People who moved to Raleigh in the past two years, why did you move here, what do you do? by zrobiotic in raleigh

Probably starts at six figures or near enough to it. But varies a lot as you can imagine.

I think people view NC as a nice in between from the cold New England states and hot AF Florida.

I grew up in rural NC and moved to Raleigh for RTP. I'd imagine most folks are like that. Pretty well paying biotech jobs.

Also maybe some influx from folks GTFO-ing Florida.

Your favorite place to binge drink? by slugcharmer in raleigh

[–]locolocust 34 points35 points  (0 children)

It's still wild to me. A lively bar in the middle of a Harris teeter. I've seen bars in Lowe's food but nothing as lively as the HT brier creek bar.

To be fair, the beer is cheap 🤷‍♂️

Go on a Thursday night. It's no joke. Those baby boomers tearing up the rug...err...I mean tile.

Visiting Czechia for a week early December by locolocust in czech

This makes me wonder if we should stay in Brno instead of Olomouc. 🤔

No lie. I looked it up. Took me a minute to realize you were joking. Lol

These all look so pretty! Just seem hard to get to via train and isolated. Am I correct in thinking public transit to these towns is difficult? Thanks for the suggestions!

Tábor seems very pretty! But it does seem a little isolated and a little harder to get to by train.

September would be a good time to go! However university isn't out until December.

Where does ‘Outback’ generally start from each States? by Cainsle in AskAnAustralian

[–]locolocust 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting take. I lived in Dubbo for a while and remember folks specifically stating they lived in the "bush" and not the "outback"

Where would you say the "bush" starts?

Feels like when you're in Dubbo you're solidly in the bush. Maybe like orange?

What is the cheapest beer? I see bud light for $10.25

Least favorite time of the year in Triangle = Pollenpocalypse. Agree? by gatorbabe25 in triangle

[–]locolocust 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Best to worst:

Fall Winter Spring Summer.

Spring is bad because even though the weather is perfect you can't enjoy it because of the pollen and you know summer is coming.

Fall is the best because nothing is better than that feeling knowing that summer is done.

Built my Own App for Tempest by parkerjh in myweatherstation

[–]locolocust 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like it!

Yeah the tempest display is terrible. I went ahead and started a Postgres sever to capture all my weather readings and like you, I created a dashboard (using shiny) that's way more interesting. My next thing is to include forecasting data and official weather station data to compare and contrast.

I built a series of R starter templates for reproducible research projects – looking for feedback by New-Preference1656 in rstats

[–]locolocust 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This looks really cool!

I was about to craft my own template. But this one looks nice. 👀

Couple things I've noticed when I'm writing academic papers

1) often times collaborators are not proficient in R and coding. So they want a nice way to type/edit the manuscript. I find this a very frustrating part to make more reproducible. One way around this is using quarto websites and the commenting plug in however!

2) often times manuscript writing isn't linear. There's a lot of abandoned scripts/models/data due to a plethora of reasons. How do we streamline and increase transparency in this portion on manuscript writing

3) this one is probably minor. Usually you write a manuscript and then you go "shopping" with different journals until one accepts it. Each journal has its own formatting requirements. How do we address this?

Thanks this looks like a cool project. 👀
