Off Topic: Statistical "philosophy" rant
R-Listers. The following is a rant originally sent privately to Frank Harrell in response to remarks he made on this list. The ideas are not new or original, but he suggested I share it with the list, as he felt that it might be of wider interest, nonetheless. I have real doubts about this, and I apologize in advance to those who agree that I should have kept my remarks private. In view of this,

Being a polite client: maintaining history
Hi, folks. I''m investigating libraries to use in a rather specialized feed reader. Some of the sites I want to follow don''t have RSS feeds (or have hopelessly broken feeds) so I was already planning on using Hpricot anyway -- Mechanize is looking good, here. In my research for my project, recipe 11.16 in O''Reilly''s Ruby Cookbook references a website[1]

Intercepting an onClick file download
Hi, I''m having some trouble downloading a .csv file from a particular website. The file isn''t part of a url, you need to click on a link in order to get the file sent. I don''t know how to get mechanize to correctly identify that. Here is the link to the file I''m trying to retrieve: <td style="vertical-align: bottom; text-align: center;">

nls, convergence and starting values
"in non linear modelling finding appropriate starting values is something like an art"... (maybe from somewhere in Crawley , 2007) Here a colleague and I just want to compare different response models to a null model. This has worked OK for almost all the other data sets except that one (dumped below). Whatever our trials and algorithms, even subsetting data (to check if some singular

Psycho-acoustics research
Hi. I'm an undergraduate linguistics major and computer science minor at the University of Colorado in Boulder, and am taking a couple classes this semester which give me the opportunity to do a research project - one on introductory acoustics in the physics department, and one in the linguistics department on phonetics and phonology. I've got an idea, but I'd like to hear from anyone

regex question on escaping "." (and a couple other regex questions as well)
I have an example where escaping "." does not seem to be behaving consistently, but perhaps it is due to my misunderstanding. Could someone explain to me why the below produces the output it does? It seems to me that in the second example, where I am being more precise about specifying that a "." (dot) should be between the numbers, should produce the same output as the first

problem with glm(family=binomial) when some levels have only 0 proportion values
Hello everybody I want to compare the proportions of germinated seeds (seed batches of size 10) of three plant types (1,2,3) with a glm with binomial data (following the method in Crawley: Statistics,an introduction using R, p.247). The problem seems to be that in two plant types (2,3) all plants have proportions = 0. I give you my data and the model I'm running: success failure
