02:01:24 <sbp> remember last night d8uv found the stupid picture on Wikipedia:Slash_fiction and added it to Wikipedia:Slash? http://swhack.com/logs/2006-01-15#T04-32-03 if you don't
02:02:03 <sbp> so tonight he went into #wikipedia-en-vandalism and confessed his vandalism
02:02:26 <sbp> and everybody starts berating him for being a jerk and a vandal...
02:02:41 <sbp> ...and then they go, wait a moment, your change was actually quite useful
02:02:59 <sbp> and in the history for the page, someone reverted his change and then actually put the change back
02:03:42 <sbp> so now even the Wikipedia vandalism faction have decided that adding the slashfictionslash image to the slash page and putting "This is a slash." below it was actually enhancing the value of Wikipedia (I don't disagree, but that's pretty hilarious)
02:03:54 <sbp> [01:53] <sbp> I can't believe it's going to be left there. that's so funny
02:03:54 <sbp> [01:53] <sbp> you must be the only vandal ever to be praised for your contribution to Wikipedia
02:04:30 <kpreid> sbp: if you weren't telling the truth, this would be slash fiction slash fiction
02:04:58 <d8uv> kpreid: That's pretty gross
02:05:01 <sbp> well, I could tack on that then d8uv starting kissing the vandalism team
02:05:06 <sbp> which would make it so
02:05:13 <sbp> and eek. meta-slash-fiction
02:05:33 <kpreid> sbp: no, no
02:05:40 <kpreid> slash-fiction-slash fiction
02:06:06 <kpreid> or, to reproduce exactly what you said, slashfictionslash fiction. that is, fiction about the "/"
02:06:14 <kpreid> oh, never mind
02:06:37 <d8uv> Aw I can't stay mad at you kpried. C'mere. *goes to hug kpried, then sticks his finger into kpried's anus*
02:06:49 <sbp> completely paralysing him
02:06:57 <sbp> argh, now I have to explain that. hang on
02:07:42 <sbp> http://www.villagevoice.com/people/0531,savage,66457,24.html
02:07:54 <sbp> the last question on the page
02:08:53 <sbp> [[[
02:08:54 <sbp> Mr. 200 Percent Straight couldn't stop the big, bad masseur from giving him a blowjob because the masseur had his thumb up Mr. 200 Percent Straight's butt. What, is there a system override switch in straight men's butts? Can't . . . move. . . . Thumb . . . in . . . ass. . . . Send . . . help!
02:08:54 <sbp> Come on. I've had my thumb in a few butts, provoking reactions ranging from delight to disgust, but it has never, ever, not once, paralyzed a sex partner or struck him dumb.
02:08:54 <sbp> ]]]
02:09:18 <sbp> and I see. more like slash fiction slash slash?
02:09:31 <sbp> viz slash about the slash of slash fiction
02:09:39 <d8uv> I'll go slash slash slash fiction
02:09:47 <sbp> slash slash?
02:09:56 <sbp> a slash slash is an old dash
02:10:02 <sbp> as we found out yesterday
02:10:13 <sbp> so you mean dash slash fiction, or slash dash fiction?
02:10:21 <d8uv> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interrobang <- Constructively vandalized
02:10:49 <sbp> fixed already
02:11:17 <sbp> now you can't even vandalise wrongly wrongly
02:11:55 <sbp> so your aim should be to vandalise a slash fiction slash like page wrongly wrongly wrongly
02:13:01 <d8uv> Sweet. I just got a message. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:216.67.22.232
02:13:33 <sbp> funny
02:19:19 <d8uv> SO HOW ARE YOU ALL
02:20:13 <sbp> WHAT
02:20:19 <sbp> we're okay, thanks
02:20:26 <sbp> well, I'm not sure about matthewd
02:20:41 <d8uv> * d8uv kills matthewd
02:20:46 <sbp> we're okay, thanks
02:20:50 <d8uv> I'm not sure about him either
02:21:53 <sbp> how strange. I always thought that the bunyip was a cute, cuddly landgoing possum/platypus hybrid-like thing
02:22:06 <sbp> but Wikipedia says they're evil things with blood-curdling cries
02:23:54 <sbp> ooh, it might be a folk memory of the Diprotodont

