Replying to @kjm2
@kjm2 and I just published our "Top tips to statisticians communicating through the media, especially in the time of COVID-19". link.medium.com/IbDJx9kktdb Hoping that other statisticians might learn from all our mistakes

I'd like to make a shout-out to the people who run the
CRAN (central R repository)---
especially Kurt Hornik, Uwe Ligges and Brian Ripley.
They are doing a tremendous service
for the scientific community, enforcing and maintaining the
quality standards for R packages.

Thanks to their (volunteer!) work, the more than 2 million R users worldwide
can seamlessly access the CRAN collection of over 10,000 R packages.
Thank you for your invaluable work.
Might be good to also consider how this could map to structured error classes. xitter.cf/hadleywickham/status/9…
I’ve been working on a style guide for #rstats error messages at style.tidyverse.org/error-me… — we’ll be using this for new messages and slowly updating existing across the tidyverse. Hopefully also useful for your own code!
