| 00:00 | <&McMartin> | So most of the shared memory operations are basically a message queue of draw commands from the "everything else" thread, and the music decoder is a mutex-guarded global struct that can be treated as equivalent to a message queue with either 0 or 1 entries. |
| 00:00 | <&ToxicFrog> | I don't remember SDL having "redraw needed" events, but it's been a long time since I used it |
| 00:01 | <&McMartin> | It doesn't; it handles that stuff for you when the underlying window system says "you were moved" |
| 00:01 | <&ToxicFrog> | Aah |
| 00:01 | <&McMartin> | SDL_Flip() updates the relevant internal data structures |
| 00:01 | <&McMartin> | I forget if Move is also bubbled up to the event stream, but resize certainly is, if permitted |
| 00:02 | <&McMartin> | The 3DO had hardware support for fire-and-forget threads, so the original code was absolutely lousy with threads for doing things like background ambient animations and such |
| 00:03 | <&McMartin> | Somewhere around 0.4 SvdB and I shoved it all into a single thread which became the "everything else" thread. |

| 00:03 | <&McMartin> | UQM also very, very, flagrantly does not follow the Fix Your Timestep rules. |
| 00:04 | <&McMartin> | The game update is on its own counter, which is used to update the display, which SDL then updates as needed. |

| 03:02 | | * macdjord|wurk thwaps whoever designed the .cue file format |
| 03:02 | <@macdjord|wurk> | If you are specifying timepoints as second-minute-frame (where 'frame' is 1/75th of a second), MM:SS:FF is not the way to do it, because that is the universal standard for hour-minute-second. |
| 03:37 | <&McMartin> | Hate to say it, but I've seen that in a bunch of places |
| 03:37 | <&McMartin> | I have to admit it is superior to Super Hexagon, where it is SS.FF |

| 04:23 | <@macdjord> | McMartin: MM:SS/FF or MM:SS,FF would be better |
| 04:24 | <@macdjord> | Or > or - or ' |
| 04:25 | <@macdjord> | ANything but colon, which is already used for second, or period, which would mean decimal fraction of a seoncd/ |

| 05:08 | <~Vornicus> | I think that would make this like five posts though |

| 17:15 | <&McMartin> | "The floppy disks in particular won't easily fit inside the slots if not sanded" |
| 17:15 | <&McMartin> | That's a piece of advice I never got in *my* old users' group |
| 17:15 | <&McMartin> | (http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2087823 ) |
| 17:18 | <&ToxicFrog> | Oh god |
| 17:19 | <&ToxicFrog> | From our "terrible ideas" mailing list: |
| 17:19 | <&ToxicFrog> | - we should automatically auction off all deleted code to the highest bidder. Just because we don't want it anymore doesn't mean it's not useful. |
| 17:20 | <&ToxicFrog> | - good idea, but do it Auction Hunters style -- show them an encrypted archive and they get to see a randomly selected 5% of it. Imagine the excitement! "We thought this was a simple logging library, but it's actually 2/7ths of a kernel module!" |

| 18:33 | <&McMartin> | My bad idea of the day revolves around changelist tracking |
| 18:33 | <&McMartin> | It has been observed that to succeed open source projects need to have some kind of core group and usually also require a dictator for The Final Word to get thing to happen and not just devolve into endless bikeshedding and sniping |
| 18:34 | <&McMartin> | I used to joke that UQM was a feudal theocracy becauce the core team mostly worked on independent parts of the code individually, and we all were united by a shared commitment to preserving the essence of the original form |
| 18:34 | <&McMartin> | My bad idea of the day is that Immorton Joe should pronounce your changelogs, if you have a Proper Dictator |
| 18:34 | <&McMartin> | Do not, my contributors, become addicted to cache hits! They will take hold of you, and you will resent their absence! |
