[00:08:36] <SoylentSnow> I noticed the queue was really low, so I put in a couple stories. It's been a while... I hope I didn't screw anything up, but if I did, please let me know.
[00:41:21] <Bytram> SoylentSnow: Hey! So good to see you "back in the saddle"... and THANKS!
[00:42:40] <Bytram> 2nding DEFCAD
[00:44:01] <Bytram> Looked good!

[00:45:09] <Bytram> Looks good
[00:45:24] <Bytram> 2nding Lorcasein
[00:50:51] <Bytram> Added a couple paragraph tags (<p>) -- why does the BBC insist on having only one sentence per paragraph?
[00:51:20] <Bytram> SoylentSnow: All stories looked good! Only a couple minor tweaks... well done, and thanks again!

[02:44:51] <mrpg> hi :)
[02:45:00] <Bytram> h'lo
[02:45:06] * Bytram is working on tmob data breach
[02:45:11] <Bytram> how ya doin?
[02:45:24] <mrpg> fine.
[02:45:42] <Bytram> lemme guess... of coarse?
[02:45:44] <Bytram> ;)
[02:45:52] <mrpg> hey, I have an English question.
[02:46:27] <Bytram> go ahead.
[02:47:10] <mrpg> For people there's a difference between "what do you look like" (appearance) and "what are you like" (personality). Does this difference exists for objects?
[02:47:43] <Bytram> Possibly. Do you have an example in mind?
[02:47:51] <mrpg> How should I answer "what is your house like"?
[02:48:12] <Bytram> cozy and comfortable
[02:48:28] <mrpg> And no big, pretty?
[02:49:16] <Bytram> well, it's pretty big. =)
[02:49:28] <Bytram> depends more on WHO you are talking to, I think?
[02:49:46] <Bytram> are they a busy-body who just wants to one-up whatever you have?
[02:49:59] <mrpg> It's a question on a test.
[02:50:03] <chromas> Where'd you get that redirectingat.com link?
[02:50:03] <Bytram> then just use terms that suggest it is what you really liked
[02:50:06] <Bytram> oh.
[02:50:15] <Bytram> tmob breach story
[02:50:45] <chromas> Seems to be blocked by uMatrix
[02:50:54] <Bytram> nod nod
[02:50:57] <mrpg> So I don't know what is the correct way to answer, personality (of the house like cozy etc) or appeareance.
[02:51:32] <chromas> If you're selling, go with personality unless it's yuge
[02:51:52] <mrpg> No, it's just a question on an English test.
[02:52:05] <mrpg> I don't know what to answer.
[02:52:06] <Bytram> heh... "None of your damned business! Why the hell do YOU want to know?"
[02:52:18] <Bytram> sorry, couldn't resists
[02:52:23] <Bytram> I know you are being sincere
[02:52:30] <Bytram> essay question?
[02:52:39] <Bytram> like it's expecting aparagraph or so ?
[02:52:40] <mrpg> I thought big was the correct answer. Houses have no personality. Unlees you count the amytiville house ;)
[02:52:53] <mrpg> A simple sentence is the expected answer.
[02:53:09] <Bytram> and the *exact* question?
[02:53:25] <mrpg> What is your house like?
[02:53:56] <Bytram> My house is small, but comfortable and easy to maintain.
[02:55:04] <chromas> Personality would be bs feelings you'd try to associate with it to make it sell for more. Instead of "small", it's "cozy"
[02:55:05] <Bytram> My house is so big, I have my own "Man Cave" and my wife has her own spa... never mind the theater room with a big screen TV and powerful sound system!
[02:56:06] <mrpg> So both things apply? physical and 'feelings'?
[02:56:23] * mrpg joins #english
[02:56:36] * mrpg joins #ESL
[02:57:19] * Bytram is amazed at all the work you have done here on SoylentNews, even more impressive if English is your second language!
[02:57:31] <chromas> I didn't see the original question. /me just scrooled back
[02:58:17] <mrpg> I began to study English at fourth grade, that's like 10 years old.
[02:58:19] <Bytram> ===> What is your house like?
[02:58:52] <mrpg> And I had a lot of dictionaries to help me :-)
[02:59:02] <mrpg> Merriam Webster, Apleton-cUyas, etc.
[02:59:07] <Bytram> that's the ticket!
[02:59:37] <Bytram> It's like trying to figure out a recipe for, say, Snickerdoodle Cookies
[02:59:45] <mrpg> I had a pocket one, it was small, like 3 inches long maybe
[03:00:07] <Bytram> Look it up in several cookbooks and see what things are held mostly constant and what things vary, and then go from there.
[03:00:21] <mrpg> And everything computer-related was in English in the 80s so, also that.
[03:00:37] <chromas> damn, missed my chance to !grab

