10:11:57 <verdule> Well I really didn't need to login to this channel at all. So goodbye. I'm leaving. 10:12:03 <-- verdule (colin@Nightstar-6dnqro.skybroadband.com) has quit ([NS] Quit: Leaving) 10:18:26 <&[R]> Rude
01:31
< Yossarian>
my mistake
01:32
< Yossarian>
he's kinda socially tarded I guess, too lazy to do research on particular product (USB hub and 3-in-1 card reader) via amazon reviews
01:32
< Yossarian>
I pointed him this way because #phoronix on freenode is not the place to ask a question like that, place is dead as a beaten horse
01:33
< Yossarian>
but british are snobby, so, there is that
01:38
<@Reiv>
...o...k...
01:39
< Yossarian>
I recommended and gave him the advice verdule gave him, essentially
01:39
<@Reiv>
Sure. Do note this channel really /is/ mostly for code, programming, and electronics in related ventures.
01:39
< Yossarian>
if he remembers QuickBasic being on nearly every Microsoft machine he's probably a fuddy-duddy
01:39
< Yossarian>
I told 'em.
01:40
< Yossarian>
Mostly code but topics of other technological topics pop up.
01:40
<@Reiv>
Right, but I wouldn't advertise for that latter part unless they have a very particular question they're searching for help on.

< ErikMesoy>
Opus Magnum 50% off, I recall it was popular here?
09:38
<~Vorntastic>
It is good game
09:38
<@TheWatcher>
Indeed.
09:42
<~Vorntastic>
It's the best zachtronics game imo
09:43
<@TheWatcher>
Much to my shame, I've only played spacechem and opus magnum, but OM is definitely the superior one
09:52
< ErikMesoy>
SpaceChem reminded me of the PHP Hammer: it's not just a limited toolbox to play with, it felt like a cruddy toolbox where I was crying out for improved tools.

<&McMartin>
OM is best ZT game
10:18
<&McMartin>
Has more tools than it looks like it has
10:19
<&McMartin>
But if you need The Best Tools Exapunks is the least restricted

<&McMartin>
I know they think this
22:05
<&McMartin>
Or that some of them do
22:05
<&McMartin>
But the reason I never touch the stuff is that I know full well the skillset I'd need to not fuck things up severely, and I don't have it.
22:06
<&[R]>
Web has so many weird gotchas that other forms of coding don't really have I think
22:07
<&[R]>
Then add that you're probably coding in 2-3 languages simultaniously, for different targets that form a cohesive whole, and that you're very likely also doing SQL which has even more interesting gotchas and is another language in the mix
22:08
<&McMartin>
Yep
22:08
<&McMartin>
And that's before you get into the parts where you need actual domain knowledge
22:09
<&McMartin>
There's a reason large-scale network engineers think everyone else is an ignorant fool, and it's not *just* because they think compilers are magical boxes that are just doing the same things people did by hand 40 years ago~
22:11
<&McMartin>
The counterargument re: not fucking things up severely is 'well, when did *that* stop anybody'" and they are of course absolutely right
22:11

Which is why I do have a single JS application that does something entertaining. http://michaelcmartin.github.io/megaforge/

It's not really appropriate for polite company.
22:22 * Emmy inserts rude imperial English jokes here

<@Tamber>
English *is* the joke.
23:14

True
23:14

but if english is the joke, then what is american (english)!? XD
