Serious question: Are there actually bigger markets left ~

India's pretty big.

McMartin: I quite liked how Finnish public broadcasting dealt with that issue

< Azash>
"A vulnerability has been found in the so-called glibc codex, an important part of when the Internet connects two devices"
09:46
<@TheWatcher>
...
09:46
<@TheWatcher>
Reading that actually causes me physical pain.
09:51
<@gnolam>
Such is the power within the ancient Glibc Codex.

<&McMartin>
It's not the Glibc Codex unless you've bound the folios into a hardcover.
10:11
<&McMartin>
... that means files are folios aren't they, oh dear

<&McMartin>
Codex, unlike "grimoire", does not actually mean anything particularly occult
10:13
<&McMartin>
A codex is a book book, as opposed to a pamphlet or a scroll.
10:14
<&McMartin>
(That said: grimoire and grammar are cognate. Fear the writings of the Bison Scribe.)
10:14
<&McMartin>
...
10:14
<&McMartin>
wiki on this topic:
10:14
<&McMartin>
"A codex accommodates random access, as opposed to a scroll, which uses sequential access."
10:15
<@TheWatcher>
...
10:15
<&McMartin>
It's true!
10:15
<@TheWatcher>
I... yeah, it is.
10:15
<&McMartin>
The best kind of true.
10:15
<@TheWatcher>
It's technically true.
10:16
<&McMartin>
It's also a sign that our culture is leaking to places that maybe it shouldn't, even while being the obvious modern default vocabulary for it
10:16
<&McMartin>
Also fun: "codex" is from a word meaning, basically "block of wood"
10:16
<&McMartin>
Speaking of The Best Kind Of True, and one you can verify yourself by trying to move a box stuffed with paperbacks >_<
10:17 * McMartin thinks to look up where the word 'random' comes from
10:18
<&McMartin>
Apparently it's from 'run'. "at random" meant "really fast" -> "recklessly" -> "disordered" -> "in no particular order".
10:32
< Azash>
I should TN here
10:32
<@TheWatcher>
TN?
10:32
< Azash>
They didn't use library as a word, rather, they somehow opted for codex as it can also be understood as an arcane plural of code
10:33
< Azash>
Translation note or w/e
10:33
< Azash>
So it's codex but if you twist your head a bit around it, it turns into CODEZ, which might not be much better
10:34
< Azash>
re. etymology, my favourite word is probably "disease"
10:35
<&McMartin>
heh
10:37
<&McMartin>
But yeah, character. word, paragraph, page, file, folder, volume...
10:37
<&McMartin>
... codex fits right in!
10:39
<&McMartin>
That also said
10:39
<@TheWatcher>
Oh dear.
10:39
<&McMartin>
"codes" as the stuff produced by coding, rather than "code", has a long and legit history
10:39
<&McMartin>
Using it does tend to mean you probably came to programming via scientific computing rather than via hacking or CS though
10:40 * McMartin has been known to refer to it as "the logic", which he suspects he inherited from his EE officemates.

<@abudhabi>
How do I get `perl -p -itxt -e "s/1444.11.11/1318.1.1/g" *.txt` to recurse over subdirectories?
14:59
<@TheWatcher>
I'd suggest using find and xargs: `find . -iname '*.txt' | xargs perl -p .... etc ` and drop the *.txt off the end of the perl command line
15:00
<@TheWatcher>
(you can also just use `find . -iname '*.txt' | less` to double-check that you're only going to hit files you expect to)
15:02
<@abudhabi>
Hm. I didn't actually need to recurse, because most of the relevant files were in one directory, but hm. Is that thing feeding filenames to the perl oneliner?
15:02
<@TheWatcher>
Yep
15:03
<@TheWatcher>
To see what it's passing, you can do `find . -iname '*.txt' | xargs echo`

TheWatcher, abudhabi: if there's any chance that the filenames contain whitespace in them, use 'find ... -print0 | xargs -0'
