"Everything I know is from Jenny Bryan"—Sharla Gelfand
- as spoken at rstudio:conf 2020
At the rstudio::conf 2020, Sharla Gelfand [@sharlagelfand] gave a presentation with the title "Don’t repeat yourself, talk to yourself! Repeated reporting in the R universe", "showcasing opportunities to stop repeating yourself and instead anticipate the needs of and communicate effectively with your future self (or the next person with your job!) using project-oriented workflows, clever interactivity, templated analyses, functions, and yes, your own packages." (Video is here.)
In the Q&A section (at 18' 22" of the video), someone in the audience asked "A lot of your recommendations seem to be software engineering principles. Would you recommend R users have formal education in this field to prevent troubles?"
Sharla responded with "No, I have no training in software engineering at all. Everything I know is from Jenny Bryan. So I think you're all fine."

The Rmd file EIKIFJB.Rmd uses the {hexSticker} package to generate a laptop on fire EIKIFJB sticker.
