Regarding your email to a Sonic.net customer: Due to a problem with an e-mail server, it appears that we may have lost or deferred some percentage of the e-mail that was received here at Sonic.net on Tuesday and early Wednesday morning. Internet e-mail transport is designed to be completely fail-safe, and in fact the logs on the server indicate that it was successfully making deliveries, but it

How do you IT guys diagnose the problem with a spotty internet connection? Just spent an hour on the phone with TWC/Spectrum. Of course they don't see anything wrong with their service. They send me to speedtest.net. The first attempt, the page didn't fully load, the second attempt, the page didn't load at all, the third attempt, it loaded. On a 20/2MB line I get 24.83/2.47MB. The

Dear R People: Are your undergraduate students receptive to learning R, as a rule? Most of the time, mine really like it. But this semester, they act as though they are being eaten by rats when learning R. They are not trying at all. Any similar experiences?

Help solving a performance mystery would be welcome. I have two test programs: * one totally CPU bound (it just infinitely loops) * the other I/O bound (it loops, each time doing * a write, * an fsync or fdatasync (I get similar behavior with either), * an lseek to back up to the same position again Under ext2, if I run these two together, they each run nearly as fast as
