| 00:23.24 | wethrin | hello, late-night-Leeds |
| 00:23.36 | Leeds | morning |
| 00:24.14 | wethrin | Good idea |
| 00:24.23 | Leeds | which one? :-) |
| 00:24.37 | wethrin | Both! |
| 00:24.50 | Leeds | okay, in which order? |
| 00:24.58 | wethrin | Sleepwalk! |
| 00:25.54 | Leeds | hmm... now there's a thought |
| 00:25.54 | Leeds | bit cold to walk in pjs though |
| 00:25.54 | wethrin | Fully dressed? |
| 00:26.30 | Leeds | not so good for sleeping though |
| 00:27.17 | Leeds | plus, it's a bit hard to concentrate on learning Hebrew while sleepwalking |
| 00:27.47 | wethrin | Subliminal learning :) |
| 00:29.30 | Leeds | yeah, I've been working on that |
| 00:42.52 | Leeds | okay, I should go for a wlk |
| 00:43.11 | wethrin | I have 55MB of hard drive space free |
| 00:43.28 | Leeds | that's... not much |
| 00:43.32 | wethrin | Ah, b ut stuff in Trash |
| 00:43.49 | wethrin | Up to 1.3GB |
| 00:44.22 | Leeds | so, empty it |
| 00:44.29 | wethrin | Done |
| 00:44.33 | wethrin | Have fun! |
| 01:27.35 | *** join/#gllug rhowe (rhowe@82.133.120.56) |
| 01:28.16 | Leeds | morning rhowe |
| 01:28.24 | Leeds | or not... |
| 01:28.48 | wethrin | Has he escaped the country? |
| 01:29.35 | Leeds | yes |
| 01:29.46 | wethrin | Ahh |
| 01:29.49 | Leeds | don't know how long for though |
| 01:30.28 | wethrin | Well, he missed Lonix. That's clearly long enough :) |
| 01:30.40 | Leeds | anyway, it's very very cold outside, was very clear when I went out, but is now clouding over... I've done my 30 minutes a day of Hebrew course, and I've done my 10k paces... |
| 01:30.42 | wethrin | Right. Time for sleep |
| 01:30.44 | wethrin | g'night |
| 01:30.49 | Leeds | g'night |
| 01:30.50 | wethrin | Good good :) |
| 01:31.38 | Leeds | and cold and tired |
| 01:56.27 | evangineer | what sort of python web dev have you done, Leeds? CGI or one of the umpteen frameworks? |
| 01:56.39 | Leeds | cgi, and a little zope |
| 01:58.08 | evangineer | I've hacked on a python cgi and have used zope but never coded for it. |
| 01:58.09 | Leeds | didn't like zope for development - I think it's good for templates and object-based content, but crap for actually coding against |
| 01:58.33 | Leeds | zope 3 is meant to be a lot better in that area, but I've not looked at it |
| 01:59.17 | Leeds | why did you have to hack it? |
| 01:59.43 | evangineer | something weird about the wxPython debian package in sid |
| 01:59.44 | Leeds | oh, and I was playing with BaseHTTPServer yesterday, which is sort of an anti-CGI - you embed the HTTP server in the script, rather than the other way around :-) |
| 02:00.17 | evangineer | defaults to a wxPython 2.4 api, rather than it's native 2.5 api |
| 02:00.21 | Leeds | oh, well... debian... |
| 02:01.04 | Leeds | if it doesn't work with "get gtk, wxfoo and python and install from source" I care - otherwise, it's a bug in your distro |
| 02:01.15 | evangineer | after a long time working out what was going on, I inserted a wxversion.select() in the appropriate place. |
| 02:04.37 | Leeds | I've only looked at a little wxfoo - pygtk works for me if I need that sort of thing, and I have played with tkinter a little, because it's nice and cross-platform and standard |
| 02:10.29 | evangineer | I just wanted to be able to run TaskCoach on my box. |
| 02:13.46 | Leeds | sure |
| 02:14.34 | evangineer | so how interested are you in python web dev? |
| 02:15.18 | Leeds | what do you mean by interested? |
| 02:15.53 | evangineer | would you consider working on a paid project? |
| 02:16.13 | Leeds | in the past couple of years I've been running a couple of reasonably major 'stand-alone' python web apps for Limmud (charity thing) |
