* sbp does a little pen-sketch
02:51:08 [sbp]
* sbp is pretty much done on that
02:55:21 [sbp]
I probably should have done it bigger, but oh well
02:56:59 [sbp]
ooh, the topic's out of date: we need another new word
02:58:01 [sbp]

pff, smeg it
03:48:14 [sbp]
Ugh: I
03:48:23 [sbp]
I'm still listed as a HumanMarkup TC member!
03:48:44 [sbp]
I quit last October, as I recall
03:51:12 [sbp]
heh! I'm listed (alphabetically) below Steven R. Newcomb and above Bruce Perens as famous contributors in http://www.openphd.net/W3C_Patent_Policy/Famous_Contributions
03:51:53 [sbp]
quite a few results for my JavaScript book, too
03:51:59 [sbp]
* sbp is doing a vanity search on Google
03:57:06 [sbp]
ooh, Daniel and I are cited in http://www.google.com/search?q=cache:8u0OnnYgDcYC:dret.net/biblio/dretbiblio.pdf+%22Sean+B.+Palmer%22&hl=en
03:57:17 [sbp]
for XAG
04:24:51 [AaronSw]
That was a great book.
04:25:16 [AaronSw]
(Ender's Shadow)
04:25:58 [sbp]
* sbp waves
04:26:24 [AaronSw]
Ho, sbp.
04:26:57 [sbp]
Hola, Aaron
04:27:14 [sbp]
.google "Ender's Shadow"
04:27:16 [xena]
"Ender's Shadow": http://www.sfsite.com/09b/end65.htm
04:28:39 [jeremiah]
hello
04:29:11 [sbp]
Hi J
04:29:16 [jeremiah]
hey
04:29:22 [jeremiah]
went driving all over town again tonight
04:29:24 [jeremiah]
fun stuff
04:29:26 [AaronSw]
Ho, J.
04:33:09 [AaronSw]
Man, I really destroyed my eyes reading today.
04:33:23 [AaronSw]
I gotta think about something to do about that.
04:34:39 [jeremiah]
what did your ead?
04:34:41 [jeremiah]
read*
04:34:51 [AaronSw]
Ender's Shadow
04:35:17 [jeremiah]
hmm
04:36:18 [jeremiah]
whoah shit, local guy caught with 206 pounds of marijuanna
04:38:38 [AaronSw]
.spell parallax
04:38:40 [xena]
potential spellings for parallax are: parallax, parallaxes, parallels, paralyse, perillas, paroled, Perelman, parallel, paralyze, prerelease
04:48:23 [AaronSw]
* AaronSw blogs the book
04:48:44 [jeremiah]
hmm
04:48:47 [AaronSw]
I had a very hard time finding an ending to the review.
04:49:41 [jeremiah]
did you read the whole book?
04:49:49 [jeremiah]
that is: all in one day?
04:49:55 [AaronSw]
Yes.
04:50:00 [jeremiah]
how long is it?
04:50:16 [AaronSw]
Last Saturday I read the Fountainhead (tho i read a little Friday night with that).
04:50:57 [AaronSw]
Ender's Shadow is 379 pages in hardcover.
04:53:16 [jeremiah]
knuth is hard to read
04:55:25 [jeremiah]
need any work done on the plex?
04:55:33 [sbp]
yeah, build it for us
04:55:35 [jeremiah]
haha
04:56:47 [AaronSw]
Hmm, I'm getting a lot of German email about my schooling subversion site.
04:56:59 [AaronSw]
Which is especially odd considering the site is down now.
04:57:03 [sbp]
neat. So it's actually written in German?
04:57:08 [jeremiah]
* jeremiah drives a Mercedes and is part German
04:57:10 [jeremiah]
:)
04:57:14 [AaronSw]
err, no. it's just from germany
04:57:18 [jeremiah]
* jeremiah needs excuses to brag about his mercedes
04:57:21 [sbp]
blimey, you're pert everyithng, aren't you?
04:57:41 [jeremiah]
well my one grandfather, who I'm close to, is basically pure ethnic german
04:57:51 [sbp]
there go my jokes about the Irish feller living in Germany
04:57:54 [jeremiah]
everyone else (the other 3 grandparents) are prettymuch pure irish
04:58:05 [jeremiah]
well, german grandpa hate's irish people, oddly
04:58:08 [jeremiah]
if I have my stories straight
04:58:13 [sbp]
heh, cool
04:58:42 [jeremiah]
so I've relized I'm very unproductive these days
04:58:45 [jeremiah]
as far as coding goes
04:58:54 [sbp]
me too
04:59:01 [AaronSw]
Wha?!
04:59:04 [sbp]
oh hang on, I just wrote an inference engine. Pff
04:59:16 [AaronSw]
You just coded an inference engine and a query engine in two days. That's unproductive?
04:59:25 [AaronSw]
* AaronSw wishes he had sbp's productivity
04:59:25 [sbp]
yeah. So much for "look at me, I
04:59:38 [sbp]
... I'm a lazy slob"
04:59:46 [jeremiah]
I just need people to say 'do this shit goddamit' and then I'll be productive
04:59:52 [sbp]
that's funny: I wish I had your productivity
04:59:57 [sbp]
and Jeremiah too
05:00:04 [jeremiah]
haha
05:00:05 [sbp]
perhaps we're all really quite lazy
05:00:10 [jeremiah]
yeah
05:00:16 [jeremiah]
I maintain the illusion of being a workaholic
05:00:26 [jeremiah]
and a rich person, all my friends think I'm rolling in cash from some job I did months ago
05:00:38 [jeremiah]
1/2 my friends think I still program "for that costa rican company"
05:01:18 [jeremiah]
so I need to read all the knuth books, I suppose
05:01:26 [jeremiah]
or learn to be really f-in good at opengl
05:01:27 [AaronSw]
Why?
05:01:33 [jeremiah]
they seem like important books to read
05:02:02 [AaronSw]
Hmm:

