00:03:42 <bjoern_> Thinking about it, it might be possible to shorten the syntax to something like this
00:03:50 <bjoern_> yield WaitForEvent(function(){ img1.src = '...'; }, img1, 'load');
00:04:10 <bjoern_> this would of course be much less painful if Firefox would support IE's readyState attribute...
00:04:34 <bjoern_> then I could simply check for the State or Event
00:06:11 <bjoern_> there is probably an argument missing in the above, but the general direction should be okay

10:26:40 <bjoern_> You and your severance avoidance.
10:27:14 <laplink> Hey, I'm responsible for the budget now.
10:27:42 <laplink> Those grubby employees and their insistence on getting paid all the time are ruining my numbers.
10:27:43 <bjoern_> So you get to be blamed when people spend the monies poorly?
10:28:13 <laplink> I get to be blamed when they spend the monies _wisely_.
10:28:40 <bjoern_> You probably get to be blamed either way, you just haven't experienced both options yet.
10:28:42 <JimJibber> Don't pay them laplink!
10:29:03 <laplink> I tried that, but the miserable little grunts refused to work.
10:29:51 <bjoern_> post a sign "Always remember, I can keep my monies if you are found floating in a river".
10:30:02 <laplink> One of the explained that workers are like electrical appliances; if you pull out the plug (stop their salary payments) they stop working. Who knew.
10:30:30 <laplink> Actually I shouldn't joke.
10:30:39 <bjoern_> Does that also apply to pulling the plug out of female workers?
10:31:04 <laplink> I was || close to taking ver as PHB for this group in the middle of a strike.
10:32:23 <laplink> Hmm. Now there's an interesting idea.
10:32:47 <laplink> Workers who displease me are punished by being required to wear a buttplug to work.
10:32:57 <laplink> Now this has potential.
10:33:24 <laplink> The diameter could be determined by the severity of the offence.
10:34:08 <bjoern_> You might end up with many naughty workers though.
10:34:11 <laplink> For the really bad cases (backtalk, subversion, demands for pay rises) one could make it a ribbed model.
10:35:40 <bjoern_> Ah, for a moment there I was thinking Microsoft may have merged BackOffice and BizTalk, but pay rise demands doesn't seem to be software.
10:40:24 <JimJibber> But won't the ones who enjoy the buttplugs just be permanently naughty?
10:42:08 <laplink> Ah, I hadn't considered that. Perhaps this idea merits further study before implementation.
10:42:42 <bjoern_> You going to experiment on yourself?

14:48:47 <laplink> Today being a barbecue day, I'm saving up space for tonight's feast.
14:49:10 <sbp> and some guy next to me was like a curry connoisseur or something
14:49:19 <sbp> so I'm like oh yeah? maybe I should have the curry too then
14:49:39 <sbp> and he's like oooh, I wouldn't sonny jim (I was like 15 or something), it's very hot!
14:49:52 <sbp> and I'm like well fair enough, but I wanna try it
14:50:08 <sbp> so we both tuck in, and it's pretty damn good. is fairly hot, but doesn't affect me much
14:50:30 <sbp> and by the end of the meal I'm all "yay, it was good" and he's all getting his handkerchief out and wiping his brow...

14:54:29 <laplink> Oh, which reminds me...
14:54:55 <laplink> I'm mixing the end of Trussler and Shapiro's Preface.
14:55:16 <sbp> ah! you mean it's Trussler's you didn't like?
14:56:06 <laplink> But one of them had an excerpt from Iohnson's diary speaking of Shakespeare and blotting of lines, which was new to me.
14:56:32 <sbp> not from his diary, it's from... you know, I can't remember
14:56:36 <laplink> Well, not new; but which hadn't really registered.
14:56:40 <sbp> one of his later random essay things though
14:56:59 <sbp> it also contains an alternative reading of a bit in Julius Caesar

16:22:56 <sbp> 673-692
16:24:29 <laplink> Sounds like Greene or Marlowe.
16:24:52 <sbp> he comments very disapprovingly on Marlowe just a short way above
16:24:56 <sbp> but it couldn't be either, I think
16:25:06 <sbp> they both died very young in Jonson's career; before he was known
16:25:13 <laplink> It'd match Shaks except he's notoriously averse to “sport” if anecdotal evidence is to be believed.
16:25:15 <sbp> he was still presumably a bricklayer at the time of their deaths
16:25:26 <laplink> Ah.
16:26:01 <sbp> (actually, not disapproving as such I think; I think he's saying Marlowe was too opaque, but very good once mined)
16:26:43 <laplink> In the same way he thinks Shaks some times too verbose, and prone to accidental illogic in his phrase.
16:30:13 <sbp> maybe, though you'd figure he'd then use him as an example instead of Marlowe
16:30:45 <sbp> I think Shakespeare was actually fairly good at that: he wrote for high and low quite well

20:38:19 <Arnia> I wonder what GCSE English teaches people these days actually
20:46:46 <_bjoern> Are makefiles computer programs?
20:50:05 <Arnia> Yes
20:50:32 <_bjoern> So makefile syntax is a programming language?
20:50:49 <Arnia> yep... not a particularly robust or pretty one, but yes
20:50:55 <_bjoern> turing complete?
20:51:20 <Arnia> Irrelevant (Epigram isn't Turing-complete)
20:51:49 <_bjoern> there is no context to my question
20:52:02 <_bjoern> so, it cannot be irrelevant
20:53:21 <Arnia> It is irrelevant in the context of asking whether it is a programming language, which is the context I thought you were using :/
20:54:10 <_bjoern> I was just asking independent question. I just found it curious to see them described as "computer programs". I never thought about whether that's an accurate characterization.
20:54:26 <_bjoern> I agree that you can be a programming language without being turing complete.
20:54:51 <_bjoern> Although it is difficult to avoid turing completeness, in my experience.
20:56:29 <Arnia> As I said, Epigram manages it :)
20:58:16 <Arnia> Interesting language Epigram... one of the purest expressions of the Curry-Howard isomorphism I've ever seen. You write your programs by writing theorems about them. The interpreter then guides you in proving those theorems by writing a program which constructs the thing the proof is talking about
20:59:10 <_bjoern> Sounds mathematical.
20:59:11 <Arnia> As the type-system is inordinately more powerful than the modified HM system of Haskell, the interpreter can basically do most of that job itself. It is only when you need to clarify things that you must step in
20:59:34 <Arnia> Yes, it is. It isn't meant for general use, but rather to demonstrate what you can do with dependently typed systems
21:00:32 <Arnia> Another strand of work on Constructive Type Theory (CTT) and its relatives — the Grammatical Framework — aims to show that you can give an interpretation of large sections of natural language in terms of dependent types
21:00:52 <Arnia> I imagine a successor project to both of these projects will aim to bridge that gap
