Oct 11 22:45:11 * TheFerret (Furo@CPE001839c4c1b9-CM0011aec5599e.cpe.net.cable.rogers.com) has joined #compsci.ca
Oct 11 22:45:15 <sd88g93> so any of you developers ?
Oct 11 22:45:21 <rdrake> we all play around
Oct 11 22:45:24 <md> define developer
Oct 11 22:45:30 <sd88g93> software developer ?
Oct 11 22:45:38 <TheFerret> we all play around
Oct 11 22:45:48 * Furo has quit (Ping timeout)
Oct 11 22:45:48 <rdrake> echo
Oct 11 22:45:59 <rdrake> echo... echo...
Oct 11 22:46:08 <md> we see you rdrake
Oct 11 22:46:14 <TheFerret> hmm, i timed out now
Oct 11 22:46:18 <sd88g93> we see you and raise you ten
Oct 11 22:46:27 <md> and I consider myself to be a programmer; though I suppose you could call me a developer
Oct 11 22:46:33 <sd88g93> oh oops, sorry, thought we were playing poker there
Oct 11 22:46:55 <sd88g93> what do you program ?
Oct 11 22:47:07 <md> low level networking stuff
Oct 11 22:47:10 <TheFerret> didnt work rdrake
Oct 11 22:47:12 <md> and I do it very slowly
Oct 11 22:47:28 <md> also custom software for people who pay me
Oct 11 22:47:33 <rdrake> TheFerret, you must RTFM
Oct 11 22:47:34 <md> but that's pretty iffy right now
Oct 11 22:47:47 <TheFerret> i did
Oct 11 22:47:53 <TheFerret> ish
Oct 11 22:48:01 <rdrake> you put on a floppy, rebooted into safe mode, then did it?
Oct 11 22:48:03 <rdrake> I don't think so
Oct 11 22:48:14 <sd88g93> what kind of environment doyou use ?
Oct 11 22:48:15 <TheFerret> do i have a floppy drive or a floppy disk
Oct 11 22:48:23 <rdrake> do you need one?
Oct 11 22:48:24 <rdrake> yes
Oct 11 22:48:27 <TheFerret> no
Oct 11 22:48:29 <rdrake> sd88g93, sadly i'm using winders now
Oct 11 22:48:37 <rdrake> but we usually use linux and *nix offshoots
Oct 11 22:48:39 <sd88g93> i'm using windows now too
Oct 11 22:48:49 <sd88g93> but i have a linux system setup
Oct 11 22:49:44 <sd88g93> anyone program with eclipse ?
Oct 11 22:49:49 * md uses *nix exclusively
Oct 11 22:49:52 <md> no
Oct 11 22:49:57 <md> gedit and a command line ftw
Oct 11 22:50:01 <rdrake> agreed
Oct 11 22:50:05 <rdrake> but I have little choice
Oct 11 22:50:08 <rdrake> at least I have ssh back up
Oct 11 22:50:50 <sd88g93> eclipse seems to be the best developing environment to program in, its a truly beautiful IDE
Oct 11 22:51:02 <rdrake> takes up lots of resources though
Oct 11 22:51:04 * rdrake hates java
Oct 11 22:51:14 <sd88g93> yes it does, the one drawback about it
Oct 11 22:51:18 <TheFerret> shower time, bbl
Oct 11 22:51:19 <sd88g93> but it can do so much
Oct 11 22:51:47 <sd88g93> you can program in c in it too , or c#
Oct 11 22:52:34 <md> you can do all those in gedit and a command line too
Oct 11 22:52:46 <sd88g93> anyone involved in any open source projects ?
Oct 11 22:52:59 * md ponders why you ask so many questions
Oct 11 22:53:22 <sd88g93> just trying to enliven it up a bit, i'm curious
Oct 11 22:53:31 <sd88g93> sorry
Oct 11 22:53:53 <md> ahh
Oct 11 22:53:59 <niko> He's a commie spy!
Oct 11 22:54:01 * md is busy programming
Oct 11 22:54:06 <md> ahh! a commie!
Oct 11 22:54:18 <md> quick! shoot him with your stun gun!
Oct 11 22:54:19 <sd88g93> md, what are you programming now ?
Oct 11 22:54:27 <md> things. secret things
Oct 11 22:54:35 * md looks around in a paranoid manner
Oct 11 22:54:39 <sd88g93> so youre into cryptography ?
Oct 11 22:54:50 <md> yes...
