11:42 <@Dagmar> wow
11:43 <@Dagmar> Came across a perl script in production today at work, that's just chock full of newbisms like prototypes and string comparators (like gt) being used against numbers, etc etc
11:43 <@Dagmar> This thing uses getopts::long and has like three subs
11:44 <@shapr> GOOD MORNING
11:44  * shapr hugs Shadow404
11:44 <@Dagmar> One typically short "primary" sub, and a giant one that both processes the options as well as does most of the actual work, so it's with good reason that it's indented like 9 levels deep
11:44 <@Dagmar> WHo coded this monstrosity?
11:44 <@Dagmar> Apparently my boss
11:44 <@Dagmar> *facepalm*
11:45 <@wilpig> Dagmar: be sure to mention that to him
11:45 <@Dagmar> I'm going to have to
11:46 <@Dagmar> Let me show you something.
11:46 <@Dagmar> if ( (defined($opt_environment)) && (length($opt_environment) gt 0) ) {
11:46 <@Dagmar> Wrap your head around that baby.
11:47 <@Dagmar> gt?  What?  Really?
11:47 <@Dagmar> That's a string comparator.
11:47 <@wilpig> if it were php that would avoid it throwing a warning if you tried to check the length of $opt_environment and it wasn't set
11:47 <@Corydon76-home> Well, it'll work...
11:47 <@Dagmar> So we're looking to see if the variable is defined and that it's not "" apparently
11:48 <@Corydon76-home> Or starts with a space
11:48 <@Dagmar> It's coming from getopts so... unlikely
11:48 <@Corydon76-home> Or really, any character prior to chr(48)
11:48 <@Dagmar> ...but either way...
11:48 <@Dagmar> dafuq.  Seriously.
11:49 <@Dagmar> There are simpler ways to do that
11:49 <@Dagmar> Whether or not it's defined, we can ignore because getopts
11:50 <@Corydon76-home> Looks like the writer translated from a strictly typed language
11:50 <@Corydon76-home> Or didn't understand that Perl translates as necessary
11:50 <@Dagmar> Yes, there's my favorite use strict; up near the top
11:51 <@Corydon76-home> One of our rules here is that anything in production needs 'use strict'
11:51 <@Corydon76-home> As well as handling errors that are only possible if the network experienced a catastrophic failure
11:51 -!- K4k [~K4k@unaffiliated/k4k] has joined #se2600
11:51 <@Dagmar> One of my rules is that if you *need* use strict you aren't paying close enough attention
11:52 <@Corydon76-home> Eh, even seasoned programmers sometimes make typos
11:52 <@Dagmar> ...but what kills me is that line could be reduced to if ($opt_environment) {
11:52 <@Dagmar> Done in one
11:53 <@Corydon76-home> 9 levels deep would be what I would consider to be the more serious problem
11:53 <@Dagmar> Yes, there's that as well, but I suspect some of this is due to insane checks like what led him to explicitly checking whether or not opt_environment is defined
11:53 <@Corydon76-home> There _is_ code that may require it, but such code usually has some pretty serious computation
11:54 <@Dagmar> Corydon76-home: It literally doesn't call any other sub blocks is why
11:54 <@Dagmar> It's basically one program stuffed into a sub for parsing the command-line argumemnts

11:54 <@klixak> hey
11:54 <@wilpig> don't do it.  it's a trap!
11:54 <@Dagmar> Insufficient grasp of language, bad architecture...
11:55 <@Corydon76-home> Dagmar: that's rather funny, actually
11:55 <@Dagmar> FUck me
11:55 <@Dagmar>  system "$sudo_bin $ssh_bin $_ $bip_bin pool $opt_pool\n";
11:55 <@Dagmar> *facepalm*
11:55 <@Dagmar> OKay.  I've had enough of gazinng into the abyss.  TIme for a cigarette
11:55  * shapr lights Dagmar on FIRE
11:55 <@shapr> no wait

12:11 <@Dagmar> I really can't think of any cases where you'd generally _want_ to use a string, unless it's firing off one fixed command.

