widoxrick_h_: awesome13:53
widoxheh, whoops13:53
rick_h_see, the man's all excited about a keycap puller13:54
brouschHow is this not a fetish?13:56
rick_h_there aren't online videos of it involving people missing clothing?13:56
* brousch pulls up an incognito window to check that statement13:58
rick_h_http://www.tumblr.com/tagged/mechanical-keyboard?before=130742643713:58
rick_h_so that does include the word fetish, but I think he's mistaken13:59
brouschBoom, second hit http://www.destructoid.com/elephant//ul/5292-468x-Gaming_Fetish_by_PortraitGallery.jpg13:59
brouschAll the naughty bits are covered, so probably SFW13:59
rick_h_psh, so that's not a real keyboard. That's a gamer with glowing bits13:59
snap-lhttp://everyjoe.com/files/130/2006/07/angel-kitty-usb-chest-keyboard.jpg13:59
rick_h_gaming == fetish...not keyboards13:59
snap-lYou're welcome13:59

jcastro_rick_h_: weird14:31
jcastro_restarting xchat worked14:31
rick_h_jcastro_: strange14:31
rick_h_something wanted to change the port for ssl I bet.14:31
rick_h_file a bug!14:31
snap-lWhere would one do that? :)14:32
rick_h_add another person to the list... http://thomaslarock.com/2012/10/use-what-works-prefixing-database-tables-with-tbl/14:37
snap-lNO NO NO NO NO14:37
snap-lGod, that's like adding a .txt to a text file in UNIX14:38
brouschI do that14:39
snap-lbrousch: We already have your coordinates.14:39
snap-lJust need the materials to make it happen. ;)14:40
snap-lSeriously, though, hungarian notation needs to just go the way of the dodo14:41
snap-lAs a "it was nice when our tools were crude, and our intellects dulled, but now that we have better tools and the FUCKING RENAISSANCE happened, we're good"14:42
brouschCalm down d00d14:46
=== JonathanS is now known as JonathanD
widoxrick_h_: well, he is an SQL Rockstar...14:56
_stink_god15:08
_stink_the comments on that table prefix post are something else15:08
_stink_the first couple are very lucid and make the points that need to be made15:09
_stink_then there's this gem:15:09
snap-lThis is the kind of shit that we suffered at Chrysler.15:09
_stink_"The truth in the matter is that the only thing that really matters is that you code and naming standards are consistent and readable."15:09
_stink_really?15:09
_stink_then i'll name all strings "dog" + the string value of a counter.15:09
snap-lYeah, 13 character names for tables / columns, with the leader being the data type15:09
snap-lintfrblnomglf15:10
snap-lReally fucking readable.15:10
snap-land we had MEEETINGS to make them consistent15:11
_stink_i love it15:11
snap-lHonestly, it was mostly because we had IBM's bullshit UNIX version of DB215:11
snap-lwhich was like wearing bellbottoms in 200015:11
snap-lUnless you're doing it ironically, you're doing it wrong. ;)15:12
jrwrenrick_h_: i imagine you rage facing pretty hard when you ran across that g+ doctest.js post15:44
jrwrenthere is no such thing as an SQL rockstar. if SQL was music it would be gregorian chanting.16:00
rick_h_I like that16:00
snap-ljrwren: Could we at least have the headless monks from Doctor Who?16:05
snap-lI'd like to think my SQL has flaming swords or something16:05
jrwrensure16:17

jcastro_anyone know if James Hice is on IRC?17:41
snap-lNot at the moment17:41
jcastro_but does he irc?17:41
jcastro_I guess is the question17:41
rick_h_yea, he just hops in from time to time17:41
rick_h_waldoxxx (can't recall the rest) is hisnick17:42
jcastro_ah right17:42
snap-lYeah17:42
jcastro_we have new neighbors17:42
jcastro_and they friend James on FB17:43
snap-lAre they a part of Penguicon?17:43
jcastro_so they might be nerds17:43
