    I recently leveled-up my ad-blocking game by hooking my #pihole up to a #tailscale network so I can have it blocking ads on all my devices even outside of my home network! I used to assume that Tailcale would be scary to set up and only for someone with a lot more experience and time on their hands than me, but it was surprisingly easy. They even had a guide specifically for this use case: https://tailscale.com/docs/solutions/block-ads-all-devices-anywhere-using-raspberry-pi

    *Finally* got around to testing new {purrr} and {mirai} features on the #UniversityOfArizona #HPC and it is such a big step forward for researchers who would prefer not to leave their R comfort zone like myself. Here&amp;#39;s a gist that you can run from an interactive session to launch SLURM jobs as workers and use them for parallel computing with `purrr::map()`: https://gist.github.com/Aariq/d52a0d861e5a2c90540548caa47021af #rstats

    I went to my local middle eastern market today, not remembering that it is Eid. A little like Trader Joes the day before Thanksgiving except everyone was smiling and in a good mood. Anyway, Eid Mubarak to all who celebrate
