If I complain here will they fix my year old bug?
https://github.com/rstudio/rstudio/issues/12508

6 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 20 Mar 2024

This particular issue should be resolved in the latest daily builds of RStudio. The underlying issue here was a conda patch included in the conda-provided builds of R, which interfered with the way RStudio attempted to load R. Please see https://github.com/rstudio/rstudio/issues/13184#issuecomment... for more details.

Random error to subset dataframe... no clue why

Based on this github issue page it seems to be a bug with RStudio

2 projects | /r/Rlanguage | 15 Jun 2023

It is a bug that was introduced in RStudio 2023.06.0 Build 421. See Error with 'cacheKey' in .rs.WorkingDataEnv and .rs.CachedDataEnv. The current advice is to ignore or add options(rstudio.help.showDataPreview = FALSE) to your ~/.Rprofile ... so RStudio can ignore it for you.
