Holy cow is #Rmarkdown #RStats #knitr inferior to #Jupyter. ðŸ˜
- WHY does it need to rerun EVERYTHING for hours when making a HTML/PDF?
- WHY is the apparent solution (caching) so weird? No clear instructions, only blog posts with broken formatting everywhere.
- WHY don't you at least see where it hangs during the process? No indication which line is currently executed?
- WHY does making a PDF silently fail after hours?
