...as for practical reasons. On reviewing some code written by novices to R, I came across: crossprod(x, y)[1,1] I thought, "That isn't a very S way of saying that, I wonder what the penalty is for using 'crossprod'." To my surprise the penalty was substantially negative. Handily the client had S-PLUS as well -- there the sign of the penalty was as I had expected, but the order of magnitude was off. Here are the timings of 1 million computations on vectors of length 1000. This is under Windows, R version 1.9.1 and S-PLUS 6.2 (on the same machine). Command...

...n for a while and I wonder if it might make the things I've been doing recently easier if I could find a tool that does what I need. Essentially, I've been writing a lot of technical proposals of late (mostly using google docs), but I'd like to switch to writing them in Markdown (which handily means I can track revisions and collaborate with git). However, the finished output needs to be in both pdf and html and I'd like to apply templates to both. Additionally I have a requirement for a cover page for the PDF Copy. I'd also like to be able to paginate the HTML at the same bounda...

I replaced my development machine with 6 cores, 32 GB etc. I thought it would be simply inserting the existing HDDs and changing /etc/sysconfig/ifcfg-eth0 but, * in the UEFI "BIOS" USB2 and USB3 work. * in C5.11 USB2 works but USB3 does not. * in C6.5 (my install disk; OS be updated to C6.8) USB2 works but USB3 does not. On both C5 and C6 lsusb shows an entry for the plugged-in

...all but twelve ports as open! Naturally, it's not likely that this machine is really that open in this state, as many of the ports that are showing up as open are things like MSRDP, but it is disconcerting. And the tarpit doesn't seem to work at that point - the connections are dropped handily. Spec on the machine: Generic P II system RedHat 7.2 Custom kernelversion 2.4.18-27.7.x based upon rpm install of kernel-source from redhat.

Hello, I have done some browsing through the wiki and on Google and haven't been able to find anything that looks like what is happening to me. When I start Asterisk by typing "asterisk -vvvc", I get "Illegal instruction" and nothing else. Nothing before and nothing after. This is a Via Cyrix III 667MHz CPU with 192MB RAM running on Slackware 10.1 (Kernel 2.4.29) as a

...k should work... but... doesn't. Take a look at the smb.conf man page: %u user name of the current service, if any. %U session user name (the user name that the client wanted, not necessarily the same as the one they got). ...so far so good. Well, LPRng handily includes a way to set who is printing the current job, by setting print command like the following: print command = /opt/LPRng/bin/lpr -P%p -U%U -J'%J' -r %s ...with -U being the important part. But what I can't figure out is is that %U is still the network guest user. Isn't Sa...

...hat is, instead of: rewind i8* %saved_exception_ptr you'd have: rewind void @_Unwind_Resume(i8* %saved_exception_ptr) or: rewind void @_cxa_end_cleanup() or, for targets that want special code sequences for resuming, something like: rewind void @llvm.crazytarget.end_cleanup() This also handily eliminates the problem of EHPrepare having to calculate data flow itself to the rewind instruction. Since Gabor already made most of the world use CallSite, adding a third call-like wouldn't be the end of the world, although I think most operations on calls (inlining, etc.) wouldn't apply...

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Has anyone see this alert? http://www.securityfocus.com/archive/1/353352 It seems to work on Linux, but when I tried the proof of concept on 4.3.0,1 running 5.2 RELEASE, I couldn't get the X server to core dump or segmentation fault. So, it seems likely to me that FreeBSD is not vulnerable to this. Any other thoughts on this matter? John

Folks, I''m trying to figure out whether we should give ZFS / mpxio a shot on one of our research servers, or simply skip it (as we have previously). In Nov 2009 Cindy responded to a thread concerning ZFS device issues, cfgadm, and mpxio: http://mail.opensolaris.org/pipermail/zfs-discuss/2009-November/033496.html I''ve got an x2270 with the Sun EZ-SAS HBA and external SATA

Hello list! Sorry to be a pain, but I've hunted high and low and can't seem to find the answer. I have a Slackware 10 system and a Microsoft Windows 2000 system. On the Windows 2000 system are lots of files with extended characters - like (tm), (r) and characters with umlauts. I used the "locale" command and set LC_ALL=en_US.UTF8. I am running KDE and in the Konqueror

Two amendments: > The semantics of the invoke instruction are slightly modified: if an exception > unwinds and it doesn't match anything in the list of catches and filters, > and there is no cleanup, then control doesn't branch to the unwind label, > unwinding simply continues out of the function. in fact the new semantics would be that if an exception doesn't match then

...reat to implement in comparison to my mostly-failed attempts with Cyrus. The passwd-file authentication was exactly what I needed as I really didn't want to have to deal with PAM or LDAP but where I am setting up a server with virtual accounts. I'm using Postfix as an MTA, and it quite handily passes the mail off to SpamAssassin. From there I need an MDA to dump any mails detected as spam into a common spam folder, discard any mails with viruses (antivir) and send a notification to me, and then drop good mail into the appropriate maildir directory for the virtual users to get via bo...

Dear List, After my laptop was stolen I (eventually) replaced it with a G4 laptop running Mac OS 9.1 . This also meant I updated to the current Mac binary 1.3.1. This is pretty wonderful except for one problem. I normally save R figs as eps files using the Mac OS and then read them into Latex documents. This no longer works as the legends overwrite the diagrams. Saving as ps from R also does

Having recently read about the lack of security of Active X controls, I was wondering if I could get some specifics about its lack of security versus the security of JAVA. Also about the security of JAVA under Linux. I understand that MS''s concept of security is a) investigate the vendor, b) issue a certificate of authority, 3) vendor is now trused to do anything (fox guarding the hen

Hi, this is not an R-help post, but I found this extract below that was written by a leading mathematician back in 1999 when he was talking about statistics and computing. I found it interesting to share and I ask your opinion do you think this still holds today or things have changed? Thanks. ?...we would also like to mention that in our opinion Mathematica provides an excellent and indeed

...t it makes sense for that to be pushed to the event listener itself since some listeners may be satisfied with the raw object itself as input. Most of the support necessary to parse object images to obtain source-level debug information is already present in LLVM somewhere, though not all of it is handily exposed through interfaces in the include tree. In order to implement a default event listener that provides the basic functionality of the existing JIT event listeners, some extensions to the existing DIContext and related DebugInfo classes will be necessary. The development of an interface to e...

I have been having a heck of a time getting cross subnet browsing to work properly. After MANY hours hunting through source and debug logs, I have FINALLY found the source of my browsing issues. My Samba nmdb properly becomes the LMB for my segment on a WAN. I VPN to my servers at the home office and Samba attempts to sync with the DMB. nmbd properly locates the DMB via WINS over the

Hi puppet masters, while working on my site I came across a requirement that might be helpful for others as well.... With the aim of confining human errors as much as possible, I thought that it would be nice to have yum repositories disabled so that specific repositories could be enabled for certain packages. This is easily implementable via command-line, but I found that the
