[23:01] <Chaos> yah, this will be a big help to me once i finally get time to delve into it[23:01] <Chaos> extension dev, i mean[23:02] <LB> the reference will be a big task for me[23:02] <LB> but I know it will be more useful than the stuff in the MMF2SDK help file[23:02] <LB> which has been the dominate helpful thing in the past[23:02] <Chaos> yah[23:05] <LB> I've had so many problems with GitHub Flavored MarkDown simply breaking for no reason that I've had to do almost all the pages in MediaWiki[23:05] <LB> which is fine because I'm more familar with MediaWiki[23:05] <LB> I just with MarkDown was stable[23:05] <Chaos> yeah, github still confuses me a bit[23:05] <Chaos> the layout doesnt sit well with me, or the navigation[23:06] <LB> I've noticed the layout and navigation improving since I first joined[23:06] <LB> but it could definitely do with more explanation than blog posts and breif Q&As and full reference manuals[23:07] <LB> blog posts: not enough info; Q&As: way too brief; full reference manual: too tech-oriented[23:07] <LB> I've had to learn a lot of stuff through trial and error[23:08] <Chaos> yeah, i tried to mavigate Phi's github and got miserably lost. lol[23:09] <LB> omg[23:09] <LB> Phi's GitHub is a nightmare[23:09] <Chaos> lol yeah.[23:09] <LB> it's the main reason I've not been contributing[23:09] <Chaos> you can see why im skeptical about it.
[23:09] <LB> even the code is a horrible emss[23:09] <LB> *mess[23:10] <LB> Phi always seems to think he knows what he's doing but to others (at least to me) he looks like he's muddling around and trying to act professional[23:10] <liquixcat> no no[23:10] <LB> I appreciate his hard work but it seems to lack good qualities[23:10] <liquixcat> Everyone sees him that way[23:10] <LB> lol[23:11] <Chaos> ^ this[23:11] <liquixcat> In his defense, he tries[23:11] <liquixcat> better than most[23:11] <LB> that's what I appreciate about him[23:12] <LB> he's willing to put in the effort even though he's not very good at it[23:12] <Chaos> yeah[23:12] <LB> I personally can't do that[23:12] <liquixcat> Yes[23:12] <LB> he'll be successful in life, evem if he continues to do things in non-standard, dangerous, and sloppy ways[23:12] <LB> *even[23:13] <LB> with me, I have to rely on luck at getting a dream job[23:13] <Chaos> and that alone might be why he does well.
discover something awesome completely at random
[23:13] <LB> programming pssionately until my boss tells me I need to go home[23:13] <liquixcat> If he continues on his lonely path, than his informal coding styles won't matter[23:13] <liquixcat> so long as he can read his writing, it's ok[23:13] <LB> oh his code is readable[23:13] <LB> it's just very obvious it is bad code[23:13] <liquixcat> but he never follows any style guides on anything I've seen of his[23:13] <LB> style?[23:14] <LB> forget his style, that's not the problem[23:14] <liquixcat> and instead of researching better practices he just does it himself[23:14] <LB> it's his design choices that are the problem[23:14] <liquixcat> like, for example, me building a python dialog popup... even though one exists[23:14] <liquixcat> he'd do that simply because he edidn't know the other exists[23:14] <LB> even when I tell him the 'correct' and 'recommended' ways to do things, or that what he's doing is deprecated or won't always work, he just makes an excuse[23:14] <liquixcat> I did it for other reasons though lol[23:15] <liquixcat> Although, I can't say much because I have no formal training in programming[23:15] <liquixcat> but I work with someone who does and infact teaches it professionally[23:15] <LB> I've had formal informal training in Java[23:15] <liquixcat> And I follow design principles in OO and style guides for Python[23:16] <liquixcat> I have a fairly good understanding on how to code as a team basically[23:16] <liquixcat> Phi...not so much[23:16] <LB> I basically skipped CompSci 1 and wen straight to CompSci 2, went to many competitions, took the AP test and got a 