02:29:01 <sbp> go go gadget power shot!
02:29:21 <d8uv> Go eat some coals, smoky!
02:29:32 <sbp> pardon?
02:29:40 <sbp> say, do you have bunyips up in your wilds, d8uv?
02:29:50 <sbp> or equivalent mythological beasts
02:30:50 <d8uv> I do have a couple gryffins.
02:30:57 <d8uv> But they are really small
02:31:04 <d8uv> Like pocket gryffins.
02:31:07 <d8uv> So cute
02:33:40 <d8uv> * d8uv explodes
02:36:19 <sbp> good enough. you should make some facts about them
02:37:37 <d8uv> Hmm I was thinking of that
02:37:55 <d8uv> You know those page-a-day calendars?
02:38:07 <d8uv> The ones that always suck?
02:40:33 <sbp> yep
02:41:03 <d8uv> I was gonna make "The Calendar of Dumb"
02:41:15 <d8uv> And try self-publishing it
02:41:21 <d8uv> and selling it on the internet
02:41:26 <sbp> oh right, I remember you mentioning that in the #d8uv.com backscroll

11:52:17 <crschmidt> xover: No, as far as I know it's never been officially released by Nokia. Also, I hate Perl.
11:52:19 <phenny> crschmidt: 10:52Z <xover> ask crschmidt You ever looked at Perl on Symbian?
11:59:04 <jessica> phenny, tell xover that crschmidt used to love Perl, but Perl ran off and broke his heart, so now he hates Perl and does only Python. It's very sad.
11:59:07 <phenny> jessica: I'll pass that on when xover is around.
12:01:33 <xover> heh heh
12:01:36 <phenny> xover: 11:59Z <jessica> tell xover that crschmidt used to love Perl, but Perl ran off and broke his heart, so now he hates Perl and does only Python. It's very sad.
12:01:56 <crschmidt> I don't *never* do perl. I do OpenGuides stuff, which is Perl.
12:02:15 <jessica> . . .
12:02:25 <crschmidt> But I highly prefer Python over anything, PHP over Perl, and use Perl only when some suitably large project is not written in one of those first two.
12:02:27 <jessica> I'd make fun of your grammar but I think it's just lousy syntax.
12:03:09 <xover> Jarkko seems to be aiming for the next maint rev of Perl proper to be what gets pushed as their Perl SDK, modula proper Symbian-specific interfaces.
12:03:31 <xover> Out of curiosity, what turned you off Perl?
12:05:05 <crschmidt> Primarily the fact that my first project with Perl turned out to be such a hellhole of wasted effort.
12:05:10 <crschmidt> (LiveJournal)
12:05:16 <Jibbler> heh
12:05:28 <xover> That Perl's "fault" or the project?
12:05:33 <crschmidt> The project.
12:05:35 <crschmidt> Entirely.
12:05:38 <xover> right
12:05:44 <crschmidt> I don't have any specific complaints about the language itself.
12:06:00 <Jibbler> perl belongs in small standalone scripts, imho. making entire applications out of it is bonkers
12:06:04 <crschmidt> I do find it harder to get things done in, and less intuitive, than PHP, for example.
12:06:14 <xover> * xover boggles…
12:06:28 <crschmidt> Primarily because of PHP's documentation, I think.
12:06:54 <xover> As an aside, only slightly apropos, I'm still waiting for the day someone shows me actual readable, well-structured, and grokkable Python.
12:06:55 <Jibbler> perl's documentation isn't exactly great either
12:06:58 <Jibbler> java, however, rocks :)
12:07:05 <crschmidt> PHP is a crappy language as far as elegance goes --
12:07:21 <crschmidt> but it's a well-documented, low-startup-cost language, at least from my POV.
12:07:33 <xover> * xover looks menacingly at Jibbler…
12:08:44 <crschmidt> for the record, I refuse to even touch anything that runs in Java.
12:08:50 <xover> heh heh
12:08:57 <Jibbler> oh, you don't use ebay then? :)
12:09:01 <crschmidt> Nope.
12:09:10 <Jibbler> a world i cannot imagine!
12:09:11 <crschmidt> But that wasn't my point, as you well know. :p
12:09:29 <crschmidt> I used ebay once, 3 years ago.
12:09:43 <crschmidt> But anyway, I meant as far as code goes.
12:10:00 <crschmidt> I run Jibbler's reminderbot, and I feel dirty every time I have to start it up.
12:10:30 <crschmidt> I once hacked FOAF support into piespy, and it makes me cry to this day...
12:10:41 <crschmidt> becasue it's the only reason I can't say "I've never written a single line of Java code" honestly.
12:10:45 <Jibbler> well, that's FOAF for you :)
12:11:00 <Jibbler> i am sorry if i have caused you pain :)
12:12:37 <BeHappy_> crschmidt, i'm forced to java by university... at least for one class my teacher permits me to use python.. and he even dont know it!
12:13:21 <BeHappy_> and the funniest thing is, half teachers of classes i've attended to, say that java is crap

