Upcoming server migration

Just to let you know that I'll be moving the forum to a new server in the next few weeks. Not quite sure when, depends on availability.

Re: Request for help in a Quixotic quest against a useless Microsoft dialog

That's a good site. It's better than the incumbents like Rosetta Stone and Babbel at dealing with the challenges of rough - rather than exact - translation. Also seems to have a decent Dutch capability, which is really hard to find. Hartelijk bedankt!

Server hacked - spam spewed forth

One of the other sites I run on this server has been hacked (second time). I've deleted the website now, but a lot of damage has been done to the IP address's reputation and a lot of email owners - such as Gmail - won't be touching my server with a ten foot pole. I've just fished something out of th...

Re: dimix use

I can see two possible angles to your question so hopefully one of the two answers is what you're after. DIMIX of zero means that an element is not in the dimension. E.g. dimix('DaysOfTheWeek', 'Tomato'); is likely to return zero because 'Tomato' isn't an element in the DaysOfTheWeek dimension. So t...
