BUG: Console Page Throws Random Errors on Demo Dataset Load for M1 Pro Chip Macs

[junhaow1]

Description

When loading the demo dataset in the RattleNG app and navigating to the Console page on M1 Pro chip Macs (specifically on Zheyuan's and Kevin's devices), random errors are observed in the Console output. The errors include unexpected symbols and missing objects, as well as mismatched brackets. This inconsistency disrupts the normal flow of data processing, making it challenging to analyze and visualize results on affected devices.

Why

These errors might be due to asynchronous issues, potentially related to compatibility with the M1 Pro chip architecture. Identifying and addressing the root cause is essential to ensure that users on M1 Pro chip Macs can use the Console page without encountering errors, improving the reliability and consistency of the RattleNG app across different platforms.

Closing Criteria

• [ ] Investigate the cause of random errors on the Console page for M1 Pro chip Macs.

• [ ] Confirm that the errors are reproducible on Zheyuan's and Kevin's machines.

  • [ ] Implement a fix for the asynchronous issue causing the errors.

For reference, I do not see this issue on Linux, Windows, not an older Mac.

I think a screenshot should be attached to this issue. :)

@zheyxu could you add a screenshot of the issue from the Console tab. Thanks.

Taking the first example:

The source R code is:

The names(summa is repeated three times, and then names is chopped to replace json_outp.

Taking the second example

The source R script is

How is it so badly mangled in the R Console?

It seems like = base_ is replaced by theme_ and yes, that is unexpected syntax.
