rick_h__phew, done and cleaned up...I'm exhausted01:49
snap-lrick_h__: Woot?01:51
rick_h__snap-l: heh yea01:55
snap-lhttp://www.amazon.com/World-Percussion-LK58401G-Gath-Drum-Slvr/dp/B000ED64L2/ref=reg_hu-rd_add_1_dp01:57
snap-lI think we need to take up a collection to have this at the next release party.01:58
rick_h__heh02:01
snap-lHo boy. Kim Jong-il died.04:13
snap-lInteresting times predicted.04:13
_stink_"Kim Jong Il died of "overwork," according to North Korean state TV. "04:14
_stink_that is hilarious.04:14
snap-lI'd expect nothing less04:15
snap-lEven if he had 15 shopping bags over his head, noose around his neck, and a Quaker Oatmeal canister shoved up his ass, I think they'd call it "overwork".04:16
_stink_well, being a dictator is complicated.04:16
snap-lBeing a megalomaniac is complicated04:17
snap-lBeing a dictator, notsomuch04:17
snap-lWe've just associated the two04:17
greg-gsnap-l: wow, that's an image04:38
_stink_quick, someone gimp that up04:39
brouschusing web2py with SQLServer?13:02
snap-l_iOS for health13:02
snap-l_Head First COBOL13:02
rick_h__lol @ xkcd today13:02
rick_h__http://twitter.com/#!/workforfood/status/148601921173860352 best tweet today hands down :)13:04
snap-l_Yeah, that's a goodie.13:04
snap-l_Though IE6 is dwindling in marketshare.13:04
rick_h__true, these days I keep doing a /6//13:05
snap-l_I swear, though, it'll be 2021, and IE6 will still have 1%13:05
snap-l_"YOUR MACHINE SHOULD HAVE BLOWN UP BY NOW! HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE?"13:05
snap-l_Two constants in a post-apocalyptic hellhole world: cockroaches, and IE6 > 1% marketshare.13:06
rick_h__yea, in my world though IE8 is just as destructive to doing cool stuff any more though13:07
rick_h__ie9 finally got 90% there, but ugh on those numbers13:07
rick_h__and ie10 finally makes it to a real browser, but that's in dev still13:07
snap-l_What really grinds me is the number of applications that I've seen that with a little bit of extra effort could be completely cross-browser13:08
snap-l_but they don't take that extra step13:08
rick_h__yea, LP breaks on IE with stupid small JS bugs13:08
rick_h__I've filed a couple, could work faily easily, but no one tests it and qa's it on IE so it's just broken for no good reason13:08
rick_h__now, it'd still perform for @#$@# on the heavy JS stuff, but at least it'd run13:09
snap-l_I can't believe I'm about to type this, but Javascript needs an ANSI standard.13:10
snap-l_something that we can point to and say "this is compliant, this is not"13:10
rick_h__? ECMA not good enough for you? :)13:10
snap-l_Does it keep Microsoft from doing stupid shit?13:10
rick_h__no one ever said a standard made things comply13:10
rick_h__see iphones with the deep recessed headphone jacks that required apple headphones :)13:11
rick_h__(3g? don't recall the one that had that)13:11
snap-l_I think it was the early iPhone13:11
snap-l_don't remember offhand.13:11
snap-l_I wonder if most of what we push blame on Javascript should be placed at Microsoft's DOM implementation.13:12
* snap-l_ hasn't done any JS on IE, so I don't know for certain.13:13
=== snap-l_ is now known as snap-l
rick_h__http://caniuse.com/#compare=y&b1=ie+8&b2=ie+913:13
rick_h__http://caniuse.com/#compare=y&b1=ie+9&b2=ie+1013:13
rick_h__that's just crap from IE 8 -> 9 -> 1013:13
rick_h__in particular in the ie9 -> 10 see all the fancy lovely css for gradients/animations/etc I want to use but can't in any "stable" IE13:14
rick_h__along with web workers, sockets, and html5 history13:14
snap-lYeah, that sucks13:14
rick_h__nothing to do with their DOM implementation...just features not there13:15
snap-lbut, on the plus side, at least it's getting worked on13:15
snap-lrick_h__: Well, I mean the other shit not working13:15
rick_h__http://caniuse.com/#compare=y&b1=ie+9&b2=chrome+1013:15
snap-llike events and stuff13:15
rick_h__so compare that to an "old" chrome 1013:15
rick_h__meh, if you're not using a library to fix that crap you're doing it wrong13:15
rick_h__so I don't worry about those bits13:15
rick_h__http://caniuse.com/#compare=y&b1=ie+9&b2=firefox+4 1e-9 to ff4 for a more comparable timeframe13:16
rick_h__anyway, that's my personal "die in a fire ie die" reasoning13:16
snap-lOh yeah, no doubt.13:16
snap-lIE has done plenty to hold back web standards and make life a living hell for developers.13:17
rick_h__snap-l: get ready :)13:17
rick_h__staples is finally all IE813:18
snap-lOh, I know.13:18
snap-ljippe13:18
rick_h__and who knows on the chrysler stuff13:18
snap-lALU finally moved everything to IE813:18
rick_h__http://caniuse.com/#compare=y&b1=ie+8&b2=chrome+1513:19
snap-lIt'll get there eventually. ;)13:20
snap-lrick_h__: I think the real reason the O'Reilly Deal isn't appealing is because you've already got 'em all. ;)13:33
snap-lWell, apparently Skype is acting like a cock-monkey14:33
rick_h__surprise!14:34
snap-lFinally got it working14:37
snap-lWaiting for the other party to connect. :)14:37
nullspaceI don't want to know what cock-moneky's throw when they are angry14:44
ColonelPanic001I'd say, but greg_g might coc-slap me14:47
rick_h__crap...upgrade borked my video :(15:09
snap-lOh, that's no fun15:17
rick_h__dammit...15:20
rick_h__how do you get the grub menu these days?15:20
rick_h__it boots right past it and no amount of button mashing gets me the kernel list15:21
snap-lhold shift.15:24
snap-land pray you don't have a USB keyboard that pairs late with the OS. ;)15:25
rick_h__dammit I hate mondays16:25
snap-lNever got the hang of Mondys.16:38
snap-lWell, I'm a goof16:39

_stink_especially when it's embedded in your window manager19:28
snap-lYeah, but then you get into (* (+ 3 4) 7)19:28
snap-land that just looks strange.19:29
* snap-l fired up clojure to make sure it worked. ;) )19:29

greg-ghttps://github.com/ralphbean/bugwarrior19:47
snap-lOh, that's pretty nice.19:50
snap-lWould have been a killer feature for Task Warrior and Sf.net19:51