5, and am now in CompSci 3[23:16] <LB> *wnt[23:16] <LB> gah[23:16] <LB> *went[23:16] <LB> lol[23:17] <LB> if there's one thing Phi's better at than me, it's making good excuses and not making typos[23:17] <LB> and yes, that's two things[23:17] <Chaos> lol[23:17] <liquixcat> Also in Phi's defense, he 'knows' C++[23:17] <liquixcat> I do not lol[23:17] <LB> well if he "knows" C++ and you don't[23:17] <LB> well[23:17] <LB> you're just plain knowledgeless[23:17] <LB> (in C++)[23:17] <liquixcat> It is in my opinion that C++ is useless to me for the time being[23:18] <liquixcat> I know this can be argued to death, but I'm informed enough to think my opinion is at least mostly correct[23:18] <LB> liquixcat, languages are used because they are the line of best fit for a graph of the solution[23:18] <LB> so no one language is better than the other[23:18] <liquixcat> High level access with minimal boiler plate code and quick turn around from discuss to operational is what I need[23:18] <liquixcat> C++ doesn't do that[23:18] <liquixcat> Python does[23:19] <LB> its like saying f(x) = x^2 is better than f(x) = |x|[23:19] <liquixcat> Exactly[23:19] <liquixcat> And when all else fails..... ctypes
[23:19] <LB> I'm really liking Dylan[23:19] <LB> which Python was influenced by[23:19] <LB> unfortunately I can't get a linker working for it so I can't test any code I write[23:20] <LB> but it's a great language[23:20] <liquixcat> I'm not gonna lie, I've gone ever so slightly 'non-pythonic' with some Windows DLL's[23:20] <LB> and I like it better than python honestly[23:20] <liquixcat> BUT, incase of xplat, I got that covered
[23:20] <liquixcat> Well... not for OS X...[23:20] <liquixcat> but...screw OS X[23:20] <LB> http://opendylan.org/#liquixcat[23:20] Mathias has entered the room
[23:20] <liquixcat> Non of my users will be using that pile anyways[23:20] <LB> Hello, mathias![23:21] <LB> we were just discussing Python and Dylan[23:21] <liquixcat> Dylan, eh?[23:21] <LB> I like Dylan more than Python in terms of coolness[23:21] <liquixcat> Coolness is like the attraction to girls[23:21] <LB> but python is more practical[23:21] <liquixcat> useability and compatibility is infinitely more marriage material[23:22] <liquixcat> example: Access to low-level DLL, ODBC, MySQL and a proper and well documented UI library or framework[23:23] <liquixcat> can't stress well documented enough[23:23] <liquixcat> I push tkinter to its knees, and it always comes back a fighting because its documentation is superb[23:24] <liquixcat> lambda, ternary (Although Python basically doesn't have this), polymorphism and multiple inheritance aswell[23:24] <LB> Ding Ding Ding Dylan![23:25] <LB> there are so many people[23:25] <LB> SO MANY[23:25] <LB> that believe there is NO good use[23:25] <liquixcat> It's too late to switch now, nearly 10K LOC in Python now... but for tinkering at home[23:25] <LB> for multiple inheritance[23:25] <liquixcat> I'll take a look[23:25] <LB> well[23:25] <LB> I would like to OBJECT[23:25] LB grabs a link
[23:25] <liquixcat> My Company denies your objection[23:26] <LB> http://opendylan.org/books/drm/Collection_Classes[23:26] <liquixcat> to be perfectly honest... multiple inheritance is at most just convenient[23:26] <liquixcat> I don't think you ever need it[23:26] <LB> isn't C a convenience over writing machine code?[23:26] <liquixcat> Even in Java you can just inherit something that inherits something[23:26] <liquixcat> Yes, LB, it is[23:26] <LB> liquixcat the relationship is different[23:26] RickyG has entered the room
[23:27] <LB> O[23:27] <liquixcat> Which is why I'm saying I want it[23:27] <LB> M[23:27] <LB> G[23:27] <LB> it's RickyG[23:27] <liquixcat> not that it's necessary lol[23:27] <RickyG> LB[23:27] <RickyG> i love you man[23:27] <RickyG> bro hug[23:27] <LB> ?[23:27] LB bro hugs RG
[23:27] LB stops hugging
