00:20:04 [AaronSw]
wmf!
00:20:26 [wmf]
howdy
00:26:08 [wmf]
heh, I just downloaded the source to an app and found one C file and about 17 files worth of auto* garbage
00:27:48 [AaronSw]
was this GNU helloworld?
00:28:05 [wmf]
no, slightly more complex than that
00:28:18 [AaronSw]
GNU hello world is pretty funny, actually
00:28:28 [AaronSw]
oops, it's just GNU hello
00:28:38 [AaronSw]
'Writing a program that prints "Hello, world!" is the classic beginner's programming task. The GNU version takes this a step further by processing its argument list to modify its behavior, by supporting internationalization, and by including a mail reader; it's a true demonstration of how to write programs that do these things. '
00:28:57 [AaronSw]
"The GNU `hello' program produces a familiar, friendly greeting. It allows nonprogrammers to use a classic computer science tool which would otherwise be unavailable to them. "
00:38:13 [AaronSw]
the shifted librarian has the best rss file, according to google
00:40:54 [AaronSw]
hee:
00:40:54 [AaronSw]
$ ./hello --help
00:40:54 [AaronSw]
This is GNU Hello, THE greeting printing program.
00:41:16 [AaronSw]
lol @ --mail
00:41:42 [AaronSw]
* Zork output compatibility has been added.

<blanu:#infoanarchy> I hope to get my scalable video broadcasting network

functional enough by WTFCon to broadcast live feeds over
00:52:50 [Morbus]
why not RSS?
00:53:02 [wmf]
OK, that is NOT what was on my clipboard

00:55:32 [AaronSw]
they interviewed ed fredkin for that article? what pushovers
00:55:50 [AaronSw]
wolfram was ed fredkin's student
00:56:33 [AaronSw]
heh, "chronic inability to share credit"
00:56:38 [AaronSw]
you should see his copyright notice!
00:57:05 [AaronSw]
he says that anyone who uses any of the things in the book must give him credit explicitly
00:57:26 [wmf]
that doesn't sound enforceable
00:58:01 [AaronSw]
he said this using only a full page of size 7 type
00:58:10 [AaronSw]
(with many citations to his website for further details)
00:58:18 [wmf]
ah, so no one will read it anyway
00:58:32 [AaronSw]
i doubt it's enforcable
01:05:10 [AaronSw]

<MysticOne> Good morning, everyone. We're testing a new concept here on Open Projects, and we're calling it WOPN ... it's an ogg vorbis stream where we'll play free music, host interviews with people in the community, and all around just have a good time. If you're interested in helping us test it, please stop by #WOPN for links to the servers. The streams are currently up, and we'd love to have you help us test it out.
01:16:36 [walloper]
<MysticOne> Also, if you're a musician or know any who wouldn't mind allowing us to showcase their music for free, please contact me at mysticone@openprojects.net ... we need all the free music we can get, and several contributions have already been made by the Alpha Conspiracy, Pajama Crisis, and Difference Engine. Thanks also to the Ogg Vorbis project for making this possible.
01:17:07 [walloper]
<MysticOne> These are wallops messages, non-critical news and information about the Open Projects Network. If you'd prefer not to receive these messages, simply /mode YourNick -w. Thank you for using the Open Projects Network.

Sorry. I welcome to your fixing.
02:55:50 [deltab]
* Opinions and impression and operation reports, etc. are welcomed.
02:55:50 [deltab]
The kind of the message board is the crop vagina chestnut. Or,
02:57:31 [AaronSw]
what??
02:57:47 [deltab]
hehe
02:58:12 [deltab]
* There is no manual in which that it waits is also ?
02:58:12 [deltab]
The priority is low coming work schedule.
02:58:32 [deltab]
* There is a want function.
02:59:54 [deltab]
* It is the GUI base.
03:00:00 [deltab]
* The fact is proven in the change of the icon, when there is a
03:00:00 [deltab]
conversation, when minitualized or, it is hidden Window, ( the
03:00:00 [deltab]
OPENSTEP edition in the minimization ).
03:00:03 [deltab]
so there
03:00:22 [AaronSw]
I've what fact?
03:02:51 [AaronSw1]
AaronSw1 has quit ("aargh, this sucks")
03:03:14 [deltab]
It is the GUI base.
03:03:24 [AaronSw]
Oh.
03:03:42 [AaronSw]
hm, maybe ircle will work.
03:03:54 [deltab]
"NARUTO" is the food of Japan. It is steamed-wounded-extended-fish meat