GabeW (~Gabe@12-236-237-100.client.attbi.com) has joined #swhack
05:02:03 [jeremiah]
I need to get opengl working again
05:02:03 [AaronSw]
In "Second Generation Web Services" Paul focuses on the underlying
05:02:03 [AaronSw]
"web" parts of web services, and presents a vision for the future
05:02:04 [AaronSw]
of web services that is based on HTTP, XML and URIs. Read more at
05:02:04 [AaronSw]

05:02:05 [AaronSw]
--
05:03:07 [AaronSw]
Sort of ironic how the base of the HTML Web is being called *second* generation.
05:03:10 [sbp]
calling mIRC: ">" is not part of a fucking URI-ref
05:03:39 [jeremiah]
I really hate the html web
05:03:56 [sbp]
convert it all to text with lynx
05:04:05 [jeremiah]
that's not what I ment
05:04:16 [sbp]
:-)
05:04:23 [GabeW]
hey all
05:04:28 [jeremiah]
what I mean is... I don't like the idea of people providing their own interfaces in the same way the show off the information
05:04:35 [jeremiah]
but I also like customizable interfaces
05:05:16 [jeremiah]
we need a browser addition for mozilla so it can render docbook, opml, and rss
05:05:18 [jeremiah]
in nice, readable formats
05:06:01 [AaronSw]
they're working on RSS now
05:06:09 [jeremiah]
cool
05:06:59 [jeremiah]
I need more ram
05:07:19 [jeremiah]
or I need to fix this thing so it stops killing programs that take up too much ram (actually add a swap partition)
05:07:20 [sbp]
I need more sheep
05:07:29 [sbp]
let's go to a farmer's market
05:07:46 [jeremiah]
it's like this: c and posix and all of that are great systems
05:07:55 [sbp]
* sbp suddenly remembers that all this stuff is logged - argh!
05:07:58 [jeremiah]
and they were great in the 70's or whenever they were created
05:08:09 [jeremiah]
but the problem is everyone still uses that one system
05:08:17 [sbp]
Python: C for the 90's (and the 00ies)
05:08:18 [jeremiah]
for so much of thier programming
05:08:24 [jeremiah]
it's the same thing with the web
05:08:32 [jeremiah]
everyone just uses the least common denominator
05:08:42 [sbp]
C is only really used because of its pervasiveness for creating binaries, its speed, and the fact that all the old decent code was in C
05:08:45 [jeremiah]
because everyone is either too lazy to upgrade, or too lazy to write something twice
05:08:57 [sbp]
indeed
05:08:59 [jeremiah]
and becuse c++ sucks
05:10:21 [sbp]
Aaron: BTW, the inference engine only took 30 minutes and 20 seconds to write
05:10:33 [sbp]
which I found rather... amusing
05:10:39 [jeremiah]
you time your code work?
05:10:41 [AaronSw]
Rubbing it in
05:10:42 [jeremiah]
I should do that
05:10:59 [jeremiah]
so what we really need is one company or group to be a monopoly
05:11:07 [jeremiah]
but a company/group that knows what's going on
05:11:13 [jeremiah]
and doesn't try to profit off of everything
05:11:32 [jeremiah]
that'll never happen... but it would be interesting if it did
05:11:57 [sbp]
I just figured that I finished it rather quickly, and so I got the "created" date from the file, and the "it works!" statement from the #swhack logs, and deducted the one time from t'other
05:12:05 [sbp]
I do things like that :-)
05:12:12 [jeremiah]
oh
05:12:37 [jeremiah]
so any idea if I'll be able to get cvs access for this code... anytime? it's really a pain and makes me not wanna code when I think of how outdated everything is
05:17:18 [jeremiah]
* jeremiah has fun trying to make a swap partition
05:18:39 [AaronSw]
hmm, jer, why do you want to get cvs access? so that you can do updates or commits?
05:18:57 [jeremiah]
so I can keep a decent copy of the most recent code
05:19:02 [jeremiah]
I wouldn't even mind anonymous access
05:19:10 [jeremiah]
gotta reboot, back in a bit
05:19:11 [sbp]
* sbp would like that too
05:19:18 [AaronSw]
* AaronSw pokes deltab
05:19:32 [jeremiah]
jeremiah has quit ("Client Exiting")