[03:01:57] <Bytram> I didn't know DropBox were dropping Linux support... first I've heard of it. (The again, I don't use it, either)
[03:02:42] <mrpg> update: not really
[03:04:44] <Bytram> mrpg: I do not know if there is a *correct* answer to the question. Depending on the context of the other questions, I suspect it is just an opportunity for you to show that you can construct a grammatically-correct, readable, and informative sentence, possibly including a little flair if you are of a mind to do so.
[03:05:10] <Bytram> My house it has three corners, three corners has my house... No wait. that was my *hat*
[03:05:23] <Bytram> My house is as snug as a bug in a rug.
[03:05:41] <chromas> A tri-corner hat? Do you have a hell?
[03:05:49] <chromas> s/h/b/3
[03:05:51] <exec> <chromas> A tri-corner hat? Do you have a bell?
[03:06:02] <Bytram> My house is my home; more than large enough for my needs but not so large as to be a burden to keep it maintained.
[03:06:10] <mrpg> The question is in the lesson about "look like" and "what are you like". Well the lesson is adjectives really. I'll ask m-w, let's see if they answer.
[03:06:25] <mrpg> I reported a typo in a definition! they said thank you.
[03:06:40] <chromas> Did they fix it tho?
[03:06:57] <Bytram> My house is a Cape Cod with blue shutters and shrubbery all around it.
[03:07:13] <mrpg> Yes they did, next day.
[03:07:13] <Bytram> oh... hmmm...
[03:07:45] <Bytram> The y prolly misspelled supercalifragilisticexpialidocious
[03:07:49] <mrpg> My house is 50 square mts. That's like... I dont know feet. 454?
[03:08:40] <Bytram> 50 x (39.37/12)**2
[03:09:18] <Bytram> that was close... I came up with 538
[03:10:11] <Bytram> mrpg: It depends... which of my houses are you interested in?
[03:10:41] <Bytram> then really crank it up a notch...
[03:11:49] <mrpg> The most cozy haha
[03:12:02] <mrpg> The best prepared for the zombie apocalypse
[03:12:05] <Bytram> mrpg: It depends... which of my houses are you interested in? The cozy little bungalo by the lake, or the McMansion that is nearer the city where I hold lavish parties? Or maybe the cute little place in the city that I can retire to after a long day at work and relax with my mistress?
[03:12:46] <Bytram> minor edits
[03:15:21] <Bytram> It depends... Which of my houses are you interested in? The cozy little 1950's bungalo by the lake? Or the luxurious 3-story McMansion that is in the suburbs and where my wife and I hold lavish parties? Or maybe the cute little place in the city where I can retire to after work and relax with my mistress?
[03:15:53] <mrpg> The first
[03:16:27] <chromas> It's a trap!
[03:16:44] <chromas> House by the lake == murder location
[03:16:47] <Bytram> that is so over the top it is ridiculous, but it shows a grasp of the language, an ability to distinguish between different things (houses) but also show their different uses, and also employs a sense of humor.

