Hard links to directories in OS X edit

(Just FYI.) The ability to make hard links to directories was added to OS X to support a form of de-duplication for Time Machine - Time Machine creates, on the backup volume, a duplicate directory hierarchy, giving the state of the file system at the time the backup was done, and, if a file or directory didn't change between two backups on the backup volume, they're hard-linked together, so there's only one copy. A "change" to a directory includes changes to anything underneath it, e.g. if foo/bar changed, so did foo.

(It would have been nice had Apple decided to go with ZFS, as I think the version of ZFS available at the time did de-duplication, so they wouldn't have had to use a hack involving hard links to directories - just use ZFS with de-duplication on backup volumes.) Guy Harris (talk) 17:38, 21 April 2014 (UTC)Reply

(talk page stalker) Deduplication feature in ZFS looks great but it comes with significant penalties, as between 1 and 5 GB of RAM is required for every TB of storage for storing and managing deduplication tables. Thus, hard links are a much more efficient solution for deduplicating (compressed) backup files. — Dsimic (talk | contribs) 17:52, 21 April 2014 (UTC)Reply

OER inquiry edit

Hi Qwertyus, I'm sending you this message because you're one of about 300 users who have recently edited an article in the umbrella category of open educational resources (OER) (or open education). In evaluating several projects we've been working on (e.g. the WIKISOO course and WikiProject Open), my colleague Pete Forsyth and I have wondered who chooses to edit OER-related articles and why. Regardless of whether you've taken the WIKISOO course yourself - and/or never even heard the term OER before - we'd be extremely grateful for your participation in this brief, anonymous survey before 27 April.

Twitter diplomacy edit

Hi, Qwertyus.

I'm not sure how best to address your concern with the Twitter diplomacy page; it's my first article.

I created the Twitter diplomacy page. I'm a master's student in Russia, and I chose this topic to satisfy a requirement for one of my courses. It's not an ad; I have no affiliation with Twiplomacy nor with anyone listed in the article.

The article uses Twiplomacy's numbers only to highlight the main point of the article, which is that diplomats and foreign publics are getting closer thanks to Twitter. Why did you not highlight this article as an ad for Twitter?

The page is much more robust than those for digital diplomacy and Facebook diplomacy, two pages that barely qualify as articles. If the references to Twiplomacy are so contentious, some of them can be removed. I'm not sure why deletion of the entire page or "blowing it up and starting over" is your proposed solution.

Thanks. Dave — Preceding unsigned comment added by D.a.kelm (talkcontribs) 17:22, 27 April 2014 (UTC)Reply

Because I feel the entire article hinges on that website's research. The way it's presented (first assert that Twitter is very important by WP:OR, then extensively cite one piece of research from a commercial party) looks suspiciously similar to the kind of spam that many companies dump on Wikipedia.
(You're right that the other two pages are of very low quality.) QVVERTYVS (hm?) 18:15, 27 April 2014 (UTC)Reply

Quicksort Article changes edit

This is with reference to the wikipedia quicksort article : [4]. I did some minor changes which you reverted back. I am a new user so please help me out. The problem that I wanted to resolve was that in even 120% resolution, the code was overflowing towards the right into the image. I wanted to correct that so I introduced the 'pre' tag for the code with auto scrolling enabled. I can't understand how it is breaking the existing code though.

Also, while using the 'pre' tag, if I want to bold the font then what should I do, because the normal ' ' ' are not working and instead show up in the rendered version of the page.

Hope you can give me some pointers. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Harshitm26 (talkcontribs) 19:12, 1 June 2014 (UTC)Reply

Quicksort edit

Hi Qwertyus,

I found an error on the Quicksort page so am hoping you can verify the fix and get it changed somehow. I'm new to this so am unfamiliar to the procedure. I see you have made some changes in the past so am hoping you can help me out.


On the page

Original page

Under the C# section

The line

loe.Add(pivot_val);

Should be changed to

resultSet.Add(pivot_val);

loe gets sorted and added to resultSet before that point, but loe is never used again after that. If the pivot_val is added to loe then the pivot_val is lost.


