01:13:27 <sbp> *** sbp has changed the topic to: I can gleek upon occasion.
01:16:40 <sbp> d8uv: Non-Sequitur
01:17:17 <Talliesin> Methinks, mistress, you should have little reason
01:17:17 <Talliesin> for that: and yet, to say the truth, reason and
01:17:17 <Talliesin> love keep little company together now-a-days; the
01:17:17 <Talliesin> more the pity that some honest neighbours will not
01:17:17 <Talliesin> make them friends. Nay, I can gleek upon occasion.

01:24:15 <sbp> ha, good piece

01:35:45 <Talliesin> Here, this doesn't have to be [off] any more.
01:35:49 <sbp> okay
01:35:57 <Talliesin> The character was A-Acute.
01:36:11 <sbp> thanks
01:36:12 <Talliesin> Though in the context of Irish we'd call it A-Fada
01:36:16 <sbp> yeah
01:36:34 <sbp> does Irish have other diacritics?
01:37:22 <Talliesin> In the older orthography there is the séimhiú, a dot placed above consonants.
01:37:37 <Talliesin> In modern orthography we follow the consonant with a h
01:37:42 <sbp> oh right, I read about that. now it's... yeah
01:37:52 <sbp> precede, no?
01:38:18 <Talliesin> Sadhbh == Saḋḃ
01:38:29 <sbp> ah, no, following
01:38:50 <sbp> '("h" sometimes appears at beginning of a word before a vowel, or in words borrowed from English. It is pronounced the same as in English when used by itself before a vowel.)' - http://www.standingstones.com/gaelpron.html
01:38:55 <Talliesin> There are occassions were a h precedes a vowel, but then it's a letter proper.
01:39:06 <Talliesin> hehe, snap
01:39:09 <sbp> :-)
01:39:25 <sbp> any others in rare context?
01:39:41 <Talliesin> ?
01:40:07 <Talliesin> other h's?
01:40:12 <sbp> any other diacritics, sorry
01:40:30 <Talliesin> nope.
01:41:03 <sbp> then English has more, but used much less frequently
01:41:46 <Talliesin> Ah, well they're all loan words.
01:41:55 <sbp> nope
01:42:06 <sbp> acute and circumflex certainly
01:42:15 <sbp> but umlaut and grave are native
01:42:25 <sbp> example hoicked from the logs: "The naïve Sean asked the preëminent and learnèd Javier whether the paté at the fête was any good."
01:42:43 <sbp> dunno if you'll see those correctly. can utf-8ise if you'd like, but you can guess too
01:42:58 <Talliesin> paté and fête are borrowed
01:43:07 <sbp> hence <sbp> acute and circumflex certainly
01:44:07 <sbp> I'd like to be proven wrong on that though; if anyone knows of occasions where native English words have acute or circumflex, answers on a postcard...
01:44:21 <Talliesin> I think naïve is a loan word that's been naturalised but would be problematic to remove it's diacriticals, similarly façade and résumé.
01:44:22 <themaximus_> *** themaximus_ is now known as themaximus
01:45:06 <sbp> hmm, good point. though I don't think I've seen facade often with the cedille. difficult to represent
01:45:12 <Talliesin> Not sure though.
01:45:25 <Talliesin> Personally I prefer coöperate to co-operate, but that's a rare form.
01:45:42 <sbp> 1,940 on Google
01:46:04 <sbp> "The diaeresis is also occasionally used on native English words for the above purposes (as in "coöperate", "reënact", and the surname "Brontë"), but this usage has become very rare since the 1940s. The New Yorker magazine is noted as one of the few sources that still spells "coöperate" with a diaeresis." - http://www.wordiq.com/definition/Diaeresis
01:46:21 <Talliesin> I similarly prefer æ and œ to either the modern British ae and oe or the horrible American e and, eh, e.
01:46:24 <themaximus> *** themaximus has quit (Read error: 54 (Connection reset by peer))
01:47:07 <sbp> for circumflex, that site only says " In English, the circumflex is sometimes used on loanwords; for example, rôle.", so no native words I guess
01:47:08 <themaximus> *** themaximus (~Max@themaximus.registered) has joined #swhack
01:47:24 <sbp> sorry, utf-8 problem again; ligatures?
01:47:45 <Talliesin> hmm, I can see all your diacriticals perfectly.
01:48:11 <Talliesin> Yes ligatures.
01:48:14 <sbp> and the Swhack logs are being displayed for me in iso-8859-1 even though sent as utf-8. Firefox probably munges
02:17:23 <sbp> not capitalized (see clauses 3.18 and 3.32).
02:18:07 <sbp> d8uv, do you hear?
02:18:11 <sbp> I said not capitalized
02:31:01 <themaximus> heh.

