01:22:40 <Arnia> * Arnia hands out sugar mice to all and sundry
01:23:15 <jcowan> * jcowan tries to use the sugar mouse, but it melts in his hand instead of moving the cursor properly.

01:26:19 <lonur> * lonur thinks he can use sugar in his green tea, otherwise it's too medicini
01:26:27 <Arnia> * Arnia frowns at segfaults by the dozen
01:27:58 <Arnia> * Arnia throws sugar mice at the problem
01:28:39 <jcowan> It says here you can get sugar mice with a message of your choice written on them in edible ink for #0.95 each.
01:29:18 <jcowan> Indeed you get to specify the message if you don't like their selections.

01:55:14 <chimezie> uche_: I was wondering if perhaps the Versa implementation had an extension hook along the lines of those for XPath/XSLT (I doubt it - those are much older software packages and their corresponding specs spell out the extension mechanism explicitely)

02:34:14 <crschmidt> oop
02:34:17 <crschmidt> that got cut off
02:34:22 <crschmidt> does .help not go through the julie-splitter stuff?
02:39:25 <chimezie> it does, but that last line wasn't cut off before it reached the maximum length for the tell function

02:39:52 <crschmidt> oh
02:40:01 <crschmidt> so the arbitrary 450 limit I picked didn't work, is that what your'e saying?
02:40:36 <chimezie> well, I assumed you picked it because it was a standard minimum of some sort to avoid flood protection (which differs from channel to channel)
02:40:48 <crschmidt> no, it's 512 characters per line
02:40:51 <crschmidt> but it's for the entire IRC line
02:42:38 <chimezie> The julie splitter code splits it into two chunks text[:450] and text[450:900] if it's over 450
02:42:44 <chimezie> at least the version i have
02:42:56 <chimezie> so it cuts of anything over 900 characters
02:42:56 <crschmidt> yep
02:42:59 <crschmidt> oh
02:43:17 <crschmidt> well... that wasn't 900 characters
02:43:43 <crschmidt> it only showed the first line

02:56:49 <phenny> chimezie: 02:55Z <lonur> tell chimezie that it's a cool bot he is building
02:57:34 <lonur> very useful to techies, and can probably be applied to all. then you can sell the bot to chatrooms :)

03:06:26 <lonur> it's even better. if i read correctly what you are doing is teaching programming method. students can sure learn lots from this
03:07:27 <lonur> once ready, I can imagine some comp sci profs want to lease the program for use in his homework assignment
03:09:11 <chimezie> That would be nice. Though to be honest the idea of RDF querying through IRC has been done before (as I found out in retrospect). The biggest return for me is the progress I make
03:10:35 <chimezie> http://dev.w3.org/cvsweb/2000/scribe-bot/ for instance
03:10:44 <crschmidt> yeah, and w4
03:10:47 <crschmidt> er, wh4
03:10:53 <crschmidt> and julie
03:10:57 <chimezie> :)
03:11:05 <crschmidt> but yours is the first versabased... ;)
03:16:50 <chimezie> too bad http://esw.w3.org/topic/SemanticWebDOAPBulletinBoard isn't automated
03:18:00 <chimezie> * chimezie needs to holler at libby
03:20:15 <crschmidt> automated from what?
03:21:14 <dmiles> dmiles (i=dmiles@bdsl.66.14.82.104.gte.net) has joined #swhack
03:21:21 <chimezie> the pending entries validated and added as ADTF entries, with all the validated DOAP graphs available as a single graph
03:22:41 <chimezie> I think that's how the FOAF Bulletin board is managed, if I'm not mistaken
03:23:48 <lonur> sometime the win goes not to the first entrant, but the one who keeps plodding along
03:24:11 <crschmidt> oh, they changed it at some point
03:24:14 <crschmidt> no, it's not
03:24:19 <crschmidt> people just edit it and add themselves
03:25:17 <chimezie> yeah, that's what I just had to do w/ Emeka's DOAP..
03:26:53 <chimezie> .query http://python.codezoo.com/cs/user/run/component/4385?x-r=doap "type(foaf:Person) - foaf:name -> *"
03:26:56 <Emeka> Sorry chimezie, but I wasn't able to parse that RDF source
03:27:28 <crschmidt> man, they totally broke my parser for that page, too
03:27:47 <Arnia> Woah... now that is umm... fun
03:28:02 <Arnia> I just managed to crash the panel with my extension for VFS
03:28:41 <chimezie> shame.. I was hoping some software repository would have a converter to compliant DOAP by now
03:28:59 <chimezie> * chimezie wishes freshmeat or rpmfind.net get on the bandwagon
03:29:38 <chimezie> .g doap export repository
03:29:40 <phenny> doap export repository: http://usefulinc.com/doap
03:33:00 <Arnia> chimezie: Ubuntu are planning to use DOAP for all their repository... so that may make it upstream to Sid
03:33:33 <crschmidt> There's no motivation for either content providers or implementors to touch DOAP
03:33:44 <chimezie> sweet
03:33:50 <crschmidt> at the moment
03:34:40 <chimezie> i would think *any* unified standard software repository format (whether RDF or micoformat) would be valuable
03:35:17 <crschmidt> why?
03:36:41 <chimezie> well they would be able to draw more users mostly because of the ability to cross reference software w/out much effort
03:37:57 <chimezie> not to mention being accessible from more that just the browser
03:39:36 <Arnia> They're looking to use DOAP to allow easier management of distributed development plus the inclusion of a greater variety of information in their packages in an extensible way
03:40:11 <Arnia> They're building a desktop 'software map' which will allow users to easily locate software that matches their needs