Also, a small speed boost can be had by changing the line

gt.Add(pivot_val);

To

gt.Insert(0, pivot_val);

Since we know that pivot_val is between loe and gt, we can save some sorting time by placing pivot_val at the beginning of gt instead of at the end.

Mohammad Burhanuddin article edit

Dear Qwertyus, I think your aim is to have NPOV maintained and I perfectly agree with you and I am first person to honour Wiki rules as I am a big fan of Wiki and I respect and value it all above any media in the world as it is self correcting a sea of information.

I don't think that there should be third person (they are also part and partial of Wiki like us, but we should not give chance to bother them, being true wikipedian) to be involved when there are two editors working for the cause of Wiki.

I understand that I am a DB and it is but natural that I have some inclination toward it, but please make it sure that my intention is never to suppress any true or well published information. As I know, all the inside facts of DB more then you and you are the third neutral party so you can judge where my language is tilting towars one side, and you have all the freedom given by Wiki to make the sentence/information best to NPOV. But incomplete information/ wrong information, which has solution available in media is to be well presented for purpose of general viewer remaining in the limit of Wiki, as there are elements available to make propoganda using Wiki, and we must avoid it at any cost.--Md iet (talk) 03:17, 26 July 2014 (UTC)Reply

redundant flow control code because of code that is never reached edit

Your reversal of my edit of the code example in the lemma Fork (system call) ignores the reason for the change: removal of unneeded flow control; the comments /* NEVER REACHED */ were only added to make it explicit. I rather see you reverse your reversal than that I start a flip flop.

In the code example when a certain condition is met the if block of code ends execution, i.e. no code thereafter is run in that case. For that reason putting the code that is to be run when the condition in *not* met in an else block is superfluous and adds unneeded levels of indenting and so forth. In fact having code in an else block when the if block ends execution is outright bad coding. (BTW. many seasoned libraries offer calls that do some sanity checks on entry, not in a sequence of if .. else if .. and so forth, but just a sequence of simple if blocks that each exits (return) from the call when the sanity check fails).

Besides, the given reason for the reversal, that the never reached comments are redundant because any C programmer understands that exit() ends execution is beside the point. Examples are to be understood a well as possible by non experienced programmers, by people with possibly no knowledge of the semantics of the standard C libs. --Paul Oranje (talk) 12:48, 6 August 2014 (UTC)Reply

The extra level of indentation shows the symmetry of the three cases. In real code, I would in fact put all three cases in a switch with the parent as the default case, but I'm avoiding that to make the code readable to non-C programmers. It's also more robust to change, although I find this a matter of taste (not one of "outright bad coding") and I don't care too much about it. Note that only the -1 case is an error check. The other two cases are parent and child, not error and success.
Your comments are overly verbose and distracting, though, and you won't find such comments in seasoned libraries. Any sane programmer can figure out that exit exits the program. QVVERTYVS (hm?) 08:20, 7 August 2014 (UTC)Reply

Quicksort and Stack (abstract data type) articles edit

Hello! Regarding your edit on the Stack (abstract data type) article, just wanted to let you know that I simply didn't have the energy required to dive into the provided content, and I've moved it over to Quicksort article pretty much in a blind manner. However, in my opinion numerous examples from the Stack (abstract data type) article should be simply deleted leaving only one, perhaps what's available in Stack (abstract data type) § Expression evaluation and syntax parsing). All those examples are simply making a complete mess of that article. Thoughts? — Dsimic (talk | contribs) 08:37, 7 August 2014 (UTC)Reply

Well, it didn't really fit in either article because its terminology is different from the rest of Quicksort, and the terminology wasn't explained in the context of Stack (abstract data type) either. I think WP is better off without this example anywhere; it could probably be improved using the reference that was at the bottom of it, but I don't have the time/energy to go after this either and I honestly don't care too much.
Re: trimming the number of examples: I do think backtracking, or maybe just DFS, is an important and easy to explain application of stacks, but you're right that the examples are taking up far too much space. QVVERTYVS (hm?) 08:46, 7 August 2014 (UTC)Reply
Just as a note, I'm totally fine with deleting Quicksort as an example there.