Oct 11 22:54:59 * md goes back to ignoring most of the chanel so he can work
Oct 11 22:55:16 <sd88g93> i dont like cryptography much, its just tooo .... errrr .... cryptic
Oct 11 22:55:38 <sd88g93> can never figure it out
Oct 11 22:55:50 <rdrake> md is working a secret project
Oct 11 22:56:04 <sd88g93> is md a doctor ?
Oct 11 22:56:12 <rdrake> no
Oct 11 22:56:35 <sd88g93> what states are we all in ? i'm in CT
Oct 11 22:57:29 <rdrake> compsci.CA
Oct 11 22:57:39 <rdrake> almost all Canadian
Oct 11 22:57:46 <sd88g93> oh that's right
Oct 11 22:57:54 <sd88g93> am i the only american ?
Oct 11 22:57:56 <md> american!
Oct 11 22:57:58 <md> kill him!
Oct 11 22:58:01 <rdrake> I do believe so
Oct 11 22:58:03 * md gets out the BFG
Oct 11 22:58:04 <rdrake> down md, down
Oct 11 22:58:08 <md> grrr....
Oct 11 22:58:10 <sd88g93> its ok, i like canadians
Oct 11 22:58:17 <sd88g93> well, most
Oct 11 22:58:18 * rdrake muzzles md
Oct 11 22:58:23 <md> that's not ok; your still an american
Oct 11 22:58:36 <sd88g93> i only like the ones with 10 fingers and 10 toes though
Oct 11 22:58:47 <md> but I won't hold it against you quite yet...
Oct 11 22:58:51 * niko has quit (Read error: EOF from client)
Oct 11 22:58:53 <md> what do you mean by that?
Oct 11 22:59:05 <md> we don't all live in igloos you know
Oct 11 22:59:12 <md> some of us have wood huts
Oct 11 22:59:15 <sd88g93> but some do , right ?
Oct 11 22:59:24 * rdrake shrugs
Oct 11 22:59:25 <md> ...
Oct 11 22:59:29 <rdrake> it was 23 degrees this weekend...
Oct 11 22:59:32 <sd88g93> i wish i lived in an iggloo, those huts are kinda cool lookin
Oct 11 22:59:34 <rdrake> celcius
Oct 11 22:59:58 <sd88g93> do you all like the red greeen show ? i bet its your fav right ?
Oct 11 23:00:05 <rdrake> fuck that
Oct 11 23:00:20 <rdrake> never watch that shit
Oct 11 23:00:21 <md> oh yeah, it's as funny as CNN
Oct 11 23:00:21 <sd88g93> hah! a canadian that doesnt like Red Green ?
Oct 11 23:00:29 <rdrake> most don't like him...
Oct 11 23:00:46 <sd88g93> its on pbs on saturdays here
Oct 11 23:00:51 <rdrake> interesting
Oct 11 23:01:13 <sd88g93> i bet you all like Tim Horton's coffee ? right ?
Oct 11 23:01:17 <rdrake> I hate coffee
Oct 11 23:01:23 <rdrake> you'd be hard pressed to find somebody in here who does like that show
Oct 11 23:01:40 <sd88g93> well i dont really like it either , so there
Oct 11 23:01:40 <rdrake> their hot chocolate is decent
Oct 11 23:01:48 <rdrake> donuts aren't bad either
Oct 11 23:02:01 <rdrake> 3x less unhealthy than krispy kreme's
Oct 11 23:02:07 <rdrake> go Canada
Oct 11 23:02:07 <sd88g93> actually, i think tim horton coffee is better than starbucks
Oct 11 23:02:12 <rdrake> starbucks sucks
Oct 11 23:02:15 * md wonders if sd88g93 can name the president of Canada
Oct 11 23:02:18 <rdrake> they wanted $5 for a hot chocolate
Oct 11 23:02:23 <rdrake> I told them where to go
Oct 11 23:02:29 <sd88g93> starbucks coffee just tastes burnt
Oct 11 23:02:33 <rdrake> yes, our president
Oct 11 23:02:39 <rdrake> good fellow
Oct 11 23:02:53 <sd88g93> president ? i thought you had a prime minister , not a president
Oct 11 23:02:54 <md> not really, but I'll let that slide
Oct 11 23:02:58 <rdrake> white, christian, male... what more could one want?
Oct 11 23:03:02 <md> ooo, he's not a complete write off!
Oct 11 23:03:07 <rdrake> most excellent
Oct 11 23:03:09 <rdrake> now for the name
Oct 11 23:03:13 <sd88g93> what happened to paul oneil ?
