Good piece by Colin on a topic I riffed about a few times as far back as 2017 at dirk.eddelbuettel.com/blog/c…
The new new thing are the binaries of the @RStudio Package manager, available for multiple platforms.
Are these useable outside of a RSPM subscription?

Answered at @StackOverflow: "Error installing #Rcpp 1.0.4 (released this week) on an (outdated) #Rstats 3.3.*"
Eight paragraphs with details about three issue tickets, three merged pull requests, and an interim Rcpp 1.0.4.3.
We need broader testing.

Grrr. 0.4.16.

I think we can reject the null hypothesis of "Dirk can type" at
all convential significance levels.

Jitsi (jitsi.org) is a great, fully open source solution for videoconferencing.
Beyond the traditional free service at meet.jit.si/, service providers are making instances available to help, like ensemble.scaleway.com/

There is nothing to it.
It is just `r-base` aka `rocker/r-base` -- which already knows about Debian testing (its default) and even unstable (should you need it).
So just launch the container, say `apt update; apt install gcc-10`.

The attention to details such as these by R Core is one of the under-appreciated gems for R. Better high-performance computing (startup) performance coming with R 4.0.0.