14:27:18 <chimezie> eh?
14:27:20 <phenny> chimezie: 14:26Z <uche_> tell chimezie re: what crschmidt said, we have to figure out why chimezie.ogbuji.net is dead
14:27:23 <chimezie> what did you say crschmidt?
14:27:24 <phenny> chimezie: 14:11Z <crschmidt> tell chimezie http://copia.ogbuji.net/ is probably a really bad homepage to use, given that it applies to both he and uche, which means they are the same person.
14:27:41 <chimezie> hehe
14:28:09 <uche_> good old phenny
14:28:11 <chimezie> oh.. well it was never supposed to be my homepage , just a weblog for the both of us. http://chimezie.ogbuji.net was my home page but has been down for agges
14:28:23 <chimezie> so now http://metacognition.info serves that purpose (mostly)
14:28:41 <uche_> chimezie, do you want me to redirect http://chimezie.ogbuji.net to http://metacognition.info ?
14:28:46 <uche_> That should be easy
14:28:57 <chimezie> could you (for now) eventually I'd l ike to put non technical content there
14:28:59 <chimezie> thx :)
14:29:30 <crschmidt> chimezie: also, your email address isn't very accessible
14:29:40 <uche_> OK, but all I see at thet URL is a 4Suite raw container
14:29:41 <chimezie> from metacognition or in general?
14:29:46 <crschmidt> chimezie: you might consider adding it to your FOAF file
14:29:55 <crschmidt> chimezie: well, neither DanC nor I could find it immediately, vis #swig
14:29:56 <chimezie> doh.. that should be http://metacogition.info/index.html
14:30:10 <chimezie> good idea.. thx all i ihave is the sha1 hash
14:30:21 <crschmidt> spelled right
14:30:23 <crschmidt> http://metacognition.info/index.html
14:30:26 <chimezie> while we are on that topic :)
14:30:43 <chimezie> crschmidt could you have the root redidrect to index.html? (until I figure out how to do the redirect in 4suite)?
14:31:12 <crschmidt> maybe...
14:31:14 <crschmidt> * crschmidt goes to look
14:31:24 <chimezie> kay
14:31:34 <crschmidt> I'm pretty sure I just redirect everything to your port, I'm not sure if I have the ability to do redirects before it gets there
14:31:36 <chimezie> * chimezie updates his foaf
14:31:42 <chimezie> hmm..
14:32:20 <chimezie> well i guess I"ll have to rely on the internal 4suite server to do the redirect. I have the same problem w/ Emeka/Fuxis home pages.. /Emeka and /FuXi point to repository containers

14:35:49 <chimezie> thx much
14:35:50 <uche_> toldja it was easy :-)
14:35:53 <crschmidt> chimezie: yeah, I tried to set up the Alias, and it didn't work
14:36:17 <uche_> Do you want me to link to http://chimezie.ogbuji.net or directly to http://metacognition.info from Copia?
14:36:33 <uche_> and BTW, please don't be shy to request such things
14:36:46 <uche_> I completely forgot about metacognition, or I'd have done this ages ago
14:37:01 <chimezie> okay, could you link to http://metacognition.info ?
14:37:14 <uche_> chimezie, redirect in 4suite is easy
14:37:21 <uche_> do you have a server resource?
14:37:25 <chimezie> yes
14:37:43 <uche_> OK. You can either redirect one URL, or use a rule to redirect by pattern
14:37:57 <chimezie> yeah im reading (http://lists.fourthought.com/pipermail/4suite-dev/2002-June/000209.html) now
14:38:01 <chimezie> very effective

14:50:50 <uche_> "current item in context"
14:50:51 <BeHappy_> this redland-python is driving me crazy
14:51:02 <chimezie> that's probably the most complex of all the functions

14:51:31 <uche_> chimezie, yeah, and I think we can almost eliminate distribute in 2.0
14:51:54 <crschmidt> BeHappy_: hm. do you know where the code is happening? Sounds like something you wouldn't normally see
14:52:07 <BeHappy_> that's the exception i get when the interpreter exits
14:52:18 <BeHappy_> and the model is not saved
14:52:22 <crschmidt> BeHappy_: are you, at any time, deleting from a model while iterating over the same model?

