Comment on Python Speed: Getting the first part of a string by elghinn

If the string in “a” is a bit different, resultat is different too O

In [1]: a = ‘ijtgvtrVC/ytrvyvcytv/vcytvcyt’

In [2]: timeit a.split(’/', 1)[0]
1000000 loops, best of 3: 847 ns per loop

In [3]: timeit a.split(’/')[0]
1000000 loops, best of 3: 850 ns per loop

Comment on Python Speed: ‘x in list’ vs ‘x in set’ by Paulo José da Silva e Silva

Actually search a hash table with a O(1) operation is the hash function hashes well. A search in O(log n) is usually associated to sorted lists or (balanced) binary trees.

Err, what? Searching for an item in a hashtable is O(1) not O(log(n)).

This is of course expected behaviour.
Since a set is a sort of dictionary. (Hashtable)
Therefor searching for an item in a set is log(n) instead of n.
has_key is a dictionary.

It’s actually fairly easy to set up.

Start the ‘New account’ Wizard. On the Identity part, fill in your name and @ubuntu.com email address. -Forward-

Make sure ‘None’ is selected on ‘Receiving Email’ - Forward -

On the ‘Sending eMail’ part, use an SMTP (for example) server you have credentials on. Here you can fill in the options just like you would for your @jak-linux.org address.

That’s all you need.

@Simon: This will be done. I’m currently just “hacking” in the functionality. Later, I will cleanup the code and merge it into master. BTW, there are no packages available yet.

I vote for an unified package for building both Debian and Ubuntu images, since it makes it far easier to support both distributions without the need for lots of chroots and general script hackery.

For example, the fact that debootstrap supports both makes it really easy for one of my cronjobs to prepare autobuilt cross-binutils packages for all known variants of Debian and Ubuntu. It would be way harder if I had to run an Ubuntu chroot in order to set up the five or so temporary Ubuntu chroots in which the actual package builds take place.

Yes, just set up the address as a new account, and leave the receiving server type as ‘None’.

Evolution should then be able to automatically choose the address to send from, or you can choose manually.

I have also some alias addresses in Evolution.
My setup involves all the addresses i use, but i have left the receiving part on NONE.

So i have my.name@ and administrator@ accounts but the second one is only a SMTP account. When i get a mail addressed to administrator@ then the reply is done with the settings of administrator@ account. Try it for yourself.
