I want to populate some data to use in my Rails app. However I cannot decide which of data generator is the best for me.
I want to fast and clean generator. It should create plenty of data as well.
I have 3 of them, random_data, forger and faker.
Which one is the best? Can you share you experience?

My choice is ffaker. It's quite fast and maintained by Emmanuel.

This is a really broad question but I have had good experiences with both:
BlogDesk - http://www.blogdesk.org/en/index.htm
and
Windows Live Writer - http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=8621
Both are free and can be used offline. Do you have any specific requirements for what the software can do?

It is very confusing with versioning. I saw lots of versioning samples. Some of them contains even subversion information. Many of them looks ok.
0.5
0.1.0
0.0.1.0
5.5.5.2_R139
...
What is the best practise/best way for software-versioning?
This is rather a topic for the programmers IMHO. You may want to take a look at this post, where several approaches are discussed.

I choose the search engine for large project. Sunspot I liked, at least from the fact that we no need to run a cron job to reindex the data. But when I saw this http://www.vijedi.net/2010/ruby-full-text-search-performance-thinking-sphinx-vs-sunspot-solr/ I began to doubt.
It depends on user preference, so there's no straightforward answer. Maybe you could go through pros and cons of each one and decide for yourself?

how do you test your own k-means implementation for multidimensional data sets?
I was thinking of running an already existing implementation (i.e. Matlab) on the data and compare the results with my algorithm. But this would require both algorithms to work more than roughly the same and the mapping between the two results probably is no piece of cake.
Do you have a better idea?
