Hi, We have a little over 100 servers, almost all running CentOS 5.7. Virtually all are Dell servers, generally a mix of 1950s, R610s, and R410s. We use NTP and/or PTP to sync their clocks. One phenomenon we've noticed is that (1) on reboot, the clocks are all greatly out of sync, and (2) if the PTP or NTP process is stopped, the clocks start drifting very quickly. If it was isolated to one or two servers, I'd d...

I have just finished deploying two Dell PowerEdge 1950s with CentOS 5.1 and Virtuozzo 4. GFS is up and running and Virtuozzo is configured for shared-storage clustering. Everything works adequately but I am wondering if anyone else has experienced load issues like I am seeing. I have three VEs/VMs running, two on one node and one on the other node. One...

...er frequencies. Every vinyl lab checks this, and almost every mastering house has warnings about it on their website. Due to the frequency response of vinyl as a medium, bass has to be cut when recording, and boosted at playback. The RIAA standardised the vinyl frequency response curves back in the 1950s or so - before that there were competing systems using variations on the same frequency curve. As stereo vinyl is cut at 45 degrees for mono compatibility (a form of mid side encoding) the difference signal translates into vertical stylus movement. So the needle will jump out of the groove if there...

I would like to use R as the graphical interface for a fortran program I am writing. Presently my fortran code produces a set of data files then sends an "rterm ..... <filename.r >out.out" line to my windows system. This causes rterm to read in the data files, draw plots on my screen in milliseconds .... and then terminate and disappear, plots and all, forever. It's this last

On the hand, severe water scarcity (a, water supply from Hongyashan Reservoir reduced from 460M tons at 1950s to less than 100M tons now; b, more than 5 billion tons groundwater over extracted totally, the groundwater level dropped by an average of 10 ~ 12m; c. average annual precipitation for the past five years is 127.7mm, and the average annual evaporation is 2623mm); on the other hand, serious deterior...

I try to reproduce the SAS proc reg stepwise model selection procedure in R, but the only function I found was "step" which select new variables based on AIC. The SAS procedure I use add a new variable to the model based on F statistics and a pre defined significant level. Then before any new variables are added variables in the model that not meet F statistics at the significant level

In the 1950s he would be sent to the homes of people having trouble adjusting the colour settings on their new RCA's. That was system administration then. Who needs them now? We are dinosaurs. People do not hate us. They just do not understand why we are still around. Other than lifting the display int...

...ich people can adapt to change. As is noted elsewhere, change is inevitable. But there are many kinds of change. For instance, there is the change wrought by sudden and dramatic increases in productivity. How many here are cognisant of the fact that the O2 steel making process introduced in the 1950s lowered the labour content of a Tonne of steel by three orders of magnitude? Without that single change much of what we invisibly accept as part of the urban landscape today would not exist. Without that change it is likely that Bethlehem and Republic would still be in business. Without that cha...

Cool, thanks for all the great comments. I think we agree now on that the "find mp3 before encoding" feature would not be a good idea to implement in the flac core. As Brian pointed out, it might be a better idea to create a program that automatically checks if a flac might have been an mp3 source. My first suggestion was to use FFT, because I know that 128kbps mp3 have a low-pass

Dear R experts, Did someone implemented French Curve yet? Or can anyone point me some papers that I can follow to implement it? thanks in advance for your help. Paul

...he laptop”). This was the first configuration I used as I thought it might be important to be physically near the servers in case something didn't work. After a couple of successful live events, this turned out to not be an issue. The only problem to date has been the fact that our circa 1950s home electrical system only sports a 30 amp main fuse which means turning on the washer, dryer, and dishwasher at the same time causes us to lose power (and thus the whole network of servers, networking gear, and connected listeners). This generally isn't an issue and besides, I'm too...