jcastro_which would be awesome17:43
jcastro_not sure17:43
brouschWhat's hisnick?17:43
jcastro_dunno17:43
snap-ljcastro_: Do you know their names?17:43
jcastro_Eric Castle17:43
jcastro_forget her name17:43
snap-lNot ringing a bell17:43
rick_h_that sounds familiar17:43
jcastro_http://vim.spf13.com/17:45
jcastro_look, insta-rick vim!17:45
rick_h_bah, not another one17:45
Blazeixanybody know of a service that allows you to follow authors and musicians, and notifies you when they release new material?17:46
snap-lBlazeix: I'd like to know.17:46
snap-lOutside of stalking folks on Twitter, I have no idea17:47
Blazeixi'm at the point where i'm thinking i should learn NLP and parse wikipedia...17:47
snap-lAmazon is pathetic for letting me know about new releases.17:47
Blazeixbut i suspect that road leads to misery17:47
Blazeixoh, duh, amazon might be a better datasource >_<17:47
snap-lBlazeix: Maybe it's a biz model.17:47
snap-lor discogs17:47
snap-lbut I think Discogs lags17:48
rick_h_yea, you'd almost think amazon sohuld have a wishlist author/artist feature17:48
brouschBlazeix: Kickstart that shit!17:51
rick_h_Blazeix: and then nlp up bookie for the tag suggestions kthx :)17:51
snap-l;)17:51
Blazeixi bookmarked a nlp link on bookie. does that count?17:55
Blazeixeven added a 'nlp' tag!17:55
brouschI feel much better now that I have a manifesto to follow http://dot.kde.org/2012/10/08/kde-manifesto18:00
rick_h_Blazeix: lol, there should be a few18:02
rick_h_https://bmark.us/recent/nlp18:02
rick_h_and none are mine doh18:03
rick_h_ah, I went for spelled out doh https://bmark.us/recent/natural18:03
rick_h_there all better18:03
rick_h_ok...so someone let me know why I can't say 'wtf!!!' to this comment in here http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=463733918:43
rick_h_the new high res screen..one one version of one laptop...that they *just* released...is what is the base case for the font rendering in the OS?18:43
brouschWhy are you so caremad about this?18:47
brouschIs the fact that Apple makes the best keyboards in the world enticing you back to a Mac?18:47
rick_h_because it just strikes me as the perfect apple fanboi response to something "You're using it wrong. Clearly fonts are targeted for retina using macbook users...which is a VERY limited install/sold base"18:47
rick_h_ummm, no no no and no18:48
rick_h_they make the best trackpads, thinkpad keyboards ftw18:48
snap-lrick_h_:  I didn't get that from the post. It is just that Apple choses hinting that errs on the side of "correctness" instead of Ubuntu's hinting19:10
rick_h_snap-l: I was referring to the comment19:11
snap-lAgain, I'm not seeing the problem. Apple has always erred towards print19:12
snap-lThey finally got the screen that makes sense for the mac: the retina display.19:12
rick_h_I guess I need to express my confused rage to the comment in person tonight. I'll try to really emphasize my issue :)19:13
* snap-l senses that's a euphemism for "hit on the head with a baseball bat"19:13
* snap-l will bring his "The Mac is not a Typewriter" book.19:14
rick_h_hah19:14
Blazeixparty going on in #coffeehousecoders20:24
mulkahello20:27
snap-lparty?20:29
Blazeixparty.20:30
snap-lI need evidence.20:34
snap-lso far, no evindence found20:34
mulkaparty?20:35
rick_h_mulka: party20:53
Blazeixwe probably need an irc bot in here that's triggered by the word 'party'21:42
greg-gor, an irc bot that just says party every 2 hours of silence22:16
Blazeixwouldn't want to put rick_h_ out of a job :P22:25
greg-gBlazeix: I'm just trying to give him more wordworking time!22:33
rick_h_hah!22:33