13:43:21 <bjoern_> In a RELAX NG schema I want to say the following: If attribute a has value x, attribute b must have value y; if attribute does not have value x, attribute b can be anything (say, any Nmtoken). Is there an easy way to do this?
13:44:47 <bjoern_> There are actually a lot of a => b constraints, the only way I can think of would be a choice where the values for attribute a are listed in <except>
13:45:12 <bjoern_> (or doing this in the leaves as choice)
13:45:51 <bjoern_> What I'd like to have is a feature where I can say "If you go into this branch of the choice, don't look at the other choices"
13:46:03 <bjoern_> As I understand it, <notAllowed/> doesn't have this effect

16:56:09 <sbp> phenny: tell wmf http://it.slashdot.org/it/06/01/16/0615247.shtml
16:56:11 <bjoern_> phenny, tell wellatleastshechecksfortoolongnicknamesifiremembercorrectly nothing...
16:56:11 <phenny> sbp: I'll pass that on when wmf is around.
16:56:13 <phenny> bjoern_: that nickname is too long
16:56:21 <sbp> deltab: though there is an spb, so that would be difficult in this case
16:57:23 <deltab> not in this channel, though
16:57:58 <deltab> anyway, it'd only have to detect possible confusion
16:58:07 <deltab> like google does
16:58:22 <bjoern_> With parrot you could just grab the latest PSI:: mind reading module from CPAN and use it as appropriate...
16:58:59 <kpreid> "Did you mean: jpreid"
17:01:25 <sbp> oh, I see
17:01:39 <sbp> that's a good idea

17:17:11 <sbp> hey clsn
17:17:43 <sbp> hmm, I still don't see a link to Yf Rgalin on the front page
17:17:44 <clsn> * clsn looks up PSI::ESP.
17:17:51 <clsn> Not on front page.... You think it should be?
17:18:17 <clsn> It's under languages->constructed languages. Didn't think it necesarily warranted inclusion in "frequently sought pages" but maybe you're right.
17:18:31 <sbp> yeah
17:18:37 <sbp> also, what's the etymology of Shoulson?
17:20:24 <clsn> I think it's from "shaul" (Hebrew for Saul) plus "son" (germanic), i.e. son of saul.
17:20:39 <clsn> I have relatives in Israel who hebraicized their name to Ben-Shaul.
17:22:41 <sbp> phenny: ask jcowan if he has any ideas on http://swhack.com/logs/2006-01-16#T13-43-21

17:52:57 <Morbus> .
17:52:59 <phenny> Morbus: 05:37Z <sbp> ask Morbus whether serving .htaccess files poses any security risk. since Apache makes .ht* 403 by default I presume there's a reason for that, but I can't find *rationale* for it. hiding the filenames of password files doesn't seem like sufficient rationale to me
17:54:55 <Morbus> phenny, tell sbp the *rationale* is simply that it's not information that ever has a core *reason* for being served publically, and it's safer to hide it then to just let it fly by. crypt, as you know, *can* be easily broken (the prime reason we have /etc/shadow now), so allowing .htpasswd (which is the "recommended", but certainly not a *required* name) to be publically accessible was deemed as dangerous as allowing /etc/passwd to be as well.
17:54:57 <phenny> Morbus: I'll pass that on when sbp is around.
17:56:31 <sbp> wow, BBC News--they've found a portrait of Lady Jane Grey! in someone's house in South London. heh
17:56:34 <phenny> sbp: 17:54Z <Morbus> tell sbp the *rationale* is simply that it's not information that ever has a core *reason* for being served publically, and it's safer to hide it then to just let it fly by. crypt, as you know, *can* be easily broken (the prime reason we have /etc/shadow now), so allowing .htpasswd (which is the "recommended", but certainly not a *required* name) to be publically accessible was deemed as dangerous as allowing /etc/passwd to be as well.
17:57:13 <sbp> Morbus: I wouldn't be serving .htpasswd files. I don't even put them under the docroot
17:57:20 <sbp> it's purely the .htaccess files I'm concerned about
17:57:27 <sbp> and I think there's useful information in there
17:57:33 <Morbus> yeah, and there's nothing in there that would be entirely useful
17:57:48 <sbp> really? it's nice to see how people have set up their servers
17:57:57 <sbp> I have quite a few bits of mod_rewrite magic in mine, for example
17:58:02 <Morbus> besides, perhaps, the path to an .htpasswd, but if someone can get to the non-accessible path, you got bigger proplems than measly .htaccess perms.
17:58:08 <sbp> and just recently, a rule for serving .htaccess files :-)
17:58:16 <sbp> aye
17:58:31 <sbp> especially since they'd have to have privs
17:58:41 <sbp> (unless it was improperly permissioned)
17:59:32 <sbp> ah, here we go: http://www.guardian.co.uk/arts/news/story/0,11711,1687349,00.html

