In this week’s episode, we visit with Julia Silge, a Data Scientist and Software Developer at RStudio. Julia shares her exciting career journey from physics and astronomy, to data science. A key theme that arises, is Julia's work to build thriving software communities. This includes ground-breaking research through the Stack Overflow Developer Survey to understand disparities between members of the community, through the use of survey methods and demographic data. Julia also discusses the latest trends in open-source software, associated business models to sustain development efforts over time, and her own contributions to the open-source community with the text mining package "tinytext" in R.
