This is not true. No integer amount of dots will suffice to represent the real numbers, of which integers, rationals, algebraics, and delicious examples like pi^e are just an insignificant few.

Hi David I would love to see this "visual data analysis workbench" on SqueakMap and I guess there are quite some more people thinking so. regards, Martin

Exporting a Squeak Animation
by David Faught 30 May '03

30 May '03

Thanks again for your quick fix, Bert. It worked great! I like the idea of using Squeak to replace Powerpoint, unfortunately I need to put this stuff in Powerpoint to be able to share it with my Squeak-challenged co-workers. I uploaded one of the animations that I made using Bert's changes to: http://home.wi.rr.com/thefaughts/utilAnim.gif It is a plot of utilization on the Y axis by hour of the week on the X axis. There are 7 vertical grid areas that divide the days of the week. The animation cycles through 86 weeks of data with the most recent week, noted at the bottom, being the strongest color and the previous weeks gradually fading to the background. I'm only going to leave this file on the web site for a few days because it takes up a bunch of my space quota. The file is just under 1 MB. This particular animation is about 50% of the linear dimensions of the original to reduce its file size. This and the other animations were created using a kind of "visual data analysis workbench" written in Squeak. It was built specifically for this project, but it wouldn't take a lot of work to generalize it a bit to work with other data. I'm still debating about releasing it to the world, as it might fall in the category of competetive advantage for my employer. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

[IMPORTANT]SqueakMap moving soon!
by goran.krampe＠bluefish.se 30 May '03

30 May '03

Hi all! Short version for the impatient: Because of a move of the SM master server, SM will not be available for *changes* in the map (registering new packages etc) for approximately 1 hour on saturday - if all goes as planned. Plain *users* of the map should not notice anything - but if something weird happens you know what is going on. :-) Longer version for lovers of details: As some of you - ehrm - may be aware I have been fiddling with moving the master SM server to a box at squeakfoundation.org. That box is the same as modules.squeakfoundation.org - the server Cees set up a while ago for hosting Squeak modules. Doing this I have managed to shoot myself in the foot a couple of times (VirtualHosting configs in Apache can be ... tricky) and that have caused Daniel's packages to get offline, including the quite vital Package loader. BUT... now everything seems to work ok. This is the plan for the upcoming 24 hours: 1. The DNS name "map1.squeakfoundation.org" has just been retargeted to said machine. But since no SM server is running there yet nothing should happen. The clients are still trying map1, failing and then falling back on map2 which is still pointing at the machine here at Bluefish. In 24 hours the change should have propagated itself "all over the Internet". 2. At 12.00 GMT tomorrow saturday I will turn SqueakMap on map2 to readonly. It will say so on the webpage. I will then proceed by copying the map over to map1 (at squeakfoundation) and start the map there with writes enabled. 3. Finally I will shut down map2. I will add a webpage explaining that the map has moved to map1. (But this will be unavailable for an unknown period of time the following week when we move our office) When the map goes live at map1 all clients requesting updates will start going there instead automatically, since they have always tried map1 before map2. After this the correct web url to the master will be: http://map1.squeakfoundation.org/sm Later we can add an alias called "map" and also remove the trailing "/sm" but I need to fix some things in SM before that can be properly done. The move should make SM more stable and accessible. The new machine also has much better bandwidth - even though it is slower CPU-wise, but that shouldn't show. The master on map1 is also reinstalled with a fresh new VM from Ian running without X and with a vanilla 3.5 image + latest stable Comanche. This also makes it potentially more stable than the current master. regards, Göran PS. I did have to fix one silly bug when I moved over to new Comanche - there may be other bugs lurking, if you notice anything weird - please report. PSS. The new SM1.1 is moving forward, especially since Brian Rice is helping me with it. More about that later.

Re: Package upload space for all Squeakers (was Missing package in SqueakMap?)

Ok, didn't realize caching would affect that issue too. In that case, we can wait. Daniel goran.krampe(a)bluefish.se wrote: > Daniel Vainsencher <danielv(a)netvision.net.il> wrote: > > Works for me.
