BREAKING: Our client Mario Guevara, an Emmy-winning journalist detained by ICE in retaliation for livestreaming law enforcement activity, will be deported tomorrow to El Salvador.

Mario and his family are being punished for his reporting. This cruelty is meant to stifle our free press.

In case you didn't know:

You can run your package unit tests with {testthat} in parallel with two simple steps (see testthat.r-lib.org/articles/par...):

tldr:
1. Add `Config/testthat/parallel: true` to DESCRIPTION.
2. Add `TESTTHAT_CPUS=8` to your .Renviron and restart R.

Même si une maladie est définie comme rare lorsqu'elle affecte moins de 5 personnes sur 10 000, l'ensemble touche environ 3 millions de personnes en France, souvent des enfants.