12:27 <@klixa> shapr: how are things with you?
12:27 <@shapr> klixa: this weekend I gave a talk on neopixels and went to an Ingress bbq in Hunstville, it was fun!
12:28 <@klixa> ingress?
12:28 <@klixa> is that real life? or a game?
12:29 <@shapr> klixa: it's a game
12:30 <@shapr> IN REAL LIFE
12:30 <@klixa> WHAT!?!?!?!?!
12:30 <@klixa> its a game...its real life...its a rela life game.... aACK
12:30 < frsilent> anyone following the international?
12:30 <@shapr> Oh, one of my friends is trying to get me onto his DragonCon panel talking about electronics in costuming, I might get to talk about NeoPixels even more!
12:30 <@shapr> He got me on his PlayOnCon costuming/electronics panel, but then I squished my car :-(
12:32 <@klixa> you squished your new car?
12:32 <@shapr> no, the old one
12:33 <@shapr> so I couldn't go to either LibertyCon or PlayOnCon! I was sad.
12:33 <@shapr> My new car is great!
12:35 < RangerZ|Laptop1> so someone at sun circa 2005 just trolled me...
12:35 < RangerZ|Laptop1> "An implementation-reserved node. This is the not the node you are looking for."
12:36 < RangerZ|Laptop1> "but i thought it was *sad face*"
12:36 < RangerZ|Laptop1> lol
12:37 <@klixa> im dl-ing ingress
12:38 < RangerZ|Laptop1> klixa: play as green, that way you aren't a "smurft"
12:38 < RangerZ|Laptop1> "smurf"*
12:39 < RangerZ|Laptop1> lol
12:39 <@shapr> klixa: yeah, play as green!
12:39 <@shapr> cause we're way more awesome

12:54 <@klixa> err shapr
12:54 <@shapr> klixa: green!
12:54 <@shapr> because green is awesome
12:54 <@klixa> but i like the color blue better :/
12:54 <@klixa> but i like what green is doing better
12:54 <@shapr> you have to choose for yourself...
12:55 <@klixa> i need to look into them both
12:55 <@shapr> I went with the green because I like what they're doing better
12:55 < RangerZ|Laptop1> same
12:55 < RangerZ|Laptop1> and klixa don't be racist
12:55 < RangerZ|Laptop1> don't pick your friends based on color alone
12:56 <@klixa> lol
12:56 < RangerZ|Laptop1> pick them on what we tell you is better
12:56 < RangerZ|Laptop1> DUH
12:56 <@shapr> ha
12:58 <@klixa> ok i picked green
12:58 <@shapr> yay!
12:59 <@shapr> your agent name is klixa, right?
12:59 <@klixa> yes
12:59 <@shapr> cool!
12:59 <@shapr> I wish I could send capsules across links to other people
12:59 <@shapr> that would be nifty
13:00 <@shapr> The local troll Ingress player tore down my links and fields from 7:30am to 10:30am
13:01 <@Dolemite> It really depends on the area you're in.  In Nashville, the smurfs are the biggest asshats.  In Knoxville, the frogs are the biggest asshats.
13:01 <@Dolemite> I myself am a smurf
13:01 <@shapr> Huntsville has a bunch of really cool players on both sides.
13:01 <@shapr> Here in the Muscle Shoals/Florence area everybody is cool except that one guy, mycroftx
13:06 <@klixa> if i have an image as a background in a css them, what variable tells it to start on the bottom?
13:06  * shapr doesn't know
13:06 <@klixa> yeah, i dont know either
13:07 <@klixa> i think it might be the x,y coordinates
13:07 <@klixa> but... i dont know how to use them exactly
13:07 <@shapr> try it?
13:07 <@shapr> If you have the webdev tools installed on chrome you can edit attributes and see the changes in realtime
13:07 <@klixa> wait... i think i figured it out
13:07 <@klixa> nope
13:07 <@klixa> hmmm
13:08 <@klixa> no, wait it did work
13:08 <@klixa> just didnt rfresh instantly
13:08 <@klixa> sooooo much better
13:08 <@klixa> i have an image as the bg for my irc them...but only text on the bottom of the pic is easily readable...so if i resize the window...i can or cnat read it
13:09 <@klixa> but now....no matter what size i make window i can read text
13:09 <@shapr> sounds like the way chrome themes work
13:10 <@klixa> they probably use css too?
13:11 <@wilpig> klixa: backgound-position
13:12 <@klixa> "background: #000 url(foodarker.jpg) repeat-x fixed 0 bottom;"  <--- is what i did
13:13 <@klixa> 0 bottom is what i had to change
13:14 <@wilpig> that's a combined line.  you can specify it as background-position: x x

