Description
Hi,
I followed all the instructions from your tutorial. Everything works fine using `rocker/binder` images < 4.0.0, but I always run into an error when trying to use newer versions, 4.0.x:
> 500 : Internal Server Error
> The error was:
> could not start rstudio in time
[My test repo is here](https://github.com/frederic-santos/testholepunch), and as you might observe, the "launch binder" button leads to an error. Reverting to the previous commit, where the image `rocker/binder:3.6.3` is used, is enough to solve the problem.
Am I missing something? Is there anything to do if we want to use the latest rocker images?

Also, this is completely unrelated, but you seem to have an extra tab in README.md, at the beggining of the last line below, which triggers an error for me with the `generate_badge()` function.:

Research direction
Reproduce the failure using the linked test repository with rocker/binder 4.0.x, then compare it with the working 3.6.3 setup and the reported “could not start rstudio in time” error. Done means the Binder launch succeeds with a newer image; separately check the extra indentation in README.md if that remains in scope.
