I'm programmer, I been looking inside RonPaul2012.com source code to see if you can parse the amount of money that Ron Paul raise. I found that the flash application is using this php page to parse the data:

http://www.ronpaul2012.com/...

So it's late now, but maybe for the next money bomb you can use that to create the charts in real time.
Good luck.

Thanks for the nice hack. I got it working using version 1.5.1

However I couldn't apply the same hack for version 2.1.364 version of SyntaxHighlighter. It has got completely different code.

Can you please suggest if there any hacks for getting the collapse / expand option in version 2.1.364

Hello Adn, I add a little hack over your hack to fix default folding :-).
You may see it here if you are interested: http://www.nextpoint.se/?p=126

Thnks for making the original one.

Thanks Peter!

I really like it.. don't think I'd go back.

Nice standing work station! I have had them in the past and think standing is the only way to go. So much easier on the back, and it works a lot of small leg muscles throughout the day. Super cool that you built it yourself.

I like your standing work station very much. Are you a Tai Chi player by any chance?

I have a project that your graph work may come in handy for, and would like to discuss this with you if you are willing.

Re: Calculating Inflated Prices with CPI and Groovy : CodeSushi

Good call... my method of "simplification" is more brute force than systematic mathematics :) the original formula didn't give me what I wanted to I added factors of 10 and operators until I got what I wanted.

$100.0 * (1.0 + ((130.65833333333333 - 207.3424166666667) / 207.3424166666667))

is equivalent to

$100.0 * (130.65833333333333/207.342416666666)

If Pythagoras had been right, I would simplify it further...

Hi Ziv, I'm not sure... you're using my instructions or karnesky's?

Re: Slicing Up Cory Doctorow's Little Brother : CodeSushi

Ziv Kitaro — Sat, 14 Jun 2008 10:00:01 -0000

Hi.
Thanks man, but I think I'm doing something wrong.
I followed your instructions but the result files are all 4kb in size and they don't work.
Any idea why?

While CDDB is primarily for identifying a disc based on track lengths, it is also a reasonable (but not perfect) standard file to define track lengths suitable for splitting audio files.

I just linked to the CDDB file so that others can split the original mp3 in the same way that I did using mp3splt or other software that supports CDDB files. Since you already split your mp3s, it probably won't be much use to you.

(I don't think that AudioSlicer supports CDDB. If the program is still in active development, it might make sense to make a feature request for it.)

The recipe I used to create the CDDB file in case someone wants to use the same cross-platform, open source tools for this purpuse:
* 'mp3splt -s -p nt=## little_brother.mp3' to split on silence into ## tracks
* edit the split index or combine files with 'mp3wrap' to your liking
* use 'make-cddb.pl' (from JWZ's 'gronk' to generate a CDDB file from your split track
* double-check in mp3splt and fine-tune the split points and track info in the CDDB file

Thanks Karnesky! That's awesome! I've been real busy but I will certainly add this info to the post as soon as I have a chance to go over it.

I'm not really sure how to use the CDDB file.. I'll have to research that as well.

thanks again! sorry for the delayed response.

Ask Wesley Snipes if it's a voluntary system.

Re. Windows and Linux: You can use mp3splt, which is free and open source:
http://mp3splt.sourceforge....

I have hacked a CDDB file up:
http://arc.nucapt.northwest...
The split points aren't identical to yours, but they're "close enough."

To use: 'mp3splt -c little_brother.cddb little_brother.mp3'

This will retain id3 info on book, author, chapter name, and track number. You can use the '-o' argument to mp3splt if you are unhappy with the default naming scheme (author - track number - chapter name.mp3).

War is Peace; Freedom is Slavery; Ignorance is Strength

Add to that "Forced compliance is voluntary."

What a waste of time. I am not an anarchist, and so I do believe that the government ought to compel people in certain instances-- but you can't even have a discussion about the proper size and scope of government when those in power exhibit this kind of belligerence. Which definition of voluntary does Harry like?

1 : proceeding from the will or from one's own choice or consent 2 : unconstrained by interference : self-determining 3 : done by design or intention : intentional <voluntary manslaughter=""> 4 : of, relating to, subject to, or regulated by the will <voluntary behavior=""> 5 : having power of free choice 6 : provided or supported by voluntary action 7 : acting or done of one's own free will without valuable consideration or legal obligation

None of the above. Harry seems to think something is voluntary if he says it is voluntary. How long will Americans allow these kind of dimwits into power? Ridiculous. Me thinks you're not being "honest in your dealings with your fellow man," Harry.

It seems like we deserve to have some learned people in charge... these senators are the most powerful people in Washington and they don't even understand the fundamental principles of the government they have so much sway over... scary stuff.

Is this JB?

Thanks Micah

Yeah, I've looked at that... but a big part of the interest for me is tackling the technical problems myself and working in this problem space such that I am forced to really understand all the documents, processes, relationships and terminology... for me it's about mastering a new domain... at least until I get bored or find something more interesting :)

also that code is all written in Ruby, a platform with which I am not familiar, and coming up to speed on a new language and tool stack to work on an existing code base of that size isn't nearly as interesting as diving right into the domain problems.

I do follow the sunlight efforts... I especially love this new bill format they are using at publicmarkup.org talk about sexy! I don't see much at sunlight that I can apply here in Maine... but I think it might be interesting to follow their API... such that people who are familiar with using it to access federal data, could do the same for Maine data.

My first concern now is getting a pretty solid understanding of what is out there... and making the more hard to find stuff easier to find... like the house and senate session records... can you believe those were only available in Word docs?

thanks for following along! I really appreciate the feedback.