| 02:17.16 | Leeds | I might consider doing it for work, but I'm concerned that I have no background or training in 'web stuff' - so I don't feel I'm really up to calling myself a professional |
| 02:17.38 | Leeds | not that I couldn't train myself up :-) |
| 02:17.52 | evangineer | indeed |
| 02:18.52 | Leeds | but I wouldn't think of it as my first target for job hunting - I'd only be interested in it a a python thing really, probably as much as I'd be interested in any python thing |
| 02:20.10 | Leeds | in some ways, I'd prefer to remain stictly a high-quality python amateur :-) |
| 02:20.22 | evangineer | heh |
| 02:20.37 | Leeds | in terms of keeping it for fun personal stuff |
| 02:21.01 | evangineer | fair enough |
| 02:21.39 | Leeds | and as a secret weapon for work stuff - the ability to quickly knock out random applets is a major "I'm a productive employee/team member" skill :-) |
| 02:24.06 | Leeds | just like my "find random open source app which does what's needed" skill has come in handy a number of times, without it being in any way a core skill |
| 02:24.57 | Leeds | in terms of things like introducing the concept of wiki to the team |
| 02:27.56 | Leeds | anyway, time for bed |
| 02:32.34 | evangineer | nn Leeds |

| 12:45.23 | mikejw | expected delivery time 2, 3 days |
| 12:45.47 | mikejw | it doesn't play oggs, but there you go |
| 12:45.47 | Leeds | 1GB I assume |
| 12:46.00 | mikejw | no the smaller one |
| 12:46.05 | Leeds | too small for me |
| 12:46.09 | mikejw | =] |
| 12:46.30 | mikejw | hmmm |
| 12:46.36 | skugg_ | i just want something with oodles of battery time and that takes up no space. |
| 12:46.55 | skugg_ | regular ipods are cool enough, but rather big. plus, I don't need all that stuff they do. |
| 12:47.07 | Leeds | I've got an almost-full 40GB |
| 12:47.16 | skugg_ | why? |
| 12:47.18 | mikejw | yeah I don't really need to transfer large files around |
| 12:47.36 | Leeds | why what? |
| 12:47.51 | skugg_ | just "why?" :) |
| 12:48.06 | mikejw | never start a question with "why" =) |
| 12:48.06 | Leeds | becasue |
| 12:48.13 | skugg_ | yeah, I don't have 40GB of diskspace... |
| 12:48.36 | mikejw | neither do I on my main machine |
| 12:48.40 | skugg_ | an external hd would be a lot cheaper than an ipod, I guess ;) |
| 12:48.50 | Leeds | yes |
| 12:49.39 | mikejw | but not as stylish |
| 12:49.43 | skugg_ | anyway... i'm a habitual animal. i don't listen to everything at once; so, an ipod shuffle is fine for me. |
| 12:49.51 | mikejw | yeah me too |
| 12:49.56 | skugg_ | sync over stuff that I want to listen to that day, then go to work. |
| 12:50.03 | skugg_ | next day, rinse, lather, repeat |
| 12:50.08 | mikejw | lol |
| 12:50.13 | Leeds | I have a standard playlist which is most of what I listen to, but even that is over 2.5GB |
| 12:50.20 | skugg_ | heh |
| 12:50.35 | skugg_ | I guess I need to do some testing... |
| 12:50.42 | Leeds | I also listen to other things, like audiobooks and (currently working through) a Hebrew course |
| 12:50.44 | mikejw | I definitely go through phases of listening to a band until I know their every cymbal crash |
| 12:51.05 | mikejw | hmmm |
| 12:51.19 | Leeds | skugg_: very approximately, about 1MB per minute for decent but not top-notch qualirt |
| 12:51.21 | Leeds | quality |
| 12:51.22 | skugg_ | mikejw: ah. a bit more obsessed than be then |
| 12:51.43 | mikejw | skugg_: or just because I'm a musician =] |
| 12:51.49 | skugg_ | Leeds: so about 60 MB per cd then? |
| 12:52.02 | skugg_ | mikejw: ah. that would do it :) |