logster, grep 0-0 [[[
05:24:25 [sbp]
I'm logging. Sorry, nothing found for '[[['
05:24:27 [jeremiah]
jeremiah (~jeremiah@ip68-10-5-132.hr.hr.cox.net) has joined #swhack
05:24:27 [jeremiah]
ok, now I have a gig of swap
05:24:27 [jeremiah]
here's to no more spontanous crashes
05:24:57 [sbp]
sbp has changed the topic to: A new word every day. Don't splungigate now.
05:25:12 [sbp]
oh, Aaron, I had a question for you yesterday
05:25:26 [sbp]
it's in the logs somewhere. You'll just have to read the whole damn lot
05:25:45 [jeremiah]
hah
05:25:53 [sbp]
or grep yesterday's logs for -i sbp.*Aaron
05:26:01 [sbp]
but that'd be cheating
05:26:02 [AaronSw]
i always read the swhack logs
05:26:12 [AaronSw]
especially the parts with my name in them
05:26:40 [sbp]
cool
05:27:13 [AaronSw]
* AaronSw disappears to read logs
05:30:35 [GabeW]
GabeW has quit ("Client Exiting")
05:32:43 [AaronSw]
I saw a sticker today with Homer on it and it said: "D'oh! ... Nuts! ... Mmm, donuts..."
05:33:18 [sbp]
:-)
05:34:43 [jeremiah]
* jeremiah downloaded movabletype
05:34:56 [jeremiah]
now I have to request ssh access for the server before I can get it running
05:37:44 [sbp]
Homer: Mmm... forbidden donut
05:39:00 [AaronSw]
"you're just attaching properties to a group of data items that you want to find again in the future, to perhaps make it more memorable, or whatever [...] because in reality, that's how we work"
05:39:00 [AaronSw]
Wow! You won't believe how hard a time I had explaining this to people. They kept saying: but nobody thinks like that -- folders are so natural. Urgh.
05:39:29 [sbp]
heh!
05:39:53 [sbp]
I'd be all like, "yeah right dude, what*ever*"
05:40:07 [jeremiah]
do either of you know what "type3" fonts are?
05:40:17 [jeremiah]
trying my damdest to get them installed, and it isn't working
05:40:21 [jeremiah]
damndest*
05:40:28 [jeremiah]
gah, whatever, my spelling sucks
05:40:40 [jeremiah]
they don't seem to be in the packages list for debian
05:40:49 [sbp]
.google type3 fonts
05:40:50 [xena]
type3 fonts: http://www.mail-archive.com/tetex-pretest%40informatik.uni-hannover.de/msg00225.html&e=922
05:40:57 [AaronSw]
<sbp> so I guess it might save data into files, as it'll be faster to access. I'm not sure - I should ask Aaron when he comes back
05:40:58 [AaronSw]
(and I did have my speakers on, BTW. I was like WTF is going on...hmm, but this book is so good...but i really should listen...i'll read it tomorrow)
05:41:20 [AaronSw]
Hmm, Type3... sounds familiar. Macs support them, I think. ;-)
05:41:29 [sbp]
heh, cool! I thought that you wouldn't have had them on...
05:41:32 [jeremiah]
these are pdfs of the gnu newspaper
05:41:36 [jeremiah]
magazine, that is
05:42:27 [AaronSw]
.google notation3 programming language dquan
05:42:28 [xena]
notation3 programming language dquan: http://www.ai.mit.edu/people/dquan/n3script.html
05:42:37 [AaronSw]
yep, that's it.
05:42:45 [sbp]
yeah, I found it a bit further on in the logs
05:42:54 [AaronSw]
They were on but my Mom got so annoyed she asked me how to turn them off.
05:43:15 [sbp]
really? Me an my innane nattering
05:43:20 [sbp]
s/an/and/
05:43:26 [jeremiah]
kghostview is a beautiful program
05:43:43 [sbp]
you should have turned them down a bit :-)
05:43:47 [AaronSw]
"only people with the correct digital signature can delete the corresponding files". no, only the people who own the hard drives can delete the files
05:44:30 [sbp]
ah, of course - no deletions
05:44:49 [jeremiah]
* jeremiah is away: reading
05:47:20 [AaronSw]
<sbp> As Dan said, the amount of email you get it is closely related to the amount that you send out
05:47:20 [AaronSw]
I've noticed that with IRC too.
05:47:26 [sbp]
:-)
05:47:40 [sbp]
* sbp doesn't actually believe that anyone will register an "RDF-Type" header, but I just had to suggest it...
05:50:53 [sbp]
no repsonse from www-tag yet
05:52:55 [sbp]
Gotta run
05:53:01 [AaronSw]
lol at the new http://rdfweb.org/