[23:27] <liquixcat> I don't get it, are you for or against multi-inheritance[23:27] <LB> for[23:27] <liquixcat> ah, good[23:27] <liquixcat> yes[23:28] <LB> well, I'm mainly against people who say it has no uses[23:28] <liquixcat> Its use is convenience[23:28] <liquixcat> as far as I've come across[23:28] <LB> exactly![23:28] LB grabs another link
[23:28] <liquixcat> It's rare I need it, but I'm glad I have it
[23:29] <liquixcat> Does Dylan have decorators? I like them lol...[23:29] <LB> I don't know[23:29] <RickyG> i require an  alpha tester[23:29] <LB> I've not finished reading the DRM[23:29] <LB> what are decorators, liquixcat?[23:30] <liquixcat> It's just a way to put a function into a template of another function[23:30] <liquixcat> You might ask, whats the point[23:30] <liquixcat> and.... you got me... idk[23:30] <liquixcat> its cool though[23:31] <LB> oh yeah[23:31] <LB> Dylan has that[23:31] LB grabs link
[23:31] <liquixcat> LOL[23:31] <LB> http://opendylan.org/documentation/intro-dylan/methods-generic-functions.html#local-methods[23:32] <LB> there you go liquixcat[23:32] <LB> second example[23:32] <liquixcat> I dislike this syntax[23:32] <LB> very lispy[23:33] <liquixcat> does it have iterators and generators?[23:33] <LB> yes to iterators[23:33] <liquixcat> types*[23:33] <LB> everything in dylan is essentially a first-class object[23:34] <LB> CLOS, ALGOL, Scheme, EuLisp all influenced Dylan, Dylan influenced Goo, Python, Ruby[23:34] <liquixcat> so is Pythons everything[23:34] <LB> what does that statement mean?[23:34] <liquixcat> I mean to say 'almost' everything in Python is also a first-class object[23:34] <LB> yeah[23:35] <LB> http://opendylan.org/documentation/intro-dylan/expressions-variables.html#the-nature-of-variables[23:35] <liquixcat> Interesting[23:35] <liquixcat> so how to do bind to the value of x[23:35] <liquixcat> instead of x itself[23:36] <LB> you can't bind to x itself[23:36] <LB> you can only bind to whatever x is bound to[23:37] <LB> like Java, Dylan has no ability to make the basic swap(a, b) function[23:37] <LB> liquixcat do you use nil a lot in python?[23:38] <liquixcat> Only in sql[23:38] <LB> good[23:38] <LB> "Note that Dylan variables must be bound to a particular value when they are declared. In the name of type safety and implementation efficiency, every variable must refer to some well-defined object."[23:38] <LB> no such thing asd nil, null, undefined, etc[23:38] <LB> *as[23:39] <LB> anyway back to the point[23:39] <liquixcat> The way Python works doesn't really require empty variables[23:39] <LB> MI is a convenience[23:39] <liquixcat> although I do create empty arrays[23:39] <LB> but people think it has no uses[23:39] <LB> so they find inconvenient ways to say MI is not needed[23:39] <LB> http://www.cplusplus.com/forum/lounge/80630/#msg434080 part 1[23:39] <LB> http://www.cplusplus.com/forum/lounge/80630/2/#msg434256 part 2[23:40] <LB> http://www.cplusplus.com/forum/lounge/80630/2/#msg434457 part 3[23:40] <liquixcat> Why are people argueing over such a useless thing to argue about[23:40] <LB> http://www.cplusplus.com/forum/lounge/80630/3/#msg436965 part 4 (the evil part)[23:40] <liquixcat> It's like argueing about ashtrays being put into cars when you don't smoke[23:40] <LB> liquixcat I started the discussion[23:40] <liquixcat> who cares... it's there for smokers...[23:41] <LB> because I wanted to learn[23:41] <liquixcat> Oh, wow you did LOL[23:41] <LB>
[23:41] <liquixcat> An issue I have with Python is Public, Private and Protected don't exist[23:41] <LB> Mathias[23:41] <LB> Mathias Mathias[23:41] <LB> liquixcat just complained about the lack of evilness[23:42] <liquixcat> Actually, to be frank, it's not my complaint, although I am tired of hearing about it from the co-developer who is old-school[23:42] <LB> haha[23:42] <liquixcat> I remember argueing about it not being needed last time I was on CC infact[23:42] <liquixcat> Its the same thing as multi-inheritance though[23:43] <liquixcat> I mean, it might be useful to put it in there for those who want it[23:43] <liquixcat> but at the same time, Python is very strict on those kind of suggestions[23:43] <Chaos> http://i.imgur.com/AqgVE.jpg[23:43] <LB> I think it should be "public" and "implementation-defined", with the latter giving a warning when you access such members[23:43] <liquixcat> I think i said that.....[23:43] <LB> lol Chaos[23:44] <liquixcat> LOL Chaos[23:44] <LB> liquix I don't recall you saying that[23:44] <liquixcat> I know I've said that[23:44] <liquixcat> Phi was arguieng about it with me[23:44] <liquixcat> And... you were there....[23:44] <liquixcat> or maybe Looki[23:44] <LB>
