...with even slightly more distinctive names like Perl, Java, Python, Matlab, OCaml, etc., usually including the name of the language in the query is enough to ensure that the top hits are relevant. But this trick does not work for R, because the letter R appears by itself in so many pages, that the chaff overwhelms the wheat, so to speak. So I'm curious to learn what strategies R users have found to get around this annoyance. TIA! KJ [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

...t; " E". Any help on what I am doing wrong is much appreciated. I'm getting quite stressed as I have 10 files with approx 100,000 records in each to analyse so manipulating data becomes a pain. Here is the code below, not sure it makes much sense without seeing the dataset:- chaff<-read.spss("/Users/Kat/Desktop/papers in progress/btopaper/ edited BTO data/fatnewchaff.sav", to.data.frame=TRUE) chafffat<-read.spss("/Users/Kat/Desktop/papers in progress/btopaper/ edited BTO data/fatmethods.sav") chaffmerge2<-merge(chaff, chafffat, by.x=c("RIN...

...t many of the people on this list have built apps and found hosts for many clients. I''m wondering if you have any wisdom to share about how to identify a reliable, high-quality host? * What do you look for? * How do you know when you have found it? * How do you tell the wheat from the chaff? The audience are current & potential Rails users, so Rails-specific advice is welcome, but so is advice that goes beyond specific platforms. Any advice much appreciated! --CJ

Hi, For software development, projects are built through makefile. After building, I can run binary program. rpm is more convenient. Is there some tool that can build rpm? Thanks! Regards Andrew

Hello, I''m a big bookworm, so I decided to round up all the upcoming Ruby books in the market in one big blog post. At my count, there are _sixteen_ books to be released (in print) for the upcoming year, with some available in pdf form right now. Here''s the list: http://www.robsanheim.com/2006/03/23/ruby-and-ruby-on-rails-book-roundup/ Hope its helpful for fellow book nerds

...s a "score" based on their contributions is nice. I think that it is only going to work if someone does some editorial work and grades/sorts the contributions though. I don't claim to be a great developer, but if it would be helpful to have a BOFH who would reject or junk some of the chaff ("this is not a patch", "you need to change XYZ to make this portable", "this is spam", etc) and pass on the better stuff to someone else for consideration, then I'd be happy to help out with swinging the axe. :-) Regards, -- Neil Hoggarth...

Using the latest(?) bristuff (Asterisk 1.0.4-BRIstuffed-0.2.0-RC3a) I have problems with loosing the D-channel. Most of the time, after the message "PRI D-channel down" it only takes a second or so to come back up, noted by the message "PRI D-channel up" However, today most of the time the D-channel stays down. Calls come in, but can't be answered. Does anyone know

...more money than you think and is less complex. Dont go for 100 % either -or solution. Example replace 20 % of your desktops with open office , rather than microsoft office renewals. - use more variable linked bonus than flat fees for salaries. this helps separates the grain from the chaff. And improve revenue and cut costs rather than employees. Each unemployed person is a drag on the economy that will take social security that YOU will pay anyways. Employed people spend money on groceries , movies and provide even more jobs or potential markets. Mahatma Gandhi once said...

Folks I am using sendmail as my mail server. SELINUX is disabled. I observe messages in Centos 7 (and 6) in /var/log/messages, similar to: saslauthd[2765]: do_auth : auth failure: [user=bettie] [service=smtp] [realm=] [mech=pam] [reason=PAM auth error] I guess that this is because somebody tried to access one of the SMTP ports with a logon attempt. This is understandable; there are

Hi all, Over the past 10 years, there has been some discussion and several patches concerning keystroke timing being revealed by the timing of openssh packet network transmission. The issue is that keystroke timing is correlated with the plaintext, and openssh users expect their communications to be kept entirely secret. Despite some excellent ideas and patches, such as Jason Coit's

Why Ruby on Rails won''t become mainstream http://beust.com/weblog/archives/000382.html Kind of interesting, but didn''t convince me. Though, yeah, I can imagine a lot of naive programmers sticking with PHP and VB (the type of crowd that also doesn''t run their own servers, so they''re dependent on hosts offering Rails for them). Rails DOES have an IDE - soon

just wanted to get some feedback from the community. Over the last few days I have noticed my web server and email box have attempted to ssh'd to using weird names like admin,appuser,nobody,etc.... None of these are valid users. I know that I can block sshd all together with iptables but that will not work for us. I did a little research on google and found programs like sshguard and

...playing with phones. The mailing list volume is growing right along with it. You have to remember that this mailing list is one of the few real support channels that exist for *. The S/N ratio is getting pretty bad. Most of us don't have the time to spend all day long to sort the wheat from the chaff. The lack of good ettiquette has destroyed the digest version of this list, and the archives are close behind. How is a noob going to research before posting when the list is full of crap, threads are broken by lazy outlook users, etc? A few bytes spent urging the list admin to become more proact...