14:52:40 <BeHappy_> no
14:52:43 <crschmidt> hm.
14:52:55 <crschmidt> can you reduce it to a small use case? I know I've seen the error before
14:53:06 <shapr> Can you run it in pdb and get a call stack?
14:53:10 <BeHappy_> he... sincerely not
14:53:15 <BeHappy_> that's a twisted application
14:53:27 <BeHappy_> and it gets called by twistd
14:53:31 <shapr> Oh
14:53:32 <BeHappy_> i dont know how to debug it
14:53:37 <crschmidt> BeHappy_: first of all, WHY DEAR GOD WHY, second of all, well, can you reduce the Redland aspect?
14:53:44 <crschmidt> Alternatively, drop me the code and I can take a look at it?
14:53:51 <BeHappy_> crschmidt, ofcourse
14:53:56 <BeHappy_> wait a bit
14:53:59 <shapr> You could write unit tests...

14:58:39 <crschmidt> hm. BeHappy_: is there any wya to pull the Zope stuff out, or is it deeply tied to that?
14:59:06 <shapr> Zope /= Twisted
14:59:11 <uche_> chimezie, sorry, I stole your thunder :-
14:59:14 <uche_> :-)
14:59:15 <BeHappy_> shapr, but twisted uses zope interfaces
14:59:27 <BeHappy_> crschmidt, i think i can pass it via instance variables
14:59:37 <uche_> chris and jessica mentioned Allen hall a while back and I told them that was your spot as well
15:00:09 <uche_> small, small world
15:00:34 <crschmidt> BeHappy_: I'm grabbing zope, hold on, i'll see if that ccan get me up and running
15:00:36 <shapr> BeHappy_: Oh, I didn't know that.
15:01:16 <BeHappy_> crschmidt, ockay, if you need other files (there are the .xml templates) i can put up a targz
15:01:43 <BeHappy_> shapr, yep, they've ported their implementation to use zope's one
15:01:46 <crschmidt> hm, apt-get install zope didn't install zope modules on Pythonpast
15:01:49 <crschmidt> path*
15:01:57 <BeHappy_> crschmidt, wait, it's not zope
15:02:01 <BeHappy_> its zope interface
15:02:15 <shapr> I've been off in the functional world for so long...
15:02:19 <crschmidt> ah
15:02:31 <BeHappy_> ii python2.3-zopeinterface   3.0.1-1           Python library for API definitions through interfaces
15:02:33 <shapr> I prefer Haskell over Python. I also think that each person should choose for themselves :-)
15:02:54 <BeHappy_> seems like half python world is doing programming by interfaces
15:02:54 <shapr> Python was my favorite fram Python 1.4 to Python 2.1 or so.
15:03:00 <shapr> fram och till
15:03:08 <shapr> Jag talar svenska...
15:03:08 <shapr> sheez
15:03:40 <crschmidt> BeHappy_: pointer for nevow?
15:03:45 <shapr> This is not a Swedish channel, and I'm not Swedish!
15:04:06 <BeHappy_> debian package python-nevow

15:07:20 <crschmidt> BeHappy_: eh. I'm not getting very far in this: can you try and run over what it's trying to do so far as redland goes?
15:07:49 <BeHappy_> crschmidt, i'm trying to not using the zope interfaces in the class FuffaRDF:
15:08:07 <BeHappy_> and passing it via instance methods
15:08:20 <BeHappy_> if this not work i'll try to write another program that uses that class
15:09:04 <crschmidt> BeHappy_: I wouldn't really typically worry about the exception unless it's causing problems
15:09:41 <crschmidt> thus the "ignored" at the end
15:10:01 <BeHappy_> neiter do i, but now the model is not saved
15:10:24 <BeHappy_> in the database
15:10:35 <crschmidt> hrm.
15:11:14 <crschmidt> well, i've got to get back to work for right now, but I may poke at it more - I'll let you know if I get anywhere, and you can let me know if you get something that's a bit more minimal
15:11:24 <BeHappy_> yep

15:40:07 <xover> Bah! What's your "ambivalence operator" then supybot?
15:41:45 <xover> Quite impressive really, the show had a fan site with "save the show info" before the first season even finished airing, without any treaths from the studio or pleas from crew/cast members.
15:42:31 <xover> I guess it wouldn't be a true fan site if they couldn't sit around worrying it'd get taken off and campaigning to keep it running.
15:43:27 <xover> I swear, sometimes I think the studios shut down shows just to give fans something to whine about.

