rick_h_followed up by: (in short: I need a better general purpose mechanism for handling dynamic domain dependencies like this, without the code itself become organized the same way.  Hmm..)00:28
rick_h_me: composition > inheritance, expecially when you get into python and can do things like mixins to get most of inheritence without direct inheritene00:28

WolfgerWoot. A bug filed in December 2007 and closed in February 2009 due to lack of response to the inevitable "does this bug affect latest version?" was finally fixed upstream in August 2011.12:16
WolfgerHuzzah for open source :-p12:16
brouschmaybe you should've fixed it yourself12:16
Wolfger:-)12:17
WolfgerI don't even know wtf "shaketracker" is, much less have the ability/interest to fix it. But thank you for demonstrating that wonderful FOSS attitude towards bugs.12:18
brouschmy pleasure12:18
rick_h_grrr, not starting out well today.12:18
rick_h_after one full meeting, a 1->1 meeting, and gobs of email the damn excel sheet isn't right12:19
rick_h_so finally broke down and fixed the whole damn thing12:19
rick_h_yay for having to hack/fix excel12:19
Wolfger\o/12:20
brouschrick_h_: so did the experience convince you to ditch python and go all VBA?12:22
rick_h_brousch: I'm not suicidal yet12:26
snap-lshaketracker is a MOD making program, iirc12:49
snap-lnote the operative word, rick_h_, "yet". ;)12:49
WolfgerIf I took my laptop outside, sat on the ground, and worked the rest of the day out there, would anybody notice? Would anybody care?13:23
snap-lI wouldn't concern myself with such matters13:23
snap-lin other words, find out. ;)13:24
snap-lare you at CTC?13:24
Wolfgerwell of course *you* wouldn't. You're used to being unemployed. XD13:24
Wolfgerno, I'm at the plant13:24
snap-lWolfger: Too soon. ;)13:24
Wolfgersorry13:24
Wolfger:-)13:24
Wolfgerat ctc I could just take a "working lunch" out on the patio and stay there forever13:25
Wolfgerand I wouldn't even have to sit on the ground13:25
rick_h_man I hate IE...it won't even run my JS unit tests. Just times out and hangs yay for being too damn slow. Though this is IE8 I suppose13:31
WolfgerOne thing O'Reilly deal of the day does for me... reminds me how many things are out there that I haven't got a clue about.13:32
snap-lWolfger: What's the DoD today?13:33
Wolfgersnap-l: Practical JIRA Plugins13:34
snap-lJIRA is a ticketing system from Atlassian13:34
snap-lit's written in Java13:34
snap-land I only know that because our engineers at Geeknet used it13:34
jrwrenif anyone is interested in PHP adn sysadmin job in Saline: http://www.quantumsignal.com/about_qs/career/13:35
snap-lAre we all pretty much burned out on PHP now?13:36
snap-lI mean, besides using Wordpress and Drupal. ;)13:38
brouschwho uses drupal?13:39
snap-lA few people use Drupal13:40
snap-lhttp://decafbad.net/2011/08/11/pyohio-so-much-awesome-in-so-little-time/14:58
snap-lApparently I'm a blogging machine today.14:58
snap-l(or a blabbermouth. ;) )14:59
brouschwhere'd you go to dinner?15:01
snap-lSage15:04
snap-lAn American Bistro. ;)15:04
snap-lIt was the result of looking on Google Places for somewhere to eat15:05
snap-land we walked there. ;)15:05
snap-lThe theme of the weekend was walking. ;)15:06
brouschi ate at the alumni club puf last year15:08
brouschit wasn't bad15:08
brouschpub15:09
snap-lOh yeah?15:09
snap-lCool15:09
brouschright near the end of whatever street the blackwell is on15:09
rick_h_can anyone hit http://build.bmark.us ?15:12
_stink_spinning here15:12
rick_h_booo, ok home desktop must have gone off or something then. Thanks15:12
rick_h_was trying to sneak fix that pgsql test failure at work, but now I can't see it pass15:13
snap-lYeah, it's not responding15:13
_stink_:/15:13
rick_h_oh well15:13
snap-lNot sure why, but banshee tends to hang when I close it and doesn't come back15:14
snap-lI'll notice my display gets sluggish, and note that Banshee is taking up 100% without actually running15:14
rick_h_http://blog.eset.com/2011/05/17/obfuscated-javascript-oh-what-a-tangled-web15:22
rick_h_Blazeix widox ^15:22
snap-lI'm firmly in the camp that if you obfuscate because you think someone will steal your code, you're fucking stupid.15:36
snap-land if you're obfuscating because of some perceived speed-up, you'd better have benchmarks to back it up, or you're stupid15:37
rick_h_yea, but getting blocked as malicious/virus because you pack js/15:37
rick_h_not something I'd thought about running into15:37
snap-lI hated that shit when it first reared it's ugly head in the Java world.15:37
rick_h_jquery, google js library, all the .min files are packed15:38
rick_h_just following the example of smarter people for some15:38
snap-lThat makes sense, though because they're running a CDN with thousands upon thousands of requests15:38
snap-levery little bit helps15:39
rick_h_right, but I can see someone new just following the lead15:39
snap-lbut if you're running a site that has a handful of requests per second, it's not going to help much15:39
