<0> ahh, ok
<0> what's the deal on gambling in the US?
<1> Hi, zshzn .
<2> hello, cowboy
<1> rutski89: What do you mean?
<3> I think the tactics to get them off your back are more of a crime than the not paying
<1> zshzn: :P
<0> If i sit down with a few friends and play poker for keeps, is it illegal?
<1> rutski89: Yup.
<2> de jure, yes. de facto, no
<4> rutski89: quite likely
<0> wow, why!?
<4> rutski89: gambling is illegal
<1> rutski89: Because no one is there to turn you in for a crime.
<5> which is faster: $str =~ /bob/, or index( $str, 'bob' ) ?
<1> rutski89: If they are not your friends, likely you will be charged.
<4> Hence the only legal casinos here are state owned :)
<6> rutski89: gambling laws are all by state, so it depends on where you are.
<0> but what's so bad about it
<1> ofer0: $str
<6> are you asking a law to make sense?
<5> ek, ?
<6> hahahahaha
<0> I mean, why would a state want to make it illegal
<7> Godel trumps your law!
<1> ofer0: You're going by variables, correct?
<4> rutski89: because people in debt aren't helpful for the economy
<1> beth: Haha. So true.
<5> ek, i want to check if 'bob' is found in $str
<0> ahh, makes sense
<1> A law making sense... Quite cl***ic.
<4> rutski89: especially if they keep getting deeper in debt
<8> _omer: you should look carefully at the DSN in the ODBC perldoc
<0> Ikarus: wait... but their debtors are thus more helpful to the economy; so what's the difference?
<4> goverment owned casinos are still the best idea ever, any profit goes into state funding
<1> ofer0: In what context though?
<9> Does anyone use something like #define LOWER_LEFT_CORNER 0x01 in perl?
<0> Ikarus heh, yea
<10> Khisanth : from where I can get this perldoc?
<8> fattening up the politicians?
<8> perldoc DBD::ODBC of course
<9> Or should I just do my $LOWER_LEFT_CORNER = 0x01
<4> and that funding pays for keeping the heavily indebted working (the solving of bankruptcy is expensive)
<2> AI_coder: this is Perl, damn it!
<11> AI_coder: There's a use constant pragma if you really want it
<2> AI_coder: you could use constant; if you want
<3> AI_coder: use constant { LOWER_LEFT_CORNER => 0x01 }
<1> beth: You're from the U.S.?
<6> yeah
<1> beth: Ah. Which part?
<3> laws which don't make sense are a large step up from government that enforce things that aren't written laws
<6> northeasternish. I grew up in Pittsburgh, PA, and am now living in upstate New York.
<3> count yer blessings
<1> beth: Ah. Groovy. I'm in Denver, CO.
<1> I like Pitts though. Big fan of the hockey team. :P
<3> ek: do they have any nightclubs in that town called the MHC?
<6> you sound so excited to meet Americans! Don't you live near a bunch of them? :)
<1> peterS: MHC? What's the actual name? I haven't heard of anything like that. However, "clubbing" is something I'm not too accustomed to.
<6> hey, speaking of this country...
<3> mile high club, I mean
<6> BOOM! BOOM! FLASH! BOOM!
<1> beth: Me?
<1> I live near plenty. However, in real life, we never talk.
<12> beth: oddly enough i didn't hear any of those tonight
<6> (it's the 4th over here)
<1> So, to find someone online that is from the U.S. is fascinating.
<9> peterS: Thanks.
<1> :P
<13> ooh. It is here too.
<1> peterS: Ah. Mile-High club is something completely different. Lol.
<11> beth: They stopped a while ago here. It'll be better tonight on the river/levee.
<12> ek: verily ;)
<3> ek: I know, just wondering if anyone has decided to name an actual club that
<3> ek: I might visit denver in about a month, then I can see for myself
<1> peterS: Ah. Not that I'm aware of. No.
<1> I have plenty of friends that go to clubs. Never heard them mention a "MHC" before.
<1> Although, it would go over well being as denver is the "Mile High City"...
<14> haha, i was testing a script the emulates 'killall', and it killed half my processes. lol.
<3> it's an obvious enough joke, I'd think someone would have used it by now
<3> yes, exactly
<1> Yeah.
<2> nachos: geez, who didn't see that coming
<1> Never heard of one.
<1> Might be a good idea.
<1> Give it a shot.