13:34 <@Dagmar> From http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1849329/is-there-a-perl-shortcut-to-count-the-number-of-matches-in-a-string:
13:34 <@Dagmar> Someone suggested my $number = () = $string =~ /\./gi;
13:35 <@Dagmar> The next person deobfuscated it a bit to remove '= () =' and one of their commenters says: "+1 for the most straightforward way, goatse operator is scary."

13:37 < RangerZ|Laptop> lol
13:39 <@Dagmar> I just came across some code my boss wrote that reeks of fresh newb, and I needed to find something explaining more succinctly how to use regexps to return a bool and why
13:39 <@Dagmar> ...then I foudn that page
13:40 <@Dagmar> Like, you can load the multi-line output of a command into an array dn then foreach your way down it, with flag variables and all the trimmings, or you can just load the entire damn thing into a variable and simply return the value of one regexp operation
13:48 < RangerZ|Laptop> ohh thats nothing... I was helping a "grad student" (I don't expect him to make it all the way to PhD... he just has no curiosity on his own)... who didn't know what "import" in java did
13:49 < RangerZ|Laptop> he just used the Eclipse "fix imports" tool, and was done with it
13:50 < RangerZ|Laptop> had NO idea what so ever... for what they did... thought something silly like... importing who 'can' call my code..or something... to be be honest... I kinda stopped listening at that point... b/c the blood to my ears drained for self-preservation

19:37 <@Dagmar> Man... Some girl had a baby arctic fox at Bongo.  Five weeks old.
19:38 <@Dagmar> So very cute but my first thought was "What the fuck is wrong with this puppy"
19:38 <@Dagmar> Long like a ferret
19:38 <@Dagmar> *really* long tail
19:38 <@Shadow404> thats just cruel
19:38 <@Shadow404> a wild animal should be kept wild
19:39 <@Shadow404> chances are the owner will not be able to control it once it gets older and isnt so cute anymore by its actions/behavior alone
19:43 <@Shadow404> damn, the more i think about it, i wanna smack that bitch
19:43 <@Dagmar> Dude, it's a fox
19:43 <@Dagmar> They actually domesticate pretty well
19:43 <@Shadow404> yeah, a wild animal
19:43 <@Dagmar> It's _wolf_ breeds that are problematic
19:43 <@Shadow404> ....
19:44 <@Dagmar> Racoons and foxes get along fine with humans
19:44 <@Dagmar> Hell, racoons have been known to purr like cats
19:44 <@Shadow404> i still define some house cats as wild, but thats a nuturing issue with the owner
19:44 <@Dagmar> Wolves are problematic because their adrenal glands make them fairly damn aggressive when they grow up
19:44 <@Shadow404> not related
19:45 <@Shadow404> Dagmar: yeah, no kidding, you have to know what your doing around wolves
19:45 <@Corydon76-home> Dagmar: actually, from someone who's had a fox, they're fine, if you have a large enough outdoor area for them to play.  They will otherwise dig up the carpeting and scratch up the hardwood floors in your house
19:45 <@Shadow404> what Corydon76-home just said is my issue
19:45 <@Corydon76-home> Foxes are hole diggers
19:45 <@Shadow404> like people owning wild breeds that have apartments
19:47 <@Dagmar> http://dagmar.isamotherfucking.ninja/~dagmar/babyfox.jpg http://dagmar.isamotherfucking.ninja/~dagmar/babyfox1.jpg
19:49 <@Corydon76-home> I don't deny that foxes, like alligators or pretty much any wild animal, are cute when they're young.  It's when they grow up and get a whole lot bigger that they present a problem
19:49 <@Dagmar> I've seen regular foxes full-sized as a pet before
19:50 <@Dagmar> On a farmhold mind you but still very much a domesticated animal
19:50 <@Corydon76-home> The fox had lots of space to play, correct?
19:50 <@Dagmar> Banjo country south of Lebanon, so yes
19:51 <@Dagmar> It did prefer to sleep indoors and had no problems walking right up to me
19:51 <@Corydon76-home> That's the key.  You can only get so much of the wild out of the animal
19:51 <@Dagmar> I was like 'Uhhh.. Jason... There's wildlife here man."
19:51 <@Shadow404> was this a fenced outdoors or free reign?
19:52 <@Dagmar> Thing came right up to me like it was nothing
19:52 <@Corydon76-home> Dude, I had a baby squirrel climb up my jeans leg while I was at Vanderbilt.  It was still a wild squirrel.
19:52 <@Shadow404> out of curiosity
19:52 <@Dagmar> Well, it also had a seat right there on the porch and waited for Jason to come out

