VRON
01:38
< Reiver>
So I have a question
01:38
< Reiver>
Do I want to change all my files and direct data operations into raws just in order to take care of a single statline?
01:40
< Reiver>
Or do I keep everything as stat mods, and have to store the raws seperately?
01:40
< Reiver>
Or do I store the baseline stats alone as raws, convert them inside the program, and leave everything else as mods to apply to the baseline mods once they've been loaded in?
01:44
< Vornicus>
Are you Absolutely Certain that you'll never see an odd change to the raw?
01:45
< Reiver>
An odd change?
01:45
< Reiver>
Oh.
01:46
< Reiver>
Yeah, pretty much
01:47
< Reiver>
http://www.d20pfsrd.com/magic/all-spells/b/beast-shape-ii - because as you can see, the stat mods are hardcoded to the spells that comprise Wildshape.
01:52 Stalker [Z@3A600C.A966FF.5BF32D.8E7ABA] has joined #code
01:53
< Vornicus>
Okay. Then baselines as raws, everything else as mods, and then if you REALLY need to you can switch up to raw mods easily just by doubling.
01:54
< Reiver>
But in the meantime everything is a little touch cleaner. Alright.
01:55
< Reiver>
So, baseline: Skills, stats, BAB. Pretty much that's all that counts.
01:55
< Reiver>
I do have INA Claw and INA Bite, but I've been applying that to the critters as I go; it's not going to change from this point onward anyway.

Why they can't just use big-endian throughout like sane, sensible people, I don't know.
13:58 * Tamber flops, attempts to wave, can't lift arm, etc.
13:59
< Tamber>
So, I need to set up a portal to step back in time and punch my stupid past self in the crotch for thinking all that SPARC gear wouldn't be so heavy.
13:59 * Tamber breaks out the Perl.
14:07
< Reiver>
SPARC?
14:07
< Tamber>
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:SPARCstation_1.jpg
14:07
< Tamber>
Thankfully, sans monitor, because that really would have killed me. I'd be dead, on a footbridge over a railway line.
14:08
< Tamber>
Killed by some Sun equipment.
14:12
< TheWatcher>
ahahaha
14:12
< TheWatcher>
Yeah, some of it is notorious
14:13
< Tamber>
55kg, the lot of it comes out to; including shoebox and manuals. I weigh 75kg, and don't usually do anything much more strenuous than walk to the shops. Result? I feel like my limbs are made of wet noodles.
14:16
< MagisterEngineerAnno>
Start learning martial arts!
14:25
< TheWatcher>
Tamber: 'course the obvious question here is why you're lugging around bits of computer history
14:26
< Tamber>
I thought I could do with some exercise! Actually, no, I was collecting it from a guy who was giving it away, then it's getting packed up to go to a friend of mine who wants it.
14:26
< Tamber>
I had a "woah" moment when it finally dawned on me who this guy was.
14:26
< TheWatcher>
Oh?
14:27
< Tamber>
Dr. C. H. Lindsey.
14:28
< TheWatcher>
Hah
14:29
< Reiver>
?
14:31
< Tamber>
Algol, amongst other things.
14:32
< Reiver>
Who you got it off, or who you're giving it to?
14:33
< TheWatcher>
Former manchester uni lecturer, one of the ALGOL68 designers, was largely responsible for slavaging the utter clusterfuck that was the uk.* usenet tree in the mid 90s, stuff like that
14:33
< Tamber>
Reiver, that I got it off.
14:33
< TheWatcher>
That SPARC station was one of the machines he took when he retired, then
14:33
< Tamber>
So it seems.
14:35
< TheWatcher>
Was a bit before my time (I started at manchester the year he left), but he is still technically a honorary fellow
14:36
< TheWatcher>
(or was it a couple of years before, can't properly remember *shrug*)
14:36 * TheWatcher ponders what to do with this stray alignment byte in this file format
15:09
< gnolam>
TheWatcher: as long as you promise to feed it, you can keep it.
15:27
< Reiver>
TheWatcher: Use it as a checksum via an undocumented method of data integrity checking.
15:28
< Tamber>
Occasionally set it randomly.
15:32
< gnolam>
Split it into a Lawful/Neutral/Chaotic and a Good/Neutral/Evil field.
15:33
< Reiver>
Assign it based on the date. Using the Ceasarian calendar system.

