- pretty cool
- 14:04:16 [Psychephylax]
- bah
- 14:04:20 [Psychephylax]
- I feel sick
- 14:04:22 [Psychephylax]
- Infact
- 14:04:23 [davb]
- hi Psychephylax,
- 14:04:23 [Psychephylax]
- I am sick
- 14:04:26 [davb]
- sorry :(
- 14:04:31 [Psychephylax]
- yeah but on top of that
- 14:04:43 [Psychephylax]
- I had Grand Jury Duty
- 14:04:44 [davb]
- ack
- 14:04:49 [Psychephylax]
- I called them and told them I'm dying and not coming in
- 14:05:00 [Psychephylax]
- they said "We'll get your ass here eventually"
- 14:05:03 [davb]
- heh
- 14:05:14 [markd2]
- yikes
- 14:05:15 [Psychephylax]
- And I'm certainly not going in to work today
- 14:05:17 [markd2]
- what's involved in Grand jury duty?
- 14:05:28 [markd2]
- and don't they let you bring a laptop so you can IRC from there?
- 14:05:28 [davb]
- I had regular jury duty and they said if you can't make if this time, pick a week you CAN make it.
- 14:05:48 [Psychephylax]
- heh
- 14:05:49 [Psychephylax]
- Dave, I missed the first time
- 14:05:57 [Psychephylax]
- and then I postponed it
- 14:05:59 [Psychephylax]
- and then I got sick on Friday
- 14:06:04 [davb]
- ah.
- 14:06:16 [Psychephylax]
- Damn flu
- 14:06:24 [Psychephylax]
- First I'm hot..then I'm freezing cold
- 14:06:40 [markd2]
- maybe it's menopause
- 14:06:53 [Psychephylax]
- Mark, Grand Jury Duty I _believe_ is that you don't have a single case
- 14:06:53 [davb]
- I discoverd again that the "consultant" they hired has no clue what he is doing.
- 14:07:07 [Psychephylax]
- but you get thrown from case to case to see if it's worthy enough to go to the Supreme court or something
- 14:08:52 [Psychephylax]
- so I bought a new computer case
- 14:08:58 [Psychephylax]
- I have pictures
- 14:09:04 [davb]
- cool.
- 14:09:04 [markd2]
- ooooh
- 14:09:09 [markd2]
- url?
- 14:09:09 [Psychephylax]
- Lian-Li!
- 14:09:10 [davb]
- neon light kit?
- 14:09:16 [Psychephylax]
- Working on that one
- 14:09:30 [markd2]
- hydraulics to make it bounce up and down?
- 14:09:35 [Psychephylax]
- rofl
- 14:09:35 [Psychephylax]
- no
- 14:09:46 [davb]
- I had to pay $40 locally for a 250w power supply this weekend.
- 14:09:58 [Psychephylax]
- lol
- 14:10:06 [Psychephylax]
- I had to pay 70$ for a 350
- 14:10:11 [Psychephylax]
- and 145$ for the case
- 14:10:23 [davb]
- ack!
- 14:10:27 [davb]
- I dont usually pay that much for the motherboard :)
- 14:11:11 [Psychephylax]
- I ordered a side panel with a window
- 14:11:35 [Psychephylax]
- Going to order a cold cathode ray tube next...
- 14:12:08 [Psychephylax]
- I'm thinking green with a "Radioactive" applique to match
- 14:12:12 [markd2]
- is that metal?
- 14:12:12 [Psychephylax]
- Oh, and they even have "pre-made" 3.5 bay covers with a switch for the light
- 14:12:18 [Psychephylax]
- Yes, 100% aluminium
- 14:12:25 [markd2]
- sweet
- 14:12:35 [Psychephylax]
- I've been meaning to take the case out and take more pictures
- 14:12:59 [Psychephylax]
- It's got front fan control! Low, Medium and "Damn, I'm at JFK"
- 14:13:21 [Psychephylax]
- And the front fans have a dust filter
- 14:13:36 [Psychephylax]
- The dust filters was the thing that sold me
- 14:13:43 [davb]
- cool.
- 14:13:49 [Psychephylax]
- yeah
- 14:13:59 [davb]
- the aluminum cases are supposed to be very nice, and actually need less cooling.
- 14:14:02 [Psychephylax]
- Motherboard tray slides out :) and it's a true tool-less case
- 14:14:02 [davb]

