Best practices for the maximal length of user names
Hello,
are there any best practices for the length of user names?
I tend to limit them to 8 characters and to follow the pattern 'first
letter of the first name'+'first 7 letters of the last name' (e.g.
mbaudier).
But people are sometimes frustrated with having their last name
truncated and I wonder if limiting the user name to 8 characters is
not a kind of superstition coming

Anyone successfully install Rgraphviz on windows with R 2.13?
I have been trying to get Rgraphviz to work (I know it is from Bioconductor) unsuccessfully. Since I have no experience with Bioconductor I thought I would ask here if anyone has advice. I have installed Graphviz 2.20.3 as is recommended on the Bioconductor site but basically R cannot seem to find the needed dll files. So, even though I have added the appropriate directories to the system path R

Running R away from windows (to Linux)
I want to migrate my R workspace databases (e.g., .Rdata) from Windows to Linux. The R help file for "save" says that "[a]ll R platforms use the XDR representation of binary objects in binary save-d files, and these are portable across all R platforms."
Is it is simple as that? Copy the Windows .Rdata file to the Linux .ext3 file system?
Thanks,

Mongrel 0.3.13.4 Pre-Release -- Ruby''s LEAK Fixed (Death To Mutex!)
Howdy Folks,
This release is after painstaking analysis of a memory leak that was
reported by Bradley Taylor, reduced by myself, and then fixed after much
work. You should all thank Bradley for finding the bizarre fix.
It turns out the Ruby has a memory leak when you use pretty much any
thread locking primitive other than Sync (Mutex, Monitor, etc.):

[OT] *nix Server/Windows Client Tips and tricks
Sorry if this is too off topic, but one of the things
that happens when you use a *nix box is you have
opportunities to do some nifty tricks with shell
scripts and whatnot to help maintain your network.
Sometimes, this comes at the expense of using the
tools that come with some windows software and is
the result of necessity. Other times, this comes
because the "nifty" tools that come

Accessing ''many'' variables
Hi,
I have a class called Outlet which has_many Jacks. Apart from internal
id, each jack is unique by the attribute ''color''.
I''d like to iterate through each Outlet, and be able to output data
for a Jack of a certain color.
Say, I want to access the orange jack for the current outlet:
