I sure hope so: http://duckdown.blogspot.com/2006/03/additional-thoughts-on-why-ruby-isnt.html Seems like it''s getting genuine rebuttals, though. It''s actually kind of amusing.

Hi, normally I am doing all my webprojects with PHP. But now I am planning to use a framework, either Ruby On Rails, or Java in particular J2EE with Java Spring, or Struts Shale. Well, I already tried RoR a few month ago, so I am simply comparing it to the Java alternatives now. My problem is, that maybe using Java for my projects is like using a dredger to grub a small hole :) But on the other

Ubuntu 8.10 Desktop, Wine 1.1.13 (upgraded from 1.0.1 to try to solve my problem). I have used used Guitar Pro very recently without a problem. After a PSU failure, I had to reinstall the OS and downloaded and installed software, including Wine. Guitar Pro appeared to install properly and its splash screen was normal. Immediately the full program ran, a fatal error stopped it. I have a screen

Hello, I'm somewhat new to R. I've searched the archive for the last year and tried to consult the manual pages for the following problem, but did not find an answer. I want to sort an array by the index values. Here is the array >acc.gp.bl.wtmn Gp17 Gp4 1 0.5703125 0.6406250 10 0.7812500 0.7109375 11 0.8046875 0.7343750 12 0.8359375 0.7890625 13 0.8515625 0.7109375

hello Friends, I am a newbie to "Ruby or Ruby on Rails". A J2EE application architect at my day job. A fairly experienced PHP web-developer as well. After reading into the many articles on Ruby/ROR, have to admit looks pretty good so far. Really serious about getting into this and possibly developing some good Web 2.0 applications. Just wondering the best way to learn Ruby on

I have been struggling trying to write some code to produce all combinations subject to some restrictions. I thought someone might have some bright ideas. I have 11 values which fall into 5 groups. I want all combinations of 2,3, and 4 values where each value must be from a different group. The numbers in the groups are different. Here is a definition of the groups: groups <- list(gp1 =

My uncle recently bought a new computer and he wants me to help him install Guitar Pro. The thing is, he doesn't have Windows, and I'm thinking of installing Ubuntu with wine on the comp. Quiz time! Can you use wine, with GP, and if you can, deos it perform poorly in any ways?

I''m trying to create a sequence with no gaps in my db (contrived example, but should work out the same as my real one), and believe db-managed transactions are the way to go about this. It''s my first real ''go'' at transactions, so I may be mistaken about how things really work. Anyway.. Consider this example code: Class Invoice < ActiveRecord::Base def

Hi, a colleague ran a stepwise discriminant analysis twice in a row and got different results, suggesting some "sochasticity" in the algorithms involved. I looked at her data and found that there was a lot of collinearity, so that I reckoned that maybe "stepclass" (klaR) cannot find a clear winner when trying to include a new variable and makes a random choice. Is that true?

We have a fairly expensive task that we''d rather not schedule too many instances of in parallel. Couldn''t get pool_size to limit the amount of workers, and I figure that''s hardly optimal anyway, so would like to have the work queued up for a single named worker instead, running as soon as possible. Using MiddleMan.schedule_worker() with :job_key does start off a

Good day, does anyone here have a clue on how to make use of the NoSQL database "Riak" with Camping? I am building my website and Riak seems like pretty much the ultimate database! This would probably ruin every little feature in ActiveRecord, I don''t think I''d be able to do any has_many''s or belongs_to but I''d LOVE to be proven wrong. As far as

It seems like running sieve-filter from the console ignores the separator setting, thus not letting me filter into folder names containing dots. Normal delivery using lda handles it just fine, but not when using the sieve-filter command. Character not allowed in mailbox name: '.' Is there anyway to override this or is patching and recompiling the source my only option? # dovecot

Hello everyone! I seem to be have a bit of a problem setting up a few network folders for a my office on a Qnap storage device running Samba -v3.5.2. So I ask: when the 'write list' of a share contains ONLY groups, and a user tries to log on to that share, then samba authenticates against the primary group only of that user only?? Here is the example that fails: -the user is
