My proposal for a BOF session at ETech was accepted! Any Rails-folk in attendance on Tuesday are encouraged to come to Elizabeth Ballroom A between 8:30-930pm. http://conferences.oreillynet.com/cs/et2006/view/e_sess/9113 The goal for the session is to discuss how we can empower ourselves to return to our local peer communities and advocate Rails as the web development technology people

I just finished posting an article on creating a lightweight but very functional web grid that does a slick job of live updating whatever content you put in. Much like Rails itself, I pulled the code from an active project effort, in the hopes that others would find it useful. http://unspace.ca/discover/datagrid Or, for the impatient, give the demo a shot: http://unspace.ca/datagrid Feedback

I just published a new article on how and why (and when!) to do away with paginated search results, in favour of a more natural, endlessly scrolling page. http://unspace.ca/discover/pageless/ I provide code and an example of how to implement this in Rails and Prototype. Opinions and suggestions welcomed! Pete Unspace Interactive Inc. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You

I just finished my latest contribution, "Open Says Me". http://unspace.ca/discover/opensaysme/ Managing the browser experience using JavaScript, Ajax and a Cookie. It''s built on top of Rails, of course. Feedback is always appreciated! Pete

Just checking. I''m new in town, and somewhat new to Ruby on Rails. -- joshua

Hey everyone, I came back from Canada on Rails and was so inspired that I wrote an article on the plane. http://unspace.ca/discover/expectations/ It''s my attempt to distill what I have learned so far, working on AJAX applications in Rails that people will hopefully want to use. Feedback is appreciated! Pete

I have a linux server with some jobs at cron, that job reads some files from windows stations, i read these files via samba. My problem is that all works perfectly until the windows station reboots (it reboots every nite but no way to know exact time), at morning when linux should restart the process the mounted drive is dead, i try to umount/mount the drive from cron every morning but nothing, I

Ryan McMinn as well as myself from Unspace Interactive are going to ETech next week. We know fellow Torontonian David Crow will be there with bells on. And clearly DHH is coming to do his workshop. Who else is coming, and is there any interest in trying to do a Rails BOF during the main conference? Obviously a lot of folks are going to do the workshop, but most people don''t arrive

Folks, I know this must be a configuration problem. Just changed servers last nite -- an interim server running 1.6.1.6. Copied all of /etc/asterisk to the new server and fired it up. Now I'm getting: [Oct 14 12:28:10] ERROR[8471]: cdr_pgsql.c:309 pgsql_log: Failed to insert call detail record into database! [Oct 14 12:28:10] ERROR[8471]: cdr_pgsql.c:310 pgsql_log: Reason: ERROR: syntax

Greetings all, I have been working with RStudio and R only for a little while. I came across a package called 'reshape' that helped me 'rename' columns. Unfortunately, my computer got hosed (too much playing with linux too late at nite) and I had to re-install everything, BUT when I tried to reinstall 'reshape' or 'reshape2' I COULDN't. Is there a way to get

Hey all, I was playing around with IAXTEL last nite and have outgoing calls working a treat. I'm sure I woke a few people up in the US with my annoying test calls. :) Anywayz, incoming calls are a different matter. I have a NAT firewall my * box is sitting behind and the server 'appears' to have registered correctly with IAXTEL. Thing is, when I try and call my 1700 number

Greetings all - happy new year, I''m having problems getting Pdf::Writer image insertion. pdf.image "/path/to/images/logo.jpg" is firing "JPEG marker not found!" Originally created the RGB (8 bit) JPEG in photoshop. After the above, I''ve exported with an alternate tool using (OSX) preview. This tutorial

Hi All, I've been fiddling around with various ways to estimate the popularity of R, SAS, SPSS, Stata, JMP, Minitab, Statistica, Systat, BMDP, S-PLUS, R-PLUS and Revolution R. It's not an easy task. You can see what I've come up with so far at http://r4stats.com/popularity . I'm sure people will have plenty of ideas on how to improve this, so please let me know what you think.

Hi It seems like classes.txt file is not being created when I run puppet on my servers. I am running puppet without a puppet master. I use subversion to pull the manifests on each of the boxes and run this command to run puppet. puppet apply --verbose /path/to/manifest My puppet version is puppet 2.6.4. My puppet.conf file looks like this: [main] # The Puppet log directory. # The

I''m currently planning a social app in Rails that relies on being able to see how far you are from everyone else. It''s my intention to store rough geo-coordinates as part of the sign up process. My intention is to capture their zipcode or postal code, and then be able to query a webservice once for that data. It''s also possible that there might be a database or even

Hi, first of all, sorry for failing to keep a regular schedule. The next LLVM GTA social is going to be August 29. I think the Harbord House (http://www.harbordhouse.ca) is working fine, so if no one has a better suggestion lets meet there at 19:00. Just reply to me if you are going so that I know how many to book for. Cheers, Rafael

Hi, Here is a rough draft of the application -- a FORTRAN front-end to LLVM. In accordance with the summer of code specifications it is split into two portions: the abstract which describes the project, and the details description which describes me and how I plan to complete the project. It's a little long, (but about half the max length the application directions specify). Would someone be

Getting the front end for Fortran finished is definitely something I would be interested in working on. I will draft up a little proposal and send it out to this list. -Scott On 3/19/07, Kenneth Hoste <kenneth.hoste at ugent.be> wrote: > Hi Scott, > > On 18 Mar 2007, at 04:22, Scott Fortmann-Roe wrote: > > > Hi, > > > > I noticed that LLVM had signed up as a

I''m trying to create a list of doctors with names and surnames. I want to be able to add many doctors using AJAX and then save all of them at the same time. All the doctors are associated to a patient. I want to do something like the datagrid in http://unspace.ca/datagrid/update but I would like to use RJS because this fellow used javascript before RJS came out. And also, they are