<15> US constitution is well known for being minimal and modular. However I find it funny that there are two ammendments regarding alcohol, the latter obliterating the former ;-)
<1> If i had the cash to toss about I'd go for it myself.
<14> hah zshzn
<6> peterS: there is a famous "Eli's Mile High Club" in california or something
<14> on a side note, zsh is great :-D
<6> http://www.livinblues.com/bluesnews2003/enews4.asp
<1> beth: Yeah. I've heard of that.
<3> guaumiau: you think the constitution should be garbage-collected to that 18th and 21st amendments can be removed?
<1> beth: The pun is the fact that denver is "Mile High City" and MHC is "Mile High Club"... So, it would work.
<15> peterS, haha that could be a good option
<16> guaumiau: and compacted. renumbered. :P
<1> ... not sure if that makes sense... But, it'd work.
<6> ahh
<9> Four variables contain the number of times to go through a loop with one variable in the loop changed. Without using a function what is the best way to loop through each variable without rewriting the loop for each?
<15> Fennec, yup ;)
<3> guaumiau: leave room for the flag burning one?
<2> ack, its Fennec, long time since I've seen that nick pop up
<15> peterS, isn't flag burning already in there ?
<16> omg I'm famous :P
<9> for ($i = 0; $i < $map1quantity; i++){} for ($i = 0; $i < $map2quantity; i++){}...
<16> guaumiau: not inna Constitution
<2> guaumiau: lets just drop that whole constitution, and that country, and everything will be solved. mwahaha
<16> doesn't belong there anyway :P
<2> Fennec: nah I knew you from #wikipedia
<1> Mexicans burned the American flag at our last visit to Mexico for football...
<1> Yet, we house half their country...
<11> AI_coder: You probably don't want to do a for loop like that. Check out foreach
<6> ek: by definition, all of a country is inside that country
<2> and arrays, don't forget arrays
<15> zshzn, that could be said also about the Roman Empire 15 centuries ago ;) That would be healthier even for US citicens
<1> beth: Yeah. Okay.
<1> beth: I stand corrected. But, it's still a ton of illegals that benefit from our housing.
<2> the US is so communist.
<9> Right, for (0..$mapquantity1){..} for (0..$mapquantity2){..}...
<2> how ethical of them ;)
<15> ek, remove illegals and the US economy will collapse
<3> beth: nah, some of it is urban
<1> zshzn: Not communist. Its only when we begin to be out-numbered by people that hate us that we care.
<3> well, that works better if you say 'in the country' rather than 'in that country'
<16> why would we want to remove illegal immigrants?
<1> guaumiau: Tell me about it.
<11> AI_coder: I dunno what you're doing exactly, but you might be able to get away with foreach (0 .. $mapquanity1 * $mapquantity2) { or something like that
<16> why not make all immigration legal?
<9> Damn, mason makes it so hard to write code, there isn't much support for subroutines.
<13> Fennec: too easy ;)
<16> what would we stand to lose? :P
<1> I have no issue with Mexicans being here. Hell, half of my good, GOOD friends are Mexicans... But, when they sue people for not providing and demand rights that I don't even that... Hell....
<1> Leaves me speachless.
<15> ek, well I think it for all the countries that host millions of illegals, they function as low-wage labor
<8> you either use anonymous sub refs or you use subcomponents/methods
<1> speechless*
<3> Fennec: culture. it's only possible to ***imilate foreigners at a certain rate, before you get multiple disjoint cultures that can't work or play together well
<1> guaumiau: Not when millions of tax payers are paying for wellfare and hospital bills...
<8> all three are pretty much the same as writing a regular function, with the sub refs there is virtually no difference
<15> Fennec, that would be nice. In my country immigration was the basis of what we are
<1> guaumiau: I don't mind them being here and doing what most Americans don't want to do. I hold more respect for that than anything.
<3> Fennec: arguably we already have that to some extent, but unlimited immigration would exacerbate it a lot
<11> Too bad there isn't a way for a subref to refer to itself.
<1> But, suing over not laboring an infant because the U.S. should provide for an illegal's baby is just ridiculous.
<8> dabreegster: is that your final answer?
<11> Actually, now that I think about it, how can an anonymous sub call itself recursively?
<1> And I'm the least racist person in the world. I promise.
<9> dabreegster: I'm trying to insert rows into a table. Something like insert into table (v1, v2, v3) values ( ?, ?, ?);
<15> ek, right
<11> Khisanth: Of course not!
<1> guaumiau: Otherwise, I love every race. As long as rules are rules. :P
