  1. @mdsumner am I being silly or would all of this be solved already if we could serialize the vsicache and reuse it between sessions?

  2. If you use and I'd love to know what you think of this:

    `duckdb-r-editor` a Positron extension for duckdb SQL code highlighting and completion within R files.

    github.com/belian-earth/duckdb

    A big chunk of this has been vibe coded, I know this gets a bad rep on mastodon but this extension makes writing SQL in R so much nicer (for me at least) so in theory it'll mean I can use less AI from here on ...
    ✌️

  3. So today I vibe coded a /vscode extension to detect SQL strings (in R scripts) called by {DBI} and other common packages with functions that call SQL strings, it then provides code completion/suggestions. It also has super buggy code highlighting. Oh and it only really works with . It's so rough right now but I feel like it would be amazingly useful if it worked well, does anything like this already exist / can someone build a stable version of it please 🤣 ?

  4. Hey fam! If anyone fancies kicking the tyres of this in-development R package for downloading data, I'd love any feedback. Still a bit rough around the edges but keen to improve it however possible! github.com/Permian-Global-Rese
