   And people pay for this? #Stata maps: https://www.stata.com/support/faqs/graphics/spmap-and-maps/
   vs. R-based #Maps with #tmap https://github.com/mtennekes/tmap #R #opensource

      @mycroft i'm using stata at work. besides hating it to my bones, i found out last week that stata has a ridicolous amount of artificially restrictions.

      an example:
      you can only run scripts < 3501 lines and/or< 135001 bytes at once. their reasoning is that bigger scripts can hardly be debugged... could they please leave such decisions to the statistician / script-writer?!