18:00:57 <sbp> interesting: "Mr Foley suspects the painting under consideration to be a near-contemporary copy of a lost original. The practice of copying portraits in order to put images into circulation was common."
18:01:00 <sbp> hi tav, max

18:03:58 <tav> * tav strokes sbp
18:04:11 <KragenSitaker> who's jane grey?
18:04:48 <maxkelley> KragenSitaker: A lady named jane.
18:04:57 <KragenSitaker> maxkelley: thanks
18:05:11 <Arnia> KragenSitaker: Queen of one town for fifteen days in the 16th century
18:05:14 <phenny> Arnia: 15 Jan 16:18Z <jcowan> tell Arnia to add Paul Kay's paper on non-productive patterns of coining at http://www.icsi.berkeley.edu/~kay/coining.pdf to his queue.
18:05:14 <maxkelley> anytime.
18:05:18 <phenny> Arnia: 15 Jan 16:20Z <jcowan> tell Arnia particularly section 3 on caused motion ("They laughed him off the stage" good, "She screamed him under the table" bad).
18:05:30 <sbp> Queen of England for nine days in 1553
18:05:36 <Arnia> Was it nine?
18:05:47 <Arnia> * Arnia wonders where the number 15 sprung to mind from
18:05:47 <sbp> there's some dispute, but nine is the normally cited figure
18:06:00 <sbp> thirteen is the other commonly touted figure
18:06:04 <Arnia> sbp: Well, technically not all of England accepted her
18:06:34 <sbp> technically not all of England accepted William I either
18:06:42 <sbp> Edgar Aetheling was chosen by the witan, indeed
18:07:26 <Arnia> True...
18:08:05 <Arnia> And England also had two palatines in the north which muddy the waters of command and control a bit
18:08:29 <sbp> yeah, 'twas an understandably turbulent time
18:09:21 <sbp> so I'm wondering about transferring the new portrait image to Wikipedia
18:09:39 <sbp> reading http://users.guardian.co.uk/help/article/0,12908,933909,00.html about the permissions of Guardian material, it seems that it's all copyrighted as normal
18:09:53 <sbp> not sure about Free Use
18:10:18 <sbp> Fair Use, even
18:10:39 <sbp> there's also a permissions contact address, but if it's anything like the British Library and certain other places...
18:12:25 <Arnia> Guardian content is up ad infinitum right?
18:12:32 <Arnia> So can't you just link to the article?
18:13:29 <sbp> yeah, though it'd be nice to actually include the portrait right up at the top right
18:13:43 <Arnia> Yeah
18:14:37 <d8uv> Morningz
18:14:42 <Morbus> eh oh, d8uv
18:15:24 <sbp> added a link, at any rate
18:15:29 <sbp> ehyup d8uv
18:15:50 <d8uv> WHY CAN'T YOU SAY "GOOD MORNING" LIKE NORMAL PEOPLE
18:16:02 <Morbus> well, it's afternoon here.
18:16:04 <Morbus> that'd be lying.
18:16:06 <KragenSitaker> so the gplv3 looks pretty good so far. haven't finished reading it yet.