02:35:03 <sbp> hmm

02:36:54 <sbp> <Talliesin> 2. Oooh, shiny thing
02:36:54 <sbp> <Talliesin> 3. People who think they're getting the new shiny thing, though the hard-core shiny-thing people are bored already.

02:37:45 <Talliesin> 8 assumes that "you" of "your mum" is a geek.
02:37:54 <Talliesin> other mums may take a bit longer.
02:39:37 <Talliesin> * Talliesin wears black almost exclusively, but doesn't have a pony-tail.
02:40:50 <Talliesin> Black goes with everything, or at least with everything black.
02:41:23 <sbp> though white leather may be better
02:41:38 <Talliesin> If I can be constantly lit from below.
02:42:04 <Talliesin> No, I don't think I'll go for white; the one colour harder to keep clean than black.

03:28:49 <Talliesin> Go post on the RDF-IG list
03:29:11 <Talliesin> Say "I agree with Jon, he is entirely correct. It amazes me how anyone could think otherwise" or words to that effect :)
03:31:12 <Talliesin> Or of course you could post disagreeing with me, though I'm to busy to debate it here in realtime.

03:48:24 <sbp> * sbp scrolls up, decides to check out www-rdf-interest
03:49:44 <Talliesin> * Talliesin absent-mindedly drinks water that's been sitting on his desk for at least 3 days.
03:49:48 <Talliesin> *eww*
03:49:49 <sbp> mildly contentious: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-rdf-interest/2004Jun/0180
03:49:53 <sbp> urgh
03:50:18 <sbp> why do you have water that's been sitting on your desk for three days, though? seems like that's just asking for trouble
03:50:27 <Talliesin> Not at all, It amazes me how anyone could think otherwise.
03:50:30 <Talliesin> ;)
03:50:43 <Talliesin> Yes, it is a big debate generally.
03:50:49 <sbp> the contentious part of the email is that if you use a URI as an XML namespace, the resource that that URI denotes is a "Namespace"
03:51:12 <Talliesin> What the hell else is it?
03:51:12 <sbp> at least it wasn't turps or something
03:51:24 <sbp> could be anything, pending range-of-HTTP
03:52:02 <sbp> feasibly anyway. namespaces being just unique names, not in the HTTP context
03:52:22 <Talliesin> I think the pure-REST view that URIs identify any sort or resource whatsoever wins if only by virtue of being "large" enough to "contain" the other views.
03:52:50 <xover> * xover is now known as Ash
03:52:50 <xover> * Ash burninates Namespaces, URIs, and the people who discuss them
03:52:50 <xover> * Ash is now known as xover
03:53:12 <sbp> * sbp changes the channel name to #xml-uri
03:55:56 <Talliesin> The thing is very little has to change to support the pure-REST view.
03:55:56 <Talliesin> Indeed nothing has to change.
03:55:56 <Talliesin> There are things that pure-REST would argue could be done better, but we can deal with what's there already.
03:55:56 <Talliesin> Our name is legion, for we are many.
03:55:56 <Talliesin> (metaphorically, in truth there are too few of us).
03:55:56 <Talliesin> After all, it's not like I say that you have to be able to dereference a namespace URI, just that if you can it should be something half-way sensible given that it is a namespace URI.
03:56:19 <Talliesin> Namespaces are just one case here anyway. The thread started more general.
03:56:53 <Talliesin> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-rdf-interest/2004Jun/0148.html
03:57:07 <xover> puREST
03:57:55 <Talliesin> I like that xover. I intende to steal it.
03:59:19 <xover> Steal away. :-)
03:59:28 <sbp> yes, the puREST case is good common sense
03:59:33 <sbp> in this case at least
04:00:34 <Talliesin> Most of the supposedly gnarly cases given to counter REST aren't really that gnarlly.
04:00:52 <Talliesin> They tend to be something that REST would consider less than ideal, but can still cope with.
04:01:28 <Talliesin> RESTafarians don't expect the entire online population to suddenly be able to recite RFC2616 verbattim within the next year or anything.

