[01:38:38] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - NASA Says it Will Pay Private Companies to Gather Moon Rocks - https://sylnt.us - penal-colony-on-the-moon
[02:11:47] <AzumaHazuki> i read that as "NSA" instead of NASA and briefly went "what the fuck do the spooks want moon rocks for?"
[02:16:20] <requerdanos> I'm mildly curious what NASA even wants them for
[02:46:44] <TheMightyBuzzard> requerdanos, i prefer my robots to have a healthy fear of being disassembled
[02:47:16] <requerdanos> That approach might have some promise, I must admit.
[02:47:37] <Bytram> don't anthropomorphize robots... they hate it when you do that!
[02:55:15] <AzumaHazuki> man...the idea of strong AI is a horror. we can't even get along with other humans, what the fuck do people think will happen with AI? Robot even means more or less slave
[03:00:20] <TheMightyBuzzard> thankfully, we have number 5 running as a veep nominee this time around to take care of that nonsense for us.

[03:12:15] <systemd> ^ 03Portland Overtakes Mos Eisley As Most Wretched Hive Of Scum And Villainy
[03:13:00] <requerdanos> That headline is as good as the Zucky Boy from earlier was bad.
[03:13:28] <TheMightyBuzzard> and with that, i bid you folks "screw you guys, i'm goin home"
[03:13:40] <requerdanos> Peace.
[03:14:13] <Bytram> TheMightyBuzzard: have a good night!
[03:14:29] <Fnord666> screw you too TheMightyBuzzard. go home then and take your ball with you.

[14:30:06] <SoyGuest27563> what's the simplest way of calculating the number of days in a given month in mysql?
[14:33:21] <requerdanos> stack overflow says SELECT DAY(LAST_DAY(yourdate))
[14:45:27] <SoyGuest27563> yeah, just worked that out as I scrolled down the manpage
[14:45:56] <requerdanos> works here; day(last_day(now())) returns 30
[14:47:09] <SoyGuest27563> I had a horrible expression datediff(thedate - interval(day(thedate))-1 day + interval 1 month, thedate - interval(day(thedate))-1 day)+1
[14:47:31] <SoyGuest27563> basically the difference between the start of next month and the start of this month.
[14:47:52] <SoyGuest27563> ooops, final +1 wasn't there
[14:48:07] <requerdanos> Whatever works, I say. Though brevity is nice.
[14:49:46] <requerdanos> I select all that with 2020-9-11 as thedate, it returns 30. Looks good to me.
[14:51:43] <SoyGuest27563> the simpler expression without the two '-interval(day(thedate))-1 day' bits fails on the 31st of most months, as it only jumps forward by the length of the next month with the '+inverval 1 month'
[14:52:32] <SoyGuest27563> date arithmetic is not commutative or even associative
[14:53:22] <SoyGuest27563> I guess I could have hopped forward a month, and then subtracted the day of month, and extracted the day from that.
[14:53:35] <SoyGuest27563> however, the correct answer is the shortest one, clearly.
[14:53:46] <requerdanos> date calculations can be capricious and arbitrary. In 1752, our calendar skipped 11 days.
[14:56:07] <SoyGuest27563> 13 here in 1918
[14:56:10] <SoyGuest27563> Thanks Putin!