19:52 <@Dagmar> Like... "Hmm... you're new.  *sniff sniff*.  *plops down*"
19:52 <@Corydon76-home> If you feed any animal on a regular basis, it will hang around and wait for more.
19:53 <@Dagmar> This guys fox pretty much thought it was a cat

19:53 <@Dagmar> Raised with cats even
19:53 <@Shadow404> kinda how we began domesticating wolves
19:53 <@Corydon76-home> My macaw parrot thinks it's a cat, too
19:53 <@Shadow404> fed them, they stayed, fed them more, kept them war
19:53 <@Shadow404> *warm
19:53 <@Shadow404> they adapted
19:54 <@Dagmar> Well, with that it's a matter of we kept the less bitey ones until we got the ones with the weakest adrenaline responses
19:54 <@Dagmar> Some russians replicated that a few years ago in less than ten generations
19:54 <@Shadow404> yeah, selective breeding
19:54 <@Corydon76-home> It's rather odd, to me, that we have a bird that prefers to walk across the carpet
19:54 <@Shadow404> that was featured on cosmos
19:54 <@Shadow404> kinda cool
19:54 <@Shadow404> he explained it really well
19:54 <@Dagmar> Corydon76-home: Birds are generally doin' their own damn thing no matter how crazy it looks
19:55 <@Corydon76-home> Yes, just like cats.
19:55 <@Dagmar> I've seen cats be self-concious about it.
19:55 <@Dagmar> I had a budgie once that liked to hang upside down sometimes, and it watched game shows
19:55 <@Corydon76-home> And the Siberian Husky is a big pussy, if you'll forgive the phrase
19:55 <@Dagmar> It looooved Wheel of Fortune
19:56 <@Dagmar> It would go *apeshit* when people won
19:56 <@Corydon76-home> The dog is scared of rabbits and birds alike.
19:56 <@Dagmar> Also you did not turn off the TV until the program was over or the parakeet would have "words" for you about it
19:57 <@Shadow404> my husky (not siberian) hates any explosions, mostly fireworks
19:57 <@Dagmar> Mom didn't believe the thing was actually watching TV until I did that to show her
19:57 <@Corydon76-home> Oh, he hates those, too
19:57 <@Shadow404> hides at my feet usually and cries
19:57 <@Corydon76-home> Pretty much any animal hates fireworks
19:57 <@Shadow404> my beagle, is like whatever