Oct 11 23:03:17 <rdrake> who?
Oct 11 23:03:19 <md> wha?
Oct 11 23:03:30 <md> .up
Oct 11 23:03:30 * X3 gives channel operator status to md
Oct 11 23:03:32 <sd88g93> wasnt paul oneil the prime minister ?
Oct 11 23:03:34 * md gives channel half-operator status to md
Oct 11 23:03:36 <rdrake> uh...
Oct 11 23:03:37 * md removes channel operator status from md
Oct 11 23:03:42 <md> no...
Oct 11 23:03:49 <rdrake> not while I was alive
Oct 11 23:03:52 <sd88g93> i must have the name wrong
Oct 11 23:03:54 <md> never actually
Oct 11 23:03:58 <md> paul matin?
Oct 11 23:04:09 <md> **martin
Oct 11 23:04:09 <rdrake> could be him: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_O%27Neill_%28author%29
Oct 11 23:04:10 <sd88g93> oh ok, paul martin that's what i meant
Oct 11 23:04:14 <rdrake> used to be
Oct 11 23:04:15 <md> close
Oct 11 23:04:23 <rdrake> he was the last one, voted out a while ago
Oct 11 23:04:35 <sd88g93> what's the current one ?
Oct 11 23:04:43 <rdrake> Stephen Harper
Oct 11 23:04:44 <sd88g93> i knew it once, but forgot it
Oct 11 23:04:53 <rdrake> Bush Jr.
Oct 11 23:04:55 <sd88g93> Harper is a conservative , right ?
Oct 11 23:04:59 <rdrake> yes
Oct 11 23:05:02 <rdrake> same shit, different pile
Oct 11 23:05:14 <sd88g93> finally ! a conservative in your gov't !
Oct 11 23:05:20 <rdrake> yes, and he's white!
Oct 11 23:05:22 <rdrake> and a christian
Oct 11 23:05:26 <rdrake> and male, goddamn we're good
Oct 11 23:05:42 <rdrake> he's also banned gay marriage and such
Oct 11 23:05:43 <rdrake> good man
Oct 11 23:05:56 >TheFerret< I'm being sarcastic, don't worry
Oct 11 23:06:02 <sd88g93> he got the votes to do that ?
Oct 11 23:06:08 <rdrake> sadly
Oct 11 23:06:20 <md> conservatives are evil, you know that right?
Oct 11 23:06:33 <rdrake> liberals are jerks too
Oct 11 23:06:37 <rdrake> cut millions from my uni
Oct 11 23:06:40 <md> also, canadian politics are much more left then american politics
Oct 11 23:06:41 * rdrake slaps them both
Oct 11 23:06:46 <md> rdrake, voce ndp
Oct 11 23:06:48 <md> **vote
Oct 11 23:06:55 <rdrake> aye, gotta wait 2 years is it?
Oct 11 23:07:08 <rdrake> municipals a month and 2 days away
Oct 11 23:07:11 <md> unless the minority government falls
Oct 11 23:07:21 <rdrake> ...which it probably will
Oct 11 23:08:04 <rdrake> md, did you see the new log cabin I'm building?
Oct 11 23:08:06 <sd88g93> did they legalize cannabis there ? or did that fall through ?
Oct 11 23:08:22 <rdrake> it went through at one point
Oct 11 23:08:27 <rdrake> then bam, voted out
Oct 11 23:09:09 <md> new log cabin?
Oct 11 23:09:11 <md> not!
Oct 11 23:09:15 <md> err... hot!
Oct 11 23:09:18 <rdrake> check it out: http://www.coldspring.govoffice.com/vertical/Sites/%7B01184721-7780-4C87-A564-E6EF5442EC4F%7D/uploads/%7BE081A4B4-B5B0-4126-A6A9-8DB9623A124D%7D.JPG
Oct 11 23:09:21 <rdrake> like that
Oct 11 23:09:30 <md> sweet
Oct 11 23:09:30 <rdrake> needs an outhouse though, my balls are going to freeze off in the winter
Oct 11 23:09:37 <rdrake> at least I have a place to keep my beer though, in the snow
Oct 11 23:09:43 <md> yeah
Oct 11 23:09:47 <md> cold beer is key
Oct 11 23:09:49 <rdrake> and the dogs can come in too, it'll be nice and warm for them
Oct 11 23:09:50 <sd88g93> won't it freeze ?
