| 05:19 | < Mischief> | By chance, does anyone might know where I might find a female to female IDE ata 133 connector? |
| 05:32 | <@ToxicFrog> | ...no clue. |
| 05:32 | <@ToxicFrog> | Although that's essentially what an ATA cable is |
| 05:32 | <@ToxicFrog> | So if you have a reasonably short one, you can just use that |
| 05:35 | < Mischief> | The female connector is the connect that the ribbon cable plugs into, isn't it? |
| 05:35 | < Mischief> | As a ata ribbon cable is male to male. |
| 05:35 | < Mischief> | I'm looking to connect the end of a ribbon cable into another ribbon cable. |
| 05:41 | < Mischief> | Actually, I worded it wrong. A ribbon cable has a male connector on each end, and it plugs respectively into the female connectors. (HDD, Disc Drive, what have you, into motherboard) |
| 05:42 | < Mischief> | I'm looking for two female connectors so that I may connect two males together. So effectively, I can plug one ribbon cable, into the other. |
| 05:46 | <@ToxicFrog> | Er |
| 05:47 | <@ToxicFrog> | The female connector is the one without the pins, IMO |
| 05:47 | < Mischief> | Yeah, you're right. I'm just confusing myself. |
| 05:48 | < Mischief> | Simply: I need an opposite of an IDE cable. =/ |

| 18:09 | < MyCatVerbs> | Java has operator overloading? Where? |

| 18:16 | <@ToxicFrog> | MyCatVerbs: java.lang.String |
| 18:17 | | * ToxicFrog rummages through the standard library |
| 18:17 | <@ToxicFrog> | If Java doesn't have getopts, I will cry |
| 18:19 | < MyCatVerbs> | ToxicFrog: ahhh, but only as an evil special case which you aren't allowed to ever replicate yourself because of course *mortals* can't be trusted with that sort of power. |
| 18:19 | < MyCatVerbs> | ToxicFrog: not that there's really any way to properly shoot yourself in the foot with operator overloading in a GCed language, unlike C++. |
| 18:21 | <@ToxicFrog> | Well, you can do stupid things like, I don't know, overloading summation to mean concatenation. |
| 18:21 | <@ToxicFrog> | But that's just being obfuscatory, which you can do just fine in Java even without operator overloads. |
| 18:22 | < MyCatVerbs> | Sure, and you can define a function MyInteger.Add which actually calculates the price of cheese in Venezuala. But that isn't the language's fault, either. :) |
| 18:22 | <@ToxicFrog> | My point exactly. |
| 18:22 | <@ToxicFrog> | Also, fucking == |
| 18:24 | <@ToxicFrog> | ... |
| 18:24 | <@ToxicFrog> | Java does not have getopts. |
| 18:24 | | * ToxicFrog weeps tears of bubbling pitch |
| 18:31 | < MyCatVerbs> | Haskell has. |
| 18:31 | < MyCatVerbs> | Even on Windows, too. They wrote their own getopts implementation and everything. |
| 18:32 | <@ToxicFrog> | Yes, and this would be of great help if I could use haskell for this project |
| 18:34 | < MyCatVerbs> | Sorry. That was mean of me. :/ |
| 18:34 | < MyCatVerbs> | (Fucking == indeed, aye.) |
| 18:36 | < MyCatVerbs> | Implement semi-getopts? |
| 18:36 | <@AnnoDomini> | What is getopts? |
| 18:36 | < MyCatVerbs> | AnnoDomini: POSIX option handling. |
| 18:36 | <@ToxicFrog> | I will be completely ignoring the requirement that I use an array to store cache metadata, and the one that we can't use Java's prefab URL parser, but I'm not willing to push my luck far enough to use a completely different language, because I would rather like to pass this course. |
| 18:37 | <@ToxicFrog> | AnnoDomini: command line argument parser. |
| 18:37 | <@AnnoDomini> | Aha. |
| 18:37 | < MyCatVerbs> | AnnoDomini: y'know how unix utilities have flags like -v, -i <foo>, et cetera? |
| 18:37 | <@AnnoDomini> | Yeah. |
| 18:37 | <@ToxicFrog> | You give it an argument specification, and it parses stuff like -abc -dfoo --bar --baz=moby into (a, b, c, (d, foo), bar, (baz, moby)) |
| 18:37 | < MyCatVerbs> | AnnoDomini: and you can stick multiple flags (provided only the last one takes an argument, if any) together, like "-i foo -p -v" is equivalent to "-pvi foo" |
| 18:38 | <@ToxicFrog> | Those aren't equivalent. |
| 18:38 | <@ToxicFrog> | There are programs where order of arguments is significant. |
| 18:39 | < MyCatVerbs> | ToxicFrog: oh aye, you're right. It's just that I've never had cause to write one myself. |
| 18:42 | <@ToxicFrog> | Anyways. This goatfucking program has a bunch of options - -c/--cache-size, -o/--object-count, -n/--no-cache, -m/--memory-cache, -p/--port, -f/--force-cache, -s/--sort, probably a few others I haven't thought of yet |
| 18:42 | <@ToxicFrog> | And I'd rather not parse them by hand |
| 18:42 | < MyCatVerbs> | ...goat fu...? |
| 18:42 | < MyCatVerbs> | /usr/local/bin/goatfuck |
| 18:42 | < MyCatVerbs> | goatfuck --dildo=huge? |
| 18:44 | <@ToxicFrog> | ...er. |
| 18:44 | <@ToxicFrog> | The task of programming it is of the fucking of goats. |
| 18:44 | <@ToxicFrog> | The program itself is an HTTP proxy. |