04:02:07 <Talliesin> SOAP for instance says "this is the web, and this bit here is the bit using SOAP"
04:02:28 <Talliesin> REST says "this is the web, and this bit here does REST better than the other bit".

04:03:24 <Talliesin> Hence Metcalfe's Law says we win.
04:03:39 <Talliesin> Or as they say on boards.ie "Hence I win"
04:04:25 <Talliesin> Why not believe papers published in Nature?
04:04:47 <sbp> odd, xover found an interesting blog entry
04:04:53 <sbp> can't be many of those about
04:05:28 <Talliesin> Or are Americans trying to get their own back for the way US science is increasingly viewed the way USSR science was under Stalin?
04:05:40 <xover> And xover don't usually read too many blogs either... :-)
04:06:59 <Talliesin> Spooky when the Russian govt. advised scientists not to present papers in the US incase the contents got them arrested.

04:24:43 <Talliesin> This shit just isn't going to be ready on time.
04:24:48 <Talliesin> I'm seriously pissed off.
04:24:51 <Talliesin> I'm going home.
04:25:16 <Talliesin> With luck someone will try to mug me and I can take it out on them without doing anything illegal or immoral.
04:25:32 <sbp> hope the rest of the evening fares better for you
04:25:54 <sbp> ...and that you get mugged, I suppose
04:26:00 <sbp> * sbp is slightly confused at this point
04:26:41 <Talliesin> I only want an attempted mugging.
04:26:56 <sbp> right. attemptedly mugged, sorry
04:27:15 <Talliesin> a successful one would just make me more pissed off.
04:27:19 <sbp> heh. I wonder how many muggings do go the other way? not all that many, I'd suppose--they probably prey on the obviously vulnerable

21:58:22 <kandinski> jcowan, what exactly are you installing on?
21:58:34 <kandinski> sbp, does phenny return codes from characters?
21:58:53 <sbp> not yet, though that's a very good thing to add
21:59:04 <kandinski> I would like to go "¿" at her and have the escaped html sequence, etc, in return
21:59:11 <sbp> yeah

