| * replaceafill starts installing natty | 17:55 | |
| * svaksha pores over R libraries | 17:56 | |
| th1a | svaksha: Why R? | 18:00 |
|---|---|---|
| th1a | replaceafill: I think I'm going to pull the trigger on the SSD. | 18:01 |
| svaksha | th1a: am using it for statistical calculations | 18:01 |
| replaceafill | th1a, you mean not going to buy it? | 18:02 |
| th1a | Oh... idiom alert... | 18:02 |
| replaceafill | :D | 18:02 |
| th1a | "pull the trigger" means "go ahead" | 18:02 |
| th1a | Not "kill it" ;-) | 18:03 |
| replaceafill | ah! i thought you were going to kill it | 18:03 |
| replaceafill | :D | 18:03 |
| th1a | I suppose it reflects Americans' oddly positive view of guns. | 18:04 |
| * svaksha thinks small statistics like variation, etc... may be useful in schooltool too? | 18:04 | |
| svaksha | replaceafill: i would have thought so too | 18:04 |
| th1a | Yes, but we should be able to do it in Python. | 18:04 |
| th1a | I think I caught myself before telling svaksha that something was "out of left field" the other day. | 18:05 |
| th1a | Baseball metaphors are probably not helpful either! | 18:05 |
| replaceafill | :)) | 18:06 |
| replaceafill | th1a, do you know if you have to tweak ubuntu so the SSD works well? | 18:08 |
| replaceafill | i was reading about turning journaling off | 18:09 |
| replaceafill | to avoid some writes | 18:09 |
| svaksha | out of left field? | 18:09 |
| th1a | Well, if you don't care about optimizing your drive you don't have to optimize it. | 18:10 |
| svaksha | ^^ that is what it means? | 18:10 |
| * svaksha is more confused | 18:10 | |
| th1a | No. :-D | 18:10 |
| th1a | "out of left field" is just... meaning something is kind of coming from nowhere. | 18:11 |
| svaksha | ah, k | 18:11 |
| th1a | I might not have been talking to you svaksha. | 18:11 |
| th1a | I read about people optimizing their SSD drives for Windows, but basically they were turning off things like journaling, etc. that do actually have a purpose. | 18:12 |
| th1a | But if you just want to see how fast they'll go, you would turn them off. | 18:12 |
| th1a | In this case the USB 2.0 interface, or maybe the USB > SATA bridge would probably the the bottlenecks anyhow. | 18:14 |
| replaceafill | ah! i thought you wanted it for your laptop | 18:14 |
| th1a | Although you might want to figure out which filesystem works best to extend the life of the flash. | 18:14 |
| th1a | No, this is for the PandaBoard. | 18:15 |
| replaceafill | right | 18:15 |
| th1a | (and/or one of my computers) | 18:15 |
| th1a | I'm not billing the project for this stuff. | 18:15 |
| replaceafill | :D | 18:15 |
| th1a | An SSD drive is actually a good deal compared to a high-end usb key drive. | 18:16 |
| th1a | In particular I'd think having a cache would make a big difference. | 18:17 |
