Want to use the #mars #earth algorithm for either #regression or #classification well you can do that with my #R #package `healthyR.ai`, just use the hai_earth_data_prepper() function :)

library(healthyR.ai)
library(dplyr)

# Create a tibble from mtcars with only the numeric columns
mtcars_numeric <- mtcars %>%
select(where(is.numeric)) %>%
as_tibble()

regression_rec_obj <- hai_earth_data_prepper(
.data = mtcars_numeric,
.recipe_formula = mpg ~ .
)
regression_rec_obj
get_juiced_data(regression_rec_obj) |>
head(1) |>
glimpse()

# Create a tibble from the Titanic dataset
titanic_data <- as_tibble(Titanic)
head(titanic_data, 1) |>
glimpse()

classification_rec_obj <- hai_earth_data_prepper(
.data = titanic_data,
.recipe_formula = Survived ~ .
)
classification_rec_obj
get_juiced_data(classification_rec_obj) |>
head(1) |>
glimpse()

@governa kool, I hope it will also be distributed as #flatpak #package. It would have the same limitations as flatpak version of #gnomeboxes but for the most basic usage of spinning up #virtualmachine without any special network interfaces or other stuff that requires privilaged user intervention.

I feel pretty happy with my custom #emacs #dashboard / #welcome #screen

It is solid, fast, simple and useful for my needs, and I think it might fit your needs as well! Also feel free to suggest improvements :)

Debian releases APT 3.1!

New day, new release. Debian has just released the first minor version of the APT 3.0 package manager that featured columnar display for listing packages when installing one of them. This improves user experience and makes things more readable than before. According to the official release tracker, this version of the package manager has been submitted to the unstable branch of Debian, which means that it’s only available on unstable versions of Debian for now.

Ubuntu will use this version of APT to bring several improvements to the package manager. The new solver, which was introduced in APT v3.0, is now used in Ubuntu. It introduces the “apt why” and the “apt why-not” commands, which worked similar to their Aptitude counterparts. Those commands give you a report as to why a particular package management decision was taken.

You can also include and exclude packages from a specific repository to limit them. For those who are using dselect, you can now use the HTTPS repositories to download and install packages interactively, all with just a terminal. Finally, APT V3.1 brings general improvements and bug fixes.

Learn more about this new solver here.

Meanwhile, distributions that are Debian-based will take a bit of time to make it to the next version, including Ubuntu 25.10 which will reportedly switch to APT 3.1 from the older 2.x series.

Same as yesterday, but this time, making a 2D Discrete Random Walk with my #R #Package #RandomWalker

A scatterplot titled "2D Random Walk Non-Outliers Only." It displays multiple colored linear paths representing random walks in a 2D space, constrained to non-outlier data points. The x-axis is labeled "Cumulative Sum X," and the y-axis is labeled "Cumulative Sum Y." The paths are laid out in a grid-like pattern with varied colors.

A scatterplot titled "2D Random Walks with Outliers Highlighted." It shows multiple colored random walk paths in a 2D space, with outliers prominently highlighted in bold red dashed lines. Non-outliers are displayed in lighter colors. Black dashed horizontal and vertical lines indicate threshold boundaries for outlier detection. The x-axis is labeled "Cumulative Sum X," and the y-axis is labeled "Cumulative Sum Y."

A scatterplot titled "2D Random Walk Outliers Only." It showcases only the outlier random walk paths in a 2D space, displayed in various colors on a white background. Black dashed horizontal and vertical lines mark the threshold boundaries for outlier detection. The x-axis is labeled "Cumulative Sum X," and the y-axis is labeled "Cumulative Sum Y."

A screenshot of R programming code written for generating 2D random walks, analyzing outliers, and plotting results. The code uses libraries such as RandomWalker, dplyr, ggplot2, and tidyr. It calculates confidence intervals, identifies outliers, and generates three types of plots: non-outliers, outliers, and highlighted outliers. The syntax is color-coded, with comments explaining each step.

i used it to install `filespy` for a psuedo-lsof tool to watch filesystem access on the wintendo. i survived the whole thing.
