[00:15:39] <Bytram> In my case, I got errors trying to retrieve the story list page.
[00:16:04] <chromas> It seems to have a burp every once in a while
[00:16:25] <chromas> It's probably because we should be porting to Perl 6
[00:16:37] <chromas> or Python 4
[00:16:38] <Bytram> yep. Things seem to feel slower, lately.
[00:16:51] <chromas> It's the gdpr
[00:16:57] <Bytram> Or maybe they should have tried forth, first?
[00:17:06] <chromas> nah, try forth, fith

[13:11:24] <cmn32480> welcome back
[13:13:57] <Konomi> sorry if I don't remember everyone ~
[13:14:10] <cmn32480> it's ok
[13:14:22] <cmn32480> I can't remeber what I ate for breakfast

[13:18:56] <TheMightyBuzzard> you have a pool under your desk? you working at google.au or something?
[13:19:09] <cmn32480> I'm fixing inventory today... <sigh>
[13:19:13] <Konomi> no but it's dark and quiet and lacks anything to do with C#
[13:20:01] <TheMightyBuzzard> ick. i'd hide too.
[13:21:07] <Konomi> it's not that bad it's just working with the janky api that has nothing to do with c# is what is driving me up the wall
[13:21:15] <Konomi> nothing like error messages in engrish
[13:22:08] <TheMightyBuzzard> you get error messages? i've been writing MrPlow in rust lately so i just get called literally hitler when i forget a ; or what have you.
[13:24:14] <Konomi> never used rust
[13:24:20] <Konomi> I was supposed to be employed for perl
[13:24:39] <Konomi> think I've wrote in like 10 different languages now, work demands
[13:25:24] <TheMightyBuzzard> rust is good in that it keeps dumbass noobs from making as many dumbass noob mistakes. they still always find a way but only the really determined ones can really screw things up.
[13:25:54] <Konomi> moving from perl to python for that reason
[13:25:56] <TheMightyBuzzard> sounds about right. also sounds like job security.
[13:26:58] <Konomi> yeah I've given up on being religious about language syntax now
[13:27:25] <TheMightyBuzzard> i think perl's scared off most of the dumbass noobs by now. except me. i take pride in still making the occasional mistake like "==" != "eq".
[13:27:43] <Konomi> heh
[13:28:31] <TheMightyBuzzard> managed to slip that one into sn production code. broke AC gift subs for like three months until someone said something.
[13:28:47] <Konomi> I like perl but I recently read www.garshol.priv.no/download/text/perl.html and really agree with the Getting to dislike the Camel section
[13:29:12] <Konomi> especially: "Programmers and readability"
[13:29:39] <TheMightyBuzzard> i lurve it but mostly i lurve it for what it started out as. a practical extraction and reporting language
[13:30:31] <Konomi> I've had to deal with some of my bosses code it changes your thoughts on what mess can be made with perl
[13:33:21] <TheMightyBuzzard> it's getting kind of hard for me to recognize opaque code nowadays. i had to click over to the obfuscated perl contest to find anything that wasn't easily read and understood under getting to dislike the camel.
[13:34:35] <Konomi> oh for sure I can read all their examples easily but at the same time I realise they don't make a lot of sense for someone beginning a coding language
[13:35:32] <TheMightyBuzzard> nod nod. there was much cursing to be found upon the road to perl wisdom.
[13:36:55] <TheMightyBuzzard> but i'd still recommend it as what it stands for to anyone. if you're writing your own code and don't need to do anything but text mangling, it beats other scripting languages hands down.
[13:38:15] <Konomi> true, I care a lot about readability and others being able to pick up my code and understand it
[13:38:38] <Konomi> and perl really doesn't favor that imo
[13:39:08] <TheMightyBuzzard> not without discipline, nope.
[13:40:25] <Konomi> it's not that my perl is rather clean the problem is it's clean in the way I write it, and there's too many ways to write it
[13:40:40] <TheMightyBuzzard> heh, no doubt.
[13:40:52] <Bytram> Konomi: !! OMG!!!
[13:41:08] <Bytram> Missed You!
[13:41:10] <Konomi> omg ponies
[13:41:15] <Bytram> lol
[13:41:29] <Bytram> wow... how long had it been?
[13:41:38] <Konomi> about 4 years
[13:41:45] <Bytram> WoW!!!
[13:42:01] <Konomi> nah I play guild wars 2 not wow
[13:42:19] <Bytram> ah, that's what I remember... a keen sense of wit!
[13:42:29] <Konomi> oh my nice new desktop actually no more potatotop
[13:42:36] <TheMightyBuzzard> give rust a look sometime for something trivial. it's pretty damned good in theory at least, even if most of the library coders are noobasses who want to play with the shiny and new even where it doesn't make sense to.
[13:42:53] <Bytram> FWIW, according to a stats page I loaded on 2018-08-28 it had been 878 days ago since you were last seen here.
[13:43:05] * Bytram caries the two...
[13:43:06] <boru> Just don't ever try to build rust from source.
[13:43:21] <Konomi> https://gitlab.com
[13:43:24] <Konomi> oh how I love it
[13:43:26] * Bytram puts aside his iron and oxygen
[13:43:36] <TheMightyBuzzard> boru, um, gentoo
[13:43:48] <boru> BSD ports, here.
[13:44:01] <Bytram> Konomi: clicky
[13:44:30] <boru> What's that? You wanted to build www/firefox? Guess what! There's a new version of lang/rust too!"
[13:44:48] <TheMightyBuzzard> i've been building it from source indirectly since i started using it
[13:44:55] <boru> You poor man.
[13:45:01] <Konomi> using debian cause what I know
[13:45:11] <TheMightyBuzzard> s'not that bad. building firefox is worse.
[13:45:19] <boru> Rust definitely takes longer than firefox.
[13:45:27] <Bytram> Konomi: Nice! How do you like the "Cherry Brown" keys?
[13:45:30] <Konomi> I just use the builds mozilla provide tbh
[13:45:53] * Bytram keeps his eyes open for an extremely light throw, mechanical keyboard
[13:45:57] <Konomi> Bytram, I took a risk on them I was going to go reds but they remind me of c64 keyboard so browns ended up being a good choice
[13:46:13] <Bytram> heh
[13:46:25] <TheMightyBuzzard> cherry green > cherry brown. everyone needs to audibly share in my joy.
[13:46:27] <Bytram> you had a c64?
[13:46:30] <Konomi> c64 was linear tactile and used to those
[13:46:39] <Konomi> yeah from a second hand shop
[13:46:46] * Bytram does not remember... was too long ago
[13:46:50] <Bytram> ahh
[13:46:56] <Konomi> cause my family was poor and wouldn't get me a proper computer
[13:47:04] <Bytram> I got mine, oi, ~84 or 85
[13:47:05] <Konomi> sorry a new computer
[13:47:16] <Konomi> yeah I wasn't alive around then ;p
[13:47:25] <Bytram> yeah, I had to buy my own rigs
[13:47:38] * Bytram tries to remember

