Public Apology to Minister Mentor Lee Kuan Yew and Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong, Singapore
I was misconstrued as having insulted Minister Mentor Lee Kuan Yew. My words were twisted and misinterpreted and I feel that there is a need to explain myself and set the record straight. [b]What really happened[/b] It was sometime in Aug/Sep in the year 2009. The setting was in the Tampines Central office of Asiasoft Online Pte Ltd. I was having a ***verbal*** conversation with Melvin Lee,

Re: BUG: Forum driving away experienced users
...into newbies and non-newbies the people the other Alan despises so much won't think of themselves as newbies. As a relative newbie myself I find it hard to swallow some of the near-elitist attitude shown by some experts, calling someone who isn't as experienced as you a noob is just plain insulting. I hope when those people learn something new they don't get a dose of their own medicine as I doubt they will like it. How you deal with the people who don't read the FAQs, check the AppDB, etc and can't post a thought out question is the miilion dollar question that every help/suppor...

[PATCH 05/28] media/v4l2: remove V4L2-FLAG-MEMORY-NON-CONSISTENT
...st revert it ASAP as the design wasn't thought > out at all. The UAPI and V4L2/videobuf2 changes are in good shape and the only wrong part is the use of DMA API, which was based on an earlier email guidance anyway, and a change to the synchronization part . I find conclusions like the above insulting for people who put many hours into designing and implementing the related functionality, given the complexity of the videobuf2 framework and how ill-defined the DMA API was, and would feel better if such could be avoided in future communication. That said, we can revert it on the basis of the impl...

Why no forum app in rails yet?
Hi Guys, So creating a forums application seems like something that rails can handle easily and well, and whatever implementation that came to fruition would be head and shoulders above existing products like vBulliten and phpBB. Even the existing rails forums are using php-based forum products! An insult if you ask me. So my question -- is there any current development of a rails-based

Mailinglist moderation
Hi, I think the time (150 messages and counting) has come to ask someone of the CentOS team to start moderating this list. I don't mind people discussing whatever topic they like, but not at the expense of the mailinglist and its members. I don't think the topic really doesn't matter in these discussions, and if done in private they would stand for long anyway. I would propose

Bootable Floppy w/ Networking & Shell?
I realize this is probably the wrong list but since some of the principals this list deals with are similar in nature I figured it could't hurt. What I am looking to do: Provide a solution to either boot from a floppy disk, establish a network connection, give user the ability to run utilities such as fdisk and dd. as well as provide the same solution as a PXE bootable image.

Camping and ruby2ruby
Hi everybody, I would like to use ruby2ruby in a caming project, but there seems to be an incompatibility with camping, ruby2ruby and markaby. Unfortunately I receive strange Markaby::InvalidXhtmlErrors. To demonstrate, that only combination of all three components causes the problem I added the following code. I relies on Markaby and ruby2ruby only and works fine (a.k.a. as expected).

using "plot" with time series object - "axes = FALSE" option does not appear to work
Dear R-help, I am attempting to plot data using standard R plot utilities. The data was retrieved from FRED (St. Louis Federal Reserve) using the package quantmod. My question is NOT about quantmod. While I retrieve data using quantmod, I am not using its charting utility. I have been having success using the standard R "plot" utilities to this point with this type of data.

[LLVMdev] SolusOS 2 + Clang
...pts run infinitely faster than when run with GCC. Obviously this is due to the test binaries being built to test various compiler features. In a word: Stunned. So I tried building various other components with Clang. Notable (and well known) failures include GLibc and the kernel. I find it more insulting that the standard components put forth by GNU (such as glibc) rely on their own non-standard extensions. Simply put: If you want to use one, you must use all. The case extends to binutils, gcc, etc. So, mild rant aside.. I'd like to make it known that I intend to build the vast majority of...