rick_h_without knowing why "it makes it faster"15:39
snap-lagain, stupid. ;)15:39
rick_h_then again pagespeed apache module does that kind of stuff15:39
rick_h_caches compressed/packed versions of your js file15:40
rick_h_anyway, interesting15:40
snap-lIt's the same problem over and over again15:40
rick_h_yea15:40
snap-ldelivering content to clients depends on trust, and it's unfortunately very easy to fake certain levels of trust15:41
snap-lif something goes rogue on your system, cleartext or not, you're screwed. ;)15:42
snap-land obfuscation is yet again another arrow in the quver of malware.15:42
snap-lI rue the day when someone hacks jquery and uploads some rogue, compressed .js15:42
snap-l Can anyone parse what the hell this is trying to say? http://paste.mitechie.com/show/06BzCZkyfBPnputd0Bhe/15:59
snap-lGee, I'll fill out Refund_Form.exe right away16:01
Wolfgersnap-l: Python is a replacement for FORTRAN?16:14
Wolfgersnap-l: also, let me fix something for you.... s/turned into a diaspora/turned into joindiaspora.com/  :-D16:17
snap-lWolfger: har har16:52
snap-lWolfger: Python has awesome numerical libraries16:52
snap-lscipy and numpy are reason enough to ditch FORTRAN if you are still using it. ;)16:53
WolfgerCraig Maloney, blogging machine.17:10
snap-lyeah, I'm a blabbermouth today.17:18
rick_h_hey, am I back?17:24
rick_h_yay!17:24
=== JonathanS is now known as JonathanD
snap-lquiveray17:40
snap-lFuckin' hell.17:40
rick_h_uh what?17:47
snap-lNEver mind17:49
WolfgerI think I see a pattern here...17:55
WolfgerProgrammers StackExchange has a lot of "questions" closed for basically being lame17:55
WolfgerThey also have a lot of "questions" migrated from Stack Overflow17:56
WolfgerStackOverflow only has quality questions17:56
WolfgerProgrammers == StackOverflow's recycle bin17:56
snap-lWolfger: Gee, you figure? :)18:33
nullspacenot sure why most questions can't be answered by jfgi18:40
nullspaceand then testing out some guess until it works18:40
nullspacethen again it's better than expert exchange18:41
Wolfgersnap-l: Yeah, I know, I'm slow in that realization18:46
WolfgerI was hypnotized by the trollishness of Programmers18:46
WolfgerI mean, some of that stuff is genuinely funny (though not intended as such)18:47
nullspaceWolfger: it can't be as funny as the using regex to parse html18:48
Wolfgernullspace: hey now18:53
Wolfgermy single-purpose perl scripts work just fine18:53
snap-lI think most questions over at programmers.se can be answered thusly:18:53
snap-l"Stop procrastinating, put your big-boy pants on, and get back to work"18:53
Wolfger<headdesk> Chrysler tows (*sic*) the line. </headdesk> http://blog.chryslerllc.com/entry/1503/chrysler_group_working_with_suppliers_to_tow_the_line_on_vehicle_pricing18:54
snap-lHurry Journaleasm18:55
WolfgerI am so embarrassed to work for a company who can't hire a PR guy who knows English idioms18:55
Wolfgermy comment will probably be moderated out of existence.18:56
snap-lheadline was corrected, but the link remains the same.18:59
snap-lI also love that none of the images are displayable.19:01
snap-lhttp://blog.chryslerllc.com/entry/1503/images/images/masthead_chrysler_logo.gif19:01
snap-lwho do they pay for PR, because they need to get their shit together.19:01
snap-lhttp://blog.chryslerllc.com/blog.do?id=1503&p=entry Apparently this is the URL now.19:02
nullspacesnap-l: well now we know how they are paying for higher productions costs, PR and marketing is taking a hit19:13
krondornullspace:  marketing took a huge hit, Chrysler dropped BBDO after like a 75 year relationship for marketing.  I think it's in house now.19:30
krondorwe hired about half of BBDOs fall out IT workers from MI.  I think Chrysler marketing did do a good job with the super bowl though really...19:30
jrwrenvery good job19:40
snap-lYeah, the superbowl marketing was genius20:00
snap-lI think their marketing is over in italy, now.20:00
snap-lAnd this is why copyright needs standardization: All Naxos Historical, Naxos Classical Archives, Naxos Jazz, Folk and Rock Legends and Naxos Nostalgia titles are not available in the United States and some titles may not be available in Australia and Singapore because these countries have copyright laws that provide or may provide for terms of protection for sound recordings that differ from the rest of the world.20:06
snap-lAll because copyrighted works before 1972 are uncertain of their status20:14
_stink_don't worry, the RIAA is working on that for you20:16
snap-lYeah, no kidding20:19
snap-lpretty soon I won't be able to listen to music at all without a writ promising that I won't hear it20:19
jrwrenof coruse you will... you will just be violating someones (C) right.20:21
jrwrenits OK.20:21
jrwrenthe first step is acknowledging that that they shouldn't have those rights.20:21
snap-l"Your associated account on Role-playing Games has passed 200 reputation: +100 reputation"20:21

snap-lMan, having someone accept your answer is like a reputation goldmine.20:22