18:43:14 <sbp> I'll have to give him a rough estimate
18:43:15 <crschmidt> that's a pretty good rate
18:43:21 <sbp> * sbp nods
18:43:35 <sbp> his portfolio is excellent too. I use him for a lot of stuff
18:43:52 <crschmidt> previous employer charged $80-$90/hour for web design work
18:44:07 <parsec> hmm
18:44:10 <parsec> 55 an hour for gfx
18:44:12 <parsec> is too much
18:44:23 <parsec> is that actually the going rate?
18:44:23 <sbp> you won't find any better. this is like friend-deal level
18:44:38 <parsec> lets see his portfolio
18:44:51 <sbp> I'll get him to give it to you when he comes online
18:45:02 <parsec> k
18:46:21 <shapr> 55 an hour is cheap.
18:46:32 <thelsdj> yea, and someone good can do a lot in an hour
18:46:54 <shapr> Yeah, I have a friend who's a graphic designer, she's really really good.
18:46:56 <thelsdj> they won't charge you if they arn't actually accomplishing a lot
18:47:15 <parsec> i charge $300/hr for network installations
18:47:22 <parsec> that's cheap
18:47:35 <crschmidt> So what are you worried about? you work one hour, you can pay d8uv for 6
18:47:42 <thelsdj> i get paid crap :(
18:48:11 <parsec> hahaha
18:48:12 <shapr> I work for 500 euro a day, I'm dirt cheap too.
18:48:22 <parsec> 500 euros a day is dirty cheap?

18:48:26 <parsec> i dont make 300 hour
18:48:27 <parsec> usually

19:07:14 <retard-crackhead> no
19:07:15 <retard-crackhead> it doesnt
19:07:18 <thelsdj> yes it does
19:07:18 <thelsdj> lol
19:07:22 <retard-crackhead> it stores it under $USER/.thunderbird
19:07:27 <thelsdj> so?
19:07:31 <retard-crackhead> then
19:07:31 <sbp> no, the FORMAT is the same
19:07:32 <retard-crackhead> it creates
19:07:34 <retard-crackhead> ohhhh

19:07:47 <retard-crackhead> none the less
19:07:50 <retard-crackhead> thunderbird is garbage.

19:08:43 <jcowan> This is not a public forum.
19:09:05 <retard-crackhead> ya, ya. I get the idea ok?
19:09:27 <Arnia> This is one of two places I'm in with a current conversation about how X is better than Y and Y is awful because Z says so
19:09:34 <Arnia> * Arnia is getting tired of this
19:09:40 <retard-crackhead> arnia, relax its only irc
19:09:43 <retard-crackhead> arnia, and its over.
19:11:08 <edsu> sorry about that, had a bit of a flutter over in another room
19:12:08 <sbp> too late, you're sploded
19:13:04 <sbp> (also: ehyup, lad)
19:13:12 <edsu> * edsu picks up the remaining brain cells and tries to reassemble them
19:17:37 <jcowan> * jcowan heaves a big sigh and considers going to bed for about a week.
19:17:52 <sbp> feeling ill, jcowan?
19:18:07 <jcowan> Naah, just sick of ircdiocy.
19:18:26 <sbp> THROUGH THE NOSE
19:18:33 <jcowan> TO THE MOON!
19:18:44 <sbp> AND MR. SPOCK WILL MEET US SOON
19:18:59 <crschmidt> * crschmidt attempts to offer a piece of non-idiocy on IRC, to soothe jcowan's humble soul... and fails.
19:19:21 <jcowan> There's good idiocy and bad idiocy, crschmidt.
19:19:31 <crschmidt> Oh, I know.
19:19:52 <crschmidt> And I'm well aware of which kind I offer, as well. *heavy sigh*
19:19:53 <crschmidt> ;)
19:20:06 <crschmidt> How goes it?
19:20:18 <jcowan> * jcowan got maxed out on: "So, you're a pacifist? Well, what if BadGuy is gonna like blow up the *whole planet* and you can only stop him by killing him? What then, fucktard?"
19:20:21 <jcowan> this morning.
19:20:32 <retard-crackhead> hmm
19:20:38 <retard-crackhead> that is idiocy.
19:20:54 <sbp> someone called you a fucktard?
19:20:57 <retard-crackhead> thats like asking your parents, if me and my sister were hanging off a cliff, whom would you choose.
19:21:33 <jcowan> sbp: no, it was a paraphrase. But words like "traitor" were bandied about. Funny, how often so-called libertarians ("The State Is EEEEVIL!!") talk about treason nowadays.
19:21:52 <sbp> traitor to the idea

