<0> Ha ha ha, that's not my wallet! That's my ... My...
<0> Underwear! Ha ha ha ha ha!!
<1> why is it brown and made of leather?
<0> Cuz... Eh... That's a secret.
<0> I ehh... That's... Not of any importance here.
<2> haha
<2> "Alzheimers for Dummies"
<0> Hey ehh... Gurus...



<1> laughing at gurus doesn't seem like a smart thing to do :)
<0> when I want to program a server, with multiple processes like multiple clients, programs, and specific servers, etcetera... How would I do that?
<1> poe.
<0> I'm not laughing at gurus, I'm laughing at buu! ^_^
<2> RUN AWAY AND USE PHP
<1> you laughed at me too :(
<0> AAAH
<0> NOOO
<0> PHP...
<0> :'(
<0> NOOOOOOOO----
<3> you should port POE to PHP
<0> eek
<2> haha
<3> tr/EO/PH/
<2> That's hilariously awful.
<2> Brend: You around?
<0> Gotta go. Cya.
<4> what is the best formatting to get the hour (time) returned in 12-hour time, rather than 24-hour time? i.e. 2:00pm versus 14:00 hours
<1> am/pm notation is useless
<5> We should call it Imperial time.
<5> 'cause only the U.S. is stupid enough to use it.
<6> cube it!
<7> While it is somewhat squooshed, I think it is still wearable.
<4> well i just mean 12-hour time so it's easier to read for my audience, as opposed to 17:43, or whatever, and them having to do math
<2> dngor: I agree!
<1> your audience ****s.
<8> hello!
<4> Botje: don't they all?
<5> Your audience is Barbie?
<4> Botje: i mean, this is for the average web surfer, so what can i say? have to set it up for the lowest common denomenator
<1> so?
<1> am/pm are *NOT* the "lowest common denominator"
<9> eval ($foo, $bar, $hour) = localtime(); sprintf "%d %s", $hour % 12, $hour > 12 ? "pm" : "am";
<2> Dude, I love how every site on the internet has an "english" version
<9> eval: ($foo, $bar, $hour) = localtime(); sprintf "%d %s", $hour % 12, $hour > 12 ? "pm" : "am";
<10> ParityBit: Return: 2 pm
<2> "Applications for registration of domain names are accepted only in an electronic kind on a site in a network the Internet"
<2> "ATTENTION: Time of a session of connection is limited! From the moment of your arrival on site www.tld.by and before sending to the Administrator of a zone "BY" the filled application for registration of the domain should not p*** more than 1 hour"
<2> haha
<1> buu: they're .. kidding .. right?
<3> eval: POSIX::strftime "%I:%M %p", localtime
<10> mauke: Return: 02:54 PM
<2> Botje: That's what it says!
<4> Botje: i'm just looking for 12-hour time, not 24-hour. 24-hour time will confuse people more than 12, since the majority of clocks are 12-hour. personally i would like 24, but most people don't. and i design for the majority (unfortunately)
<2> Hrm. I can register 'buu.by' =/
<9> Ahhh.
<9> I should learn strftime one of these days.
<1> csb: my majority can beat up yours.
<9> But I never actually have reason to in my work.
<11> hi
<4> mauke, ParityBit: thanks
<1> but yeah, use strftime
<4> Botje: well my majority has nukes
<3> csb: you have weird majorities
<11> is such a line valid? "if (substr($information[$i+1],0,1) eq 'p' or not defined($information[$i+1])) {"
<3> ParityBit: don't learn, just use man strftime
<3> eval: if (substr($information[$i+1],0,1) eq 'p' or not defined($information[$i+1])) {}
<10> mauke: Return:
<4> am i insane to think that more people are comfortable with 12-hour time than 24-hour time? maybe i am. hmmm... well in any event...



<1> csb: yes you are.
<4> ok, fair enough
<3> no one uses am/pm
<9> Hnm.
<9> I think you mean 'Europe doesn't'.
<4> ah europe. that explains it.
<2> Hrm. I need a 4 letter word that ends in 'by'
<12> ISO doesn't
<12> nuff said
<1> abby!
<13> buu: ruby?
<13> buu: or baby
<12> buby
<2> hobbs: Taken =[
<2> So is bu.by
<1> gum.by?
<14> Abby Toby baby doby gaby goby inby kiby orby ruby toby
<2> meh
<9> And I wonder if even there you won't find that people old enough to have clocks with hands use 12 hour time. Not that they'd be visiting a website if they won't even own a digital clock.
<2> Those are all taken =[
<14> That's all the matches from ALLWORDS.gz.
<14> "by" itself is a word, so you could try for a 2-letter word to put in front of it.
<2> Hrm. How many two letter words are there?
<13> inby?
<14> Got me. ALLWORDS has 235 but many don't look like words to me.
<2> Yeah
<2> Me either
<14> Or the Y could be from the adjectivization of a 3 letter word.
<1> cuntaby!
<1> sothe.by ?
<1> raped.by ?
<15> I'm attempting to teach myself perl from the "Learning Perl" oreilly's book, but some things aren't described very well that I can find.
<15> can someone use some crayon and explain the concept of 'my' when using variables or arrays to me?
<15> or point me to better perl docs?
<16> perlbot coping with scoping
<17> Coping with Scoping - http://perl.plover.com/FAQs/Namespaces.html
<3> "my" creates local variables
<18> arrays *are* variables
<3> that's it, really
<18> my is all about where you can use the variable in your code.
<18> "my" just like the word is very, very possessive.
<15> ah, so public/global/private sort of thing then?
<18> no
<3> no, local
<18> it's _lexical_ scope
<3> Evolution: do you know any other programming languages?
<18> so it's accessible by name extent is limited to the enclosing lexical block
<15> mauke: not really. I'm coming mostly from a shell scripting background.
<3> ah
<1> ah, the land of no scoping
<3> I think local shell variables are limited to functions
<15> but I'm using more and more perl at work with rrdtool and software packages, so it seemed like a good idea to know what I'm working with
<18> mum-- # the brownie is lacking its squidge
<2> HA HA
<15> think I've got the hang of it now. thanks
<2> Well so much for that.
<18> Yes, creationism has much more staying power
<19> 563/1039MB page memory. This is not a Good Thing.
<18> miam/dodo?
<20> Any suggestions how to create PDF from XML ? right now I am using xml->html->htmldoc, and its not something, for example htmldoc dotn support css
<18> latex!
<3> surrealistic public aways
<1> vopr: did you look at the docbook standard?
<20> latex ?!?!?! please :)
<18> random elephants wear latex
<20> well, never approached docbook
<18> bah, that just renders via latex in the end
<20> tho its easy to get from xmls
<18> unless you use FOP but that's Java *CRAP*
<1> integral: ixnay on the atexlay!
<20> well, i use Java anyways ... mostly for JFreeChart
<18> I need to start lobbying the faculty board to include a LaTeX course
<20> never found anything close to JFree's performance