[03:17:27] <MrPlow> https://en.wikipedia.org - "Killed Until Dead is a 1986 adventure game developed by Artech and published by Accolade. It was released on Amstrad CPC, Apple II, Commodore 64, and ZX ..."

[03:17:35] <Bytram> mrpg: I don't think you understand... I am suggesting what I just posted as being an over-the-top, outlandish answer.

[03:18:06] <Bytram> or do a counter strike
[03:18:07] <chromas> tree fiddy
[03:18:17] <mrpg> I understood, the word lavish was the key haha
[03:18:38] <Bytram> well, don't hit the granite countertops too hard... they could crack
[03:18:58] <mrpg> My fllor is granite, checkmate.
[03:19:01] <mrpg> floor
[03:19:01] <Bytram> that means it is like lava, right? ;)
[03:19:17] <mrpg> sure, the floor is lava
[03:19:24] <Bytram> Well, that is "hard" to beat.
[03:19:40] <Bytram> ah... your secret volcano lair? Aha!
[03:20:01] * Bytram scurries over and kidnaps the fluffy white cat
[03:20:45] <mrpg> My cat is purple so no one will suspect anything. I have seen one too many inspector gadget episodes to know that.
[03:21:06] <mrpg> I'll do "A smartphone application can help in screening..."
[03:21:18] <Bytram> a *purple* cat? What DO you feed it?
[03:21:36] <mrpg> Unicorn's hair.
[03:21:51] <Bytram> and I was going to guess eggplants
[03:22:23] <mrpg> And a fucshia one poops on android's source code.
[03:22:32] <Bytram> Touche'
[03:23:35] <Bytram> well, it's getting well into nighttime for me and I am on vacation this week, so I think it is time that I turn in and get me to sleep.

[03:27:29] <Bytram> oh.
[03:28:54] <mrpg> I'll wait for the dictionary people, heirs of Webster.
[03:29:10] <Bytram> My house is like a big pile of bricks, planks, nails, doors, and screws -- but much better organized.
[03:29:40] * Bytram tends to be a literalist
[03:30:08] <Bytram> I suspect the question is more on the side of looking for a touchy-feely response
[03:30:16] <Bytram> What is my house like?
[03:31:00] <mrpg> I think they want one of two:
[03:31:09] <mrpg> big (appearance)
[03:31:48] <mrpg> or peaceful (sort of like personality) as in "what are you like" or "what do you look like"
[03:32:00] <Bytram> It's a comfortable, 20-year-old Cape Cod that is starting to show its age, but is comfortable and cozy in all the right places for my family and me.
[03:32:32] <Bytram> It's a comfortable, 3-bedroom, 2-bath Cape Cod that is starting to show its age, but is comfortable and cozy in all the right places for my family and me.
[03:32:44] <Bytram> It's a comfortable, 3-bedroom, 2-bath Cape Cod that is starting to show its age, but it's comfortable and cozy in all the right places for my family and me.

[03:33:35] * Bytram equivocates, yet again, and answers both questions with one sentence
[03:33:35] <mrpg> I have a balcony
[03:33:42] <Bytram> don't jump
[03:33:51] <mrpg> It has bars.
[03:33:57] <Bytram> so do jails
[03:34:16] <Bytram> bars also have booze, does yours have that, too?
[03:34:40] <mrpg> just water, no alcohol.

[03:35:01] <mrpg> No alcohol only hydrogen peroxide
[03:35:03] <Bytram> I am so sorry... my mind is on a wicked, free-association tear this evening.
[03:35:26] <Bytram> I am not at all *trying* to mess you up.
[03:35:45] <mrpg> Stop drinking coffee!
[03:35:52] <Bytram> I think just take it as a simple question and don't over-analyze it.
[03:36:26] <Bytram> Say you are at a party, re-union, or whatever and someone asks what your house is like. What would you say?
[03:38:14] <Bytram> Oh, and the reason I popped back in, is that I saw someone was looking at a story that came from "Science Digest" and wanted to warn them to scroll down and grab the link to the original source that is often included just after the "body text", but this particular story did not have a link to the source materials. Is also a good location to copy the Journal reference while I'm at it.