19:26:58 <retard-crackhead> i wanna get my RHCE
19:27:05 <retard-crackhead> anyone know of good reference materials?
19:27:35 <sbp> "What does Red Hat recommend to prepare for the RHCE Exam?"
19:27:40 <sbp> - https://www.redhat.com/training/rhce/rhce_faq.html#preparation
19:28:50 <jcowan> Arrgh, crschmidt, now the tune-in-my-head has switched to the one you mentioned.
19:28:56 <sbp> heh, heh
19:29:05 <retard-crackhead> probably lots.
19:29:08 <retard-crackhead> i hear its pretty tough
19:29:09 <retard-crackhead> the actual exam'
19:29:30 <jcowan> sbp: I'd be interested in your views on the particulars mentioned in http://www.wsu.edu/~brians/errors/nonerrors.html
19:29:33 <sbp> "use the RHCE and RHCT Exam Prep Guide, to guide your studies and practice, not third-party materials or other second-hand information"
19:29:38 <sbp> looking

19:30:02 <retard-crackhead> you never spork anymore
19:30:03 <Morbus> i chuckle at the redhat ce thing.
19:30:06 <retard-crackhead> heh
19:30:08 <retard-crackhead> you dont like redhat?
19:30:12 <crschmidt> jcowan: apologies.
19:30:30 <Morbus> for all the love of "more than one way to do it" and "tiny programs combine evilly", how anyone would be able to grade an aptitude test, where personality determines the answer, is beyond me.
19:30:37 <jcowan> crschmidt: well, it could be worse, it could be the ... ARRGH! No! Now it is!
19:31:15 <retard-crackhead> heh
19:31:26 <retard-crackhead> Morbus: redhat is easy, if you know what tools redhat uses
19:31:38 <retard-crackhead> Morbus: but the test is a little ridiculous, asking questions that could be answered in any number of ways.
19:31:39 <Morbus> i don't use wizards or tools.
19:31:41 <Morbus> i configure manually.
19:31:48 <Morbus> * Morbus uses fc4 at work.
19:31:49 <retard-crackhead> heh
19:31:52 <retard-crackhead> really
19:31:56 <retard-crackhead> you like fedora core?
19:32:11 <Morbus> there's nothing not to like about it. everything it can do i can do on any other distro.
19:32:12 <Emeka> Emeka has quit (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer))
19:32:14 <Morbus> * Morbus has no distro love.
19:32:35 <retard-crackhead> good point
19:33:32 <Emeka> Emeka (n=Emeka@athena.crschmidt.net) has joined #swhack
19:34:23 <retard-crackhead> jcowan; a plus on the link
19:36:19 <retard-crackhead> Morbus: what about lpi.org?
19:36:40 <Morbus> never heard of it.
19:36:46 <Morbus> woudln't much care, either way.
19:37:56 <sbp> jcowan: it all seems fine apart from the following observations:
19:38:24 <sbp> who/that I think is good style to keep where you can. I don't agree that the "that" example given is much better than if "who" were sued
19:38:26 <sbp> used
19:38:38 <sbp> scan/skim seems a bit weak to me, but I can go with it
19:38:56 <sbp> I use skim, nontheless, though. I think it should be preferred, because it's clearer
19:39:17 <sbp> gotten I believe we have in the UK, unless it's just me getting it from US TV
19:39:25 <sbp> .gc gotten site:.co.uk
19:39:27 <phenny> gotten site:.co.uk: 252,000
19:39:33 <sbp> that's compelling evidence
19:39:43 <jcowan> Tradiitionally at least gotten was avoided in the U.K. except in ill-gotten, but I wouldn't be surprised if that was no longer so.
19:39:52 <jcowan> gc gotten -ill site:.co.uk
19:39:53 <sbp> preventive/preventative seems very weak to me. preventive medicine? you have to be kidding
19:40:01 <sbp> .gc gotten -ill site:.co.uk
19:40:04 <phenny> gotten -ill site:.co.uk: 202,000
19:40:13 <sbp> I really don't it's still so
19:40:17 <sbp> doubt, even
19:40:26 <jcowan> Traditionally this was one of the Americanisms that British authors got wrong: "He hasn't gotten any sense" (!)
19:40:27 <sbp> .gc gotten site:news.bbc.co.uk
19:40:30 <phenny> gotten site:news.bbc.co.uk: 4,220
19:42:01 <jcowan> sbp: even fanatics about which/that usually don't analogize it to who/that; plenty of people avoid "that" modifying a noun referring to a human being.
19:42:45 <sbp> it seems like it's actually edited out for the most part on news.bbc.co.uk (gotten)
19:43:00 <sbp> though I've found, for example, 'She added: "This law means they have gotten away with it."' - http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/wales/2254554.stm
19:43:07 <sbp> most of the rest are Americans speaking