- 14:14:18 [Psychephylax]
- everything is thumb studs
- 14:15:38 [markd2]
- you are our thumb stud
- 14:16:07 [Psychephylax]
- :-D
- 14:16:26 [Psychephylax]
- What do you think...what color should I get for my case
- 14:16:31 [Psychephylax]
- green, blue, red, orange, white...there's more
- 14:17:00 [markd2]
- black?
- 14:17:06 [markd2]
- I like black
- 14:17:08 [Psychephylax]
- no black...UV
- 14:17:16 [Psychephylax]
- But that only makes white things glow
- 14:17:19 [Psychephylax]
- Not many white things on the inside
- 14:17:27 [markd2]
- oh. color light?
- 14:17:39 [markd2]
- blue then
- 14:17:47 [markd2]
- Looks like tchernikov radiation
- 14:17:59 [Psychephylax]
- I thought green was like radiation goo
- 14:18:11 [markd2]
- or biological experiments
- 14:18:57 [Psychephylax]
- plus
- 14:19:01 [Psychephylax]
- everyone has blue
- 14:19:17 [markd2]
- ah
- 14:19:23 [markd2]
- red would be cool
- 14:19:28 [markd2]
- like a submarine on alert
- 14:19:32 [Psychephylax]
- hehe
- 14:19:35 [markd2]
- any programmatic control?
- 14:19:46 [Psychephylax]
- ?
- 14:19:50 [Psychephylax]
- What's programmatic control
- 14:19:51 [markd2]
- like playing a Klaxon and blinking the light when you get a GPFin a windows app?
- 14:20:51 [Psychephylax]
- no I don't think so
- 14:21:18 [Psychephylax]
- I'm sure it can be done with an EEPROM chip
- 14:22:06 [Psychephylax]
- I'd have to hack the soundcard to interface with it
- 14:22:12 [Psychephylax]
- So that the lights blink to the beat
- 14:22:13 [Psychephylax]
- hehe
- 14:23:08 [Psychephylax]
- where did dave run off to?
- 14:23:24 [Psychephylax]
- and what happened to AaronSW?
- 14:23:31 [Psychephylax]
- He's never around anymore
- 14:29:50 [markd2]
- he's online. guess we're not in his area of interest anymore
- 14:30:05 [Psychephylax]
- I thought he registered the channel though
- 14:30:25 [markd2]

- I'm working on terrible customer service in the ecommerce module. What are you doing?
- 19:04:38 [bartt]
- That is terrible customer service CODE.
- 19:05:05 [talilee]
- hmmm... nothing as ugly as that
- 19:07:10 [bartt]
- I know, as I have been porting the ecommerce module for a while now.

- 19:14:02 [talilee]
- this is the 4.x ecommerce?
- 19:15:43 [bartt]
- Is is a straight port from 3.x so far. I know that Tom is working on a new ecommerce package too. I am also working with Janine from Furfly on a credit card gateway service contract.

