[23:43:35] <Bytram> fyngyrz =) =) =)
[23:43:45] <Bytram> oops
[23:43:50] <Bytram> fyngyrz++ =) =) =)
[23:43:50] <Bender> karma - fyngyrz: 11
[23:43:55] <Bytram> thas bettah
[23:47:26] <fyngyrz> if you have a github account, you can do this yourself... it's blindingly easy
[23:47:34] <Bytram> it's preliminary, but I *think* I might have coded up a delta date calculator... atm there is one part dependent on 32-bit unix time, but that can be (if I am not mistaken) relatively easily rectified to handle dates any time after 0 AD (with a hack needed for that weird september I showed you earlier)
[23:48:09] <Bytram> I prolly do, but I absolutely *despise* the "mystery meat navigation" they have on their site.
[23:48:13] <fyngyrz> leap years and leap seconds?

[23:48:56] <Bytram> I gotta know where on the page some icon does what I want it to do what I want; give me CLI over that every day.
[23:49:54] <fyngyrz> well, of course you can run git completely from the command line
[23:50:46] <Bytram> oooooops, my bad. I mean github.
[23:51:06] <Bytram> the other thing is that it lacks a consistent grammar.
[23:51:11] <fyngyrz> but, I mean y0ou dont' have to actually go to github once you're able to submit to the project
[23:51:53] <Bytram> say what you will about it vs netware, but lan manager was heads and shoulders far more discoverable and self-consistent than anything that novell or banyan ever came up with.
[23:52:08] <Bytram> ears perk up
[23:52:11] <Bytram> huh?
[23:52:15] <Bytram> how do I do that?
[23:52:38] <fyngyrz> yeah... you install git on your machine... you grab the project... make any cchanges you want, and from the cmd line, submit the changes
[23:52:49] <fyngyrz> likewise, you can update your copy easily
[23:52:52] <chromas> Yeah but can you star projects and leave comments from git :D
[23:53:12] <Bytram> oh, wait. I forgot. My linux vm got hosed. :(
[23:53:16] <fyngyrz> no, it's not a github interface, it's a git interfac
[23:53:24] <fyngyrz> well, dont' worry about it
[23:53:47] <fyngyrz> otherwise, youd have to do it on git hub
[23:54:05] <fyngyrz> still pretty easy, but if youre not comfortable, there you have it
[23:54:07] <Bytram> k
[23:55:00] <Bytram> please remind me again some other day; neighbor started laundry at 0500; /me is feeling ready for bed already, or at least a good solid nap.
[23:55:09] <fyngyrz> enjoy
[23:55:25] <Bytram> mare sieze!
[23:55:33] <fyngyrz> full plate here as well - lots of juggling today
[23:56:01] * Bytram scurries over to the janitor's closet and readies the extra wide push broom
[23:56:14] <Bytram> but seriously, best of luck to ya!!
