Today is the last day of mediocre library call optimizations
To this day, we still do too little when it comes to optimizing well known library calls. Given that various libraries, especially the C/C++ standard library, are relatively clear defined, and LLVM has all the infrastructure already in place, e.g., SimplifyLibCalls.cpp, it seems odd that we still miss so many optimization opportunities. To show how easy it is, and how much impact it can have, I

CentOS iso for Sparc64 machine
Hi, I have been looking for CentOS for sparc based machines without luck. I tried to use birorrent to download it without luck. I really would appreciate anyone letting me know because I have a Sun Ultra 60 that I would love to install it on. Thanks! -- Dexter Dexter F.

Ogg too good?
...hear the differencee between the ogg and the original files. Maybe it was the type of music I was encoding or limitations in my listening equipment or something but it seems pointless to have a scale from one to ten and have most of it unused. Seriously... this is a real problem. What if I *want* mediocre quality, eg. for downloads where I don't want people to have the full quality version of a song? Also, I think MP3 people will feel cheated if they never need use a higher quality level than two or three. So please, please, let's have worse quality. It's psychological and maybe silly,...

Implementation of TLS OCSP Stapling
...curity-concerened, as is Google/GMail. But is that really a reason *not* to implement a feature? Shouldn't a developer think: "OK, I want my MTA to be the best! I want to be on the top of the list of all the MTA's out there." in stead of thinking "OK, I'm fine with being mediocre, I don't care.."? :)

Handling 8GB .txt file in R?
Hi, I am mediocre at R, maybe 1000 hours experience, but I received an 8GB dataset and I don't know what to do with it. I have to do extensive analysis over it for my Honours thesis. I can't even import it. I've tried; - Splitting it up using the free csv-splitter-1.1.zip that seems to be working for e...

[PATCH] New apodization functions
...tor stage. What these new function enable, practically speaking, is using only part of the signal to generate a predictor. My theory is that this helps because short transients introduce noise into the predictor. The predictor becomes very good at prediciting one part of the signal, instead of mediocre for the whole block. For more information on the whole window-thing, it might be a good idea to see this hydrogenaudio-post by Josh himself: http://www.hydrogenaud.io/forums/index.php?showtopic=44229 One thing to note is that this patch only affects the encoder stage that evaluates various pos...

Updates on Centos 4
Hi, I have a server that has been running Centos for about a year but I have not checked to see if there have been any changes to update. Has there been any updates or fixes for the update?

Using parameters in lpq command conflicts with background lpq
...date the background lpq code to use the (fully substituted) lpq command as the cache identifier instead of (or in addition to) the service name? My application aside, I think it would be best if Samba's behavior was consistent in both daemon and non-daemon modes. I'd be willing to lend my mediocre programming skills to the task if it would help. Thank you -Jerry

But the effort required should not be under-estimated and the need for a *good* implementation is pretty strict. A mediocre or worse implementation is in many ways worse than useless and even dangerous.

Transcoding listening test
...12kbps oggs to save diskspace. Even if he realizes it will only lower quality, it will gain him/her diskspace. We know that transcoding will introduce errors, but it is interesting to check how bad they are. If the errors are small due to ogg's encoding quality, they may not be all that bad on mediocre equipment, and the diskspace is a real gain. Therefore, I decided to do a listening test. I took several mp3 encoded files, decoded them and reencoded them in vorbis. I used different mp3 encoders and encoded in beta4 @ 128 kbps. It would be reasonable to estimate that 1.0 will give comparable qua...

Re: Asterisk bandwidth tuning?
Well, I don't know how to tune it more, it connects at about that rate in a mediocre rural landline. ILBC uses samples of 30ms, so if you set the trunkfreq set to 20 you will be using more of the necesary scarce bandwidth AND dropping sample info in each frame, thus making audio choppy and unclear. Make shure to disallow all codecs and then allow only ILBC or lpc10 (search for it...
