[02:13] <mwhudson> if you ever ever ever think that you should design a publishing system where AttributeError turns into some kind of not found error, please stop right there

[02:24] <wgrant> mwhudson: Be thankful you have an object publishing system, and not some horrid URL-regex-matcher.
[02:24] <mwhudson> wgrant: this is true
[02:24] <mwhudson> but then at least programming errors would look like programming errors
[02:25] <wgrant> True.
[02:26] <rockstar> mwhudson, are you talking about TraversalError?
[02:27] <mwhudson> rockstar: why, yes i am!
[02:28] <rockstar> mwhudson, the benefit of obscure exceptions like that is that curse words get SO creative, it's almost worth having the obscurity.  :)
[02:28] <mwhudson> yes, it's all an experiment to see if my rage can get hot enough to burn all the way through the earth's crust
[02:28] <mwhudson> (not this time; must try harder)
[02:30] <rockstar> Well, if you manage to put a whole through the earth, it would might make travelling to sprints a little easier.
[02:34] <jml> Quick! Fetch me my unobtanium armor!
[02:34] <lifeless> One word.
[02:34] <lifeless> "Acquisition".
[02:34] <thumper> AArrgg!
[02:34] <thumper> not acquisition!
[02:36] <mwhudson> lifeless: well yes, i would hope we'd have learnt the lesson a mere 10 years later
[02:36] <rockstar> I just realized that I misspelled "hole"  I used to not have these issues until we published that writing style guide.  I think it broke me.
[02:37] <mwhudson> (about, what, 15% we've been programming _at all_ as a race?)
[02:37] <lifeless> style guides are overrated
[02:37] <lifeless> :P
