Psycho-acoustics research
Hi.
I'm an undergraduate linguistics major and computer science minor at
the University of Colorado in Boulder, and am taking a couple classes
this semester which give me the opportunity to do a research project -
one on introductory acoustics in the physics department, and one in
the linguistics department on phonetics and phonology. I've got an
idea, but I'd like to hear from anyone

mythical 1.0
Any chance of incrementing the ol'' version number a bit more
aggressively? Doing so could really help wxRuby adoption if done right:

Intercepting an onClick file download
Hi,
I''m having some trouble downloading a .csv file from a particular
website. The file isn''t part of a url, you need to click on a link in
order to get the file sent. I don''t know how to get mechanize to
correctly identify that.
Here is the link to the file I''m trying to retrieve:

setting request headers via get()
Hey all,
Found a email thread from Jan 2007 discussing the inability to set request
headers (like ETag and If-Modified-Since) through the API, and this is
something that''s bothering me a bit. Currently the "way" to do this is to
subclass Mechanize and override set_headers(). That seems fine for headers
that you''d like to send in every request or for classes of request,

Dealing with roaming machines
That's a good point. DHCP allows you to set DNS search parameters. So as
long as each location sets different search, "ssh fishbowl" will in fact
resolve to the proper local FQDN.

How to store a Mechanize object in the database?
Hi,
I am trying to save a Mechanize object in database (using a Rails Model).
But the save operation throws a TypeError

defined as a "text" type in the Model.

Off Topic: Statistical "philosophy" rant
R-Listers.
The following is a rant originally sent privately to Frank Harrell in
response to remarks he made on this list. The ideas are not new or original,
but he suggested I share it with the list, as he felt that it might be of
wider interest, nonetheless. I have real doubts about this, and I apologize
in advance to those who agree that I should have kept my remarks private.

OT: Jerry seems like such a polite chap
I always smile to myself when reading the replies on the mailing list from
Gerald (jerry) Carter. That cheers at the end of everything always makes it
seem that he is such a nice person. Of course half the reason I smile to
myself is the inanity of getting that impression from one word in an e-mail.
For all I know he is a complete jerk. And even the huge power lifters at

polite help request: Building Wine on Ubuntu / Kubuntu 6.06 (Dapper Drake)
Hello Karsten,
Please can you help clarify a couple of points in your how-to guide? We are
trying to install Wine on a 64-bit (dual core) Celeron system.
The general problem we are having is that it is not clear at what point to
perform the "configure" or "make" commands. We have followed your
instructions very closely, but some steps are unclear:

Performance problem
We use some Samba servers running SuSE 7.1 and samba 2.2.1a.
These servers are sometimes very slow while delivering data over the network. It is like a short sleep-mode followed by a wake up. We use Win 95, 98 and 98SE Clients.
Any ideas?
Thanks from germany,

Email Obfuscation Techniques
The other thread brought to my attention that only the <email> syntax
obfuscates mailto links. Plus, while the entity encoding technique
probably fools some scrapers, I doubt it's all that effective. Even
Gruber uses the Hivelogic Enkoder [1].
So, what are people using for obfuscation and are you using any
scripting or automation (filter that takes a pass before or after
Markdown) to

Hi,
This topic has come up previously, across the R e-mail lists and the spammers need not be subscribers (but could be), but simply reasonably competent HTML scrapers.
If you look at the online archives of the R lists, for example R-Devel for this month:

I agree that no action should be taken.
It's somewhat mystifying that the robot known as "Amy Kristen"
responds so quickly after my post, and with such regularity (so far
twice per hour), using perhaps several email addresses - and using the
correct "Reply-To" headers. But more mystifying is that she keeps the
same name the whole time. And lucky, I guess, because otherwise