Oct 11 23:09:52 <rdrake> nah
Oct 11 23:09:59 <rdrake> Canadian beer contains antifreeze
Oct 11 23:10:03 <md> beer doesn't freeze at 0
Oct 11 23:10:09 <rdrake> or - 40
Oct 11 23:10:10 <sd88g93> what kind of beer ?
Oct 11 23:10:19 <md> canadian beer is actualy *strong*, not like american beer
Oct 11 23:10:24 <md> keiths!
Oct 11 23:10:27 <rdrake> no, it's not cold urine
Oct 11 23:10:31 <md> or Upper Canada Dark
Oct 11 23:10:37 <md> maybe even Stella
Oct 11 23:10:55 <sd88g93> my favorite beer is Newcastle, from england
Oct 11 23:11:05 <sd88g93> good brown ale
Oct 11 23:11:09 * Hikaru79__ (Adrian@rn-revecb15.uwaterloo.ca) has joined #compsci.ca
Oct 11 23:11:26 * Minsc (minsc@rn-revneb02.uwaterloo.ca) has joined #compsci.ca
Oct 11 23:11:26 * X3 gives channel operator status to Minsc
Oct 11 23:12:08 <rdrake> my beaver got out this morning
Oct 11 23:12:10 <rdrake> I was pissed
Oct 11 23:12:15 <sd88g93> Molsen beer is pretty light, very weak
Oct 11 23:12:16 <rdrake> and it must've been -10 outside too
Oct 11 23:12:37 <rdrake> md, don't you hate when that happens?
Oct 11 23:12:55 <sd88g93> i hate it when my beavers break loose
Oct 11 23:12:59 <rdrake> same
Oct 11 23:13:00 * Minsc_ has quit (Ping timeout)
Oct 11 23:13:01 <rdrake> bastards
Oct 11 23:13:06 <md> totoally
Oct 11 23:13:13 * Hikaru79_ has quit (Ping timeout)
Oct 11 23:13:14 <md> they are so hard to find too
Oct 11 23:13:15 <rdrake> I chase it with a sharp stick
Oct 11 23:13:21 <rdrake> but it just chews it up
Oct 11 23:13:25 <md> a sharp stick eh?
Oct 11 23:13:27 <rdrake> indeed
Oct 11 23:13:38 <md> I just throw snowbals at mine until he gets bored and comes back in
Oct 11 23:13:46 <rdrake> good idea
Oct 11 23:13:55 <rdrake> they usually try and go for the river though, hide in the den
Oct 11 23:14:00 <rdrake> I smoke 'em out
Oct 11 23:14:12 <sd88g93> are they mean ?
Oct 11 23:14:19 <md> nah
Oct 11 23:14:22 <rdrake> they try to bite, gotta be careful
Oct 11 23:14:22 <md> not if you tame them
Oct 11 23:14:26 <rdrake> but only if you're mean back
Oct 11 23:14:28 <md> yu're bites?
Oct 11 23:14:32 <rdrake> sometimes
Oct 11 23:14:36 <md> I taught mine only to bite my brother
Oct 11 23:14:38 <rdrake> it's a jerk
Oct 11 23:14:46 <rdrake> should bring it over to you, you can train it
Oct 11 23:14:52 <rdrake> after all, you're only a few cabins over
Oct 11 23:15:10 <sd88g93> what part of canada you fellows in ?
Oct 11 23:15:23 <rdrake> Canada's pretty small
Oct 11 23:15:33 <rdrake> we're around the Arctic
Oct 11 23:15:38 <rdrake> that's why it's so damn cold
Oct 11 23:15:50 <md> we get daylight 24 hours a day half hte year
Oct 11 23:15:52 <md> lots of fun
Oct 11 23:15:55 <rdrake> indeed, it's hard to sleep
Oct 11 23:15:56 <sd88g93> yes, i have such high hopes on this global warming idea
Oct 11 23:16:00 <rdrake> takes a while to get used to
Oct 11 23:16:02 <rdrake> oh us too
Oct 11 23:16:07 <md> I dunno
Oct 11 23:16:07 <rdrake> those polar bears terrorize our villages
Oct 11 23:16:15 <rdrake> eating all the seal blubber
Oct 11 23:16:18 <md> but if it's warmer they'll come closer
Oct 11 23:16:21 <rdrake> true
Oct 11 23:16:27 <md> better get more ammo
Oct 11 23:16:31 <rdrake> agreed
Oct 11 23:16:35 <rdrake> I just use a bow and arrow
Oct 11 23:16:45 <rdrake> easier that way