| 12:52.24 | mikejw | :D |
| 12:52.25 | Leeds | skugg_: albums tend to vary from about 40 minutes to about 70 in my experience |
| 12:53.01 | skugg_ | Leeds: so about 60 on average, as I said (erroring on the high side for safety) |
| 12:53.26 | Leeds | yeah, I suppose so :-) |
| 13:02.19 | mikejw | =] |
| 13:29.41 | mozrat | how quaint |
| 13:34.11 | skugg_ | Leeds: your tivo, is that purchased in the us? |
| 13:34.17 | skugg_ | does it actually work over here? |
| 13:35.05 | Leeds | skugg_: no, it's the UK model - made for a short period of time, and very hard to get now |
| 13:35.17 | Leeds | and frankly, it's getting to the point where it's really showing its age |
| 13:36.04 | skugg_ | i see |
| 13:37.00 | skugg_ | there are occasionally programs on that I know I want to watch, but I never remember when they are on... |
| 13:37.41 | Leeds | you're probably better off getting a freeview pvr now |
| 13:40.25 | skugg_ | my colleague has that |
| 13:40.38 | skugg_ | not sure if I want freeview though... |
| 13:41.53 | skugg_ | have a link to that box by the way? |
| 13:41.58 | Leeds | which box? |
| 13:42.07 | skugg_ | freeview pvr? |
| 13:42.17 | Leeds | I was talking more as a generic thing than a particular box - there are at least a couple AFAIK |
| 13:42.25 | skugg_ | oh, i see. |
| 13:43.21 | Leeds | I don't think there's any point *not* getting freeview now |
| 13:43.32 | mikejw | :) |
| 13:46.07 | skugg_ | hm.. |
| 13:46.24 | skugg_ | I might have to buy a new tv soon, so might get tv with freeview built in |
| 13:46.56 | skugg_ | dunno if such a thing would come with pvr though |
| 13:47.17 | Leeds | copying stuff to video is so slow - realtime! |
| 13:48.53 | wethrin | skugg! |

| 14:05.17 | skugg_ | one written in php _may_ be okay, as long as I don't have to touch the code. |

| 22:00.58 | floo | no |
| 22:01.07 | Leeds | bah, no CTCP response :-) |
| 22:01.14 | floo | what's that/ |
| 22:01.19 | Leeds | ah, there it is |
| 22:01.27 | Leeds | client-to-client protocol |
| 22:01.28 | floo | what ru doing? |
| 22:01.36 | floo | what does that mean/ |
| 22:02.10 | Leeds | I'm reading your brainwaves over IRC |
| 22:02.32 | floo | be careful, I'm prone to unsavioury thoughts |
| 22:03.04 | Leeds | I know! |
| 22:03.29 | floo | what's the advantage of sending me a cpthing? |
| 22:03.32 | Leeds | so how are you, anyway? |
| 22:03.45 | floo | confused |
| 22:04.13 | floo | I've got a cd... box in front of me but I don't understand it |
| 22:04.16 | Leeds | ctcp is just a way to send a message to your software, rather than you - in this case, I've been asking it what version it is |
| 22:04.31 | floo | and what did it say |
| 22:04.44 | Leeds | VERSION xchat 2.0.8 Linux 2.6.8.1-4-686 [i686/998.35MHz] |
| 22:05.13 | floo | hhold on! that's supposed to be a 1ghz processor |
| 22:05.29 | floo | does 997... mean it's on it's way out? |
| 22:05.45 | Leeds | nope, you've been cheated out of 1.65 of your MHz |
| 22:05.56 | floo | b'stards!! |
| 22:06.14 | Leeds | it just means that's how quick it was when the kernel tested it at boottime |
| 22:06.21 | floo | how do I send you one of these cp things? |
| 22:06.38 | floo | and why would I want to/ |
| 22:06.46 | Leeds | either by right-clicking me in the list of channel members, or manually by doing "/ctcp Leeds foo" |
| 22:07.19 | floo | ooh |
| 22:07.21 | floo | I like it |
| 22:07.26 | Leeds | hah - my CPU (on my main PC, not this Mac) has been detected as a 2009.751MHz machine! |
| 22:07.26 | floo | Darwin eh! |
| 22:07.41 | floo | how come you're not using Slackware you traitor! |
