What's Next for R?
I know this is a dead horse, but I think R seriously shot itself in the foot with its data structures[1]. I don't really see a solution for this, as fixing it would never be backward compatible. I'll always pick Python over R because the data structures actually make sense to me as a programmer (objects that look like lists, dicts, matrices, etc. or any combination of the above, and they all behave in very predictable ways). I think this puts off a lot of other people like me.[1]: https://jamesmccaffrey.wordpress.com/2016/05/02/r-language-v...