- asking about group_member_p or a similarly named proc
- 19:16:50 [davb]
- right.
- 19:16:51 [xemacs5]
- I am about to write this proc
- 19:17:02 [xemacs5]
- any preferences on its exact name?
- 19:17:37 [bartt]
- My plan is to hook this service contract into the ported ecommerce module and leave it at that. The current ecommerce package us too ugly to try and add templating, versioning etc to.
- 19:17:41 [xemacs5]
- and is the ad_proc style of defining a new proc the preferred way?
- 19:18:10 [davb]
- ad_proc is the way.
- 19:18:41 [davb]
- the name doesn't matter to me :)
- 19:20:00 [talilee]
- is ad going to end up an artifact of a previous life, like ns_module?
- 19:20:10 [davb]
- probably.
- 19:20:42 [davb]
- besides, its easy to type :)
- 19:21:10 [talilee]
- true enough
- 19:57:50 [dlk]
- dlk is now known as dlk-afk
- 20:17:38 [davb]
- darn: nssoap is not really working
- 20:17:52 [davb]
- A stupid Tcl error made me believe it was :)
- 20:17:57 [talilee]
- bummer
- 20:18:06 [davb]
- (the stupidity was mine, not Tcl's :)
- 20:18:14 [talilee]
- it doesn't work at all, or it doesn't work enough?
- 20:18:27 [davb]
- I think I am doing it wrong.
- 20:18:50 [davb]
- So rather, _my_ installation of NSSoap is broken ;)
- 20:19:03 [talilee]
- ah...
- 20:19:15 [talilee]
- screw it, blame it on the software anyway :)
- 20:19:35 [talilee]
- if i were on your position, my solution would be to reinstall the OS :)
- 20:20:11 [davb]
- Ah, you use MS OSs too much.
- 20:20:53 [talilee]
- maybe, but that's been my solution with the unix's too
- 20:21:03 [talilee]
- unices
- 20:22:35 [davb]
- heh.
- 20:23:03 [davb]
- But with UNIX it usually is possible to fix it, you just need to find the one text file out of the millions that you need to tweak.
- 20:23:27 [talilee]
- yeah, that's about right :)

- 20:56:15 [xemacs5]
- ok, so I have the query for the group_member_p function
- 20:56:34 [xemacs5]
- but the query will return either 1 row if true or 0 rows if false
- 20:57:09 [xemacs5]
- what's the best way to write the db_ code ?
- 20:57:13 [xemacs5]
- any suggestions?
- 20:59:42 [davb]
- db_0or1row?
- 20:59:47 [davb]
- * davb thinks
- 21:00:13 [davb]
- or db_string also will work. Most of the db queries will return "" if 0 rows are returned, so you can check for that.
- 21:01:19 [xemacs5]
- yeah, found it, I thought that I remembered a 0or1row command, thanks
- 21:01:55 [davb]
- np :)

- xemacs5 are you still here?
- 21:39:49 [til]
- just wanted to ask you to also add your query to acs_groups__member_p in acs-kernel/sql/oracle/groups-body-create.sql
- 21:40:02 [til]
- that'd be cool
- 21:46:48 [til]

- A question for Oracle hackers: does Oracle have a to_timestamp function?
- 21:47:16 [markd2]
- what does that do?
- 21:47:28 [bartt]
- Or is the PG function to_timestamp equivalent to to_datetime?
- 21:47:48 [markd2]
- what does it do, then maybe I can tell you :-)
- 21:47:49 [bartt]
- to_timestamp returns date and time with time zone
- 21:47:54 [markd2]
- hmmm
- 21:48:12 [markd2]
- oracle's timezone handling is non-existant
- 21:48:28 [markd2]
- you can get the the date and time, but it'll be in the timezone as configured by the database
- 21:48:32 [bartt]
- It converts a text string to a timestamp.
- 21:48:45 [markd2]
- to_date is oracle's equivalent
- 21:49:01 [markd2]
- to_date (sysdate, 'Month DD, YYYY HH:MI:SS');
- 21:49:12 [bartt]
- I just found out that in PG to_date only returns the date not the time.
- 21:49:34 [markd2]
- oracle doesn't have a distinct date and timestamp - theyr'e rolled into one date type
- 21:50:15 [bartt]
- But I can use to_timestamp in PG, thanks markd2
- 21:50:27 [markd2]
