...n. We compromise something important in any solution; with start-time granulepos specifically we compromise the ability to easily find the total length of a stream, possibly some other stuff too. Even with the requirement of an empty EOS page (which is a hack IMHO) there is still the issue of trunctated streams, and it's less than optimal to require the codecs to decode the last page in order to find the total length. But I'm going to suggest that this is a really good time for such a discussion to take place, and really, the optimal time for this proposal to be evaluated (and prehap...

...d tags. For example. <a href=www.someplace.com>A really long string of words</a> becomes <a href=www.someplace.com>A really long... When run through the ''truncate'' function, leaving off the closing tag, causing untold trouble and chaos. On top of that, the trunctate function counts characters in the tag, so you end up getting somewhat less than what you asked for. So... is there a way to truncate html text properly? By this I mean a function or set of functions that returns a chunk of html with the tags properly closed and where the length of the text ou...

Dear friends, I have used R for some time now and have a tricky question about the coxph-function: To sum it up, I am not sure whether I can use coxph in conjunction with missing covariate data in a model with time-variant covariates. The point is: I know how "old" every piece that I oberserve is, but do not have fully historical information about the corresponding covariates. Maybe you

We have had some conversation within R core, lead by Duncan Murdoch and me, about a proposal to extend the current tracingState() functionality by something tentatively called debuggingState(). Duncan has allowed me to copy the previous conversation (after very minor editing): The following is quite technical and assumes you know more about R's debug()ing and trace()ing than an estimated

For the encryption functionality in the ZFS filesystem we use AES in CCM or GCM mode at the block level to provide confidentiality and authentication. There is also a SHA256 checksum per block (of the ciphertext) that forms a Merkle tree of all the blocks in the pool. Note that I have to store the full IV in the block. A block here is a ZFS block which is any power of two from 512 bytes to
