Several people have been proding me to write up my thoughts on how to fix the IR type system for LLVM 3.0. Here are some (fairly stream of conscious) thoughts on the matter: http://nondot.org/sabre/LLVMNotes/TypeSystemRewrite.txt Comments welcome! -Chris

...x in the wiki. IMHO, for the purpose of documenting and helping (different kinds of) users by means of the wiki, these are adequate. I will take this opportunity to mention some curiosities. Relevant developer(s) in Debian have already known about this ext4 matter for quite some time, but they consciously choose not to add information in the relevant bug report in Debian's bug tracker. They also actively choose not to implement any workaround nor provide any kind of information to its users. (Please note that Debian is not alone in this one; I only mention it here because of OP's scena...

When specifying an RGB colour in R, is there a strong reason not to accept 3-character HEX codes? In CSS and many other languages, a colour of "#ABC" is automatically converted to "#AABBCC", and I was wondering if R could support that as well, or if it was a conscious decision to not support it. --- http://deanattali.com [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

.... This problem, for my own, is typically a resource-sharing problem, and may be simply solved in a password-like way. That is, each temp file should be generated with a randomized name. It has been said that this implies 1) modifying shell scripts, 2) that the programmer should be security-conscious. That''s true. However if you want to make some files shared, and others private, this involves building different flags for each case ( shared or private ) for the system calls such as open, so this needs to recompile all the programs. So you have the choice, but for my own I do believ...

...nd the docs on the rails site (*and* the Mongrel FAQ) tell me that rails (& ActionPack /ActiveRecord) is not threadsafe. Since I need lots of worker threads in the app I''m working on (details at the end of this mail) this poses quite a problem for me. Is the lack of thread safety a conscious design decision (kind of understandable for rails as such, but IMHO strange for ActiveRecord) or just something nobody has found the time to take care of yet? Is there any documentation on what exactly lacks thread safety? From http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/HowTosWorkerThreads I got t...

...Peter Dalgaard has previously posted to R-help for improving graphic quality. I had to change the margins a bit, but here is what it looks like: http://www.broad.mit.edu/~finnyk/Rhome.jpg Personally, I think it looks much better. Because people so often "judge a book by its cover" (subconsciously or consciously), I'm wondering if anyone thinks this is worthy of replacing the current version? I want R to maximize R's appeal and albeit a small improvement, hopefully this change will help a bit! Regards, Finny Kuruvilla -- Finny Kuruvilla, MD, PhD Department of Molecular Biology,...

Package: logcheck Version: 1.2.39 Severity: normal Since I've upgraded my servers to sarge, I'm getting mail every hour for stuff that was duly included in /etc/logcheck/logcheck.ignore. Turns out that sarge's version no longer reads that file. If this was a conscious decision, then there should be some warning about this when upgrading (via debconf of NEWS.Debian). Also, the documentation should suggest a location for local rules. -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i68...

...server? I've been looking at the way thing are done with Apache 2.4 on C7 and in regards to SSL configuration I really don't care for it. It seems convoluted and a bit unnecessarily complicated. /I'm sure there's a good reason for it... I'm either not seeing it, or I'm sub-consciously not interested in why it's this way./ Thanks in advance, Mark

...39;s quite reasonable to do so yet (judging based on the rate at which new warnings seem to get added, that would leave too many buildbots broken). Adding a buildbot in the -Werror configuration should help to inform any such future changes. 2. It helps users who develop without -Werror (either by conscious choice or by oversight). Commits which inadvertently add warnings often seem to get reverted; however, if a buildbot can deliver warnings quickly, the committer can submit a small fix right away. I have uploaded a diff to Phabricator, however I ask to please keep high-level comments on this thread...

Hello, I have consciously avoided using step() for model simplification in favour of manually updating the model by removing non-significant terms one at a time. I'm using The R Book by M.J. Crawley as a guide. It comes as no surprise that my analysis does proceed as smoothly as does Crawley's and being a beginne...

Apart from that, is there any other difference >> (i.e. performance, kernel stability etc)? CentOS is an outgrowth of early efforts of Lance Davis in the UK, and has been consciously shaped, structured and recruited by me and a couple of other admins at the end of the RHL series to tap 'the best and the brightest' of the pool of non-Red Hat RPM based distribution developers to build a professonal grade 'community' RPM based successor to RHL; some of us ra...

...is suitable for lld's -compress-debug-section=zlib option, which let the linker compress .debug_* sections using zlib. Currently, lld uses compression level 9 which produces the smallest output in exchange for a longer link time. My question is, is this what people actually want? We didn't consciously choose compression level 9. That was just the default compression level for zlib::compress function. For an experiment, I created a patch to use compression level 1 instead of 9 and linked clang using that modified lld. By default, lld takes 1m4s to link clang with --compress-debug-sections=zlib...

...rous QA process. Where an outdated environment including equally outdated production tools needs to be maintained, on the chance e.g. that a customer return requires reworking an old part. I would consider it part of list etiquette to not second-guess those who for one reason or another make a conscious decision to stick to a particular environent. I will no doubt be told that CentOS 5.4 = CentOS 5.11 = CentOS 5, ie. the same OS, but this is not strictly true. For example, it would appear that autofs breakage and performance loss is at a minimum in 5.4. There :)

...two global pointers (Config & Driver) that refer to stack variables and are used in various places in the code. All of this seems to indicate a departure from the linker being useable as a library. To maintain the previous behavior you'd have to use a linker binary & popen. Is this a conscious design decision or a temporary limitation? If it's a limitation, how would one go about fixing this? I'm not too familiar with the idiomatical error handling in LLVM. Normally in this situation I'd just throw from error() but lld is probably compiled without exceptions. Is ErrorOr the...

...ble*. Really, really horrendous. Is this expected? Is there a program I can run to estimate the error or something? I expected degradation, but this just falls off a cliff with really objectionable artifacts. My application is going into the embedded space, so I'm quite a bit resource conscious. It's not that I couldn't live with 64kbps, but every factor of 2 helps. By the way, celtenc needs some better error messages. If you don't compile celt with "--enable-custom-modes" (which is no longer the default!), trying to figure out why celtenc just errors out no ma...

All, My apologies if this is a little long-winded and stream of consciousness-y :). SUMMARY: Why do we extend ActiveRecord instead of mixing it in to our model classes?
