★ 2