[23:44] <LB> well I've forgotten it an reinvented it as my own idea[23:44] <LB> you've performed inception on me[23:45] <LB> *and[23:45] <liquixcat> Meh, was just a tiny script I made[23:45] <LB>
[23:45] <liquixcat> import inception made it easier, I love Python[23:45] <LB> import antigravity[23:45] <liquixcat> lol[23:45] <liquixcat> Even non-Python developers know about that[23:45] <liquixcat> gotta love xkcd[23:45] <LB> indeed[23:46] <LB> it's a visual blog of a person's mind[23:46] <LB> what is there not to enjoy[23:46] <liquixcat> Yes but it seems his filter is removed[23:46] <LB> definitely[23:46] <liquixcat> when I try to put words to my thoughts.... it comes out as murmurs[23:46] <Chaos> my comes out as wierd japanese porno.[23:46] LB just gets overwhelmed trying to account for every aspect of his thoughts
[23:46] <liquixcat> Indeed[23:47] <liquixcat> Actually, the big problem is losing track of what i was thinking before I could say it all[23:47] <liquixcat> Before I know it I'm on a tangent that literally had nothing to do with it[23:47] <liquixcat> Then I'm stuck there thinking: "Did this make sense in my head?"[23:48] <liquixcat> I read this very long, well thought out piece on Compiled and scripted languages[23:48] <liquixcat> and which fall under which[23:49] <liquixcat> He made a very good point, which I fail to remember, but basically.....[23:49] <liquixcat> The language _you_ are using is compiled, the language the other guy is using is _scripted_[23:49] <liquixcat> oops... didn't mean to put emphasis on scripted[23:50] <liquixcat> I said this to my local Java 'expert' (which consequently makes him a security expert aswell ba-zinga)[23:50] <liquixcat> he laughed....as he should[23:52] <liquixcat> Oops, I've killed the conversation....[23:52] <LB> sorry was afk[23:53] <liquixcat> Aren't you a self-proclaimed autistic[23:54] <LB> yes[23:54] <LB> Asperger's[23:54] <liquixcat> What makes you think that?[23:54] <LB> and ADHD[23:54] <LB> I've been tested for both[23:54] <LB> :p[23:54] <liquixcat> You do tedious left brained repetitive work in programming and you think you're deficient in attention?[23:56] <LB> yes[23:56] <LB> I need medicine to focus[23:56] <LB> or I need to be tired to focus[23:56] <liquixcat> Ridillin?[23:56] <LB> no[23:56] <LB> FocalinXR[23:56] <liquixcat> tired to focus.....[23:56] <liquixcat> o[23:57] <liquixcat> my[23:57] <liquixcat> f'n....[23:57] <LB> ?[23:57] <liquixcat> god...[23:57] <liquixcat> THATS WHY[23:57] <liquixcat> I sleep less and I do WAY better, I learn better, I code better[23:57] <liquixcat> everything makes more sense[23:57] <LB> yeah haha[23:57] <liquixcat> I just thought of this yesterday![23:57] <LB> do your best coding at night?[23:57] <liquixcat> oh yes definitely... or when I get like 5 hours sleep[23:58] <LB> the reason is that when you're tired your brain releases chemicals to slow your movement[23:58] <LB> this is the stuff that causes sleep paralysis[23:58] Chaos has left the room
[23:58] <LB> but it also slows thinking[23:58] <LB> which, for hyperthinking people, helps them focus[23:59] <liquixcat> wow...[23:59] <liquixcat> you have no idea how much sense that made to me[23:59] <liquixcat> I was purposely sleeping 4 - 5 hours a night so I could work better[00:00] <LB> Einstein only slept 45 minutes/night[00:02] <liquixcat> Interesting[00:02] <liquixcat> well thanks for that[00:02] <liquixcat> Works over, see ya later[00:02] liquixcat has left the room