21:30 * Derakon sighs.

< Derakon>
Need to make a 64-bit version of this OSX program that uses scipy and wxWidgets.
21:30
< Derakon>
wxWidgets: 32-bit only up until Python 2.7, since they'd been using the Carbon API for UI calls, which Apple deprecated ages ago.
21:31
< Derakon>
Scipy/numpy: only has unofficial 64-bit builds (for a scientific programming library?!), and those only for Python 2.6.
21:31
< McMartin>
"Which Apple deprecated ages ago, except for stuff like printer management, which continues to have no Cocoa alternatives"
21:32
< Derakon>
Hooray.
21:32
< Derakon>
Fortunately I don't need printer support.
21:32
< McMartin>
Oh, printer *support* is in Cocoa.
21:32
< McMartin>
But did you want to programatically select or configure a printer? It's Carbon for you!
21:32
< McMartin>
Or try to reverse engineer how both of them interface with CUPS, which is a lolno.
21:34
< celticminstrel>
Is wxCocoa finally considered stable, then?
21:36
< McMartin>
I wouldn't bet any sum on it.
21:36
< Derakon>
It's on the official download page for wxPython. http://www.wxpython.org/download.php
21:36
< Derakon>
Dunno about non-Python-specific builds.
21:36
< McMartin>
Not the same question~
21:36
< Derakon>
True.
21:39
< McMartin>
03:25 < TheWatcher> Why they can't just use big-endian throughout like sane, sensible people, I don't know.
21:39
< McMartin>
I'm sure you know the answer to that, but it bears repeating: Assembler programmers have a sad when they can't cast for free
21:39
< celticminstrel>
Blergh.
21:39
< McMartin>
Alternately, of course, is the famed exchange from a US political campaign many years ago.

21:41 * McMartin eyes Sourceforge, which has served up an ad for something called "MeeGo".
21:41
< Derakon>
Vas ist?
21:41
< McMartin>
I can't tell if this is on purpose, someone disgruntled slipping stuff past the radar, or what.
21:41
< McMartin>
It appears to be a huge pile of buzzwords.
21:42
< McMartin>
However, it is also named for Lovecraftian alien beings, slightly misspelled.
21:42
< McMartin>
It's like having an OO platform for KDE named KToolOO.
21:42
< Derakon>
Ah, yes.
21:42
< Derakon>
Hee
21:42
< Derakon>
Wow, that is a lot of buzzwords.
21:43
< McMartin>
"MeeGo is an open source Linux project brings together the Moblin project, headed up by Intel, and Maemo, by Nokia, into a single open source activity. The MeeGo based platform is specifically designed to enable the application and services ecosystem for mobile and media-centric devices powered by Intel Atom processors."
21:43
< McMartin>
Yes sir, that makes me want to click, for sure.
21:43
<@Namegduf>
Wow, that's awful.
21:43
< Tamber>
And in all that text, they haven't actually said anything. Impressive.
21:43
<@Namegduf>
It's a Linux-based OS for netbooks and tablets
21:43
< McMartin>
Also, Moblin? Does Intel also have an Oktorok project?
21:44
<@Namegduf>
The history lesson is pretty irrelevant to an ad
21:44
<@Namegduf>
I mean really
21:44
<@Namegduf>
They don't care
21:44
< McMartin>
Well, to be fair
21:44
< McMartin>
They could tell me what it is
21:44
< McMartin>
and I still wouldn't care
21:44
< McMartin>
So, I mean, why go halfway, right?
21:46
< McMartin>
They're missing "synergize" and "value-add", though I note in passing that "value-add" actually encapsulates a useful concept that doesn't have a pre-existing convenient noun.
