ACLs and least surprise (was Samba vs. NetAppliance)

[LLVMdev] another SCEV surprise
When compile the following case and look at the SCEV analysis, I notice that the first two loops don't have a LoopInvariantBackedgeTakenCount (surprising) and the last one does (not surprising, except in the context of the first two examples). *void p4(int *A, int *B, long int n) {* * for (char i = 0; i < n; i++) {* * A[i + 2] = i;* * *B++ = A[i];* * }* *}* * * *void p5(int *A, int

Kickstart install surprise
I have to say that I was more that a bit surprised, if not to say dismayed when I booted a system with CentOS 5 installed to test a kickstart CD in interactive mode, took it to the custom partitioning screen, then rebooted without saving anything only to come up with a grub prompt, and the disk's partition table wiped. The ks.cfg file did say to wipe the disk when installing, but I would

[LLVMdev] Should LLVM JIT default to lazy or non-lazy?
>From where I sit, this boils down to a very simple question (modulo Chris's point): Either choice will surprise some users. Which surprise is worse? Personally, I'd always prefer correct but slow behavior by default, and explicitly enabling dangerous (but in some cases fast) behavior. I would also point out that it seems that most of the people new to the JIT are surprised by the

My new server
I bought a very cheap server yesterday - an HP ProLiant micro server for 160 euro (280 euro with 120 cashback, for some reason). But I was surprised when I opened the box to find it didn't come with keyboard or mouse, and doesn't have the old keyboard/mouse sockets, but requires USB versions. Is that the norm nowadays? Is it possible to convert the old keyboard/mouse plugs? Also there is

surprising difference in log()
Hello everybody My collegue and I noticed a strange behaviour of R on different platforms. It's a simple computation, but results are rather different. On Windows XP: > floor(log(8,2)) [1] 3 which is what one should expect. Here's instead the result with Mac OS X (same version, 2.5.0 (2007-04-23)) > floor(log(8,2)) [1] 2 Is it a "bug" in R or in the operating

Creating an environment with attributes in a package
Dear all, I am trying to create an environment object with additional attributes, viz. Foo <- structure(new.env(), name="Foo") Doing this in a standard session works fine: I get the environment with attr(,"name") set as expected. But if the same code appears inside a package source file, I get just the plain environment with no attributes set. Using a non-environment

I am surprised (and a little irritated)
I have started with using R on Windows, and I am really happy about the system. Now, one of my other ambitions is to learn how to use Linux, so yesterday I downloaded OpenSuse and installed that. The next problem was to try to use R with Linux. And there I met the wall. I've understood that RPM's are somewhat like installing programs on Windows, so that was downloaded and started

surprising behaviour of "bgroup": sets all in greek letters
Dear R user community I wanted to use "bgroup" for plotting a math formula with a big "{" on the left, and nothing on the right. i used text( 10, 10, pos=4, cex=1.8, expression(F(x) == bgroup("{", x, "")), ...) on a 40 x 20 plot. surprisingly, bgroup sets "Phi(xi) = { xi" i.e. replaces alphabetic characters with greek letters in the entire formula. I tried out other ending delimiters instead of "": With " ", ":", ";", ",", R complains about an "invalid group delimiter&qu...
