Reencoding mp3pro in mp3pro or mp3 with ices

Thompson may be > able to sell you something, but I've no idea how much it will cost. > Frankly, I'd move to Ogg Vorbis, it's supported by more players > anyway. From a quality standpoint, I'd love to, but from a 'supporting paid users of a stream with minimal effort' standpoint, the amount of effort necessary to get the right player or codec in the hands of casual non-techie computer users makes it not worth it.

What went in Linux 3.5 from Xen standpoint.
Hey, Linus released this Saturday v3.5 and there were quite a few of interesting components/fixes/features that went in! Going to go down the list of what shortlog provided: - Less MSR traps when using AMD machines - so better performance. [andre] - The APIC IPI interface works - which means that ''perf'' in the initial domain works. So no more lockups. Also with some

NAs and rle
...A twitter user, Mike fc (@coolbutuseless) mentioned today that he was surprised that repeated NAs weren't treated as a run by the rle function. Now I know why they are not. NAs represent values which could be the same or different from eachother if they were known, so from a purely conceptual standpoint there is no way to tell whether they are the same and thus constitute a run or not. This conceptual strictness isnt universally observed, though, because we get the following: > unique(c(1, 2, 3, NA, NA, NA)) [1] 1 2 3 NA Which means that rle(sort(x))$value is not guaranteed to be the sa...

URLS and Human Factors
...hatever (I''d given up on that part), but how does it know what book I''m reading? I cut and paste the URL into a completely different browser, and in disbelief, saw the correct page load. How on earth did it know what book I was reading? Grrrrr! From a RoR developer''s standpoint, these links make sense. It is requesting information by passing a unique id. From a user''s standpoint, these kind of URLs are confusing/misleading/counter-intuitive. My question: is there a way to write the controller (perhaps by adding to the belongs_to, and habtm) to allow for clear...

Hello, Does anyone have an explanation for why the following code results in the error that follows? I also would value any criticisms of my approach (i.e., defining it_should_populate_collections).

TFTP Serer ????
G'Day All, Can someone help me out please. My new CISCO 7960's manual says I have to setup a TFTP server. Googled it and got a little understanding, but from * standpoint, well I am still a lost. Can I set this tftp server on the same * box? Can in be on a WinXP box? Which tftp software would you recommend? Thanks much. BTY: Does anyone have a How-To on getting the 7960 fully configured for *? Thanks....Ferg

Reason for _spec.rb convention
Hi Easy one - I just wondered why all spec files for rspec_on_rails end "_spec.rb" instead of just ".rb"? They are all inside the spec folder so surely the fact they are specs is implicit? Ashley

multi-line query
...I'm looking for less to type and readability. This is not very readable for large queries: s <- 'create table r.BOD("id" int primary key,"name" varchar(12))' I write a lot of code, so I'm looking to type less than this, but it is more readable from and SQL standpoint: s <- gsub("\n", "", 'create table r.BOD( "id" int primary key ,"name" varchar(12)) ') How it is used: dbSendUpdate(con, s) Regards, Ben [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Acts_as_taggable pluralize
I am implementing a messaging system, which requires broadcast to group feature. Instead of a relatively clunky habtm group structure, I am using tags. Form a usability standpoint, it would be helpful to avoid redundant tags. Like, friend vs friends OR client vs. clients. Is it practical to filter tags, before entry, to avoid duplicate tags like plural vs. singular? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

[LLVMdev] Advantages of LLVM Optimization
Hi, I am planning to use LLVM in my compiler dev project. I would like to know what power LLVM code optimization phase provides to my code ? I had a look at http://llvm.org/docs/Passes.html which describes the optimization passes. >From a newbie standpoint can you please explain the power of LLVM optimization? Thank you, Prakash -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL: <http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/attachments/20140807/f70d5275/attachment.html>

Maildir format use question
...ould mail in cur, EVER not have a flag? I suppose if it were marked as UNSEEN after being SEEN, that's possible. So I just answered myself there :) Is it possible to have Dovecot NOT move a file from new/ to cur/ until a flag has been assigned to the mail? Just from a, possible, performance standpoint - it seems when accessing an INBOX from a PHP webmail system with MANY new mails, there is an unnecessary(?) mass move of these files to another folder. Thoughts? Rick

Fwd: The StructTS method
...what a Structural Time Series IS. I've looked up resources on it, and get that essentially you're dividing the Time Series in to additive components dependent on time, but have no idea how your method works or why. I've also looked at the documentation, which is great from a programmers standpoint and gives at least a basic format but without any idea as to how optimization occurs. Would you be able to even just supply some C code (which I could open in notebook, hopefully) showing how the method works/optimizes/heuristically recommends and why? Sincerely, Alexander Frethe...

[PATCH v33 1/4] mm: add a function to get free page blocks
...uarantee that they are still on the free page list after > the function returns. Ack. This is the kind of simple interface where I don't need to worry about the MM code calling out to random drivers or subsystems. I think that "order" should be checked for validity, but from a MM standpoint I think this is fine. Linus

Load Balance Outbound AND Inbound Internet Traffic to one location over multiple links
...narios where the main traffic is input. Also, I''ve read through the linuxvirtualserver documentation, and i dont think that applies to me either, as that set up intercepts traffic and manipulates the final destination IP and port for the traffic. What I would like to do is 1) from the ISP standpoint, deliver traffic for a given public IP network to a client over multiple (load balanced) links. I have a linux router on site that receives traffic for this network, but i dont know how to encapsulate / balance the traffic so it gets to the client site. 2) from the client standpoint, receive traff...

Web photo gallery options
...th this one. What web photo gallery software do you guys use? My requirements are only that the software should be simple to install, maintain and add more photos. I'm not a pro (a newbie more like it...) when it comes to mysql and php, so this needs to be easy to do as well, from the gallery standpoint.

Why are LLVM releases statically linked against LLVM libraries?
...t have a slightly different story to tell. As I understand it the many-shared-libraries build configuration isn't supported, so I think the primary "alternative" in terms of which is the default would be using and linking against libLLVM. I can speculate the reasons from a technical standpoint and by inferring from commit history... but curious if there's a better answer to be had? Thanks! :D ~Will

R --interactive -e 'browser()'
...--interactive -e 'source("script.R")' or we could shorten it to: R --interactive -e 'browser()' However, it seems that --interactive causes -e to be ignored. And if I leave out --interactive, then R quits before the browser() function exits. From an engineering standpoint it doesn't seem like it should be very difficult to tell the interactive REPL to pretend that a certain command was entered before everything else. Also, it would be useful to me to be able to debug R scripts using standard features like 'browser()'. Should I submit a feature request on...