20:00 <@Shadow404> chrome and google scare me sometimes, i set a reminder and my phone and a monitor popup alerted the same exact second
20:05 <@Dagmar> I'm using Google Voice but they've at least clamped down a bit on that
20:05 <@Dagmar> If my PC thinks it has a headset nearby, my damn browser rings
20:05 <@Dagmar> The phone doesn't ring until I fail to answer the browser
20:06 <@Shadow404> heh, that can be annoying
20:06 <@Shadow404> what did they clamp down on?
20:11 < aestetix_> speaking of clamps, Shadow404 how is life?
20:11 <@Shadow404> i dont see how that applies to me looking for a new job, but ok
20:11 < aestetix_> looking for a new job?
20:12 <@Shadow404> really tired of commuting every day for what i could EASILY do from home
20:12 <@Dagmar> Originaly "my everything" rang at once
20:12 <@Dagmar> Tablet, phone, browser, and goddamn television
20:12 <@Shadow404> not leaving this one till i find a new one, but im getting pretty tired of 40min in the morning, hour coming home
20:12 <@Shadow404> Dagmar: yeah, i noticed that too
20:13 <@Shadow404> i usually use google voice for outbound though
20:35 <@Dagmar> Well, I let it do the "integration" thing since I'm on Sprint and it works okay
20:35 <@Dagmar> ...although the voice transcription is like something from a fucking fun house.
20:35 <@Dagmar> It is *so* hilariously bad
20:36 <@Dagmar> If you look at the transcription through the website, anything in grey basically means 'the engine just picked some random fucking words here because your friends all mumble."
20:38 <@Dagmar> Sample: "You never kissed and they years, cos he said he couldn't believe it was saying the word out a little girls. Well, we'll see if you think so. She is so cute. And she's so sweet. If you were still able to get a chance to go to sleep. Stay updated look around. So far the dogs or scare her resume. She is the about that I was I going to be real careful actor whatever goes with it. But. It looks like a go to bed."
20:38 <@Dagmar> You will swear you have unmedicated schizophrenics sending you SMS
20:50 < RangerZ|Laptop> Dagmar: you don't?
20:50 < RangerZ|Laptop> we all figured crazy pants was messaging you at least twice an hour
21:10 <@Dagmar> I have no explanation for this http://www.hardwaresecrets.com/article/Does-Mayonnaise-Last-as-a-Thermal-Compound/1793
21:11 <@Dagmar> That's not linkbait.
21:11 <@Dagmar> If you scream a little after reading that, it's okay

21:29 < RangerZ|Laptop> Dagmar: if thats true... might mean that fat based thermal compounds might be possible
21:30 <@Dagmar> No it still means they're stupid
21:31 < RangerZ|Laptop> would be interesting to do some experiments with micro-blobs of fat-like substance, but under 'real' scientific situation
21:32 <@Dagmar> Except organic compounds break down under heat like that, afaik
21:36 < RangerZ|Laptop> yeah, thats why I was thinking the new created-organic-like creations

22:03 < RangerZ|Laptop> link btw
22:04 <@Dagmar> Most of us would already do that
22:04 <@Dagmar> ...which is why we get watched
22:04 < RangerZ|Laptop> yeah
22:05 < RangerZ|Laptop> https://xkcd.com/525/ this shit isn't 'funny' to us... its reality, lol
22:06 <@Dagmar> THe problem it comes down to is that if you make a tool to let someone who doesn't know what they're doing broadcast anonymously, someone's going to built a tool that defeats it
22:07 <@Dagmar> So basically, you have to be ingeneous and keep changing how you do it
22:09 <@Dagmar> s/built/build/
22:10 <@Dagmar> So, a leaker would need to somehow find a trustworthy hacker who's willing to take on a bit of risk
22:11 <@Dagmar> Particularly one who isn't going to punk out and bail
22:11 <@Dagmar> Not so easy to find on the Snowden level of things
22:12 <@Dagmar> This is why the metadata thing is a _serious_ fucking problem
22:13 <@Dagmar> ...because the spooks can absolutely narrow the list of people to lean on from the general population of adults in the US to about 20,000 people real fucking fast, and then go from there
22:14 <@Dagmar> You can't get the covert channel established without a covert channel pre-established, because the element of suprise can be retroactively redacted by Orwellian fucking monitoring systems
22:14 <@Dagmar> ...and then they send out men in shiny chrome hays to fuck people up
22:14 <@Dagmar> s/hays/hats/
22:15 < RangerZ|Laptop> yep
22:22 < RangerZ|Laptop> apparently arron schwartz last project was a digital dead-drop that journalists would keep up and running
22:26 <@Dagmar> Suuure he killed himself.
22:26 <@Dagmar> ...and it's a major fucking issue that one can't argue that that is outside the realm of possibility
22:27 <@Dagmar> In other news http://www.today.com/parents/test-scores-will-not-tell-you-everything-read-viral-letter-1D79933379
22:27 <@Dagmar> Now tell me, if you got that letter, would you or would you not expect that the next page is informing you that your child is retarded?
22:30 < RangerZ|Laptop> wtf
22:30 < RangerZ|Laptop> god I need to enter decision making for education