A: http://rdfweb.org/ from AaronSw
05:54:10 [jeremiah]
I realized today that the sw in swhack is for semantic web, not for swartz
05:54:16 [jeremiah]
I think it was on one of the websites
05:54:27 [AaronSw]
Heh.
05:54:41 [AaronSw]
It's not. It's the sound that's made when you hit someone with a clue-by-four.
05:54:53 [AaronSw]
[swings] *swhack!*
05:55:03 [AaronSw]
A:|RDFWeb: semantic web vapourware for the masses
05:55:04 [chumpster]
titled item A
05:55:12 [jeremiah]
oh
05:55:39 [AaronSw]
A::New redesign contains 20% more tongue-in-cheek humor!
05:55:42 [chumpster]
commented item A
05:56:06 [AaronSw]
I think the original idea was Semantic Web Hack, but we wanted to discuss other things too.
05:57:16 [jeremiah]
oh
06:00:19 [AaronSw]
OK, this is sad:
06:00:24 [AaronSw]
.google working has enhanced my life
06:00:25 [xena]

06:00:30 [jeremiah]
haha
06:00:50 [AaronSw]
I feel like a failure.
06:01:08 [jeremiah]
the hits to my website has slowed to a trickle
06:01:11 [jeremiah]
and i couldn't care less
06:01:53 [jeremiah]
guh, the gnu magazines seems to be just filled with editorials and columns
06:01:57 [jeremiah]
no real meat
06:03:12 [jeremiah]
time to go read some knuth, talk to you later
06:04:44 [AaronSw]
c'ya
06:04:49 [AaronSw]
i didn't find the gnu mag interesting, either
06:05:16 [jeremiah]
yeah
06:05:18 [jeremiah]
oh well
06:05:32 [jeremiah]
I wish I had pdfs of knuth's stuff, I guess I'll have to tote that book around with me
06:05:44 [jeremiah]
although it is one of the most pleasant books I've read aesthetically
06:05:55 [jeremiah]
for being all text as it is
06:06:04 [jeremiah]
* jeremiah is back (gone 00:21:16)
06:06:09 [jeremiah]
* jeremiah is away: really going now, goodnight all
06:08:22 [AaronSw]
Cool, I hear Knuth is a great artist.

seriously?

Yeah.
15:45:19 [deltab]

Why does it matrer?
17:25:50 [AaronSw]
err matter

Hmm... although we can probably guess your age. I don't know why, but I have noticed that only younger people tend to burst into a channel and ask how old everyone is :-)
17:31:32 [sbp]
Perhaps because older people tend to be more reserved about their ages, wheras often (although there are... er... exceptions to the rule), when younger people do somthing that trances adults in any dept., flaunting their age at the same time often makes sense

Aaron, would it be possible to partition logster so that it greps by year?
20:41:33 [AaronSw]
Ask dajobe (for the 3040404 time)
20:41:33 [AaronSw]
I suppose we could have like 4 logsters running if you wanted to do that.
20:41:33 [sbp]
that might be a bit extreme
20:42:22 [AaronSw]
or you could just ask me
20:42:27 [AaronSw]
to grep by hand
20:43:23 [sbp]
that would be a bit of an inconvenience, surely?
20:43:53 [AaronSw]
indeed
20:44:00 [AaronSw]
but less painful than coding perl ;)
20:44:17 [sbp]
