There's a major #rstats #rdatatable release waiting!

A tremendous thanks to all involved and especially those contributing to some major (performance-maintaining!!) rewrites around the non-API issue.

Major features include:

- a TON of improvements around rolling functions
- comment.char in fread()
- cbindlist() and mergelist()

Thanks also to the CRAN team and Luke for their patience+working with us to get it over the line.

indeed there is exactly one package here:

cran.rstudio.com/src/contrib/4.6.0/Other

well, they're both there at

cran.rstudio.com/src/contrib/PACKAGES

one has Path: 4.6.0/Other, whatever that means 🧐

resolved by using filters=c('R_version', 'duplicates'), though I still don't understand where this 4.6.0 version comes from...

Two invocations of available.packages(), one with filters='duplicates', returning different R version requirements for Rcpp

never seen that one before... any idea @eddelbuettel.com I don't see any indication Rcpp has ever required R 4.6

I took over as maintainer for {patrick} -- a {testthat} extension for running parameterized tests. we have a patch release adapting to {testthat} 3.3.0. h/t Hadley for the proactive fix! #rstats

lintr: A 'Linter' for R Code Checks adherence to a given style, syntax errors and possible semantic issues. Supports on the fly checking of R code edited with 'RStudio IDE', 'Emacs', 'Vim', 'Sublime Text', 'Atom' and 'Visual Stud...

Happy Thanksgiving, and happy {lintr} release day :) #rstats

Lots, as usual:
* native pipe enforcement by default
* encourage %||%
* discourage if (all.equal(...))
* exclude by glob in .lintr
* loads of robustness fixes

Thanks as ever for all contributions!

redistricting is good and just and I'll vote yes in the special election.

where are strawberries native to? 🍓

trick question! they are a French-made hybrid from the 18th century!

Outside of Seoul, children are largely phantom presences. There are a hundred and fifty-seven elementary schools that had no new enrollees scheduled for 2023. That year, the seaside village of Iwon-myeon recorded a single newborn. The entire town was garlanded with banners that congratulated the parents by name “on the birth of their lovely baby angel.” One village in Haenam, a county that encompasses the southern extremity of the Korean peninsula, last registered a birth during the 1988 Seoul Olympics.
