Thank you for that, good to see there's an elegant Julia solution! The last time I was using 'pipes' with Julia, I think I was using DataFramesMeta. I also really like this interactive gadfly plot - reminds me of Matlab, but better. It's been a little while since using Julia, so I'd forgotten about the pre-compiling thing, but generally this code looks pretty nice and clear.

I used to use DataFramesMeta.jl, but eventually I found that the mini-DSL that DataFrames.jl has created is really powerful and not overly verbose. Now, going back to the Tidyverse's syntax makes me feel a little uneasy, like there's just too much magic going on behind the scenes, even though I used it for years with no problems.