| 22:07.47 | Leeds | on a mac? |
| 22:08.21 | floo | you know what I mean! |
| 22:08.37 | floo | :) |
| 22:08.51 | Leeds | I use slackware on my PCs, of course - I use solaris on my (well, work's) sparc machine, and I use OS X on my Mac |
| 22:09.07 | floo | I didn't get your user info |
| 22:09.13 | floo | have you blocked it/ |
| 22:09.15 | Leeds | nope, you didn't |
| 22:09.22 | Leeds | nah, it just doesn't seem to work |
| 22:09.30 | floo | pmsl |
| 22:09.34 | Leeds | ctcp, like most of IRC, is a very loosely-defined protocol |
| 22:09.36 | Leeds | pmsl? |
| 22:09.44 | Leeds | plimsole? |
| 22:10.02 | Leeds | pity my small llama? |
| 22:10.03 | floo | Pissing MySelf Laughing |
| 22:10.12 | floo | lmao |
| 22:10.13 | Leeds | ah |
| 22:10.23 | Leeds | not heard that one before :-) |
| 22:10.29 | floo | laughing My ass Off |
| 22:10.50 | Leeds | yeah, yeah - I know that one - I don't know the llama one |
| 22:11.07 | Leeds | so, how is your small llama? |
| 22:11.14 | floo | consider yourself enlightened old thing |
| 22:11.23 | Leeds | oy - don't call me old! |
| 22:11.26 | floo | don't be personal |
| 22:11.43 | floo | I can't help it if I was at the back of the queue |
| 22:11.59 | Leeds | we all have our llamas to bear |
| 22:12.13 | floo | sounds like an anomaly |
| 22:12.34 | floo | that explains much |
| 22:12.44 | Leeds | yes, I suppose it does... |
| 22:12.50 | floo | hee hee |
| 22:13.18 | Leeds | do you know the yak? |
| 22:13.54 | floo | sssshhhhh.... we don't mention him in company |
| 22:14.02 | Leeds | why not? |
| 22:14.41 | Leeds | seriously, do you know him? |
| 22:15.08 | floo | no |
| 22:15.12 | floo | who is he |
| 22:15.31 | Leeds | hang on a mo |
| 22:16.16 | Leeds | had to get to power... |
| 22:17.09 | Leeds | his name is Jeff Minter, he started calling himself yak back in the days of arcade games which would only take three-letter names (initials), and he's probably the most innovative video game producer this country has ever um, produced |
| 22:18.05 | floo | right |
| 22:18.14 | floo | so why should i know him |
| 22:18.21 | Leeds | he has a thing about llamas |
| 22:18.49 | Leeds | and camels - pretty much all of that family of beast |
| 22:18.57 | Leeds | everyone should know him - he's cool |
| 22:19.03 | Leeds | know *of* him, that is |
| 22:19.09 | Leeds | not know him personally |
| 22:19.19 | floo | i see |
| 22:19.31 | George | I rock. I just accidently hit rm -rf /usr |
| 22:19.46 | Leeds | George: yet you're still here :-( |
| 22:20.06 | floo | Oh no! |
| 22:20.07 | George | Leeds: this is the server. I have no intention of destroying my server |
| 22:20.10 | floo | silly boy |
| 22:20.16 | George | Leeds: it was my gentoo athlon64 workstation I just hosed |
| 22:20.24 | George | Leeds: currently telling it to re-emerge *all* packages :) |
| 22:20.31 | Leeds | ah, well, no loss then |
| 22:20.47 | floo | ah Gentoo |
| 22:21.00 | floo | needs patience and a lot of time |
| 22:21.04 | floo | I have neither |
| 22:21.08 | George | hey, any of your fancy distributions would have been hosed on a rm -rf /usr too :P |

| 22:23.35 | Leeds | I've done that twice in the past week :-) |
| 22:24.54 | Marios_ | my street is 6 minutes away from a high street where lots of fast food/restaurants are located |
| 22:25.07 | Marios_ | so every few days I visit a new place ;) |
| 22:26.02 | Leeds | I did discover that there are about 20 eating places in Mill Hill (one of my local high streets) |
| 22:26.27 | Marios_ | hehehhe |
| 22:26.32 | Leeds | that's sit-down-and-get-prepared-food places, as well as a few food shops |
