Well it seems to mean that the file has moved. It , to my untrained eye, seems to be in the same sport as it was yesterday BTW I am now talking about dd <- "https://sites.google.com/site/jrkrideau/home/general-stores/duplicates.csv"
Would this indicate it's physically moving on googe servers? I had not realised there was something like rawToChar(). Amazing what R does.
