I apologize for misleading the public in this way, and hope that everyone missed this comic blunder. thank you for your time 02:05:00 * Morbus points finger 02:07:24 it's rude to point you arseholistictockaymartistictokay... 02:11:41 and after all, when all is said and done... there's nothing left to say or do 02:11:57 except talk about what's been said and done, perhaps. but that's doing something 02:12:01 what a conundrum! 02:12:40 604 words. 02:12:41 whoo! 02:13:10 but there's a gherkin in my cumberbund, and it gives me such delight. what a fraptuous resin, created amidst the old grey embers of the forest mirror 02:13:16 well done 02:13:36 I note that the embers belonged to the mirror 02:13:43 mirrors in the old days used to posses all sorts of things 02:13:54 200 more words and i can fiddle with ampheta. happy days! 02:13:57 mirrors these days are comparatively poor 02:14:08 it might be argued as to whether they even own the space of wall that they hang on 02:14:16 I would say "yes", that they do 02:14:20 or rather, that they should 02:14:44 but really, this isn't my field. I don't really have much of a background in the rights and privliges of mirrors in this day and age 02:14:56 but when it comes to the rights of ancient mirrors 02:15:02 ah, well, that's a bit different 02:15:09 o you even participate on mysterylights@yahoo? i unsub'd cos i never saw your comments 02:15:15 actually, no it's not. I don't really know anything about the rights of ancient mirrors either 02:15:32 I wonder if the framemakers for old mirrors were any wiser than the framemakers for today's mirrors? 02:15:38 it might actually be the other way around 02:15:49 its like shoe cobbling. 02:15:52 I mean, you'd think that the science (or art?) would have progressed a little since then 02:15:58 there are really no shoe cobblers any more. 02:16:02 participate: not often 02:16:02 you just buy new shoes. 02:16:10 that's true. Quite saddening 02:16:17 in the future, there will be new mirrors, you'll just buy bottled water and look at your reflection 02:16:32 did i ever tell you that evian spelled abckwards is naive? a wonderful statement on the art of buying bottled water 02:16:41 heh, heh, heh 02:16:44 evian being, a name brand of bottled water. 02:16:53 yep, I know 02:17:00 with no comma 02:17:04 right 02:17:05 :) 02:17:20 ack. 02:17:22 no mirrors, not new mirros. 02:17:28 stupid beans. confusing me. 02:17:32 will water be more reflective in the future, then? 02:17:42 no, our faces will be plainer 02:17:50 ah. could be 02:17:52 i have a link on that, btw. 02:17:54 lemme find it. 02:18:11 http://www.octapod.org.au/webdweller/averageface/ 02:18:51 that's quite funny 02:18:54 if the water leaves a metallic film on the bottom of the container, you get a mirror 02:19:14 I think that it's just three people 02:19:21 yeah: because you get internal reflection 02:19:25 so with increased metal content in water, maybe it will become more reflective 02:19:34 that would make sense. 02:19:42 becuase a lot of people aren't getting enough iron in their diets 02:19:57 Pff: total internal reflection 02:20:04 well, juist drink mercury 02:20:09 not good for you, but shiny 02:20:52 mercury domes 02:20:56 quite hilarious 02:21:34 if it were any more hilarious, it'd be not as quite hilarious 02:21:49 that's bollocks, and you kno wit 02:22:00 you have no wit, I mean 02:22:16 yes, you are. 02:22:28 perhaps I don't. I can't really tell anymore. I'm tired of this conversation. Let's talk about clouds 02:22:40 Gotta run 02:22:47 you mean, soar. 02:22:51 into the clouds. 02:22:54 butterfly in the sky 02:22:59 i can fly twice as high 02:31:06 whoo hoo! amphetadesk! 02:37:18 it has been said that Amphetadesk rocks 02:38:26 [lots of sneezing] 02:38:40 well, I'm really going to go, this time 02:39:02 just to note that I'm tired and ill, so the http://blogspace.com/swhack/chatlogs/2002-03-28.txt log should probably be chucked into the well 02:39:23 sniff. 02:39:24 OTOH, it may be the source of considerable amusement 02:39:32 :-) 02:39:32 i'll miss you sbp! 02:39:48 well, the sbp client will still be here 02:39:53 heh. 02:39:54 and you also have xena 02:40:12 awww, sbp is ill. 02:40:29 anyway, I think we should have a closedown routine 02:40:36 like, we play the national anthem 02:40:43 and then switch over the teletext 02:40:53 yep. poor me 02:40:59 * sbp sniffles 02:41:00 Which nation? 02:41:03 * jillzilla sings O Canada. 02:41:16 the Swhack national anthem, of course 02:41:25 that's as good as any 02:41:29 What's the tune? 02:41:34 * jillzilla attempts to hum it. 02:41:43 * sbp harks back to the South Park T&P movie special 02:42:40 but I'd better not get started on national anthems, else I'll start ranting about small magic butterflies with raddish hats and strawberry umbreallas again 02:43:00 and that won't be pretty. Hmm... well, I guess it is sort of pretty. Even dainty 02:43:09 It's utterly charming. 02:43:12 Once, but not twice. 02:43:13 anyway 02:43:24 threeeeee times a lady! 02:43:32 * jillzilla sways... 02:43:34 and I loooooove, you 02:43:40 * jillzilla sniffles. 02:43:53 just give me once 02:43:54 twice 02:43:54 [boom boom] 02:43:54 three times a lady 02:43:55 cause I looooove you 02:43:59 yes I looooove, you 02:44:06 [music] 02:44:06 * sbp bows 02:44:11 * jillzilla is touched. 02:44:30 heh.

