rstudio::conf - Lightning talks from conference attendees

Description: Most of us didn't go to rstudio::conf 2018 (https://www.rstudio.com/conference/) so we're having the PDX folks that did go talk to us about a talk they did or stuff they found interesting at the conference. Should be fun!

Speakers:

• Jessica Minnier - Assistant Prof Biostatistics at OHSU - http://jessicaminnier.com/ - talk: "What They Forgot to Teach You About R" (see Jenny Bryan's workshop materials https://github.com/jennybc/what-they-forgot) - slides ( http://bit.ly/rstudioconf-pdx )
• Evan Kaeding - Cooladata - https://www.cooladata.com/ - talk: "Plumber: Building REST APIs in R"
• John Smith - Learning Alliances - http://learningalliances.net - talk: "Computing on R" ( http://learningalliances.net/2018/02/computing-on-r/ ) - sildes (https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1Nv7DEAH-G-YQgf5eCuSAoaRrTAFNkkz3JE-mHrkj2XI/edit#slide=id.gd9c453428_0_16)

We'll have more details on their talks later.