What can admins do in this case? edit

Regarding WP:AN3#User:Md iet reported by User:Qwertyus (Result: ). Do you have a recommendation of what admins can do? I had an exchange at User talk:Md iet#Notice of Edit warring noticeboard discussion and the response was cooperative, though I don't know if there may be an ongoing problem that the user is refusing to address. Since you're experienced and you don't seem to be a partisan in the dispute you may have some advice on what to do. Though I see the outline of the dispute clearly (two rival claimants to the succession) I'm not sure what role Md iet has played in the editing problems and I don't know how to fix whatever's broken. Thanks, EdJohnston (talk) 20:28, 28 August 2014 (UTC)Reply

Let me share my view of the problem first.
I'm not actually sure if Md iet is partisan in the conflict as such; the edits that led to my report cite claims by one party as fact, while restoring self-published sources from the other party as well. It looks like the problem is more one of WP:TRUTH than picking sides, with a preference for partisan primary sources and their claims over outsider news outlets that put these claims into perspective.
And indeed, I'm non-partisan. I'd never heard of this whole sect until I noticed the heavy editing in Special:RecentChanges. I decided to get involved when I found out that there are actually good third-party sources about the conflict, but WP was making a mess of (mis-)citing them. QVVERTYVS (hm?) 13:53, 29 August 2014 (UTC)Reply
In the case of a real-world dispute, if there is a constant stream of non-neutral or poorly-informed edits admins will sometimes resort to full protection. Do you think that's a good choice here? It does not prevent all progress because people can still make WP:Edit requests. EdJohnston (talk) 15:44, 29 August 2014 (UTC)Reply
Thanks for taking so much interest in the issue ,and guiding on Wiki rules. You may be furious against repeated undo of your revision, but so I am. I have taken your reporting the case for 3RR in a positive way and I don't have any grienance on your reaction, as it is a human behaviour. I request you to kindly go through my explanation below. Although I declared that I belong to the sect, I have full respect for Wiki, and your intentions are also well clear that you are hard fighting for the same.

The main difference between you and me is I know in and out of DB and trying to put complete things in a manner best to NPOV, as reported in the sources. There is tradition with DB supreme authority, our religious heirarchy. They believe that there action are god driven and they need not give explanation to anybody. In the process neither they involve in any press conference or issue their comnfidential document/reports/information to general media/public. They allow the limited disclosure only through legal commitee or website like Mumenin. The information revealed in our community discourse are also not allowed to be photographed or recorded without their specific anouncement topic to topic. Hence it is very difficult to get internal information on mass media. Same is the case with Dairy matter.

Let me disclose you the another fact, which is related with critisised action of london hospital reports blown up by media/ hufingon post/ involving American doctors reports etc. A complete video recording of the incident showing late Syedna on London hospital bed was telecasted all over the world for DB and presented wherever DB live in a public discourse. I was witness and it has clearly presentation of each and every step of action of 4th June, 2014, where late syedna has openly declared his succession in a clearcut gesture in presence of his family where his eldest son Qadir as well as mufaddal was present among. Although the voice of late syedna was not clear or we could understand, but all the ceremony was perfectly making clear what intentions he has, and body language of every body present their including late Syedna was so clear that no body can have any doubt on ceremony. Regarding consuming 'sharbat'(a gesture sweat drink), the video clearly indicate every body consuming the same after ceremony completed, and late syedna also had first test as a ruital, may be only a indicative gesture, as his condition was not well, but sharbat was first presented to him as respect, and he tested it. After the ceremony Qadir wanted to bow down to feet of Mufaddal as respect of highest religious authority, but mufaddal didnot allow his elder brother bowing to him and they hugged each other with face (as of tears in eyes) of Muffadal in gratitude.