[13:47:48] <MrPlow> https://en.wikipedia.org - "Ohio Scientific Inc was an Ohio-based computer company that built and marketed microcomputers from 1975 to 1981. Their best-known products were the Challenger series of microcomputers, ... The Challenger 4P (C4P-MF) came with color display output capability, using a TV or TV converted to have direct video input, ..."
[13:48:08] <Bytram> ^^ that was my first computer
[13:48:15] <Konomi> but yeah I always liked the c64 keyboard
[13:48:36] <Konomi> so picking browns cause I couldn't find this kb in reds at the time worked out well
[13:48:42] <TheMightyBuzzard> hrm... need more coffee and need to get busy with the outdoors work before it gets hot outside
[13:48:44] <Bytram> yeah, I do recall that I had no complaints about the kbd; no issues with de-bouncing or missed reads
[13:48:49] <TheMightyBuzzard> later taters
[13:49:17] <Bytram> TheMightyBuzzard: ciao for now
[13:49:25] <Bytram> ahhh, here's a pic: https://upload.wikimedia.org
[13:49:26] <Konomi> TheMightyBuzzard, on perl btw another horrible thing you see people doing a lot is passing non refed huge arrays/hashes
[13:50:43] <Bytram> Oh, I nearly forgot!
[13:51:10] <Konomi> "I'm passing multi megabyte hashes between all my subs, why is my code so slow!?"
[13:51:36] <Bytram> One day I had my GF at the time over to visit. I was showing her around my place and then proudly showed her my computer. Her eyes suddenly got *HUGE*
[13:51:52] <TheMightyBuzzard> Konomi, that *occasionally* makes sense but you'd damned well better be able to explain why it makes sense for each occasion.
[13:51:52] <Bytram> "You work for OSI?"
[13:52:03] <Bytram> "Huh?"
[13:52:05] * TheMightyBuzzard finishes fucking off outside
[13:52:28] <Bytram> "You know! On the Six Million Dollar Man -- The Office of Secret Intelligence!"
[13:53:00] <Bytram> I couldn't keep myself from laughing.
[13:53:19] <Konomi> wat
[13:53:34] <Bytram> Oh, and fwiw, I recall that computer had full schematics and a cherry kbd.
[13:53:43] <Bytram> #g OSI six million dollar man
[13:53:43] <MrPlow> http://bionic.wikia.com - "The full name for which OSI is the acronym has been the source of some confusion throughout the runs of The Six Million Dollar Man, The Bionic Woman, and ..."
[13:54:28] <Bytram> that was the organization that "we can rebuild him. Make him stronger, faster than he ever was before."
[13:54:29] <Konomi> this is some old stuff
[13:54:36] * Bytram is not so young
[13:54:46] * Bytram is still young at heart, though.
[13:54:52] <Konomi> I thought you mean the osi model initially
[13:55:22] <Bytram> yeah, that is old now, too.
[13:55:47] <Bytram> got it back in late summer of '83 IIRC
[13:56:55] <Bytram> took me something like a month to earn enough money to but it.

