[00:25] i'm holding a nexus 7 from work [00:26] and I'm still glad I got an ipad, but not becuase i think it was a good value or even better [00:26] i mean this thing is nice [00:27] might but one [00:27] s/ut/uy [00:29] only thing ipad has on it is larger screen, decent audio apps, and I get to own an ios device as an aspiring mobile developer [00:29] but yea if the goal was to have a tablet, this thing crushes the ipad [02:55] i have this idea re escaping from weeping angles [02:55] it involves a sledge [03:05] Doctor Who? [03:22] yes [03:32] party [11:22] Good morning [15:26] ah, nothing like receiving PSDs from a designer to make my blood boil. [15:26] Send them back as .xcf [15:26] hehe [15:27] or .tiff files, via e-mail [15:27] not even the psd format - i'm fine with that [15:27] just the utter lack of user experience considerations [15:27] Ah, the "it's all there, just in the bitmap" [15:28] "This needs to be 238px from the left margin" [15:28] yeah, and the transparent parts of the sprites aren't transparent, they have the background image as part of the layer [15:28] fail [15:28] i do appreciate his gratuitous use of drop shadows ~ [15:28] ugh [15:28] and of course, it's not in a separate layer, is it? [15:29] well, it is a separate layer, but somehow the background image got rasterized to part of that layer [15:29] Is he / she an approachable designer? [15:29] someone should also tell him that menus that suddenly omit items depending on the context is _so_ microsoft office 2003. [15:30] Hey, don't knock it. Many design I did had that. ;) [15:30] yeah, i'll bitch at him about the quality of the PSDs, but the lack of ux considerations is more troubling [15:30] I'm sure those 16x16 gif files would be awesome on 1920x monitors. [15:33] I prefer menu items that change to a more muted color if they're not avilabl [16:10] I prefer NO MENU ITEMS AT ALL, muahahhaa [16:10] sorry, don't know where that came from... I'll go away for a bit.. [17:47] snap-l: I was annoyed with myself and that rackspace challenge, went back and did it right. Time was 7 mins :) [17:51] heh [17:51] 3 minutes is a hard nut to crack. [17:57] yeah 3:40 I think was the record. It was a fun challenge though, I liked the mysql test. Had a kind of duh moment there [17:58] mysql.php file had user=blah password=IAMWRONG database=blah .. I'm like sitting there how do I crack the password on the db. [17:58] oh wait, sudo mysql -i grant all on etc.. haha duh [18:14] IIRC if you have root on a box its easy to set the mysql root password too. [18:21] it's really just the source of that PHP file that throws you because you see WRONGPASSWORD [18:22] sets your mind on the course of, let's find the right one instead of let's set the right one. === lotia is now known as lotia-away [19:15] Heh, Carl Karsten outed me on the ChiPy mailing list when they were talking about a Python and Android meeting. I've been unlurked! [23:00] http://i.imgur.com/NDrRu.png