This all above facts are not known to general public, and our religious heirarchy is least bothered as they know that they are right. This is disclosed to you by me because you are taking interest in the DB matters and your intentions are pretty neat and clean. So as mine but difference is I know the facts and I can sense the mischief. But as a human being, the POV factor comes in picture and for Wiki presentation has it's limitations and we have to present the matter in best encyclopedian manner I understand. General public only recognise the information, presented on reliable media, and we all know about the integrity of media reporters and their main intentions making things sensual/dramatic to get max.attention /sale of their news. Wiki is the only media where a free, fair and self correcting matter can be available.I request your cooperation within limit of Wiki rules. Please go through the following explation also I presented:

EdJohnston, Thanks for hearing my above appeal in last para and deciding favourably. I feel that I am blocked for on the reasons of my reverts of last complain of user Dear Qw, and further recommendations of Dear Anup. I accept of my fault of too aggressive while facing unjust, but please don't blame for violating Wiki rules knowingly, which is a unjust for Wiki fan like me.May Please have a look at my following analysis:
Diffs of the my reverts in sequence

1.10:01, 23 July 2014 (UTC) "Undid revision 617429012 by Qwertyus (talk) unjustified removal. Rather removing please make it important information readable.":

Undo was done on 23 rd July as earlier deletion by User:Qwertyus was done without proper explanation on 18th July. The inclusion of material from primary source(even further marked as [unreliable source?] to not to mis guide viewer) was done( This matter was properly discussed in talk page at [5] where User:Qwertyus himself was involved, and the matter further sustained there till 20th Aug ([6], when a particular editor user:summichum has intensely removed it, without proper reasoning.)

(All the material including well sourced material was immediately deleted again by User:Qwertyus within 4 minutes (second deletion 2RR) .)

2.10:15, 23 July 2014 (UTC) "Undid revision 618101779 by Qwertyus (talk) revised , may please discuss at talk page before further removal.":

I reinstated material, with request for discussion before further removal, ( but all the material again deleted within 2 min.)

3.07:17, 24 July 2014 (UTC) "Undid revision 618103062 by Qwertyus (talk)":

I reinstated the material on 24 th Aug with due revision deleting matter of dairy (which User:Qwertyus had some reservations) and requested for discussion at talk page before further removal.

All the three steps above are well justified as:

1. My first revision (23 rd July,10:01)was well discussed at talk page.

2. Second revision (23rd July, 10:15) was also well justified as deletion by User:Qwertyus was done within 2 mins of my inclusion without any further explanation or discussion 23rd july, 10:03.

User:Qwertyus has not restrained himself, even after after my request for discussion he has again deleted the matter third time, within 4 mins a clear 3RR[ https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Mohammed_Burhanuddin&action=history, 23rd July , 10:19]

3.My third step is also justified as I restrained myself after two immediate deletion of User:Qwertyus I did not do third revision, I valued User:Qwertyus reservations on inclusion of primary source, deleted matter of dairy part, and done the third revision which sustained till 20th Aug, when User:Qwertyus has again deleted the remaining well sourced material also [7] a 4RR case. My above explanation proves that I was not at all of any fault three reverts noted in July by User:Qwertyus in a previous 3RR complaint. This does not prove allegation that I ‘continues to make edits that are questionable under our sourcing rules so long as they favor his particular faction’ .

In the present complaint , comment that ‘this diff it sounds like Md iet is acting as a lawyer for one of the parties’ seems a bit aggressive , everybody has right to have his own POV, only thing is in Wiki rules are to be followed first. My justification at [8] are within wiki rules and I cannot be blamed or blocked for that.

For the comment : ‘When regular editors need to spend this much time undoing his changes it is evidence of a pattern of disruption’ I am really sorry that I had that impression, but I assure that after this controversy , I had a big lesson that why inline citation is important, and why Wiki made it’s rules so strict. Wiki is just a free and fair self correcting encyclopedia , which anybody can trust, but there are elements which can misutilise it. Hence so many rules.

Earlier my thought was that you place best and true information available on Wiki, and people will automatically add proper sources whenever it is available. This is not so true for controversial cases. Now I am treating all the cases as cotraversial and started editing accordingly. Mr. Anup, you will not find the case, you noticed earlier. I repeat, please don't blame me any further for violating Wiki rules knowingly, which is a unjust and a big insult for Wiki fan like me.

My problem is I can not accept that editor like user: summichum force their POV and make Wiki a platform to launch his agenda to openly marginalised complete Shia community(pl.see).

