Re: Candid comment
<soap-box> While I agree with John about abuse of methodology, I can't subscribe to the "failure to read the manual" proposition. I don't mean to lecture, but it would seem to me that people who, like me, will probably gain far more from this list than we will be able to contribute (at least in the near term) owe it to those who will likely contribute far more than they

Fwd: Enduring LME confusion… or Psychologists and Mixed-Effects
In my undertstanding of the problem, the model lme1 <- lme(resp~fact1*fact2, random=~1|subj) should be ok, providing that variances are homogenous both between & within subjects. The function will sort out which factors & interactions are to be compared within subjects, & which between subjects. The problem with df's arises (for lme() in nlme, but not in lme4), when

Fascinating. The script runs fine in 3.2.5, but won't run in 3.4.3 even with ALL lines commented out. I have no idea what that means. I can't imagine I found a 3.4.3 bug no one knows about.

[RFC][PATCH] virtio balloon: kill tell-host-first logic
The virtio balloon driver has a VIRTIO_BALLOON_F_MUST_TELL_HOST feature bit. Whenever the bit is set, we must always tell the host before we free pages back to the allocator. Without this we might free a page (and have another user touch it) while the hypervisor is unprepared for it. But, if the bit is _not_ set, we are under no obligation to reverse the order. Furthermore, all modern qemus

Did i get hacked?
hello, i have a FreeBSD 4.8-PRERELEASE #0 that i use as a gateway / nat box for my home. It also acts as a dns / mail server to the outside world.

Wysiwyg html editor for note taking
I am looking for a wsyiwyg html editor for note taking as I build up a system to note what I am doing. I typically just use gedit, but this system's notes are getting complex, and using code tabs, lists, and the like would make it more enduring. I am looking at lonote on my F17 notebook, but I would like to do the note taking directly on the Centos system. Just basic html. Image

Metadata size
I''m a little concerned about the size of my metadata. I''m doing raid10 on both data and metadata, and: hrm@vlad:mnt $ sudo btrfs fi df /mnt Data: total=488.01GB, used=487.23GB Metadata: total=3.01GB, used=677.73MB System: total=11.88MB, used=52.00KB hrm@vlad:mnt $ find /mnt | wc -l 20137 By my calculations, that''s something on the order of 17.5K per filesystem

RExcel issues
Hi - For a while I've used RExcel without problems to run a repeating portfolio optimization problem where I solve for a portfolio allocation targeting a particular risk, then solve for a different risk, etc. I call the commands with (e.g.) rinterface.Rrun "(R command)" Recently that macro started blowing up, returning #RErrors, and when I try to trace the error I find that it is

Kudos and feature question
Kudos all that maintain this awesome and enduring piece of software. Awesome job, many thanks. I’ve come across a use case that would greatly benefit form a —delete-older-than <secs> argument. This would behave the same as —delete only sparing files dest that have a creating time less than <secs> ago. How hard would this be to implement? Where would I start ? TIA, Francois

[RFC] A new multidimensional array indexing intrinsic
After having spoken to Johannes, I think we had a classic misunderstanding on what "extending" means. 1. The most obvious why for me was changing GEP to allow variable-sized multi-dimensional arrays in the first argument, such as %1 = getelementptr double, double* %ptr, inrange i64 %i, inrange i64 %j (normally GEP would only allow a single index argument for a pointer-typed base
