| fmarier | how about the "mwhudson chilts & fmarier" quiz team? | 00:31 |
|---|---|---|
| mwhudson | fmarier: sounds good :) | 00:32 |
| chilts | sounds good! :) | 00:38 |
| chilts | mwhudson: I thought you were a maybe? | 00:38 |
| mwhudson | chilts: i am getting better at making decisions, perhaps | 00:39 |
| chilts | you just needed a few morning coffees to help you through :) | 00:39 |
| mwhudson | funnily enough, i had my first proper coffee (i.e. not decaf) for a good few days this morning | 00:40 |
| chilts | I had a decaf this morning, but been drinking tea since | 00:40 |
| thumper | mwhudson: I thought you had given up? | 01:01 |
| thumper | mwhudson: or is coffee now a periodic thing? | 01:01 |
| mwhudson | thumper: not given up, just trying not to be addicted | 01:02 |
| mwhudson | uds drove a nail through that for a while | 01:02 |
| fmarier | mwhudson: how long is the withdrawal period if you go cold turkey? | 02:13 |
| lifeless | 2 weeks IIRC | 02:13 |
| mwhudson | fmarier: maybe 4-5 days? | 02:14 |
| mwhudson | i think it depends how much you're drinking when you quit | 02:14 |
| mwhudson | for me, hours 48-72 ish were the worst | 02:14 |
| lifeless | ah, up to a week claims instant google results | 02:15 |
| * ajmitch can stop with caffeine any time he wants, honest | 02:15 | |
| mwhudson | tailing off gradually seems to work though and is a lot less unpleasant | 02:16 |
| mwhudson | one cup a day for a week, one cup every other day for a week, one cup every three days for the next and then stopping seems to work | 02:16 |
| snail | mwhudson: that solution requires three weeks of self control, and this is an addiction... | 03:00 |
| chilts | it took me 2.5 days to get over stopping coffeine | 03:06 |
| chilts | the headache on the 1st day was worst, then it was better, then fine | 03:06 |
| chilts | I sleep much better these days | 03:06 |
| ibeardslee | .. I wonder if that's why I get a headache over the weekend | 03:07 |
| chilts | ibeardslee: yes, that used to happen to me all the time | 03:07 |
| chilts | then I realised what it was | 03:07 |
| chilts | you probably sleep in longer, or get coffee later | 03:07 |
| ibeardslee | so the solution is a coffee on saturday and sunday morning | 03:07 |
| chilts | heh ;) | 03:07 |
| chilts | I hate code comments like 'File exists?', when the operation they are doing is "is readable" | 03:16 |
| ajmitch | & then the code explodes when it can't open the file due to permissions? | 03:19 |
| mwhudson | bonus points for using access(2) to do the checks | 03:22 |
| chilts | there are some interesting things in this code, like a global $param being stuffed all over the place | 03:36 |
| chilts | I also hate files which are named john.pm and have 'package Lucy;' in them ... it's very confusing | 03:37 |
| ibeardslee | you think that john.retard would be more appropriate? | 03:38 |
| chilts | indeed | 03:39 |
| ibeardslee | morning | 20:45 |
| ajmitch | morning | 20:55 |
| snail | morning | 21:15 |
| thumper | morning | 22:27 |
| hads | Morning | 22:49 |
| chilts | morning | 22:53 |
