Hi All Just a few minutes back I came across a post about autotest/zentest and that post reignited the feeling I get when I look at RDoc, RoR documentation. The main thing that is lacking in RoR and to some extent Ruby''s RDoc is showing method names in HTML is not documentation. The arguments to method, exception/errors raised by method, return value and a usage example completes the

...g message: In cbind(foo.dates, foo[,2]) : number of rows of result is not a multiple of vector length (arg 1) I am sure this is a very basic question on types, but I have spent hours on this without much luck. Any ideas/suggestions would be greatly welcome. Thank you in advance. Achilles Venetoulias Tel: (212) 988-2276 axilleas@stanfordalumni.org [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

...parently Asterisk needs a rather different library than the one provided from ITU. As I've seen in the mailing list archives, there are quite a few users who were able to compile G.723.1 in *, so, could someone kindly share it with me in order to be able to use this codec? Thanks in advance, Achilles. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Hi, I'm looking for a usable PDF viewer with CentOS 4.3. On my previous install (Slack running XFCE with a handful of GNOME libs), I used Evince, which is just great. Looks like this is an Achilles' heel in CentOS, as I tested three available PDF viewers (ggv, gsview, acroread) with various PDF documents downloaded from the internet (which all display perfectly with Evince): either the result is just ugly, like Lego for the very young. Or the document can't be opened at all and produc...

Achilles, Hector, ?, Troy. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Achilles: Achilles chased Hector around the wall of Troy three times before Athena, in the form of Hector's favorite and dearest brother, Deiphobus, persuaded Hector to stop running and fight Achilles face to face.

Duncan - Indeed, this has now been well documented; I have called these constructions "Schr?dinger Facts", since they arise from a superposition of truths in the training data that collapse into an untruth when observed. https://sentientsyllabus.substack.com/p/chatgpts-achilles-heel Now, the curious question is: why can it program. Why is its production of R-syntax less vulnerable to this effect than a literature quote, or reference? Maybe it has to do with the fact that in producing correct syntax there is a ground truth - errors just will not run. But I'm not sure....

Just a positive experience I would like to share with you : testing is great on paper but very tedious to apply because nobody wants to run manually the tests by hand. Last week I have discovered zentest, an automated test process command line utility. That was at the beginning (hopefully) of a new project. Believe it or not, I have started to code most parts of the application without using

Hi, I am trying to use Asterisk cmd ZapRAS (http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/index.php?page=Asterisk+cmd+ZapRAS), I pathed the ppp daemon ftp://ftp.digium.com/pub/zaptel/misc/, but when I try to use it, I obtain the following error: Connected to Asterisk 1.2.4 currently running on TSU-R1 (pid = 7242) Verbosity was 0 and is now 44 -- Accepting call from '123456789' to

...cters), or (b) barring that, the function should at least error out with a clear error explaining that sapply, for example, cannot vectorize on the class being used? Returning incorrect answers is far worse than returning an error, from a perspective of stability. This is, by far, the largest Achilles' heel to 'R'. Personally, as my career advances and I work on more technical things, I am finding that I have to leave 'R' by the wayside and use other languages for robust numerical calculations and programming. This saddens me, because there are so many wonderful packages de...

Hello, we have dovecot 2.0.13 installed in our RHEL5 servers. We use dovecot as a lmtp proxy on the front end mail relays and dovecot for back end lmtp/pop/imap. All our servers have RHEL5.6 64-bit and dovecot 2.0.13 installed, and the back end has also an ext3 mbox file-system mounted. Sometimes we have mails that get stuck on our postfix queue with the following error: Remote server not

Hi, My work with Rails has been fairly straightforward, until yesterday... I''ve encountered rather a peculiar problem that I''m not able to solve myself as a rails-newbie. The model code looks like this: class Link < ActiveRecord::Base has_one :user_vote end class UserVote < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :user belongs_to :link end I have a SQL query that is

I was wondering which anchor would match in the regular expression "(a)|(b)" if both "a" and "b" matches the target string. What appears to happen is that the first match wins, and that's how it is documented in Python, but I was looking for docs on this in R. As far as I can see, the ?regex help page doesn't resolve this. So just for fun, I decided to

Hi Folks, Apologies to anyone who'd prefer not to see this query on this list; but I'm asking because it is probably the forum where I'm most likely to get a good answer! I'm interested in the provenance of the name "normal distribution" (for what I'd really prefer to call the "Gaussian" distribution). According to Wikipedia, "The name "normal
