Heads up to @ApacheArrow 🏹 #rstats users on CentOS 7: the upcoming 10.0.0 release uses C++17, which means you either need to (a) install a binary package like from RSPM or (b) install a newer compiler. We've got instructions and a script you can run here: arrow.apache.org/docs/dev/r/…

If you only watch one rstudio::conf() video, it should be @jcheng's: rstudio.com/conference/2022/… on the past and future of shiny. This is one of the best keynotes I've ever seen: informative, entertaining, and heartfelt. #rstats
