There are a few tutorials on how to set X11 up. I use Ubuntu natively: see the screen shot for using an alias I have for Docker. This uses R 4.1.0 via @marutterstat 's PPA using my @Debian package of #RStats and the r-base container that is also our rocker/r-base

Sure. Am over in RF and could cycle to OP to pick up bagels. Seems like karmic justice after a (rare) morning run (as I am still struggling with some lingering injury).

If you find the UNC Board of Trustees’ decision to deny @nhannahjones tenure as abhorrent as I do, consider supporting Nikole by preordering a copy of the 1619 book, which comes out this fall. It’s an expanded and enhanced version of the magazine issue.

That is not needed for this 4.0.* to 4.1.* transition.
Some release require it, but then it is clearly signalled. R 3.6.* to R 4.0.* was one such case, as was not R 3.3.* to R R 3.4.*. All others since R 3.0.0, as well as many before, simply reused your packages!

#RStats 4.1.0 in @Debian (experimental b/c release freeze, plus eddelbuettel/ppaR400 repo), and #RockerProject r-base container (latest and 4.1.0) -- the @Ubuntu and @Debian CRAN ports (thanks to @marutter and @JohannesRanke) will come shortly as will @Docker r-base.

The data team at @TheEconomist outdid itself: cover story of its Covid 19 excess death model, lead article, longer briefing, tech background at economist.com/graphic-detail…, additional page with per-country fits and a @Github repo with code and data. Bravo!

Truncation of (daily) dates to years in #RStats came up on SO, and along with heavy hitters @bolkerb and (twitterless?) Thomas Petzoldt three nice answers were put up. I like my (revised) base R one---but there is a 'wart' with `trunc.Date`. stackoverflow.com/a/67562643…

I used this one this week:
developer.ibm.com/exchanges/…
Comes in a humungous 190 million row (if I remember correctly) full set and a 2 million row subset.

Maybe try `mr`: "a tool to manage all your version control repositories" at once:

You can email the Maintainer listed in DESCRIPTION. And please keep us posted, we would love to hear what BDR tells you about the supposed 'bug' here (hint: it is a side effect of another large package you loaded).
