Bad things about your favourite programming language
#12
R - the big one for me is memory management. It's a fair pain in the ass to figure out what objects are using a lot of memory. If it hits the limit (1500M) it just gives an error when you try to assign new variables.

Looping through certain kinds of vectors could also use some work. It's the kind of thing that the language is meant to do easily through vector/matrix notation, but there are still a few edge cases where you need a for-loop.
