search for: infallibility

The following matrix of normed likelihoods should give a smooth surface but instead gives a series of spikes in both persp and contour (the dim labels are the axes values). I know an algorithm cannot be infallible but it would be nice to have some parameters to control the smoothing. (It takes close to an hour to produce this matrix on a Pentium II 300mh. It was after that that it crashed with the

hi, i found this explanation of the flac fingerprint somewhere: 'A FLAC Fingerprint is generated only for the audio data portion of the file. (Therefore, changing the filename or the tags or FlacMetadata does not change the fingerprint calculation.) In contrast, an .md5 is generated against the whole file, including header portions.' so i was wondering what advantages it could give me

...lac files with an .ffp file says, "I wouldn't deliberately deceive you"; sending a set of .flac files with no checksums at all says "I never make mistakes." There are people whom I'd trust not to deceive me deliberately but nobody from whom I'd accept a claim of infallibility. Moreover, if a set of .flac files is being shared, a copy of the fingerprints can be kept at a URL distributed with them, so that everyone receiving them can make sure that the fingerprints of the files (s)he gets match those of the original set. > i was also wondering how files encoded by...

Those of you who monitor the daily package checks will know that some packages generate ERROR reports spasmodically. This is normally due to segfaults, and in almost all cases has been traced (eventually) to memory access errors using the tool valgrind (http://valgrind.kde.org). Current examples include RCurl, RandomFields, geoR, kza and pcurve. This week I have run all the examples in all

Dear R-Users, A message to continue the discussions we had in March and June. I have read the documents written since then (http://www.r-project.org/doc/R-FDA.pdf ; http://user2007.org/program/presentations/harrell.pdf ; http://user2007.org/program/presentations/rossini.pdf ; http://user2007.org/program/presentations/soukup.pdf) which are very interesting and useful. I work in a CRO and we

Consider > "noalias". :-) Ah, but with the help of DMR, noalias was avoided and infallibility maintained. (Kidding.) Seriously, I don't think this particular item is a committee booboo, but I didn't mean to imply it cannot be. I only intended to note that the intent is that such optimization be allowed (and that to the best of my knowledge the words reflect that). > B...

After varying degrees of success with p2p detection modules, I would like to write the following rules using iptables to reliably identify p2p traffic: 1. If a host on the network has 5 or more simutaneous tcp connections to ports above 1024, mark all connections to ports 1024 and above as 60. 2. If a host has received (or sent) UDP packets from 5 different hosts'' ports above 1024 in a

Dear People, Consider the following fragment of R code choose <- function(n,r) { if( is.integer(n) && is.integer(r) && n > 0 && r >= 0 ) { .C("choose",as.double(n),as.double(r),comb = double(1))$comb } else stop("n must be a positive integer and r a non-negative integer.") } This is a practice function (n choose r), which I

OpenSSH 8.0 has just been released. It will be available from the mirrors listed at http://www.openssh.com/ shortly. OpenSSH is a 100% complete SSH protocol 2.0 implementation and includes sftp client and server support. Once again, we would like to thank the OpenSSH community for their continued support of the project, especially those who contributed code or patches, reported bugs, tested

A not so technical friend in India is shopping for a laptop. He often travels and stays months in Malaysia and so needs to be able to use the laptop there as well. He typically connects to the internet via wifi, but sometimes must use a telephone line (yes, with a modem). And of course there will be times when he has to plug into mains power to recharge the battery. So to be able to fully use

Hi All, I'm using samba 3.0.10-1 on RedHat Enterprise Linux 4. I'm authentication to our PDC using Winbind and also mounting our home directory share (from Windows) onto our main Linux server such that when a user logs on to the Linux server, their Windows home directory is mounted also. I'm using the domain admin account to mount the home directory share, which I feel is
