...is a question about removing the intercept in a binomial glm() model with categorical predictors. V&R (3rd Ed. Ch7) and Chambers & Hastie (1993) were very helpful but I wasn't sure I got all the answers. In a simplistic example suppose I want to explore how disability (3 levels, profound, severe, and mild) affects the dichotomized outcome. The glm1 model (see below) is the same as glm2 (2 dummy variables coding sever and mild). In both models the reference level is profound disability. My questions are: 1. How do I interpret the coefficients in the third model (the intercep...

An intermittent need to connect to a CentOS4 development box from a MS-Win2K workstation using X-Windows has developed here. However, I cannot seem to find a cheap (read free) X-windows client for MS- Windows to accommodate this. This seems very odd to me, displaying no doubt my profound ignorance of the issues involved. The few shareware versions that I have located expect registration fees in the $90-100 range, which is something I have never encountered before. Is there a free X-Windows client for Microsoft OS's? Why is this software so rare and dear? Regards, Jim -...

Hello, I'm new to R, but it seems to work nicely for me from the start. Being a molecular biologist, I do not have a profound knowledge of statistical reasoning. I have two questions: 1) is there an other manual for R available apart from the `R-intro' document, especially one with more in-deep description of calculating basic statistics with R? ...and a more specific one: 2) Suppose I compute a regression model u...

...ze the relocation reading for MIPS targets and my first idea was to factor out ELFReference creation into a couple of virtual functions. The first one is for Elf_Rel, the second one is for Elf_Rela. Then I planned to override these functions in the MipsELFFile class. But it looks like you have more profound idea. Could you share it? Thanks. -- Simon

Hi all, I''m new to rails after having used perl for most of these things, and am trying to get my head around the generate script for a project playing around with. If I do: ./scripts/generate controller Device I get app/controllers/device_controller.rb where I can then add: scaffold :device However, if I want to actually generate the scaffolding so I can make some changes:

...I have to adjust for the different styles as I move to different parts of the codebase. Just something for you to consider. 2. (more important than #1) I'd like to understand the reason behind your preference for UpperCase names for ivars. Is it just a personal preference or is there a more profound reason? So far, I've heard that some people like lowerCase ivars (clear distinction from types, etc), and some people don't think that helps much. However, I'm yet to hear why UpperCase ivars are considered *better* than lowerCase, so I'm curious. Thanks. -- Zhanyong

...E disk with a large (8MB) write cache. My understanding is that enabling write cache is a risky thing for journaled file systems, so for a fair comparison you would have to enable the write cache for ext2 and disable it for all journaled file systems. It would be nice if someone with more profound knowledge could comment on this, but my understanding of the problem is: - journaled filesystems can only work when they can enforce that journal data is written to the platters at specifc times wrt normal data writes - IDE write caching makes the disk "lie" to the kernel, i.e. it sa...

Hi, I have a system that is experiencing profound echo on channel 4. I switched POTS lines around to see if it was the line or the port and it is still a problem on port four.

...160+ applications and seemingly endless options a person just can't know it all. Often one needs a new way to manipulate calls, searches and discovers the solution, realizing it was in the code all along. Inevitability lures one to investigate, deeper understanding is accomplished, maybe even profound but never complete. As the layers of the Onion are peeled back, wear proudly the malodorous smell of knowledge that is Asterisk. JR Richardson Engineering for the Masses I have the Asterisk stink on me!
