<0> I'll top you all
<1> oh even better
<1> I'll use invisible ink
<1> you'll have to print out my blog's pages and use the special solution to read it. :)
<2> Zeros: Unicode can handle it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cuneiform_script
<1> nice
<0> http://ajnewbold.blogspot.com/
<0> there
<0> I win
<1> and wow, that'd be as bad as that guy who speaks fluent braille
<2> lol
<1> I'm busy staring at your box ajnewbold
<1> its hurting my brain
<0> hehe
<0> aww



<0> it was a short entry
<0> you should have gotten it in maybe 10, 15 seconds
<0> I suppose blind people can't stare into the box :(
<3> <_<
<1> :o
<0> I could make a recording that asks people to concenrate hard after the beep
<0> meh, forget blogs
<0> I ought to just make a podcast
<1> hah
<0> they're accessible right from the start!
<0> unless you're deaf :(
<0> ****
<1> just record the POST chimes from your computer
<2> ajnewbold: what you need is a podcast + decent speech recognition
<0> webben: hmmm true
<0> Microsoft's sure isn't decent :(
<0> I tried so hard to get that to work
<1> oh come on
<2> ajnewbold: i haven't actually tried to use it for anything, but i was pleasantly surprised that it worked at all
<1> just hire someone for minimum wage to transcribe your postcast ajnewbold
<0> "Today I had an egg salad sandwich for lunch." --> "Jorge hard eggs ah! lad sand witch four lunks."
<1> :)
<1> oh
<1> that looks like Windows XP tablet edition handwriting recognition :p
<1> "ipconfig" becomes "lgc0nflq"
<0> I think MS's speech and handwriting recognition tools must use the same engine
<0> the "Your Intended Message Converted to ****" engine
<2> ajnewbold: random syllable generator
<0> it's worse than that
<0> it's like they take what you input, and find something that sounds the same but has the most embar***ingly opposite meaning
<0> Zeros: "ipconfig" -> "I pee on figs"
<4> grah
<0> that sort of thing
<0> "Aye pecan fig"
<0> "Eye pee can fig"
<4> okay, I have ONE IE related bug left on my website, and it wont die
<4> www.halcyonflow.com/gallery.php
<1> how much you want to bet they out sourced it ajnewbold
<4> I'm using float:left on all of the image divs, and IE doesnt like that. it explodes the page.
<1> ...to some guy in another country who couldn't speak english
<0> Rehevkor: your site is begging for a "clear" somewhere
<0> Rehevkor: try adding that one thing I mentioned the other day... the <div style="clear: both;">&nbsp;</div> between the section things
<0> like after the Images section and before the PSP Development one
<1> there's no reason for that &nbsp;
<4> yeah, I tried that it a couple places. it exploded slightly differently in IE, and did nothing different in FF
<0> Zeros: heheh, yeah, they probably did outsource it
<0> Zeros: that would at least explain why once when I entered "Lunch with Tim at 12:00, Applebee's" it said "Sanjay stole a coke from the fridge, and I told Vishnu!"
<0> Rehevkor: hmmmm
<1> haha :p
<0> Rehevkor: :(
<1> just remember someday when you start a company ajnewbold, "When in doubt, ship it out."
<1> ;P
<4> it's in there now
<4> ajnewbold: want to see something interesting? resize the window horizontally
<5> where did the $id: format thing come from?
<1> ajnewbold, that goes right with the code monkey's motto "If its broke, give it a poke."
<5> at the bottom of oldschool web pages
<0> Rehevkor: did you change something?
<6> hax: A CVS keyword?
<0> Zeros: heheh



<4> I put that clear:both line between the Images and PSP Development content divs
<5> you know like: $Id: foo.html 1234 1970-01-01 00:00:00 foo $
<5> mattmcc: is that what that is?
<6> Yeah.
<5> they just do it for show?
<6> When CVS sees it, it replaces the timestamp & version info.
<5> oh
<6> Showing it in a web page only makes sense for things like documentation, though.
<5> yeah
<6> it's not uncommon to have keywords like that for source code.
<6> Personally, I've never been a huge fan of them.
<5> seems silly to me
<6> It has value if you're distributing a copy of some code outside the bounds of version control, and if people change it or something, you have the reference version to compare it to.
<6> Beyond that, eh.
<1> much like those settings vim adds to documents at the bottom :p
<1> because using meta data or a project file would be too complicated and not portable :)
<6> Right.
<5> thats just a badge of vim pride
<5> lol
<6> It's much more fun to pollute code with editor preferences.
<5> lol
<5> yeah, that actually *does* something
<6> I think other editors should do it too. We could get source code with a full page of editor prefs!
<1> gotta make sure you base64 encode them too mattmcc
<5> *drool*
<4> ajnewbold: got any idea what's going on with this? I hate to bug you, but I'm out of ideas.
<4> the page validates, and I can't see anything in the CSS that would do this.
<4> hmm. changing the content div width from auto to 99% renders it ok, but that wont work
<4> I think it's floating elements inside a container div set to width:auto that breaks it.
<7> Zeros: http://weblog.rubyonrails.com/2006/8/7/ruby-on-rails-will-ship-with-os-x-10-5-leopard
<6> Now that's amusing.
<6> All the Rails core developers are Apple users.
<7> yup
<1> told ya
<6> That might explain the preference for video clips over, like, documentation.
<1> rails has lots of api documentation
<7> Zeros: Maybe Xcode 3.0 will have awesome ruby support now.
<7> :D
<7> i imagine in Xcode 3.0
<7> you can go to new project
<7> and select Rails
<7> and it'll issue the rails command for you
<7> and have a server start/stop button
<1> mattmcc, http://api.rubyonrails.org/ ;P
<7> Zeros: Do you concur?
<1> I don't know, I'm hoping XCode 3.0 has more intelligent syntax highlighting and auto-complete
<7> the autocomplete is slow as dog
<7> :(
<1> O_o
<1> its not that slow
<1> its just dumb
<7> for me it is
<8> i can't touch anything that apple gets its grubby hands on
<8> django forever
<1> if you auto-complete "str" it looks for every symbol in that file with that name and in the whole language spec
<7> lol
<7> yeah
<6> ivan`: What happens if Apple ships Django when it goes 1.0? :)
<8> cgihandler for me then
<8> it's blazing fast
<1> decore, think we'll get apache2 then too?
<9> hey folks when see that the css you set isnt gettin outputted
<7> Zeros: maybe
<9> yet in your html you can se that the proper css is being selected
<9> what do you do
<1> decore, XCode is pretty fast, I don't know how you think its slow. And I mean I use _Eclipse_ and TextMate felt slugish to me :/
<7> lol
<8> Eclipse is the fastest Java app i've used
<8> at least of the gui ones
<1> SWT kicks ***
<8> too bad Azureus gave it a bad name
<1> decore, The GC for ObjC that ships with XCode 3.0 is cool
<7> i don't know ObjC
<7> :/
