Hmm. When I become a proper Mad Scientist, I too will paint arrows on the sun.
00:55
< gnolam>
(I noticed the moon seemed to be tilted the wrong way, so I had to check the texture coordinates in the skybox code)
00:58
<@McMartin>
Wait, you "too"?
00:59
< gnolam>
Have I mentioned that I haven't slept in about 48 hours?
00:59
<@McMartin>
Heh
00:59
< gnolam>
I meant "I will paint arrows on the sun in real life"
00:59
<@McMartin>
I like the implication that out there somebody already had

(Perhaps a mad astrometer somewhere)

I blame Titivillus, the Demon of Typoes, for my writing.

"I am a poure dyuel, and my name ys Tytyvyllus ... I muste eche day ... brynge my master a thousande pokes full of faylynges, and of neglygences in syllables and wordes."
01:01 * gnolam makes a mental note to start using the phrase "bring [someone] a thousand pokes full of failings".
01:01
< gnolam>
Of course, in this channel I guess it would be a thousand POKEs. ^-^
01:01
<@McMartin>
I was about to ask about that one because couldn't tell if it was failings or the more macabre thousand pokes full of phalanges.
01:02
<@McMartin>
Is that from an actual work of Middle English or a cunning parody?
01:02
<@McMartin>
Because it's far better than Internet Standard
01:02
< gnolam>
Legit, as far as I can tell. :)
01:03
<@McMartin>
Middle English is so messed up. It's more chaotic than not only its successor, but its predecessors, too
01:04
< gnolam>
Skimming through the Myroure of Oure Ladye right now to see if I can find it.
01:07
< gnolam>
Yup, it's there. Page 54. :)

"Each day, m'lord, I mine the Internet; and then I bring unto my Dark Master a thousand bags of Fail; this being his due."

"I must each day bring my master a thousand faulty pointers and negligences in scope and allocation"

15:29 * gnolam WTFs at Google.
15:30
< gnolam>
DHTML crap for no reason whatsoever? Say it ain't so, Google, say it ain't so.
15:35
< gnolam>
Oh well. Guess it's time to start using fscking Bing then. I've been fed up with Google's search "help" for a while anyway. :P
15:36 * Namegduf can't remember the last time he actually visited the Google homepage
15:36
< Namegduf>
What DHTML crap?
15:37
< gnolam>
<html onmousemove="google&&google.fade&&google.fade()">
15:38
< gnolam>
Basically, the entire page fades in when you move the mouse.
15:38
< gnolam>
It's not just extremely distracting, it's fucking unnecessary.
15:39
< Namegduf>
I'm not seeing it.
15:39 * Namegduf searched the source for it on http://www.google.com/webhp, which seems to be as close as he can get to US google
15:40
< gnolam>
I guess it's not rolled out to all mirrors yet. :P
15:40
< Namegduf>
Out of curiosity, do you actually still search via the search engine's own page?
15:40
< gnolam>
Yes.
15:40
< gnolam>
Ah, apparently they're "testing" it: http://www.seroundtable.com/archives/020907.html
15:41
< Namegduf>
Huh. Last time I had to use a browser without a search bar, the need to type out a URL just to start a search for something else annoyed the hell out of me.
15:41
< gnolam>
If the misfeature stays, I'm moving to another search engine. Seriously, it's that distracting.

So, when someone new-ish to Python asked me how to get numbers from a string, I erred and ummed a bit and then came to the obvious answer: Regular expressions. Is this what the slippery slope to madness feels like?
22:24 * Derakon[work] snerks.
22:24
< Derakon[work]>
Depending on the string, split() might work as well.
22:26
< EvilDarkLord>
Can you do splits on multiple possible strings with that?
22:27
< Derakon[work]>
As long as you have a consistent delimeter.
22:29
< EvilDarkLord>
I'm being unclear. I mean, can you have multiple possible delimiters?
22:30
< Derakon[work]>
Only by chain-casting split()
22:30
< EvilDarkLord>
Though this seems like a bad idea in the general case. Never mind. :p
22:33
< Derakon[work]>
Ahhh, code pushed to the remote repo. Now I feel better.
