Hadley Wickham

The tidyverse is a collection of R packages designed to facilitate data science. My team and I have been working on it for nearly 20 years, and in this talk, I’ll share some of what we’ve learned about software development and open source community building in that time.

This presentation explores the complex and often contradictory nature of large language models (LLMs) in data science, acknowledging the simultaneous excitement and apprehension that we feel toward these technologies.

Please join us for our first Posit keynote, where we’ll tell you about our mission, our products, and some of the exciting things we’ve been working on over the last year.

(Due to unforeseen circumstances, Hadley Wickham presented this talk "slide karaoke" style, from materials prepared by Jenny Bryan.) In R, the fundamental unit of shareable code is the package.

Each new SciPy brings even more tools for data visualization and for building data-rich scientific applications and dashboards. This BoF brings together maintainers of Python tools for data visualization and building apps to help make sense of this complex landscape for users and to highlight new developments, trends, and opportunities.