[12:12:14] <Bytram> hmmm, interesting point.
[12:12:26] <takyon> Probably you will end up opening the link anyway, so copying the paragraphs you want at the source is not so bad
[12:13:28] <takyon> the only big advantage seems to be that it can include links automatically
[12:13:34] <Bytram> I generally do a drag-select / view source / copy... but then I need to clean up a few things depending on the site
[12:14:38] <Bytram> takyon: BTW, and I have been remiss in not paying attention along the way... You have 4424 submissions? Absolutely Amazing!!!
[12:14:46] <takyon> btw I was thinking of making a new submission assistant type of thing that could be hosted on the site
[12:14:55] <takyon> it would almost certainly be based on javascript though
[12:15:18] <Bytram> ooooh.... give it a link and it chews and prepares a submission?
[12:16:07] <Bytram> and your submissions are out of (atm) 23,667 stories posted...
[12:16:20] <takyon> not necessarily. I wanted to focus on discovery of content using RSS, and then include a submission template similar to my more dense ones
[12:16:22] <Bytram> of which I am sure many are deep-sixed and/or NOT display.
[12:17:13] <Bytram> IOW, you have personally submitted better than 16% of all stories that have appeared on the site.
[12:17:30] <takyon> it's not something to be proud of. we need more submitters
[12:17:32] <Bytram> I know when I see one of your subs, my life is a lot easier -- I can't thank you enough!
[12:17:36] <takyon> which is why I want to make this tool

[12:35:53] <Bytram> Interesting... especially the part about: "Other text. Always submit as Plain Old Text."
[12:36:22] <Bytram> Don't think I ever used that except to find out that I prefer to have more control with my own HTML markup
[12:37:10] <Bytram> Would have to see it "in action" to fully understand... i.e. see a few stories that got fed into it, and what came out.
[12:37:38] <Bytram> hmm

[12:44:13] <takyon> bytram: the reason you always submit as Plain Old Text is because line breaks automatically turn into <p> and <br> as needed
[12:44:34] <takyon> so you can use anchor, blockquote, bold, etc. tags without having to worry about line breaks
[12:44:40] <Bytram> IIRC, don't they appear on separate lines from the actual paragraph text?
[12:44:41] <Bytram> <p>
[12:44:45] <Bytram> Some stuff

[12:45:22] <Bytram> Nice to know... that's one part of the code that I never sat down to test.
[12:45:48] <Bytram> There's a lot more "under the covers" than meets the eye to an average user, that's for sure!

[12:47:14] <takyon> yes, i don't think "plain old text" makes much sense to a new user when you can use most of the HTML you want in it
[12:47:42] <takyon> I think many of our users disagree that everything needs HTTPS

[15:11:51] <Bytram> okay, pushed out 3 more stories... I am on vacation this week, so hopefully the rest of the team can carry on from here.
[15:12:25] <Bytram> Got a lot accomplished in the past two days, but still have more to go and would also like to lay around and do nothing once or twice, too. =)

[15:25:39] <takyon> its presumptuous
[18:03:06] <Snow> Can someone take a peek at the killer robot story? I found another, better article covering it. Not sure how to integrate that link into the submission. Is what I have there good, or should it be done another way?
[18:03:48] <Snow> (I'm talking about The Verge link at the bottom)
[18:04:24] <Snow> I'll be heading out for lunch. But I'll be back in a bit.
[21:23:46] <Bytram> takyon: I see your point. I'm open to ideas to bypass the obvious Betteridge Law of Headlines reply "No" to: "Should Apple Buy Tesla" -- what would you have used, instead?
[21:26:03] <Bytram> Snow: I'm not sure what the problem is? Looks okay to me, but it looks like takyon already took a stab at it.
[21:26:24] * Bytram looks at the original submission... ahhhh, I see.