19:43:52 <sbp> he's about as British as they come
19:45:04 <sbp> aha, first in-article use I can find: " Some of the vodka may be missing from the bottles, which stand guard around the bed, and the sheets may be even dirtier, but Emin's work has gotten off lighter than many." - http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/special_report/1999/02/99/e-cyclopedia/484942.stm
19:45:58 <sbp> $ grep -i 'sbp.*gotten' swhack.log | wc -l
19:45:58 <sbp> 70
19:46:06 <jcowan> All these however have attached prepositions. I wonder how many "Have you gotten the cheese?" (which minimally contrasts with "Have you got the cheese?") type sentences there are.
19:46:13 <sbp> $ grep -i 'JibberJim.*gotten' swhack.log | wc -l

19:49:48 <jcowan> OBTW, google now does stemming, so searches on gotten vs. got may not be reliable.
19:49:57 <sbp> ah, bugger
19:50:12 <sbp> I wondered why some of the results didn't seem to have "gotten" in them

19:51:07 <sbp> no way to turn it off, apparently
19:51:15 <sbp> and yeah
19:51:27 <sbp> wonder why it just selects a few, then?
19:51:33 <sbp> link terms?
19:51:48 <sbp> * sbp tries the cache
19:51:51 <jcowan> I have no clue. The ways of Google are mysterious indeed.
19:51:57 <sbp> yeah
19:51:59 <sbp> "These terms only appear in links pointing to this page: gotten"

19:52:09 <jcowan> The stemming algorithm may not handle irregular verbs, though.
19:55:30 <jcowan> "It's impossible for me to say gangsta rap without sounding like a dork: that's one of the reasons the phrase exists, to mark people like me as outsiders." --Jack Lynch's guide to grammar and style
19:55:42 <sbp> hehe
19:55:48 <sbp> Lynch's guide is awesome
19:56:22 <jcowan> Of course he comes from the southern counties, and so is not to be trusted.
19:56:40 <sbp> heh
19:57:05 <sbp> perhaps he just works there, but lives in the north?
19:57:39 <jcowan> Nope, says plain as plain that he comes from Southern New Jersey.
19:58:02 <sbp> * sbp looks up where Rutgers is
19:58:05 <jcowan> Whereas I was born and raised (not reared, please) in Northern New Jersey, and so my judgments on language are INFALLIBLE.
19:58:21 <jcowan> It's the state university, and so has several campuses in various parts of the state.
19:58:28 <sbp> Public Ivy? heh
19:58:36 <jcowan> Indeed, although it is actually older than the state.
19:58:43 <sbp> reared does tend to make one sound like cattle
19:58:48 <sbp> wow
19:59:02 <jcowan> I understand that people who produce chickens for market call themselves "chicken growers".
19:59:35 <sbp> growers? oh man
19:59:57 <jcowan> Bury the eggs in the ground, add water and fertilizer, ....

