Completely off topic, but amusing?
Folks: Thought that many on this list might find this amusing, perhaps even a bit relevant. Hope it's OK: ************ WASHINGTON - The government's estimate of the number of Americans without health insurance fell by nearly 2 million Friday, but not because anyone got health coverage. The Census Bureau <http://search.news.yahoo.com/search/news/?p=Census+Bureau> said it has

FYA (for your amusement)
Well, we knew the 'Net was invented solely for cute cat pictures. Now I have proof that selinux is part of that conspiracy. From dmesg, on one of my servers: [ 3366.091561] SELinux: 8 users, 14 roles, 5031 types, 316 bools, 1 sens, 1024 cats mark

an unusual use for R
I thought some of you might be amused by this. In my non-work time, I'm an avid weaver and teacher of weaving. I'm working on a project involving creating many detailed weaving patterns, so I wrote R code to automate it. Details here: http://stringpage.com/blog/?p=822 If the overlap between R users and avid tablet weavers t...

No thanks for breaking third-party applications
...object format to ELF.? Ugh. Well, updating the *.c32 files was enough to make the Linux discless thingy work again. BUT! The MirBSD bootloader actually took advantage of COMBOOT to provide access to SYSLINUX storage and other things. It was integrating nicely. Why did you take this away? I?m not amused. bye, //mirabilos -- Yes, I hate users and I want them to suffer. -- Marco d'Itri on gmane.linux.debian.devel.general

The Origins of R AND CALCULUS
An amusing afterthought : What is a rival software (ahem!) was planting this, hoping for a divide between S and R communities.or at the very minimum hoping for some amusement. an assumption or even a pretense of stealing credit is one of the easiest ways of sparking intellectual discord Most users of softwares don't really care about who gets credit ( Who wrote Windows Vista ,or Mac OS or Ubuntu Linux), and the NYT is a newspaper not a journal. Does any student...

OFF TOPIC: chatGPT glibly produces a lot of wrong answers?
...correct are worse than a coin flip But its suggestions are so annoyingly plausible" ************************************* from here: https://www.theregister.com/2023/08/07/chatgpt_stack_overflow_ai/ Hmm... Perhaps not surprising. Sounds like some expert consultants I've met. ? Just for amusement. I am ignorant about this and have no strongly held views, Cheers to all, Bert [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

[LLVMdev] Circular dependencies
...here is libLLVMipa.a, which gets pulled in by something in libLLVMTransformUtils.a, but which doesn't often seem to be needed in practice. The third set is also a bit surprising: You always need to link in an interpreter, even when you have a perfectly good JIT. I hope this information amuses or informs someone. :-) Cheers, Eric

Time just moved backwards
This wins the 2007 award for strangest (or most amusing) log message: dovecot: Time just moved backwards by 13 seconds. This might cause a lot of problems, so I'll just kill myself now. It does, unfortunately, leave dovecot dead, which was pretty mysterious to me. Maybe it could re-exec instead?

New York Times Article: Data Analysts Captivated by R's Power
Readers of this list might be interested in the following article in the New York Times and might find amusing the notion that "Some people familiar with R describe it as a supercharged version of Microsoft's Excel spreadsheet software...". http://www.nytimes.com/2009/01/07/technology/business-computing/07progra m.html?_r=1&ref=technology Art

Speex on windows, audio cutting out ("bug" discussion and fixes)
...to not be managed correctly in a multithreaded program, eventually sending the computation into NaN land. I am in the process of building everything back up with gcc-4 to verify this on windows. We don't have this problem on the intel mac build, that was already switched to gcc-4. As amused as we are that I have found a bug that really might be caused by the compiler ;-) I'd also be open to other reasons that the high-pass filter buffer is getting junked up. However, hopefully this post will help someone debugging this crazy problem in the future -- and its an amusing st...

Design changes are done in Fedora
...? It was arrogant change with absolutely no regard for the existing Centos/RHEL users. That *is* a strange "design goal" (or 'objective' in English). Some may consider that "goal" an inadvertent omission. Obviously designed by non-Centos/RHEL users for their personal amusement and pleasure and not as an acceptable enhancement that could be implemented, perhaps in phases, within minimum disruption to existing systems reliant on stable Centos/RHEL. Yes, I know it takes brains to properly consider all the implications of major changes. On this occasion it seems the ...

Disk near failure
...240 MLC? > Amazing. He suggested you definitely reliable drive (Samsung). Reliable in my boot too. You ask his opinion about yet another Corsair. One by Corsair failed on you already. So, you should have better knowledge about Corsair's SSD reliability, right? Sorry to sound sour, it just amuses me how people keep buying things made by the same company whose products already failed on them. This is what creates the problem: keeps companies manufacturing bad hardware exist.

Good for a chuckle
