[01:20:40] <SoyBull5150> Been fucking around wtih LabView lately.
[01:21:12] <SoyBull5150> Can understand why programmers ate it.
[01:21:20] <SoyBull5150> Hate it, even.
[01:23:30] <SoyBull5150> Simple array oparations are block diagrams of two or more components and a loop.
[01:27:19] <SoyBull5150> And each operation is a block in that block diagram.
[01:28:11] <chromas> Try scrap
[01:28:18] <chromas> Scratch
[01:28:37] <SoyBull5150> chromas, that is bullshit
[01:29:52] <pinchy> i thought labview is meant to be a graphical programming type software?
[01:30:28] <pinchy> are u saying they need some different type of gliph to represent array operations?
[01:31:37] <SoyBull5150> Well they could have done a beter job.
[01:33:21] <SoyBull5150> i think that I could help them out.
[01:33:29] <SoyBull5150> But NOT TONIGHT
[01:36:57] <chromas> Emoji programming
[01:37:20] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - U.S. has 62nd Ranking in LTE Speeds in the World, about 1/3 the Speed of Singapore - http://sylnt.us - don't-complain-I-have-2mbps
[01:39:08] <SoyBull5150> Well, Bender, America has always sucked.
[01:39:11] <chromas> Is LTE an Olympic event yet?

[02:06:07] <Bytram> Sulla: *IF* they either renew their subscription OR when they *gift* a subscription to UID they *also* put their nick in the email field, there's already a page for admins to view that info. You give me dates/times and I can give you subscription IDs. You pick one of those, and thats the winner. BUT...
[02:06:28] <Bytram> how do you plan to handle shipping along with some measure of privacy for the winner?
[02:36:17] <Sulla> Cool
[02:36:21] <Sulla> Dunno
[02:37:21] <Sulla> AC friend got sent a box of BlackBerrys from a guy we knew in college, all seem to be pretty new but still gotta make sure they all work good
[02:37:23] <Bytram> as far as I can figure... someone is going to have to trust someone else for that to work out, though I am welcome to ideas.
[02:37:34] <Sulla> Figured id figure it out once I knew what I had
[02:38:55] <Bytram> reminds me of a cartoon I saw a long time ago... (PHB announcing to a bunch of programmers) "You guys just start coding and I'll go find out what they want."
[02:39:00] <Bytram> =)

[03:04:52] <Bytram> the issue is not so much confirming *who* someone is, but rather, *how* to communicate the address where the prize is to be sent, while respecting a desire for privacy of one's location... be it the sender or the receiver....
[03:05:35] <Bytram> methinks this might have the makings of an interesting story for the site. Bring the combined wisdom of the community to bear on the problem!??!!
[03:06:33] <Bytram> Sulla: any chance you could provide a link to a page on the net which gives specs and model info on the 'prize phones'??

[03:20:04] <Sulla> Yeah, works good on the classic
[03:21:10] <Sulla> I figure will mostly be interesting for the fun, if you gonna resub anyways for like 20 bucks why not do it now and get a supersweet topoftheline* modern* blackberry

[03:26:25] <Bytram> Sulla: Quick thought before i go... should there be a minimum subscription amount/duration? I'm thinking we don't want someone making 10 x $20 donations instead of just 1 $200 donation.
[03:26:42] <Bytram> so, maybe one 'entry' per contest period?
[03:26:57] <Bytram> amount will not influence your odds of winning.
[03:27:15] <Bytram> I'll ponder on that and hope you (and others) will, too.
[03:27:56] <Bytram> Sulla: Not sure if i mentioned before, but just in case I had not: I am truly touched by your thoughtfulness and generosity!
[03:28:39] <Bytram> thank you!!!
