Great talk, and I think I speak for a large group of people when I say I am incredibly thankful for the resources & work this company has been putting into the R ecosystem, but also Open Source tools for DS/DA in general. Broadening the scope certainly seems like a logical move & I hope posit will continue to thrive 👍 Keep up the good work
Thank you for made R usable and approachable for us. I work with process improvement and I'm not a programmer (I love this guy %>%). I regularly use SQL in oracle databases, excel spreadsheets and BI tools. The ability to search for answers was enhanced by the tools developed by you because for me, *tidyverse* is very similar to SQL. Thank you so much for that.
This was a very inspiring speech and I really appreciate your work. You found a good way to monetize Open Source and I like the philosophy of Posit to stay independent and not falling for the trap of growth at any price. I am pleased to see more and more companies and organizations who leverage the same spirit and build a strong foundation of an accessible and open software ecosystem, that helps building communities and drives progress for all of us. I wish you all the best for your mission and I am looking forward to what's to come in the future. Thank you.
Could not DIS-agree more. The Tidyverse takes a natural language approach: Subject Verb Object or data %>% function() ... outcome. I've taught it to beginners whose native languages are Chinese or English. They run with it. As for the old school Onion code of nested functions -- forget about it.
@@americanexile You take all the languages: the arguments of a function/method are inside the function (data, other arguments..) No need for SQL synthax: SQL is more appropriate. This old school that you quoted makes you arrive at this knowledge. A great tool like the data frame becomes "deprecated"

I've been using R since university time, hope R will be better!!
They destroyed the simplicity of R imposing the pipe %>%, tibble, tidyverse etc...I recommend them to read python script : easy to understand
There is no requirement to use those things you mention. Base R (pre-tidyverse) is not going away. And you can do everything in it.
