06:44:07 <Bike> You did not input anything.
06:44:31 <fizzie> It's a bit hard to input those control characters (5, 20) with ideone, I'd guess.
06:45:15 <zanfiln> Bike: Even if you do input something
06:46:11 <zanfiln> http://ideone.com/tx4ETs

06:46:56 <lambdabot> 'Q'
06:46:59 <fizzie> Seems to work out just fine.
06:47:21 <fizzie> As I mentioned, it doesn't do decimal input or output, so you obviously can't just type in "5 20".
06:48:25 <Bike> http://ideone.com/7JDDrm lemme blow your mind, zanfiln
06:50:44 <zanfiln> Bike: But how could you ^ord n after that? :P
06:55:41 <fizzie> Might be easier to do the arithmetics in (multi-cell) decimal too, if you intend to go that way; I think that's how the couple of decimal-numbers-producing brainfuck snippets in fungot do it.

16:22:33 <lambdabot> Consider it noted.
16:22:49 <ais523> hmm, should I add hexham to my weather indicator, as well as birmingham?
16:22:57 <ais523> that way, I could know what the weather was like for you, as well as for me
16:23:13 <shachaf> ais523: And Palo Alto!
16:23:27 <ais523> (having a weather indicator for my current location is surprisingly useful; I often have problems determining whether it's raining even upon looking out of the window)

16:24:09 <oerjan> i have not, alas, detected any swedes in here
16:24:12 <shachaf> I'm on a CALTRAAAAAIN!
16:24:21 <elliott> oerjan: :)
16:24:26 <ais523> btw, in the webapp I'm working on (the one with jsondb, if you remember that)
16:24:26 <olsner> oerjan: the swedes are in sweden, hth
16:24:32 <ais523> I decided to declare it as HTML 4.01 Strict
16:24:39 <ais523> the main difference this made was a couple of pixels at the top of the page
16:24:57 <shachaf> olsner: why would they go there
16:25:09 <ais523> now I'm wondering if I've done the right thing or not
16:25:16 <ais523> also, CSS arithmetic is so draining
16:25:27 <ais523> you have to add all these extra <div>s to your page to make the presentation work properly
16:25:40 <ais523> even though CSS is meant to divorce styling from structure
16:25:41 <shachaf> Why 4.01 Strict?
16:25:48 <ais523> shachaf: I'm not sure
16:25:59 <ais523> I guess it seemed more appropriate than Transitional because I was writing from scratch
16:26:05 <ais523> and newer revisions hadn't been approved yet
16:26:35 <Jafet> I always wonder why web designers proclaim the new liberating and platform-independent ways of CSS while complaining that their new layouts are always a couple of pixels off.
16:28:41 <ais523> Jafet: I don't have that complaint
16:28:51 <ais523> I complain that what I need to do to make it not a couple of pixels off is ridiculously stupid
16:29:12 <ais523> I've actually got a "fix" in mind
16:29:34 <ais523> an extension to CSS which lets you do "width:100%-2em-8px", or whatever
16:29:50 <ais523> together with a preprocessor for CSS+HTML that goes and adds all the necessary extra divs and floats and clears and so on to make that actually work

16:30:14 * oerjan needs to get a proper computer desk _soon_
16:30:24 <Jafet> Someone has probably already done that IN NODE.JS
16:31:10 <ais523> Jafet: that's almost as bad as doing it in jquery
16:31:20 <oerjan> i vaguely recall my laptop wasn't too hot for my lap back when i first got it :(
16:31:31 <Jafet> (I don't really know what NODE.JS does.)
16:31:34 <ais523> (actually I ended up resorting to jquery to generate some of the wrappers at runtime; this thing is so heavily javascript anyway, that I don't feel bad about using JS for layout)
16:31:46 <ais523> Jafet: it's basically a library for writing servers
16:31:54 <ais523> so, server-side javascript
16:32:02 <ais523> just like you have server-side perl or php or asp or whatever
16:32:45 <Jafet> Oh, that sounds like a good idea. Now you only need to hire javascript programmers.

16:48:49 <elliott> ais523: hi
16:48:58 <elliott> ais523: does ubuntu's upgrader thing handle upgrading via ssh
16:49:26 <ais523> elliott: I have upgraded (in the sense of "applied updates" not in the sense of "distro upgrade") over ssh before now
16:49:47 <ais523> sometimes it warns you it's going to drop the connection, then drops the connection
16:49:57 <ais523> but it's always come back up again so far
16:50:15 <ais523> I don't know about a distro upgrade, but I assume it could work
16:50:27 <ais523> because it's just a regular upgrade with the dependency rules changed
16:50:28 <elliott> I mean upgrading a distro version
16:50:38 <elliott> ais523: right but I mean if it upgrades sshd or something in the middle
16:50:40 <elliott> that sounds quite bad
16:50:48 <elliott> because it would presumably kill the updater
16:51:05 <ais523> you'd probably want to nohup the updater just to be sure
16:51:16 <ais523> or use screen, which is like nohup except more interactive
16:54:15 <Jafet> Why are you contemplating using an updater that can't handle failures
16:56:22 <ais523> Jafet: my experience with apt+dpkg is that it's normally very good at giving you paths to recover from failures
16:56:28 <ais523> but what those paths are aren't always obvious
16:56:47 <ais523> also, they need around 400 kilobytes of free disk space to work correctly, over the amount needed for the actual packages
