| 08:31 | <&jerith> | https://adventofcode.com/ starts tomorrow! :-D |
| 08:32 | <&jerith> | Anyone participating is welcome to join #aocspoilers for (careful) discussion of problems/solutions/etc. |
| 08:33 | <&jerith> | Continuing my theme of using a different language every year, I'll be writing Clojure this time around. |
| 08:34 | <&jerith> | (Previously I've done Rust, Elixir, and OCaml.) |
| 08:37 | <~Vorntastic> | I never finished the previous two :( |
| 08:39 | <&jerith> | Did you enjoy the bits you did, though? |
| 08:39 | <&jerith> | That's the important part. |
| 08:44 | <~Vorntastic> | Yes |
| 09:02 | <&McMartin> | Last year I did everything in C and it was surprisingly non-awful. |
| 09:19 | <~Vorntastic> | I keep intending on picking up C#. Perhaps |
| 09:26 | | Kindamoody[zZz] is now known as Kindamoody |
| 09:30 | <&McMartin> | Rust would make a certain amount of sense for me. |
| 09:30 | <&McMartin> | Emacs Lisp would be the comedy option. |
| 09:41 | <&jerith> | I wouldn't recommend trying to learn Rust by tomorrow if you aren't already comfortable writing nontrivial code in it. |
| 09:59 | <&McMartin> | I've written a single nontrivial program in it |
| 09:59 | <&McMartin> | Whether that counts as "comfortable" I dunno |
| 10:00 | <&jerith> | It probably does. |
| 10:01 | <&jerith> | I've been very happy with `nom` (v5 in particular, because that has far less macro invasiveness) for parsing. |
| 10:19 | | * abudhabi is trying to compile the open source remake of Colonization. |
| 10:19 | <@abudhabi> | (Well, one of them.) |
| 10:19 | <@abudhabi> | https://pastebin.com/raw/DVxWYTWe |
| 10:19 | <@abudhabi> | Any idea what I'm missing? |
| 10:22 | <&jerith> | Does src/ext/ext.hpp exist? |
| 10:22 | <@abudhabi> | Nope. No idea why it doesn't exist. |
| 10:22 | <&jerith> | I guess that's the problem. |
| 10:22 | <@abudhabi> | The directory exists, but it's empty. |
| 10:23 | <&jerith> | Where does this code live? |
| 10:23 | <@abudhabi> | https://github.com/institution/cc94 |
| 10:24 | <&jerith> | Oh, src/ext is a submodule. |
| 10:25 | <@abudhabi> | Anything I can do about that? |
| 10:25 | <&jerith> | Try `git submodule init`? |
| 10:25 | <&jerith> | I don't remember all the submodule wrangling commands. |
| 10:25 | <&jerith> | I've successfully excised them from all the projects I work on. |
| 10:26 | <@abudhabi> | `Submodule 'src/ext' (git+ssh://git@github.com/institution/ext.git) registered for path 'src/ext'` |
| 10:28 | <@abudhabi> | git submodule update got me some stuff and a new error! |
| 10:31 | <&jerith> | Progress! |
| 10:31 | <@abudhabi> | https://pastebin.com/raw/T6et2XQi |
| 10:31 | <&jerith> | Submodules are high-maintenance unreliable footguns. |
| 10:33 | <&jerith> | The revision of ext referenced in the submodule is a few commits behind the repo. |
| 10:33 | <&jerith> | So it's possible you need a newer version. |
| 10:34 | <&jerith> | `(cd src/ext; git checkout master)` will (probably) get you the latest revision of the submodule. |
| 10:37 | <&jerith> | Yeah, that's likely the cause of the first error. The latest commit in the ext repo: https://github.com/institution/ext/commit/7f89102a6f548d5be908ab12c4e816af828bfdf4 |
| 10:37 | <@abudhabi> | I did that and pulled, and it said that it was up to date with master. |
| 10:38 | <&jerith> | Did the build error change? |
| 10:38 | <@abudhabi> | It did not. |
| 10:39 | <@abudhabi> | Can I check what version of the submodule I'm on? |
| 10:39 | <&jerith> | `(cd src/ext; git status)` |
| 10:40 | <@abudhabi> | https://pastebin.com/raw/jkHM1MhU |
| 10:40 | <@abudhabi> | That looks like 3 commits behind. |
| 10:40 | <&jerith> | (In case you're not familiar with the syntax: the parens mean "run this in a subshell", so we can cd without worrying about coming back.) |
| 10:40 | <@abudhabi> | I grasped the intent! |
| 10:41 | <&jerith> | I find it much easier to do the subshell thing than cd back and forth or open another terminal. |
| 10:42 | | * jerith clones the repo locally to see what's going on. |
| 10:45 | <@abudhabi> | This is after I did `git pull origin master` on the submodule: https://pastebin.com/raw/bVcmTfEq |
| 10:45 | <&jerith> | Yeah, that looks like you have the right version of the submodule now. |
| 10:46 | <&jerith> | I guess glm is an undocumented dependency. |
| 10:46 | <&jerith> | (Assuming you acquired the documented ones.) |
| 10:48 | <@abudhabi> | Well, I did follow the instructions for linux native compiling. |
| 10:48 | <&jerith> | Looks like https://glm.g-truc.net/0.9.9/index.html |
| 10:48 | <&jerith> | `apt search libglm-dev` perhaps? |