03:05:53 [deltab]
ooh, drag and drop
03:05:53 [AaronSw]
Hm, no luck so far. it's got a license agreement with no accept button.
03:07:02 [deltab]
I had plans to do d&d features in my irc client, years ago
03:08:02 [AaronSw]
you had an irc client?
03:08:08 [AaronSw]
Snak has drag and drop, it's very nice
03:08:12 [GabeW]
GabeW has quit ("Client Exiting")
03:08:15 [deltab]
plans for one
03:09:01 [deltab]
there was no readily available TCP/IP for RISC OS at the time though
03:09:32 [AaronSw]
Are you still on RISC OS?
03:09:41 [AaronSw]
what client do you use now?
03:09:42 [deltab]
so I tried implementing that
03:09:47 [AaronSw`]
AaronSw` (~aaronsw@12-249-96-16.client.attbi.com) has joined #swhack
03:09:49 [deltab]
for my end-of-course exam
03:10:38 [AaronSw`]
This client seems a lot more workable.
03:11:07 [deltab]
I haven't particularly used RISC OS in a few years
03:11:18 [AaronSw]
what kind of option is this: "Maximum # of clones on a channel"
03:11:36 [deltab]
not sure
03:11:54 [deltab]
I'm currently using BitchX on Linux
03:12:19 [deltab]
and configuring it again so that it's usable
03:12:32 [AaronSw`]
what were you using before?
03:13:10 [deltab]
earlier tonight, ircii, but before that BitchX
03:13:16 [deltab]
been using that for a while
03:13:27 [AaronSw`]
ah, ok.
03:13:31 [deltab]
over a year
03:13:44 [AaronSw`]
fwiw, i like this deltab better. he's much more responsive ;-)
03:14:35 [deltab]
when I used X, I ran xchat for a while
03:14:55 [deltab]
but I seemed to spend most of my time flipping between pages
03:15:35 [deltab]
each channel had its own page, and only one could be displayed at a time
03:16:06 [AaronSw`]
Yeah, snak striked an interesting balance. Every channel has its own page, but you can tab as many as you want in as many configs as you want
03:16:25 [AaronSw`]
* AaronSw` wonders how to integrate inputline with text window
03:16:29 [thelsdj]
i use ctr+alt+right|left to switch tabs in xchat
03:17:40 [AaronSw]
Hm, think i crashed ircle already
03:17:51 [AaronSw]
that counts it out
03:17:53 [thelsdj]
AaronSw, did you see my insanity about new user interfaces?
03:18:03 [AaronSw]
don't think so
03:18:23 [deltab]
hey, bx scrolls usably quickly on my machine
03:18:36 [thelsdj]
http://ipwebdev.com/radio/2002/06/11.php#a193
03:18:41 [deltab]
if only it could do keyword folding, it's be useful
03:18:44 [thelsdj]
after the first two rhymes i had to stop
03:18:59 [AaronSw`]
AaronSw` has quit (Remote closed the connection)
03:20:01 [deltab]
thelsdj: reminds me of Lifestreams
03:20:11 [deltab]
at leat, the little I know about that
03:20:22 [AaronSw]
yeah, same here
03:20:39 [deltab]
the descriptive documents about Lifestreams seem to have disappeared
03:20:57 [thelsdj]
is that what it was called?
03:21:04 [thelsdj]
i read some article about this like over a year ago and i could never find it again
03:21:39 [AaronSw]
i wish snak wouldn't crash so much, but the author can't seem to fix anything but reproducable bugs
03:21:52 [AaronSw]
too bad. doesn't seem like there's anything better
03:22:23 [AaronSw]
hm, i wonder if JediKnight's improved at all
03:28:04 [AaronSw]

I was chatting with someone the other day who commented, "the only thing I like about Java is that it moving people from writing in C++, which is worse"
15:24:24 [Morbus]
heh
15:24:44 [bitsko]
people who not only write in C++, but revel in all the garbage of which Paul speaks, ought to just be writing in assembler
15:25:06 [bitsko]
it definitely has more masochistic pull to it
15:39:51 [sbp]
ooh, Mozilla lets you choose the encoding (of course), and displays an interrobang as an interrobang under UTF-8

⌘ for those with good clients
16:01:05 [bitsko]
now I'd just need a place to have that translated ;)
16:01:33 [bitsko]
I must not have a good client, that came thru in something like UTF-8
16:04:53 [sbp]
uhm...
16:05:26 [sbp]
if it came through in UTF-8, that'd be perfect :-) It's iso-8859-1 that you have to watch out for
16:06:08 [sbp]
it was three octets: e2 8c 98

Yesterday, my RSS feed got more hits than the home page, and my RSS feed has been up for less than a week. Home page hits are off significantly, which tells me that a number of people who used to hit the site several times a day (you wonderful people) have plugged my site into their RSS aggregator. Granted, depending on the feed reader you use, you might be hitting the site 50 times a day with it, so there's no way to tell how many people are actually

how many people are actually using the RSS feed (well, there is, but not with the tool I'm using for log analysis), but it does seem to have taken off like a rocket.
19:35:57 [lemonodor]
heh. yeah, i've got 3850 hits in my log at the moment from just radio's rss aggregator. which are due to... 80 people.

can you do a measure of ampheta?
