<0> it works fine inside the cpp
<0> the compiler belives that I want to define HWND...
<0> how else can I define it?
<0> solve it... I have to sleep
<1> #include <vector>
<1> typedef vector<vector<int> > Tile;
<1> something wrong with this picture? O_o
<2> helloo i have a job interview which is two hours driving from here ( i am willing to relocate ) and i woke up and i am honestly feeling really sick vomitting etc ( i thinkbecause of a kebab that i ate yesterday).now because i dont htink is the best way to turn up feeling like this for making a good impression and because i feel bad..any suggestions ..of..what is the best way to inform the person that i cant make it :-(?
<3> Melchior - it's std::vector
<1> oh yea =__=
<1> god damn being used to using nampespace std crap
<1> thanks
<4> whattodo, I wish I had good advice for you
<4> The illness might p***
<4> You might want to call them and ask them if they'd like to reschedule or something



<4> You could try toughing it out
<4> I'd be surprised if being sick on the scheduled interview day would be the one thing that makes them decide to pick someone else
<4> So I wouldn't kill myself no matter what I did or how it turned out
<4> Just don't make it sound like it happens all the time
<4> There are employees out there who for whatever reason are always sick, and who are totally unwilling to tough it out
<4> That can look bad
<4> But I think when you start vomiting out of nowhere, you've got a legitimate case.
<4> If it were me, I'd just be honest with them, and be willing to come out if it's too inconvenient for them to reschedule
<4> But I really have no idea if that's "the right" way to go or not.
<4> Try asking in #politics, actually.
<4> More than a few of the regulars are themselves employers and/or interviewers
<2> lol
<2> ok
<2> thanks i will be honest
<4> Just remember, it might turn out to be one of those things that in an hour or two, you feel great
<2> but i guess many people use the sick excuse even if it is not true and i am sure they heard it many times and this is what i dont like .
<4> Well, here's a thought
<2> i hope so .. :-( i really do
<4> What time's the interview
<4> And what time is it there now
<4> In other words, how long do you have
<2> i have 4 hours
<4> Well
<2> approximately
<2> but the problem is that it is lso 2 hours drive .
<4> Right
<4> Here's what I'd do
<4> Probably
<4> Call them up now, or when they open, and let them know what you're dealing with, in polite terms.
<4> Woke up with nausea and what-not
<4> You might feel better by the time the interview comes along
<4> It might p***
<4> Or, it might be just as bad or worse
<4> So either you'd end up rescheduling, or going
<4> So call now, and suggest that maybe you can call back in a few hours
<4> And let them know if you're doing any better
<4> No, the more I think about that, the crappier it is
<4> Just be honest.
<4> I'd much rather hire a guy who's always sick than one who lies all the time
<2> ok i guess is the best way even if they hear it often ..what can i do .
<4> But you might give it half an hour or something
<4> See if you feel better
<2> i will ,i will
<4> Or an hour or two or whatever
<4> I really don't know. :)
<2> thanks for the advice.. is a stupid situation .
<4> There's no perfect answer, like a lot of employment challenges.
<2> thanks
<4> Just do your best, and everything else will just have to take care of itself
<4> Sure, hope you feel better.
<4> Let us know how it turns out eventually.
<2> me 2 :-(
<4> And
<4> Ask in #politics
<2> ok will do this now
<4> I wasn't kidding, there's a decent chance that someone in there knows "the right" approach to take.
<4> k
<5> #politics: they can make a simple "Ring in sick" answer, sound really spread out
<4> If they respond at all
<2> :-)
<4> <ZARD0Z> "i want to work for this company so bad i'm willing to risk my life by coming to this interview."



<4> Haha
<4> Actually, that's the part that really gives you an out
<4> It's not like you can just walk down the street to get there
<4> You've gotta drive two hours, which means driving sick, which means endangering people
<4> I'd just call and be honest
<4> One thing, though
<4> Don't reschedule for, like, tomorrow, unless that's their best option
<4> Just in case this turns out to be a flu that takes a few days to get over
<2> well actually the office is closed now because i called (welli guessed)
<4> Ask to reschedule to "later in the week"
<4> nod
<2> but i will e-mail them
<4> No no
<4> This isn't an email thing
<4> Keep trying them by phone periodically
<2> u r right i will wait till they open
<4> And see if you start to feel better or not
<4> Anyway, I'll let you get to whatever
<4> My first day at work after I graduated college, on the way there I stopped for a doughnut or something, and I got the key jammed in the ignition of the old beater POS I was driving
<4> No, I remember, the starter died
<4> Something like that, anyway
<4> Somehow lucked into a guy who happened by who knew how to jab them with a stick to get them to turn over
<4> These things always tend to happen when you least want them to
<6> hm
<3> hm
<6> somehow this socket isnt being put in async mode, or windows has a 500KB send buffer -.-;;
<3> hm
<6> hm windows has a huuuuge send buffer somehow
<6> i changed it to 5MB and still it doenst block.. :S
<3> is the socket nonblocking?
<6> yes
<6> async
<6> sane thing
<3> mmm not really I think
<3> the async stuff sends you messages
<6> yes, and i have a message loop that captures them
<6> but the WSAAsyncSelect function sets the socket to nonblocking (according to msdn)
<3> yeah I usually don't mess with that stuff, heh
<6> its nice enough
<6> but i wanted to test the blocking... but it doesnt
<6> heh
<6> maybe if i make it 2 send()s
<6> right.. 4 buffers of 500KB each makes it generate WSAEWOULDBLOCK
<6> window's buffers seem to be dynamic of sorts.. joy
<7> anyone knows Ashe?
<7> or MooJuice...
<8> why?
<7> been some time since I where in here - wanted to hear if they where still actively visiting this place
<8> they do
<7> cool :)
<9> does anyone know how i can poll cin in win32?
<10> hey, does standard specify anything regarding modifying a const object with member function? proff told, it compiler specific
<11> If the access path to the object is const then you can't modify the object's non-mutable members without a cast. It doesn't matter whether "you" are a member function or something else.
<10> _m_, what about, if i try to modify using a pointer to object?
<10> like, we can modify const int a=10, *p=&a; *p=40;
<11> You can't without castsing.
<11> s/sts/st/
<10> ok
<11> The only place where you could would be a string-literal.
<11> For historical reasons, char * foo = "foo" is legal, although a string literal is constant.
<11> foo[0] = 'x'; would invoke undefined behaviour.
<10> still we are not allowed to modify the string literal further. right?
<10> okay... :)
<11> (which usually is implemented as 'it works' or 'segmentation violation')
<11> Right, you must not attempt to modify the string literal.
<10> is it allowed to throw a string constant? like try{ .... throw "my string" } catch (char *msg){cout<<msg<<end;} ?
<10> its not working and proff is telling, theoretically it should work
<11> Yes, you're allowed to throw a string constant.
<11> Make sure you catch a char const *, not a char *.
<10> i see.. let me check
<12> hi everyone ....
<12> one small question: is it possible to use Templates to build LUTs ?
<13> LUTs?
