Thank you CRAN for smashing through another 1k barrier: now over 17k well-curated, always installable packages for us #rstats users. It's huge. And we appreciate it.
This morning's new #rstats helper function: show all _compiled_ dependencies of a package (as Kurt, Uwe and I correctly suspected an Rcpp rev.dep. issue would go away under fresh builds).
Now in littler as new example 'compiledDeps.r'. Easy thanks to @rdatatable and `tools`.
How it started How it's going
I modified the intra-day SP500 tracker by @joshua_ulrich, the refactored code is in my `dang` package.
More changes to come incl a 24hr version for ES and alike (no free data though).

With special thanks to Walter Somerville, Mattias Ellert and Benjamin Christoffersen (all three twitter-less?) for contributed PRs.

Periodic reminder that @marutterstat is doing us #rstats users on @ubuntu a huge favour.
Relying on @rdatatable and my #Rcpp-based `RcppAPT` package, we see that we now have well over five thousand CRAN packages as pre-made binaries which is fabulous. Big thanks to Michael!
