This is what I will be taking this semester ^.^

nice

Along with the care and feeding of embedded systems, both hardware and software; distributed systems; and computational intelligence.

This semester is going to be interesting.

This week's Ruby WTF:
16:37
<@jerith>
irb(main):003:0> Time.parse("foo")
16:37
<@jerith>
=> Thu Sep 06 17:42:45 +0200 2007
16:38
<@jerith>
If you give Time.parse (you need to require 'time' to get the .parse method) something it doesn't recognise, it returns /the current time/!
16:38
<@jerith>
No parse error, no recognisably bad value, just a perfectly valid timestamp that isn't the one you asked for.
16:43
< MinceR>
python > ruby
16:45
<@jerith>
Very.
16:45
<@jerith>
The more I use Ruby, the more I prefer Python.

jerith: I think you said it better than I could have.
17:26
<@jerith>
Don't get me wrong -- I'll take Ruby over a great many other languages.
17:28
< Vornicus>
Yeah, malbolge is a pain.
17:30
<@jerith>
Ruby's far better than PHP, for example.
17:30
<@jerith>
Given the choice between Rails and PHP, I'll take Python, though.
17:31
< Vornicus>
This is, by the way, one very big reason that my Settlers thing hasn't gotten anywhere in months.
17:32
< Vornicus>
I /cannot stand/ working in Ruby, but the tools I was using in Ruby do not have mature alternatives.
17:35
<@jerith>
What tools are were you using?
17:36
< Vornicus>
Rails, ActiveRecord...
17:36
< Vornicus>
Granted there's Django, but that thing is alpha software at best.
17:37
<@jerith>
SQLAlchemy.
17:37
<@jerith>
And look at Pylons on the web framework side.
17:38
< Vornicus>
ok.
17:38
<@jerith>
Although I'm rather partial to Twisted/Nevow which is more of an application server.
17:38
< Vornicus>
I also need something vaguely like rake; I'm hoping the standard distutils can do the stuff I need of it.
17:39
<@jerith>
I've never used any of those.
17:41 * Vornicus has a small pile of PostScript things that he uses to generate a /very much larger/ pile of PNGs.