I'll do some research... 17:40:51 from that last link:- 17:40:53 [[[ 17:40:54 Wirth and Hoare together make a remark in the same direction in motivating the case construction: "Like the conditional, it mirrors the dynamic structure of a program more clearly than go to statements and switches, and it eliminates the need for introducing a large number of labels in the program." 17:40:55 ]]] 17:41:15 that sounds to me like they are making a differentiation between 'case' anc 'switch' 17:41:18 and 17:41:40 'go to' i can see as evil 17:41:57 what is the diffence between 'case' and 'switch' 17:44:55 perhaps an example of a case statement that I like would help: 17:45:21 in UserTalk (algol/c-like scripting language from Frontier) you do something like this: 17:45:32 case expr 17:45:40 val1 17:45:47 do such and such 17:45:52 val2 17:45:57 do other thing 17:46:01 OR 17:46:03 you can do 17:46:07 [[[ 17:46:11 case true 17:46:20 expr 17:46:26 do duch and such 17:46:34 expr2 17:46:39 ddo other thing 17:46:44 else 17:46:49 do last thing 17:46:51 ]]] 17:47:26 anyway, it's frightfully easy, esp for things like objToXML(obj) 17:47:27 ;-) 17:48:00 so, my "case" is made, I'll shut up now. 17:49:30 GabeW (~Gabe@12-236-237-100.client.attbi.com) has joined #swhack 17:50:23 Mmmkay 17:50:36 heh. 17:50:54 that weird, huh? 17:51:08 why can't you remodel those as if cascades? 17:51:37 if expr == val1: do such and such 17:51:40 else: do other thing 17:51:41 of course i can, but it seems cleaner (and i think i read once that - at least in usertalk - it's faster) 17:52:03 if i was talking about 3 cases, then yesm the if/else works 17:52:24 but when i have 6 or 10 cases, it's nice to have the case statement 17:53:12 anyway - it's not THAT big a deal, i suppose 17:53:23 perhaps if you gave a real example, comparing to the same code in languages without case... I'll be convinced 17:53:34 but I don't really care anyway :-) 17:54:20 heh 17:54:31 anyway, The Simpsons will be on soon 17:54:32 Gotta run 17:54:36 bye 18:17:12 GabeW has quit ("Client Exiting") 18:18:34 jarv (~jarv@pool-141-158-55-72.phil.east.verizon.net) has joined #swhack 18:23:38 Geryon (~nick@pool-141-155-184-156.ny5030.east.verizon.net) has joined #swhack 18:23:41 Hey guys 18:23:44 hi 18:23:46 'lo 18:23:55 What's this #swhack channel all about? 18:23:58 Mantene_1 (Mantene@ool-4351a5b7.dyn.optonline.net) has joined #swhack 18:24:07 It's semantic web.. what did you think? 18:24:07 depends on who you ask ;-) 18:24:20 So what is this channel about Jarv? 18:24:22 semantic web? 18:24:32 why would you just randomly go into a channel without knowing what it was? 18:24:36 or if you ask morbus or jill, it's about staplers 18:24:39 Ok redmonk...
