12 hours left for completing your registration for CelebRation2020!⏲️The #ggplot2 workshop is now sold out. But if you hurry, you might be able to get a ticket for the #rcpp workshop, where @eddelbuettel will teach you about speeding up your R-code with C++ ⏩

It seems that the answer does not coincide with difftime() gives.
Below is a shorter @rdatatable solution which gives the same answer as base R.
data.table(now=Sys.Date())[
, st:=as.IDate(paste0(year(now)-3,"-01-01"))][
, d:=difftime(now,st)][]
#rstats

Love you for all you do, @climagic.
See our 'littler' project which sparks command-line joy via the 'r' command bringing #rstats and the R language to the command-line since 2006.

Just caught this after its start and tremendously enjoyed the last two hours on the stream. So very well done.

Hey, what are you doing for the next hour or two? Because you could be settling in to watch TLC, Kris Davis, Tia Fuller, Linda May Han Oh and others LIVE from Berklee, via @checkoutjazz wbgo.org/post/terri-lyne-car…

If you love open source Python, and have a little time on your hands, please consider helping to add a @tiledb backend to @xarray_dev - it'll help out loads of projects, and it's bleeding-edge stuff :) The Xarray devs can give friendly pointers!

Thanks for the retweet of the Rockerverse draft paper!
But please also consider giving credit to lead author @nordholmen and coauthors as eg in this tweet:

Today 2020-02-02 is a #palindrome day (ignoring punctuation) when written using the ISO 8601 format YYYYMMDD. It's the 47th day with this #symmetry in the last 1,000 years or so. See blog.sumymus.de/palindrome-d… for a nice summary and when the next ones are coming.

In fairness easy to install and scriptable (cf littler scripts below, h/t @cboettig and our Rocker work).
But it is minor nuisance that _everything else_ on my machine updates (near) daily via one command, yet RStudio desktop and server need extra steps.

Just installed @brave browser on @ubuntu. Always good to have choices.
Looks decent and fast, installs via an apt-get'able repo
[btw @rstudio it has been a decade, we're still waiting for that, love, dirk]