[14:38:35] <exec> 10Humboldt, TN - currently 78°F, sunny, wind S at 6 mph, humidity 84% - Friday scattered thunderstorms (70°F:88°F), Saturday scattered thunderstorms (71°F:90°F), Sunday scattered thunderstorms (71°F:92°F), Monday mostly sunny (72°F:92°F)
[14:38:45] <TheMightyBuzzard> oh, that's why
[14:38:56] <TheMightyBuzzard> 84 fucking percent humidity
[14:40:01] <Konomi> and I'm here just freezing my butt off in roo land
[14:40:22] <Bytram> roo land? With Winnie and eyeore?
[14:40:58] <TheMightyBuzzard> Konomi, trade for an hour or two so i can get the hedges done without taking four showers?
[14:41:12] <Konomi> sure
[14:41:38] <Bytram> just set up a sprinkler over the hedge to cool you while you work!
[14:42:02] <Konomi> don't think hedge trimmer and water like each other
[14:42:21] <TheMightyBuzzard> manual hedge trimmer. chop chop chop.
[14:42:30] <Bytram> use the manual clippity clip scissors
[14:42:38] <Bytram> ninja's
[14:43:34] <TheMightyBuzzard> s'all we have around here. we allowed that spending more money to get less exercise was a bad idea for overweight, middle-aged men.
[14:44:35] <Bytram> and then you'd have to spend more money to go to the gym to burn off the calories you saved, amirite?
[14:44:52] <TheMightyBuzzard> on the other hand, i did lose five pounds this week just going out fishing most every day for half the day.
[14:44:56] <Bytram> and... is time for me to stop procrastinating and get going about my day
[14:45:12] <Konomi> I just want this headache to get lost right now
[14:45:15] <TheMightyBuzzard> fishing++
[14:45:15] <Bender> karma - fishing: 26
[14:45:19] <Bytram> Konomi: So VERY good to 'see' you again... hope you won't remain a strangr
[14:45:22] <Konomi> one of those persistent mild ones that will not go away
[14:45:23] <Bytram> headaches--
[14:45:23] <Bender> karma - headaches: -5
[14:45:34] <TheMightyBuzzard> tylenol++
[14:45:34] <Bender> karma - tylenol: 1
[14:45:36] <Bytram> oh, and for old time's sake:
[14:45:37] <Konomi> eh I might blab now and then
[14:45:38] <Bytram> poutine--
[14:45:38] <Bender> karma - poutine: -417
[14:45:42] <Konomi> lol
[14:45:51] * Bytram wondered if you'd remember!
[14:46:01] <Konomi> the karma remembers
[14:46:18] <Bytram> A lot of the old "noise makers" have wandered away... 'tis a tamer place, now.
[14:46:31] <Konomi> I figured
[14:47:00] <Bytram> yeah, I can actually afford to read all the scrollback, in over a dozen channels when I reconnect each day.
[14:47:11] <Bytram> granted some of 'em are purely diagnostic, but still.
[14:49:45] <Bytram> laters... have a great day, everyone!
[14:51:07] <Konomi> I use znc so scrollback gets saved
[14:52:41] <Konomi> kinda wish znc and bitlbee would get together and spawn a single project