20:00:42 <sbp> There Is No Interdental Fricative
20:00:56 <jcowan> Better for you to wonder whether to write theft or feft than for me to wonder if you mean lord or laud.
20:01:11 <sbp> fepht
20:01:28 <sbp> ffephed
20:01:36 <jcowan> which is why Regularized Inglish makes lots and lots of distinctions.
20:01:47 <Arnia> sbp: Can you hear the difference between ph and th (unvoiced)?
20:02:03 <sbp> I can hear it, but I don't make it myself
20:02:22 <Arnia> ah... one of my housemates can't actually hear it
20:02:30 <Arnia> He thinks they're identical sounds
20:02:32 <jcowan> * jcowan wonders if some Welsh people who learn Welsh as adults pronounce th as ff/ph also.
20:02:33 <sbp> it feels as though the difference between them is smaller than the barrier between making the interdental and the non-interdental
20:02:47 <sbp> th is a distinctly different sound from ff/ph in Welsh
20:02:57 <jcowan> And in most kinds of English too.
20:02:57 <sbp> oh, as adults
20:03:14 <sbp> I would have difficulty
20:03:41 <sbp> fy ngath i seems to come out okay though
20:04:00 <sbp> I think you start to overenunciate when you learn the orthography, so it kinda sticks
20:05:41 <jcowan> * jcowan has a lot of trouble remembering Welsh u, most especially in au.
20:06:41 <jcowan> And Occitan orthography is maximally perverse: final -a = /o/, o = /u/, u = /y/.
20:06:47 <sbp> yeah, u is hard
20:06:52 <sbp> eek
20:07:00 <jcowan> Only the last agrees with French, which helps.
20:07:18 <jcowan> "troubadour" is a French borrowing from Oc, where it is spelled "trobador".
20:08:10 <sbp> hmm. isn't the first ou an oo and the second a short o (or)?
20:09:48 <jcowan> Not sure. It may have changed in French after being borrowed.
20:10:00 <sbp> like connoiseur here
20:10:12 <sbp> wait, bad analogy
20:10:21 <sbp> it changed *there* after we loaned it *here*
20:10:32 <jcowan> Likewise "double entendre"
20:10:38 <sbp> and RSVP
20:10:43 <sbp> nom de plume
20:10:59 <jcowan> But how to account for vicar:curate::curé:vicaire I do not know.
20:11:12 <sbp> hmm!
20:11:37 <jcowan> I don't know the RSVP story.
20:11:42 <sbp> under curate:
20:11:42 <sbp>   One who has the cure of souls; originally, any clergyman, but
20:11:43 <sbp>   now usually limited to one who assists a rector or vicar.
20:12:05 <jcowan> vicarius = assistant in Latin, so that accounts for the French usage.
20:12:15 <sbp> so they just got desynonymised differently
20:12:26 <chimezie> * chimezie is incredibly frustrated with an oversight with the XForms specification regarding base64 encoding
20:12:29 <chimezie> grrr...
20:12:44 <sbp> Coleridge was right!
20:13:05 <jcowan> About what?
20:13:36 <jcowan> Says here that originally "vicar" was either someone who got a stipend but not tithes or the personal representative of a prelate.
20:14:02 <chimezie> as I understand the Xforms specification, an XForms processor seems to have to know how to handle base64 encoding/decoding
20:14:17 <jcowan> Looks that way to me too, chimezie.
20:14:33 <chimezie> since the file upload control requires content picked from the filesystem must be encoded before being bound to a node
20:15:08 <sbp> I read one of Coleridge's essays wherein he spoke about desynonymisation. then I read about desynonymisation and found it being slandered as a mere "18th century theory" now debunked
20:15:17 <chimezie> however, that capability is unavailable as a general capability. Lets say I wanted to base 64 encode the value of a node in an instance on the fly w/out having to bind it to an upload control
20:15:20 <sbp> which seemed odd, because some words clearly get desynonymised
20:15:59 <jcowan> ale vs. beer
20:16:03 <chimezie> the specification requires base64 encoding capabilities but doesn't expose it as a function in any way
20:16:14 <jcowan> Though furze and gorse remain with us to confound all rationalists.
20:16:22 <chimezie> so the only way you can base64 encode explicitely is to bind a file control to a node
20:18:11 <clsn> I've heard that; the only two synonyms in English...
20:18:30 <chimezie> oh well.. at least I have some material for a blog rant
20:19:32 <jcowan> clsn: There are at least 10 synonyms for Kreutzfeld-Jakob disease, of which Creutzfeld-Jakob disease and Jakob-Kreutzfeld disease immediately come to mind....
20:19:35 <chimezie> but no one is doing any serious ui construction with XForms yet so the spec and the conforming tools lag behind the bleeding edge (where I reside, unfortunately)
20:20:33 <clsn> I know, I know, and there are plenty of other synonyms, but gorse and furze were given by someone Big and Famous (you remember who, I sure don't) as the only true synonyms, by which he meant to say that most synonyms really do differ in some sense.
20:22:54 <Arnia> Arnia has left #swhack
20:23:32 <jcowan> Can't think of any such proclamation.
20:24:08 <clsn> *blink*. Then wherenhell did you get the idea to mention them at all? I thought that was what you meant.
20:32:32 <jcowan> Well, they are just an example of exact synonymy that I know about; that's quite different from having heard/read a VIP proclaim them as the only exact synonyms.
20:35:15 <clsn> Oh... Maybe I'm misremembering the story, or maybe you never heard it, or both... I suppose Google would know.

