About Me
Name:
While confusing to look at, it is not "Ron" as sometimes can be misinterpreted. It is actually a tribute to an inspirational cartoon of times past, Voltron.
Age:
If you ask, I might tell, but in the upper-20's lower-30's for a ballpark estimate.
Sports:
I like everything from FĂștbol to Football, but haven't been as enthused about the NBA, since Jordan. Their hearts just aren't in it.
Programming
Mainly driven by web scripting and relational database systems, but would really like to learn more about game design as well as core-level architecture.
Enthused Languages:
C++, Java, JavaScript, Perl, PHP, Python, Ruby, SQL|PL/SQL
Debates - Stance
MySQL vs PostgreSQL
PostgreSQL, especially 9.0, faster, stronger, and more importantly: more reliable.
PHP vs Perl
Depends on the language, but primarily Perl. Afterall, it was a Perl programmer that developed PHP only to use in addition to his Perl tasks, not as a replacement for it.
Apple vs Microsoft
Both. Competition drives the markets and will hopefully bring out the best in both. They both develop products to service their clients. Being a programmer, I prefer a MS or Linux based OS, preferably Red Hat or Ubuntu.

Linux: Does find | xargs grep have limitations? @Kevin: then that makes sense (thank you), I was talking about the combination of them both, which I don't know how it'd work, but I imagine it could check the same file exponentially |

Linux: Does find | xargs grep have limitations? @Kevin: I think I misunderstood you. Were you talking about using grep as a standalone instead of piping find's output to it? |

Linux: Does find | xargs grep have limitations? that's a valid comment and I tried to answer it with I realize I wasn't specific on the path, but these are all well-named directories, not to be confused with any devices. It's still possible that a malformed filename with spaces could have split oddly - I'll have to check when I have a little more time; however I doubt it. I typically don't use spaces in Linux. I think in looking at the "errors" the stopping point was at different places, but like I said... I will check because I hate not knowing the cause of problems to prevent them in the future. |

Linux: Does find | xargs grep have limitations? @Kevin: I'm not sure what that would buy me. find is supplying all the files, so grep shouldn't also need to read each file twice; unless, I'm not understanding the recursive nature of grep |

Linux: Does find | xargs grep have limitations? @Gilles: before I post a question, I try many options. In this particular instance it had no bearing on the outcome, so I included the version as part of the question |

Linux: Does find | xargs grep have limitations? When I debugged, I removed the error redirection ( removing the redirection of STDERR has no bearing on the result, or lack thereof) and I didn't notice anything other than permission denied/does not exist errors (no special characters). I think the does not exist errors were because of the spaces, but it encountered a few of those and still continued on. I'm still stumped on what the true nature was, but am appreciative of your help. I think I tried the -0 on xargs, but didn't do the -print0 on find -- thanks again! |

Linux: Does find | xargs grep have limitations? Your explanation makes sense. What I don't completely understand is why it would crash, and not continue on, even if it encountered a file that didn't exist. Regardless, this solved my particular issue +5 (if i could) |

Linux: Does find | xargs grep have limitations? @rici: I've removed both error redirections and the only errors that appear are Permission denied or No such file or directory, which I don't see applying to the path above. I've also tried -type f for the find to simplify the search |

Alias Loop in csh I have to check, but I'm pretty sure it's csh (old setup) |