18:17:04 <KragenSitaker> http://gplv3.fsf.org/
18:18:06 <jsled> What a logo!
18:19:09 <Arnia> Only thing that annoys me more than people using Plone Default without thought is people using Plone Default and managing to break it
18:19:19 <Arnia> * Arnia grumbles to himself
18:22:01 <Morbus> and how they pasted a word wrapped text in there and now it's all br'd ugily.
18:24:26 <sbp> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:LadyJaneGrey-Streatham.jpg
18:24:31 <KragenSitaker> morbus: that helps with running "diff" between the current version and later ones
18:25:01 <KragenSitaker> i jsut finished reading essentially all of it. the major changes are: 1. it's a lot clearer and explains a lot of things that are now relevant;
18:25:10 <Morbus> i have no problem with them pasting a word wrapped text file.
18:25:15 <Morbus> just pre the damn thing or something.
18:25:21 <Morbus> or turn off automatic html fuckuppering.
18:25:44 <clsn> Ugh. Do something about the bad wrapping, yes.
18:26:07 <KragenSitaker> oh, you probably aren't using the linearize bookmarklet
18:26:17 <Morbus> nor should i have to.
18:26:19 <KragenSitaker> so you're seeing it in that single narrow column
18:26:35 <KragenSitaker> 2. in particular, it elucidates the definition of what software it thinks is part of the combined work.
18:26:44 <sbp> there: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lady_Jane_Grey
18:26:48 <Morbus> does it clear up the idea of embedded modules?
18:26:59 <Morbus> like, say, a theme system for a GPL'd piece of software?
18:27:06 <Morbus> er, not a system. but a theme theme.
18:27:24 <Morbus> sbp: i think you mean 2006.
18:27:39 <Morbus> yer caption is wrong.

18:40:36 <bjoern_> hmm, say you have a character class like [a-z]; this is really just a shorthand for a choice 'a' or 'b' or 'c' ...
18:40:36 <bjoern_> what would you call the process by which such a character class is transformed into the equivalent choice?
18:40:36 <bjoern_> hmm, canonicalization maybe?
18:41:36 <clsn> expansion?
18:41:41 <raxor> raxor (n=chatzill@216.116.113.90) has joined #swhack
18:41:42 <jsled> I don't know. Is the "choice" form the canonical one?
18:41:53 <bjoern_> It's the "simpler" form
18:42:18 <raxor> #svg!
18:42:21 <bjoern_> no, expansion would be more like replacing references to other symbols in the grammar by their right hand side
18:42:24 <raxor> z/#svg!/#swhack!/
18:42:24 <sbp> expansion sounds better than canonicalisation: who's to say which form is the canonical? [a-z] is certainly more compact

18:43:43 <Morbus> (Rather!)
18:44:25 <jsled> Dan!
18:45:27 <KragenSitaker> 3. it also has provisions for preserving users' freedom under DRM; it looks like it's well thought out
18:47:28 <KragenSitaker> morbus: it does have more detailed stuff about embedded modules, but i haven't thought about what it says in detail, so i'm not sure what it says about things like theme copyrights.
18:47:47 <KragenSitaker> 4. it has more license compatibility hacks
18:51:40 <KragenSitaker> 5. in particular, it is compatible with the AFPL, which tackles the Server Problem.
18:51:59 <jsled> The Server Problem?
18:52:33 <Morbus> that running code on a server is distributing it, I blieve.
18:52:42 <KragenSitaker> not exactly
18:52:45 <KragenSitaker> but basically.
18:53:00 <KragenSitaker> you know. i can write a GPL program, and if you modify it, you can let me use your modified version as long as you keep it on your server.

18:54:09 <bloodymike> bloodymike has quit ("This computer has gone to sleep")
18:55:06 <KragenSitaker> the AFPL hack doesn't try to claim that running code on a server constitutes distribution. the GPL has a clause that prohibits you from removing or disabling any program function that displays the GPL; the AFPL analogously has a clause that prohibits you from removing or disabling any program function that sends the source code of the currently running version to the user.

20:38:56 <Morbus> sbp, what happened to WPIT?
20:39:04 <Morbus> I just got a zillion rss items with double encoding.
20:39:36 <Morbus> annoying, i don't know if this is from the planet, or your direct fdeed.
20:39:59 <crschmidt> I haven't changed anything in the planet setup
20:40:09 <crschmidt> but the content seems to be double encoded there
20:40:22 <Morbus> alright, so i'm probably subbing to there then.
20:41:37 <crschmidt> wonder how/why it broke
20:41:51 <crschmidt> oh, it broke on Dec 18th
20:42:04 <crschmidt> it seems
20:42:42 <Morbus> hrm.
20:42:46 <Morbus> yeah, those were my timestamps.
20:42:50 <Morbus> are those in the current rss feed?
20:42:59 <crschmidt> yep.
20:43:32 <Morbus> due to a huge "num items in feed" or because the planet really saw them as being new?
20:43:56 <crschmidt> They're in the feed on Dec 18th. They were new that day.
20:44:06 <crschmidt> The entries were really a lot older than that - the newest is from October.