| 10:50 | <&jerith> | If you have that, I guess try install it and see if it helps. |
| 10:50 | <@abudhabi> | Installed. |
| 10:50 | <@abudhabi> | The compiling is proceeding. |
| 10:50 | <&jerith> | FWIW, this project has very few markers that inspire confidence in me. |
| 10:51 | <&jerith> | And several that indicate low quality. |
| 10:51 | <@abudhabi> | Was it the use of submodules that tipped you off? |
| 10:51 | <@abudhabi> | Or the undeclared dependancies? |
| 10:52 | <@abudhabi> | (GLM wasn't the only one.) |
| 10:52 | <@abudhabi> | https://pastebin.com/raw/P2kiVASZ |
| 10:53 | <&jerith> | Single developer, terrible commit messages, random code in a separate repo for who knows what reason, incorrect use of submodules, undocumented deps, README much older than code, etc. |
| 10:55 | <&jerith> | Many of my personal projects have the first and last in that list. They'd probably have a few others as well, except I tend to use languages that ship with dependency management tooling. |
| 10:59 | <&jerith> | Maybe comment out the calc_align function in src/ext? |
| 10:59 | <&jerith> | I'm guessing that's the one that's more likely to be wrong. |
| 11:00 | <&jerith> | Or read them both and make a more informed decision. :-) |
| 11:04 | <@abudhabi> | Commenting it out seems to have helped. |
| 11:07 | <@abudhabi> | It compiled, but won't run. |
| 11:10 | <@abudhabi> | Commenting out the other one makes it fail to compile. |
| 11:10 | <&jerith> | Sad, but unsurprising. |
| 11:10 | <@abudhabi> | OK, I'm done with this. |
| 11:11 | <@abudhabi> | Thanks for your help! |
| 11:11 | <&jerith> | You're welcome! |
| 11:11 | <&McMartin> | calc_align should not be a thing people use. |
| 11:11 | <@abudhabi> | I really wish the Java version was more similar to the original. |
| 11:11 | <&McMartin> | This sounds suspiciously like they're pulling ABI-hacking bullshit that's specific to 32-bit Linux or something. |
| 11:11 | <&jerith> | You probably lasted about as long as I would have, assuming I didn't filter it out on the first glance over the repo. |
| 11:12 | <@abudhabi> | It really feels very different from the original game. And the original game could use some tweaks, like getting the pathfinder fixed, and removing limits on amount of units, and score overflow, etc, etc. |

| 20:46 | <@abudhabi> | TheWatcher: How do I disable wordpress' autocorrection of HTML? |
| 20:46 | <@abudhabi> | I know HTML better than it does. |
| 20:48 | | * abudhabi installs Don't Muck My Markup. |
| 20:52 | <@abudhabi> | Hrm, that didn't work. |
| 20:59 | <@abudhabi> | It's infuriating. |
| 20:59 | <@abudhabi> | I WANT THAT <BR> YOU BITCH |
| 20:59 | <&McMartin> | It autoswaps two carriage returns for br |
| 21:00 | <@ErikMesoy> | <br/> ? |
| 21:00 | <&McMartin> | It also double-escapes < which corrupts the hell out of posted code you later edit |
| 21:00 | <@abudhabi> | No amount of carriage returns seem to insert a linebreak in what I'm editing. |
| 21:00 | <@abudhabi> | ErikMesoy: Tried it. |
| 21:00 | <&McMartin> | that is odd |
| 21:01 | <@abudhabi> | I want PRECISELY WHAT I WROTE argh. |
| 21:01 | <&McMartin> | Can't you just not use a CMS~ |
| 21:01 | <@abudhabi> | No, I like most of using a CMS. |
| 21:02 | <@abudhabi> | Except shit like this. |
| 21:02 | <&[R]> | I was going to suggest that not using Wordpress would be the best solution here |
| 21:02 | <@abudhabi> | No, I don't want to build the entire site from scratch like some sort of caveman. |
| 21:02 | <&[R]> | But felt that would be rude |
| 21:03 | <&[R]> | Interestingly, Wordpress isn't the only game in town |
| 21:03 | <&[R]> | So not using it does not mean you aren't using a CMS |
| 21:03 | <@abudhabi> | Right. |
| 21:04 | <&[R]> | Much like how not using systemd doesnbt mean you're using sysvinit |
| 21:05 | <@abudhabi> | OK, there. Installing TinyMCE Advanced and checking the non-removal of BR and P solved my issue. |
| 21:05 | <@ErikMesoy> | abudhabi: <br class=""> ? |
| 21:50 | | * TheWatcher readsup |
| 21:51 | <@TheWatcher> | abudhabi: https://wordpress.org/plugins/dont-muck-my-markup/ is the method I use |
| 21:52 | <@abudhabi> | That one didn't work for me. |
| 21:54 | <@TheWatcher> | You need to turn it on from the settings sidebar when editing, or set it on site-wide, it doesn't do anything by default |
| 21:54 | <@TheWatcher> | But if you have something that works *shrug* |
| 21:54 | <@TheWatcher> | TMTOWTDI. |
| 21:54 | <@abudhabi> | I did, and it didn't do anything for my problem. |
| 21:54 | <@abudhabi> | I'm glad that's over with. |
