similar to: I am a newbie and I would like some help deciding w hat operating system

I would like first to introduce my self to the community. I am Steve Beyer and I am interested in learning Ruby, ROR, and how to set up a production server. I am going to use OSX for my client/developement system but I would like to get some advice on what operating system you would recommend for a production server. I want to use Mongrel to start and then move up the ladder as my

For a fast, lightweight and fun to use distro try ZenWalk, based on slackware. You can download the ''core'' version to build the server with just the packages you need... www.zenwalk.org Have fun!

Yo Zed, Just curious -- what do you think of the LiteSpeed server? Is it better than Lighty? Does it (gasp!) also serve Rails apps like Mongrel? I think I read that LiteSpeed doesn''t have proxying support. Thanks, Joe __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

Calling All Mongrel Minions! I wanna have some fun and would like this as a Christmas present. The site http://www.workingwithrails.com/ has this lame popularity system that''s kind of irking some of the main Ruby contributors. I think it''s kind of funny, but would like to demonstrate what an army of motivated people can do to these kinds of popularity contests. So, as a

I''m trying to run on trunk. When I run "rake -T" I get an error: undefined local variable or method `full_config'' for Merb::Orms::Sequel:Module I''m not 100% sure that I haven''t messed something up, so I hesitate to cry "bug" without checking with everyone. Is anyone else seeing this? P.S. I''m running merb trunk installed as a gem,

Has anyone had troubles from Mongrel > 1.0.1? Just curious, because the last time I tried to run Merb it gave me some Mongrel error about the wrong number of arguments, or something like that. I can post the exact message tonight when I get home. -- Cheers, Kevin Williams http://kevwil.com/ http://www.almostserio.us/ http://kevwil.jaiku.com/

I''m running a site that gets ~30k to 40k page hits per day. In the last 4 days my mongrel processes have been jumping into high CPU usage a couple of times a day to the point where my site becomes unresponsive (database on a diff machine with no load). The only way for me to resolve the problem and reduce load on the machine is to delete my rails cache directory (I have plenty of space

I''m following merb trunk. This morning I updated my gems, sync''d merb source and installed the merb gem from source. I don''t know if I did something wrong, or if a new gem messed things up, or if there was a merb change which broke something. Now I get this error: Request: REQUEST_URI: / (2007-11-05 20:27:04) Params: {"action"=>"index",

The new router in Rails 3 is clean and concise and marks the acceptance of instance_exec as a method for writing a gorgeous DSL. I''m wondering should something similar be applied to the default form helpers? Moving from this: <%= form_for(@post) do |f| %> <%= f.text_field :title %> <% end %> to this: <%= form_for(@post) do %> <%= text_field :title %>

Hello everyone! Congratulations by this gorgeous software. My name is Germán Carrillo, I'm writting from Colombia.

Hi, I have a file of the following type: id a b 1 0.5 5 2 0.7 15 3 1.6 7 4 0.5 25 .................... I would like to plot the data in column a on the y-axis and the corresponding data in column id on the x-axis, so plot(a~id). However I would like to colour these points according to the data in column b. column b data may be colour coded into the

Hi, newbie question. I have a data-frame with 3 named columns: Name, Obs1, Obs2. The Name column members are made of alphanumeric characters: T1, T2, T3 etc. I would like to acess only that subset of the data-frame with Name == T44. X <- dataframe[dataframe$Name=='T44'] does not work. Any ideas on how to do this? I'm sure I'm missing a simple concept here. Thanks, Anjan --

Hi, I sent an email to Mark Fisheh of Oracle Corp. & posted this issue at OTN under Linux thread this morning. I hope that someone among you might have experienced this and can help. On that basis, I am sending this to you too. I am stuck & will really appreciate if you can shed some light on this. Thanks. Anjan

Hi, A simple quantile question: I need to calculate the 95% and 5% quantiles (aka percentiles) for the following data: 67.12 64.51 62.06 55.45 51.41 43.78 10.74 10.14 if I use the formula: 95% quantile point= 95 (8+1)/100, I get the 8.55th point as the 95% quantile. Which does not make too much sense as I have only 8 data points. The other option is to use (95*8)/100 = 7.6th data point (which can

Hi, I'm having a problem with a step that should be pretty simple. I have a dataframe, d, with column names : gene s1 s2 s3. The column "gene" stores an Id; the rest of the columns store intensity data. I would like to extract the rows for gene Ids i1, i2, i3 ( I know a priori that those rows exist). So I do this: subset(d, gene %in% c(i1, i2, i3)). This does not give me the

Hi, I have two vectors, each of length 45000. How do I compare the vectors to ascertain if they are identical. Secondly if they are NOT identical, how do I determine the indices of positions at which the vectors differ?

I've had success on "older" model Lenovos.....(T-410 / T-420 / T-430) but anything beyond those seems to have some issue or another. I was even able to swap the standard drive to an SD (250GB) on a T-430 and it's running g like a champ. A lot of the newer stuff is OK as long as you don't have any boutique drivers for video network or sound. YMMV. On Sep 29, 2016 9:18 PM, John

Most books on R I come across describe running statistical procedures in R. Any suggestions on a good book that teaches *programming* in R?

Hi, I have a data set of 47 columns. I would like to create a boxplot for each column, each boxplot of a different colour. So I created a vector "col1". This vector has a subset of the colors returned by color()- "red", "cyan", "green" etc. Now I use the command: boxplot(dataset, col= col1) expecting to see 47 boxplots, each of a different colour. Here is
