<0> if I do an fseek(file,0,SEEK_END) and then an feof(file)
<0> shouldn't feof(file) return true?
<1> no, why?
<2> salec: feof() signals end-of-file once an operation has tried and failed.
<0> ohhh
<0> so if you seek to the edge it won't fire..but if i seeked to the edge and then tried to read that would cause it to be true?
<1> in other words, feof simply gives you the eof status flag of the filehandle
<3> salec: yes
<1> read operations set this flag, fseek clears it
<3> ok, i arranged to go to cinema with the girl from dating site
<3> it's tuesday
<3> the dating project is moving along
<4> *sigh*
<3> she's not a bot
<4> My girlfirend used to shop at a small store I worked at
<3> i don't see any ppl at work
<4> Well, she and I ended up running into each other online
<3> except same 3 faces every day
<3> heh
<4> Place I'm going to go work at possibly, I'd be working with a bunch of WoW gamers in a DC/NOC
<3> sounds nice
<4> I guess
<4> One of them is a high school buddy of mine =]
<3> that's what phone interview was about ?
<4> Yeah.
<4> I got asked questions about Redhat, Windows, FreeBSD, and general hardware.
<4> I did well but flubbed a question on RAID
<3> coulpe of my patches ended up this week in the git, the VCS that kernel uses
<5> did you say that RAID5 is where all the hdds explode?
<4> LordZid: No, he asked me how many drivs are needed for RAID Ten
<3> aedi: what was the question ?
<5> 10!?
<5> I'd say... 40
<4> I've never heard it called tha tbefore, he meant RAID 1+0 or "One zero"
<5> oh
<3> ah
<5> retard
<4> Me or him?
<3> what's the correct answer btw ?
<4> 4
<4> 2 pairs of stripes, mirrored to each other.
<3> i'd never guess that ...
<5> "2 or more disks that are mirrored"
<4> LordZid: No, it's 4.
<2> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Batman_%28m***_measure%29 <- No wonder he can fly.
<5> 2 * 2 = 4 mate
<4> LordZid: Yes. Not "2 or mor edisks"
<5> THAT ARE MIRRORED
<6> I'm looking at the hash function presented in the K&R book. int seed=131; hash=0 i=0; for(i=0; i<len; str++, i++){ hash = (hash*seed)+(*str);} return (hash & 0x7FFFFFFF); two questions, what does "seed" do and why was 131 chosen, also what does that return statement do?
<5> 2 + mirrors = 4
<5> stop quoting HALF of what I say then telling me it's wrong
<4> LordZid: Well, it's horrible wording anyway
<4> LordZid: It's a raid stripe of two raid mirrors.
<4> So 4.
<3> ncaller: the purpose of & in the return is to make result non-negative
<5> that's too technical for me
<4> No other answer. It's 4.
<4> Well, this is a technical position =]
<3> boy
<3> demand managerial responsibilities
<4> Oh, and I flubbed a few Windows questions (Didn't know what things were called)
<5> got examples?
<3> tell us tell us
<4> LordZid: What's teh MMC snap in for configuring tape backups.
<5> **** knows
<4> Exactly
<4> Oh, I also forgot about chkconfig in RedHat
<5> -bash: chkconfig: command not found
<5> I dun gots it
<3> did you mention that you learn quickly ?
<4> My solution was to change permissions on stuff in /etc/rc*.d/
<4> LordZid: RedHat?
<5> nope! :)
<4> Yeah, it's a redhat thing.
<5> is there a comment that'll tell you your distro?
<3> chkconfig is /sbin/chkconfig
<5> uname doesn't give me crap
<4> LordZid: You should know what distro you installed.
<3> LordZip: no
<5> I do
<5> slackware 10.2 with 2.4.31
<4> hh
<4> Darwin panna.local 8.6.2 Darwin Kernel Version 8.6.2: Thu Apr 13 18:48:29 PDT 2006; root:xnu-792.9.59.obj~1/RELEASE_I386 i386 i386
<5> chkdupexe is the closest I have to chkconfig
<5> chkdupexe - find duplicate executables
<5> awesome
<4> heh, Darwin naboo.galaxy.local 8.6.0 Darwin Kernel Version 8.6.0: Tue Mar 7 16:58:48 PST 2006; root:xnu-792.6.70.obj~1/RELEASE_PPC Power Macintosh powerpc
<4> PPC is .2 behind
<5> it's all just sbin / bin stuff damn
<3> 'uname' doesn't show distro type because uname shows the kernel type, that's all
<5> is there a command to find all files that I can run which are setuid root? I wanna pwn my boxz0r
<4> LordZid: find.
<5> params bitch
<5> -group users -user root <-- random guess, I don't know how linux works
<5> hell, i can't even get 'su' to give me colours
<3> **** this chair's back is breaking under me
<3> and i thought this is solid one
<5> root bin ?
<5> they seem nice
<4> that's not setuid.
<3> you need -perms or something
<4> -perm -1000 or something.
<3> Lord: why do you need to hax your box, you forgot root paswd ?
<5> no, I wanna hax it from the inside :P
<5> just to see how badly I fail it
<4> local exploit?
<3> boot single-user and pwn iot
<5> i'm guessing 9/1
<5> (9 times more than certain fail)
<5> du: cannot access `hast': No such file or directory
<3> i have difficulty deciding whether i shall go to sleep this night or stay awake
<3> Lord:try one of those net-breaking game
<5> I did years ago
<2> MishAlone: I tried going to sleep, I woke up three hours later after dreaming that MacGyver was living in my apartment and was an alien who along with his alien friends made a movie with them running around after taking off their human faces.
<2> MishAlone: Then I woke up and one of my monitors showed said movie. And then I really woke up.
<5> you'd think 100mbit would be enough to stream a video over, but NOOO
<3> hind: now you're afraid of going to sleep again ?
<2> Yup.
<2> I hate it when I dream that I wake up.
<3> i don't have night dreams recent days
<3> yeah, i had that, too
<2> Except when I realize it, of course.
<5> 2090*2090 I get.. hmm
<5> mplayer needs a server mode
<4> LordZid: server mode?
<5> yea
<5> mplayer -s video.avi
<5> then anyone on the network can do mplayer 192.168.1.1
<5> and watch
<4> Oh, you mean like VLC? =]
<5> I'll wait for mplayer, I only have one video on my other machine :p
<5> not very
<5> trust me
<4> I didn't think so
<7> Anyone know the 'secret' behind drawing 2D game tiles that tile well?
<5> the framerate wasn't terrible
<5> but no audio or bitdepth :P
<4> Ah, true
<7> Similar to how you can tile certain images on your desktop wallpaper and they look good all tiled together.
<2> Teckla: Not actually redrawing the entire screen?
<2> Teckla: Oh, you mean creating the tiles?
<7> Yeah. It seems REALLY hard to create tiles that tile well.
<5> Teckla: just don't put anything against both edges
<5> else they'll touch :P