[15:18:45] <AndyTheAbsurd> late to the party, TMB? https://soylentnews.org
[15:20:33] <TheMightyBuzzard> AndyTheAbsurd, gracias. dunno how i missed that. i'm gonna leave it there though. how are the eds supposed to post their quota of dupes if they don't have dupes to post.
[15:21:02] <Konomi> slowest car ever
[15:21:37] <AndyTheAbsurd> what do you expect when the world's largest tire manufacturer (by number of tires) makes a car?
[15:22:03] <Konomi> I meant the lego but okay
[15:22:08] <TheMightyBuzzard> so did he
[15:22:15] <Konomi> oh okay my mistake ;p
[15:22:22] <AndyTheAbsurd> Lego IS the world's largest manufacturer of tires. :-P
[15:22:31] <Konomi> I did not know this
[15:22:46] <AndyTheAbsurd> This is a factoid that I find amusing to bring on occasions when it becomes relevant.
[15:22:48] <TheMightyBuzzard> but yeah, the model t ran like 3x as fast as this car.
[15:23:19] <Konomi> I meant it's kinda cool but I remember someone making a yellow car already
[15:23:37] <AndyTheAbsurd> was it RUF?
[15:23:41] <Konomi> don't recall
[15:23:45] <AndyTheAbsurd> ...no wait, that's a car named "Yellowbird".
[15:23:45] <Konomi> it was yellow
[15:23:46] <Konomi> ;p
[15:24:54] <TheMightyBuzzard> mkay, it's now hot and nasty enough that i'm declaring health and safety reasons for not finishing up the outdoor work and moving on to indoor work.
[15:25:06] <Konomi> wait until night and do it
[15:25:30] <TheMightyBuzzard> have to be morning. it's really slow cooling down when you have this much vegetation around.
[15:25:52] <Konomi> thankfully I live in a unit in melb now
[15:25:58] <Konomi> no gardening for me
[15:26:05] <AndyTheAbsurd> Outdoor work sucks when it's hot.
[15:26:14] <AndyTheAbsurd> And I live in Florida, so it's almost always hot here.
[15:26:41] <AndyTheAbsurd> 88F/32C right now.
[15:26:51] <Konomi> summer will be awful here
[15:26:58] <Konomi> but I am so so tired of being cold
[15:27:39] <AndyTheAbsurd> #submit https://www.bbc.co.uk Daylight Saving Time is a bad idea in a modern world with electric lights, it should have been scrapped ages ago.
[15:27:42] <MrPlow> Submitting. There is a mandatory delay, please be patient.
[15:27:50] <Konomi> and I don't like wearing a lot of clothes

[15:28:19] <Konomi> can't wait to just walk around in my PJ top in summer
[15:28:51] <TheMightyBuzzard> i'd get arrested for that. i don't wear pjs.
[15:30:16] <Konomi> well I wasn't going to go outside ;p
[15:36:15] <Konomi> outside has people, really unpleasant
[15:37:41] <TheMightyBuzzard> it has fish too though. this is important to me until i get a place with a stocked pond as a basement.
[15:38:35] <Konomi> then accidently dropping the remote into your basement pong becomes a real issue
[15:39:50] <TheMightyBuzzard> true but if you keep a woodchipper downstairs it makes disposing of bodies really simple
[15:41:25] <Konomi> I swear they just jumped right into it officer

[18:59:27] <TheMightyBuzzard> two things: 1) we have a beehive in one of our hedges. 2) overweight and out of shape or not, i can outrun pissed off bees when necessary.
[19:09:35] <Bytram> best bee careful out there, eh?
[19:10:11] <TheMightyBuzzard> nah, why waste a perfectly good excuse to bee inside?
[19:10:35] <Bytram> it makes it a little bit more difficult to go fishing?
[19:11:17] <TheMightyBuzzard> true but it's already hotter than the devil's sack out there. almost enough to make me quit smoking.
[19:11:40] <Bytram> find some shade?
[19:11:52] <Bytram> battery-powered fan?
[19:12:05] <Bytram> stand in a kiddie pool, full of ice water?
[19:12:06] <TheMightyBuzzard> maybe one of them navy sub batteries
[19:12:27] * Bytram is not familiar with those
[19:13:33] <TheMightyBuzzard> they're for storing the electricity from a nuclear submarine's reactor, so, big.
[19:16:26] <TheMightyBuzzard> not big like pre-nuclear sub batteries but damned lot bigger than a D-cell
