| 04:39 | < Consul> | http://stashbox.org/574787/kazoo2.mp3 -- design #2. Please don't mind the out-of-tune humming. |
| 04:40 | < Consul> | This one has a larger output signal, and is also more resistant to handling noise. |
| 04:41 | <@Phas> | ...are you playing a kazoo through an effect loop? |
| 04:42 | < Consul> | It's electrified with a piezo disc, and sent through some effects, yes. |
| 04:42 | <@Derakon> | It's the electric kazoo! |
| 04:42 | <@Derakon> | Same idea as an electric guitar. |
| 04:42 | <@Phas> | An... electric kazoo. |
| 04:42 | < Consul> | A guitar amp sim, a phaser, and a reverb. |
| 04:42 | <@Phas> | That's royally bizarre. |
| 04:42 | < Consul> | The sim is set to clean, by the way. No distortion. |
| 04:43 | < Consul> | I mainly just wanted the cabinet filtering. |
| 04:43 | <@Phas> | MInd if I throw this elsewhere? |
| 04:44 | < Consul> | Sure |
| 04:44 | < Consul> | As in, go ahead. |
| 04:44 | <@Phas> | 'k |
| 04:47 | < Consul> | Please mention that the tune was done as a first take. I really am better than that. |
| 04:48 | < Consul> | I really should share only decent examples, but I'm lazy. |
| 04:48 | <@Derakon> | I don't think people will be complaining. :) |
| 04:49 | <@SmithKurosaki> | Vorn, what's with the name change? |

| 04:56 | <@SmithKurosaki> | Ahh, coo; |
| 04:56 | < Consul> | There'll be more WTF about the fact that some moron electrified a kazoo. :-) |
| 05:02 | <@Derakon> | Bah. It's genius, I tells ya. |
| 05:19 | < Consul> | In actual use, I'll probably put it through some distortion and then a resonant filter (like a Moog filter) which I'll automate within the DAW to give it a real synth-like quality. |

| 16:01 | <@TheWatcher> | simontwo: I use an incremental backup system using a mix of cpio and rsync, generally to another machine in the department or at home. |
| 16:01 | | SmithKurosaki is now known as NSGuest-1458 |
| 16:02 | < simontwo> | TheWatcher, does "generally" imply that it's not cronned? |
| 16:03 | < simontwo> | TheWatcher, so cpio adds stuff to archives and rsync incrementally backs those up. sounds neat. |
| 16:03 | <@TheWatcher> | no |
| 16:03 | <@TheWatcher> | all my backups are cronned. Except two machines have setups that do incremental backups locally every 30 minutes, and then remotely daily |
| 16:04 | <@TheWatcher> | and the system is split into two parts: |
| 16:04 | < simontwo> | oh. wow. |
| 16:04 | < simontwo> | you do value your data. |
| 16:04 | <@TheWatcher> | on the remote machine there is a 'rotate,sh' script that... sod it, give me a sec |
| 16:07 | <@TheWatcher> | http://pastebin.starforge.co.uk/8 is on the machine the backups go onto. |
| 16:07 | | Syloqs_AFH [~Syloq@Admin.Nightstar.Net] has joined #code |

| 16:11 | <@TheWatcher> | http://pastebin.starforge.co.uk/9 |
| 16:12 | <@TheWatcher> | (of course, this needs ssh set up so that it can log into the other machine as user without a password challenge, so public key auth) |
| 16:13 | < simontwo> | yeah. |
| 16:13 | < simontwo> | that's neat, thanks. |
| 16:14 | <@TheWatcher> | The real trick is the use of cpio on the remote machine to get the incremental effect, but I've used variations on this system for a couple of years now at work and home, and it is quite effective. |

| 16:51 | <@ToxicFrog> | API sanity checking time GO! |
| 16:51 | <@ToxicFrog> | I have a class ResFile. It represents a file on disk holding resources (blocks of data identified by a unique uint16_t) |
| 16:51 | <@ToxicFrog> | At the moment the API looks like: |
| 16:52 | <@ToxicFrog> | :new([filename]) - create a ResFile and optionally load/create a file on disk backing it |
| 16:52 | <@ToxicFrog> | :open(filename), :create(filename) - open an existing file or create a new one (perhaps these should both be :open()?) |
| 16:52 | <@ToxicFrog> | :commit() - write changes to disk |
| 16:52 | <@ToxicFrog> | :close() - write changes to disk and release all resources |
| 16:53 | <@ToxicFrog> | For actually getting at the chunks, I'm a bit less sure, but what I think I've settled on is: |
| 16:53 | <@ToxicFrog> | :get(id...) - return Chunk objects for the given IDs |
| 16:53 | <@ToxicFrog> | :put(Chunk...) - store/update chunks |
| 16:54 | <@ToxicFrog> | Where a Chunk object is basically a bunch of readonly informational fields (data size, etc); a readwrite datatype field; and a readwrite buffer or table of actual data. |
| 16:54 | <@ToxicFrog> | Thoughts? |
| 16:59 | | * TheWatcher eyes |
| 17:00 | < SmithKurosaki> | I think it looks good, but I am not a completely trustable opinion due to lack of background |
| 17:00 | <@TheWatcher> | does create() create the file immediately, or wait for a commit? If it doesn't create immediately, I'd say keep it separate from open() |
| 17:01 | <@ToxicFrog> | ...good question, actually. |
| 17:04 | <@ToxicFrog> | It's easiest if it creates the file immediately. |
| 17:04 | <@TheWatcher> | Okies, I'd say merge with open() then. |
| 17:05 | <@ToxicFrog> | Oh, I left out a field: comment |
| 17:13 | <@ToxicFrog> | Unrelatedly, compcache is and continues to be awesome. |
| 17:14 | <@ToxicFrog> | I'm at 1.2GB allocated and the system is still running perfectly smoothly despite only having 1GB of memory. |

| 22:01 | < Consul> | I just found the old conversation talking about doing FFTs on guitars to extract single notes. :-) |
| 22:01 | < Consul> | Whcih then turned into a discussion about stupid Youtube comments. |
| 22:32 | | * Derakon eyes this line on a job app: "Previous experience porting from development to production a plus" |
| 22:33 | <@Derakon> | You don't port from dev to prod. Dev is prod, just with less traffic. ._. |
| 22:35 | < Consul> | Maybe they made a mistake and all of their dev code is in the wrong language, so they need someone to port it to the right one and put it in production. |
| 22:35 | <@TheWatcher> | ... that sounds insane enough to be possible |
| 22:36 | <@Derakon> | This is Kaiser Permanente here (a hospital organization). |
