Forum, I'm a grad student in Civil Eng, took some Stats classes that required students learn R, and I have since taken to R and use it for as much as I can. Back in my lab/office, many of my fellow grad students still use proprietary software at the behest of advisers who are familiar with the recommended software (Statistica, @Risk (Excel Add-on), etc). I have spent a lot of time learning R and am confident it can generally out-process, out-graph, or more simply stated, out-perform most of these other software packages. However, one area my view h...

Hi all, Does anyone have any experience porting libvorbis to platforms with small total memory sizes? Specifically, I'm trying to figure out if it's feasible to run Ogg Vorbis decoding on one of the PlayStation 3's SPU's -- secondary processors with only 256kb of local memory. It looks like out of the box the memory footprint of libvorbis is roughly: ~130k code ~60k static

Hey Tom, Really it was at the behest of the replies - we got a lot of feedback from the mailing list that indicated we'd be putting extra workload of people changing features of the IR if we didn't follow the same mechanisms of the other backends (mostly led by Chandler's very astute comments on the subject). Cheers,...

Hello Railists and Rubyists, I know that the topic of handling credit card numbers has been expounded before on this list (I''ve searched the archives) but I want to ask the question in a slightly different way, and get your feedback: Previous discussions on the list center around what to do with the card number *after* you have processed the credit card with a payment gateway

Just to let people know what my big picture is, I''m trying to write a script that will let me run a program, and name a progeny of that program that I want to debug. My script should find the first occurrence of that progeny, and run it until it finishes initializing the runtime linker, but stop it before it runs any shared library startup routines. (Failing that, I''d be okay

So we have been in discussions within the Khronos SPIR-V work group on our push to get our SPIR-V code into tip LLVM and have drawn the following conclusions; * We absolutely must create a fully fledged backend that uses all the machinery that target backends are expected to use. * We probably have to split out the SPIR-V -> LLVM IR into a separate project from LLVM ala Clang et