I am no one to be here for breaking Wiki rules, and my above lengthy explanation proves it. I least bother about Block, but more worried about Wiki reputation, may please cooperate.Md iet (talk) 13:42, 29 August 2014 (UTC)--Md iet (talk) 04:44, 30 August 2014 (UTC)Reply

Please read WP:TRUTH where the primacy of verifiability is explained. I know news outlets are not always to be trusted, but they're in principle better than stakeholders/claimants in a dispute.
Re: the rest of this, please take it to EdJohnston's talk page, or directly to a discussion/report board; I may have reverted too often or too fast, and if I did, I'll bear the consequences.
(But please indent your posts next time.) QVVERTYVS (hm?) 19:35, 1 September 2014 (UTC)Reply

Deletion of Adobe-Systems edit

Hi Qwertyus, thank you for your prompt reaction to the article Adobe-Systems. Although your reaction is legitimate, I wanted to let you know that the purpose of this new article is not exactly to duplicate the existing Adobe Systems article. On the contrary, the ultimate objective here is to propose a replacement in some way of the old one that has been around for more than 10 years and is in large part obsolete: several references and content are out of date. The new article is substantially updated and structured. Although I did consult another editor on this issue, I thought that the first strategy is to publish this new version and let the community decide what to do with it. If you know of better way to proceed with this operation, please let me know and I will be glad to go along with that. For now, I would appreciate that you lift your "speedy deletion" tag and propose an open debate on the article. Tell me what you think and I will be glad to listen to you. Thank you. Bostonscribe (talk) 14:33, 2 September 2014 (UTC)Reply

That's not how it works. If you want the old article out of the way, you can either edit it or post suggestions on the talk page; you can keep your alternative version in your own namespace for reference if you want. Forking an article because you don't disagree with the content is not done. QVVERTYVS (hm?) 14:38, 2 September 2014 (UTC)Reply

Minor Edit to Scikit-Learn edit

Hey, thanks for checking over my minor edit of the page scikit-learn. I think the sentence should indeed have "are" though. The sentence reads:

Among its users is Evernote, which uses the library to distinguish recipes from other user posts through a naive Bayes classifier,[6] and Mendeley, which builds recommender systems from scikit-learn's SGD regression algorithm.

or eliminating the adjective clauses, we have

Among its users is Evernote and Mendeley.

The subject of the sentence is "Evernote and Mendeley" hence requiring "are". — Preceding unsigned comment added by Monsterman222 (talkcontribs) 22:57, 4 September 2014 (UTC)Reply

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/DATE (command) edit

Hello,

I hope I am not bothering you but Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/DATE (command) badly needs more input from the community. It has been relisted twice before and in spite of me having tried to publicize it before, is still at the risk of being closed without a consensus. The reason that I am calling you is that last time, I've been told to invite people that are more connected to the matter. I guess as a participant of Articles for deletion/Date (Unix), you clearly fit the bill.

Subject of the nomination is: "Wikipedia is not a manual and this article is written exactly like a man page."

Thanks in advance.

Hello, this is just to let you know that I've granted you Rollback rights. Just remember:

HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 20:13, 3 October 2014 (UTC)Reply

Hi HJ Mitchell,
Thanks for the sign of trust, but can I get rid of this facility again? I just accidentally clicked it, and I'm afraid I'll do that again, because my diff view is now cluttered with five undo buttons: three clearly distinguishable ones from Twinkle, the standard one, and the one from rollback. Rollback has no benefit for me as I can perform the same action with Twinkle (which has the version that doesn't ask for confirmation colored red, so I won't click it by accident).
TIA, QVVERTYVS (hm?) 14:41, 8 October 2014 (UTC)Reply

Suffix automaton edit

 

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a search with the contents of Suffix automaton, and it appears to be very similar to another Wikipedia page: suffix automaton. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page— you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case. If you are intentionally trying to rename an article, please see Help:Moving a page for instructions on how to do this without copying and pasting. If you are trying to move or copy content from one article to a different one, please see Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia and be sure you have acknowledged the duplication of material in an edit summary to preserve attribution history.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. CorenSearchBot (talk) 20:24, 7 October 2014 (UTC)Reply