21:59:42 <sbp> this was great:
21:59:42 <sbp> <Monty> Thank goodness, redmonk is back!
21:59:42 <sbp> <phenny> Be quiet, Monty.
21:59:42 <sbp> <Monty> [off] An addition I might talk about it... Looked cool.
21:59:42 <Monty> Can you elaborate on that ?
21:59:45 <Monty> exhibitionism's watery pastry grows candles's salacious pipes.
21:59:47 <Monty> oops -- is smaller :-) Building it twice last one he's on our situation
21:59:51 <sbp> and this:
21:59:52 <sbp> <Morbus> oh, yeah, and sal cleans the floors.
22:00:15 <kandinski> "sal" is "salt" in "Spanish"
22:00:16 <sbp> so that'd be the podecoint function then, kandinski? or the pointcode?
22:00:21 <redmonk> hi ho
22:00:23 <kandinski> podecoint I like
22:00:29 <kandinski> pointcode is good too
22:00:32 <sbp> .gc podecoint
22:00:36 <kandinski> ah
22:00:37 <kandinski> AH
22:00:37 <phenny> no results found.
22:00:44 <kandinski> I met an English girl at Sonar
22:00:45 <sbp> hey there redmonk
22:00:54 <sbp> or redders as I feel compelled to call you
22:01:01 <sbp> kandinski: what's she doing there?
22:01:01 <redmonk> did i mention i got a promotion?.
22:01:04 <kandinski> she was interviewing for a company called Cunning Stunts
22:01:06 <sbp> odd behaviour
22:01:10 <sbp> ooh, well done redmonk!
22:01:14 <kandinski> she was attending Soanr, really
22:01:20 <kandinski> congrats, Redmonk
22:01:24 <redmonk> yeah - tech support to senior designer
22:01:30 <kandinski> w00t!
22:02:38 <redmonk> * redmonk does the happy dance
22:03:04 <sbp> odd 419 variation, presumably: "ALLUVIAL GOLD DUST/BAR FOR SALE"
22:03:43 <kandinski> Monty is writing 419 scam mails now?
22:03:45 <Monty> *finds that comes along?
22:06:09 <pir> *** pir (~piranha@207.216.14.172) has joined #swhack
22:14:30 <pir> so, sbp, what about that diabolical refereeing decision that should have you more downcast than you are?
22:20:08 <sbp> than I appear. I am actually rather pissed about it
22:20:53 <sbp> England 1-1 Portugal, running out of time, goal from Sol Campbell--a perfectly good goal, nothing obviously bad about it, no offisde etc.--and it was disallowed
22:21:18 <pir> *ugh*. that sucks. what was the ostensible reason?
22:21:40 <sbp> took ages before we realised that it'd be disallowed because of John Terry's "push" on the goalkeeper. the push was him having his hand on the goalkeepers shoulder as he jumped up to head the ball. I don't think he even had any pressure on him
22:21:58 <sbp> s/keepers/keeper's/
22:22:21 <sbp> * sbp shrugs
22:22:52 <sbp> carried on being an exciting match and we lost marginally on penalties (around which there was also some controversy as the penalty spot was enmiring itself)
22:25:06 <pir> ah, the hand. yeah, i can sort of see that. it's also harder to judge such things from the field rather than the closeup of the camera.
22:28:36 <sbp> right, and the referee was a long way away. if anything, he should've looked to the linesma--who was closer and had a better view
22:28:44 <sbp> s/ma--/man--/
22:29:17 <pir> true. he didn't? that stinks.
22:30:03 <kandinski> I can't believe this
22:30:30 <kandinski> football nerdity
22:30:40 <kandinski> argh!
22:30:54 <kandinski> * kandinski commits some type of ritual suicide
22:30:58 <kandinski> * kandinski botches it badly
22:31:09 <pir> soccer.
22:31:13 <kandinski> but it is still better than watching the football
22:31:20 <kandinski> fútbol
22:31:27 <pir> football sucks. soccer doesn't. :)
22:34:17 <mattis> *** mattis (~mattis@host235-225.pool8248.interbusiness.it) has joined #swhack
22:37:20 <sbp> kandinski: the tactics and the strategies are very interesting, and for the major tournaments--which only come around every couple of years--it's a chance to see the best players at the game all together producing some marvellous stuff. lots of entertainment too, of course
22:37:58 <sbp> I'd say normally it's a good way to relax, but not after the match we just had...
22:38:13 <pir> i generally like watching people doing their best. i don't actually care who wins in sports. i just like the accomplishments (and the strategy/tactics stuff at times).
22:38:43 <sbp> yep. it's really interesting to see people in any disciplined sport at the highest levels
22:39:52 <kandinski> well, I agree with that generally speaking
22:40:03 <kandinski> that is why I watch the highlights
22:40:15 <kandinski> all the goals, all the passes, etc
22:40:27 <kandinski> in one sitting, 15 minutes, no matter who wins or loses
22:40:30 <sbp> ay, though you miss some of the strategy there
22:40:46 <sbp> good for entertainment though
22:41:02 <kandinski> well, you only got so much time
22:41:17 <pir> and the relaxation in between. :) but that's ok. you don't _do_ relaxation, do you? *grin*.