21:05:36 <Morbus> The funniest thing, though, is that RSS 3 apparently exists, here. I canvassed the web quite thoroughly, or so I thought, before starting this. I didn’t find a thing. Well, luckily enough, that dialect of RSS has been around for 3 years and still no takers. And that’s because it’s an entirely new format, text based rather than XML based. (I wonder if I’ll find this funny if the author demands that I change the name of this site…)

21:38:47 <Arnia> Mmm... gaseous venison
21:38:50 <jcowan> jessica: good point.

21:39:12 <jessica> I was an avowed libertarian for many years.
21:39:24 <uche> how bout lapdance libs?
21:39:41 <jessica> I now realize that I should just start an anarchosyndicalist commune and start military training for the 8 year old and 4 year old.
21:40:03 <jcowan> * jcowan is a notorious geolibertarian, which means that everyone hates him. *snif*
21:40:38 <clsn> Ooof, libertarians... I guess that means we have to talk quietly around them and stuff, and make sure to return the books on time...
21:40:45 <jessica> I found that to maintain all the standards of Libertarianism, you either end up an old-school Republican or like The Onion parody "Starting next year, Nevada will repeal all laws, with the laws against murder, assault, and rape being repealed in 2007 . . ."
21:41:23 <jcowan> geolibs believe that "royal" libs, Greens, and socialists have all got it just subtly wrong.
21:41:34 <jessica> Royal libs?
21:42:12 <jcowan> Those who believe in absolute property rights in land (which usually wind up being derived from some monarch or another).
21:42:45 <Arnia> How do you have rights without laws? Just curious to know, don't know much about libertarianism
21:43:02 <jessica> Ah. I'm just of the "to hell with governmental regulation in anything except for preserving life or property."
21:43:11 <uche> Arnia, tonz o' gunz
21:43:18 <jcowan> Quite so, jessica, but what is property and what is not?
21:43:44 <jessica> * jessica shrugs. Now we get into abstract concepts, but based on my understanding of IP, everything is now becoming property.
21:43:46 <uche> jcowan throws the bomb
21:43:52 <uche> and rightly so
21:43:56 <jcowan> Libertarians come in two flavors, Arnia: those who believe in night-watchman states, and those who think social control can be achieved by free market defense agencies.
21:43:59 <jessica> And therefore I can sue everyone and everything for use of the word "the" after I used it. :P

22:31:51 <Arnia> Yes... one of the many reasons I have so many papers on the computer

22:33:32 <jcowan> I was quite interested this morning in a survey by Goetz Graefe on algorithms for database queries, but now it just all seems long and boring.
22:34:19 <Arnia> That sounds quite interesting... but I guess it depends on how it is written
22:34:44 <jcowan> I'll keep it and tackle it again later; my dislike of it may be nothing more than indigestion (literal or meta4ical)
22:35:12 <Arnia> Did you just use a number for a syllable?
22:35:17 <jcowan> Yes.
22:35:27 <Arnia> * Arnia stares
22:35:40 <jcowan> "A man's reach should exceed his grasp, or what's a meta for?" --Hen3ry (where the number is *not* for a syllable)
22:38:44 <chimezie> uche: isn't GRDDL yet another fancy buzzword for what we've had in 4Suite for eons? (Document Definitions)?
22:39:05 <jcowan> Arnia: not using Gnome these days, or I probably would.
22:39:12 <bear_> bear_ is now known as bear
22:40:19 <chimezie> phenny: ask uche if he doesn't think 'Document Definition' when he sees GRDDL
22:40:21 <phenny> chimezie: I'll pass that on when uche is around.
22:40:27 <Arnia> Thought of an interesting example of a non-shit acronym name for a project btw
22:40:34 <Arnia> Nab - Non Axiomatic Beagle

22:42:33 <Arnia> I may spend some time writing a C library for NAL
22:42:47 <Arnia> (well, and NARS in general)
22:44:00 <Arnia> Hmm 5 GB through the backup and I still haven't got through my AI papers
22:44:54 <jcowan> Anyhow, Ittywhonk to you all.
22:45:02 <Arnia> bye

23:50:24 <sbp> haven't seen him around for ages
23:50:45 <eaon> Yeah, he's on Plazes from time to time
23:50:57 <eaon> He always seemed enthusiastic
23:51:07 <sbp> no show here since 2005-06-20
23:51:23 <crschmidt> hm, did he poke me earlier today?
23:51:29 <sbp> but he'd disappeared for three months before then too
23:51:55 <crschmidt> ah, no, that was captsolo
23:52:03 <crschmidt> yeah, clockwerx has always kind of drifted in and out
