Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

What's the best way to manage packages for different versions of R?
I am, strictly speaking, not a big R user, so take my opinion with a grain of salt, but if I were using R extensively, I would absolutely use the Rocker project containers to manage different R versions and different sets of dependencies for different projects: https://rocker-project.org/

What is the 'Fedora experience' like for scientific computing?
Perhaps the main difference is r package are not available as binaries from rstudio (posit) repo but their is a cran2copr repo that works really well or you can still install from source in your home. For more info on cran2copr see: https://cran.rstudio.com/bin/linux/fedora/ . Personally I am slowly moving to container based workflow with podman (and not toolbox as you end up having your r package install directly in home but that can be worked out by specifying the ribs path). I use docker image from the rocker project: https://rocker-project.org/

[S] Step-by-step on how update to a specific version of R.
If you have such specific requirements it’s often easier to use a container like the one from rocker (runs in der docker) instead. Btw wouldn’t be surprised if you’d get the latest version running in there as well.

Temporarily Disable R Studio
Check out the Rocker Project, comprising of Docker containers for R, and can be used with RStudio. Also, virtual environments e.g., renv package can also help solve the package versioning issue, aside from containerization, and is transferable to a new machine via the renv::restore() function.

Tips for using docker
https://hub.docker.com/u/rocker has a lot of R-related images and they look pretty legit (look at "Tags" to find different versions). Don't use weird looking images. There's a lot of malware out there. Here's a guide on nice docker files: https://docs.docker.com/develop/develop-images/dockerfile\_best-practices/

Does anyone feel like R is actually vastly worse for dependency/environment management than Python?
Other people have mentioned renv and packrat already (hasn't renv basically superseded packrat at this point?), but what is also nearly ready-made to deal with this is rocker's R images. They have a bunch of images preconfigured for typical TidyVerse stuff, Shiny, etc.
- My experience of trying to get the latest software on Linux is as confusing (annoying?) as Windows!

Trying To Run R Studio from Docker (rocker/rstudio) "Cannot Connect to R Session"
The Apple M1 is ARM. As far as my knowledge, ARM isn't supported. Looks like the rocker project is aware of it. Considering how popular these chips are, i'm confident a lot of smart people are working on it. :)

Which video course or book would you recommend for R on AWS?
But, with docker, there are many prebuilt images provided by the RStudio team directly, and other great repositories from rocker. These are basically images for your full SDLC with R, from development to deployments.

Writing a Minecraft server from scratch in Bash (2022)
To skip the "move your scripts to standalone files" step some devs don't like, consider something like https://github.com/hadolint/hadolint which runs Shellcheck over inline scripts within Containerfiles.

I reduced the size of my Docker image by 40% – Dockerizing shell scripts
This is neat :)
I love going and making containers smaller and faster to build.
I don't know if it's useful for alpine, but adding a --mount=type=cache argument to the RUN command that `apk add`s might shave a few seconds off rebuilds. Probably not worth it, in your case, unless you're invalidating the cached layer often (adding or removing deps, intentionally building without layer caching to ensure you have the latest packages).
Hadolint is another tool worth checking out if you like spending time messing with Dockerfiles: https://github.com/hadolint/hadolint

Top 10 common Dockerfile linting issues
With Depot, we make use of two Dockerfile linters, hadolint and a set of Dockerfile linter rules that Semgrep has written to make a bit of a smarter Dockerfile linter.

Is adding a USER best practice?
The most common linter I've seen and used it Hadolint, which does: https://github.com/hadolint/hadolint/wiki/DL3002 I didn't bother checking to see if alternatives also support this as well though.

Checkmake: Experimental Linter/Analyzer for Makefiles
Some discussion on that here:
https://github.com/koalaman/shellcheck/issues/58
The hadolint project does shell checking for Dockerfiles and it uses shellcheck:
https://github.com/hadolint/hadolint
So the approach is definitely feasible, but you do need a new project and probably it needs to be written in Haskell.
