[12:34:02] <TheMightyBuzzard> ~gday cmn32480
[12:34:04] * exec historically merges a speck of dangly bits with cmn32480
[12:34:06] <Bytram> if you look closely, you'll notice that exec no longer displays the day of week
[12:34:33] <AndyTheAbsurd> ~time EST
[12:34:35] <exec> Tuesday, 14 November 2017 @ 7:34 am ET - Eastern Time
[12:34:35] <Bytram> looks like google.au no longer provides punctuation around day abbreviations
[12:35:08] <Ingar> start.duckduckgo.com
[12:35:16] <cmn32480> I try not to look closely at much of anythign these
[12:35:21] <Bytram> whereas before, google.au would output "Mon." "Tue." etc., now it is just "Mon" "Tue" and so on
[12:35:27] <Ingar> (wop nvmd,thought this was a different chan)
[12:36:02] <Bytram> the problem lies on line 227 of the code in weather_lib:
[12:36:03] <Bytram> $fulldays=array("Sun."=>"Sunday","Mon."=>"Monday","Tue."=>"Tuesday","Wed."=>"Wednesday","Thu."=>"Thursday","Fri."=>"Friday","Sat."=>"Saturday");
[12:36:17] <Bytram> https://github.com
[12:36:18] <upstart> ^ 03exec-irc-bot/weather_lib.php at master · crutchy-/exec-irc-bot · GitHub
[12:37:14] <Bytram> so each time I ask for weather, I get 4 errors dumped to #debug, one for each of the days of the week.
[12:37:28] <Bytram> AND... we no longer see the day of the week displayed in the weather results.
[12:38:15] <cmn32480> so you are suggesting what, exactly?
[12:38:18] <AndyTheAbsurd> 4 errors? Shouldn't you get 7? Or is it because the weather API you're using provides 4 days of predictions?
[12:38:31] <Bytram> do you know how to code a substring function in PHP?
[12:38:44] <Bytram> the exec code only loops through 4 values
[12:38:46] * cmn32480 snorts his coffe out his nose
[12:39:05] * Bytram scrounges around for a mostly unused tissue and offfers it to cmn32480
[12:39:31] <Bytram> I think I'm suggesting two things.
[12:39:38] <AndyTheAbsurd> Bytram: ...it's in the PHP docs? http://php.net
[12:39:39] <upstart> ^ 03PHP: substr - Manual
[12:39:41] <exec> └─ 13PHP: substr - Manual
[12:40:13] <TheMightyBuzzard> cmn32480, just remove the periods after the short day names on line 227.
[12:40:15] <Bytram> (1) change line 223 to be: $fulldays=array("Sun"=>"Sunday","Mon"=>"Monday","Tue"=>"Tuesday","Wed"=>"Wednesday","Thu"=>"Thursday","Fri"=>"Friday","Sat"=>"Saturday");
[12:40:24] <Bytram> AND
[12:40:41] <Bytram> (2) on line 226, change: $day=$days[$i-1];
[12:41:04] <Bytram> to be: $day=substr($days[$i-1], 1, 3);
[12:41:23] <Bytram> IOW, take only the first 3 chars of the day name provided by google
[12:41:46] <Bytram> could prolly go for only 2 chars -- just update line 223 accordingly
[12:42:44] <Bytram> wooops!
[12:42:51] <AndyTheAbsurd> I'd actually change 223 to use the shortest unambiguous value. Su, M, Tu, W, Th, F, Sa. And then change line 226 to read only as many characters as are available. And case-insensitive, too, in case someone decides to return "SUN" instead of "Sun".
[12:42:51] <Bytram> to be: $day=substr($days[$i-1], 0, 3);
[12:43:50] <Bytram> but then you have to know what day it is to look it up in the array... use 2-chars, uniformly, but maybe lowercase everythjing, too.
[12:44:05] <Bytram> take a look at this for an example of the inpuit data: http://www.google.com.au
[12:44:05] <upstart> ^ 03weather Boston - Google Search
[12:44:08] <exec> └─ 13weather Boston - Google Search
[12:44:17] <Bytram> lol
[12:46:54] <Bytram> (1) change line 223 to be: $fulldays=array("SU"=>"Sunday","MO"=>"Monday","TU"=>"Tuesday","WE"=>"Wednesday","TH"=>"Thursday","FR"=>"Friday","SA"=>"Saturday"); AND (2) change line 226 to be: $day=substr(strtoupper($days[$i-1]), 0, 2)

[14:15:39] <boru> Whiskey usually comes out clear, anyway.
[14:15:56] <boru> Many whiskeys have dye added to them, to give them the characteristic colour.

[23:15:38] <Deucalion> TheMightyBuzzard, sounds good as long as the bills are getting paid
[23:16:11] <TheMightyBuzzard> well they ain't by my ass-sitting but i hate to quit being as i'm so good at it.
[23:16:57] <TheMightyBuzzard> nah, truth is the company's had me spinning my wheels for three weeks or better waiting on a decision.
[23:17:35] <Deucalion> I'd be a godamn Communist if reality and, you know... human nature, didn't keep spoiling the utopia - good on paper, not so good in practice.
[23:18:24] <Deucalion> Surely you negotiated contract such that if you are waiting on the customer you're billing hours....
[23:21:15] <TheMightyBuzzard> no contract. that comes after i have something to sell them. this one's a speculative job.
[23:22:18] <TheMightyBuzzard> may get burned but even if i do i got to play with some fun new kit.
[23:23:05] <Deucalion> How does that work? Work for nothing in the hope of securing a future deal?? (Sounds ripe for being rolled on if so). But I'm sure you know your market, far be it for me to teach egg sucking.
[23:24:54] <TheMightyBuzzard> create a product. they foot the bill for the hardware, i write the code. if they like it, then we write up a contract.
[23:25:58] <TheMightyBuzzard> if they don't, i give em the hardware back and eat the wasted coding time.
[23:27:17] <TheMightyBuzzard> not something i'd suggest as a standard business model but it's worth a little bit of wasted time occasionally.

[23:34:20] <TheMightyBuzzard> yar. i don't do proper gambling but nobody ever got anywhere worth being in life without taking some risks.
[23:35:16] <TheMightyBuzzard> and it's not like it's going to put me in the poor house. all i lose is time that i probably would have been fishing or playing vidya.
[23:38:04] <Deucalion> Gambling is a fools errand - unless exceptionally good at poker and invited to underground games.... AND you can get out clean with your cash bag having cleaned out. Scary territory. Not for me.
[23:39:10] <Sulla> So its totally okay to smoke pot in public but a fine if I smoke a cigar within 10ft of a building entrance?

[23:41:38] <Sulla> I had a feeling it would come to this. Glorious nicotine makes you literally hitler
[23:43:44] <TheMightyBuzzard> well poker's not really gambling. it's more strategy. i still don't do even that for stakes that don't jingle when shaken though.
[23:44:06] <Deucalion> I have no idea who Eugene is.... but yeh tobacco is the current popular nemesis du jour. Has been for years. Join me in my tirade against all Puritans!!!! No chance of success in the end, but we can at least drink and smoke smugly for the time being while we revel in their upturned noses half a mile away on spying a lit tobacco produvt.
[23:45:08] <Deucalion> My def of Puritan - someone somewhere may be enjoying themself..... can't have that, stop it now at all costs.
[23:45:29] <TheMightyBuzzard> Deucalion, i'm going to start carrying a can of smokeless around. anyone gets shitty despite my courtesy i'll put out my cigarette, put a dip between cheek and gum, and spit on their shirt.
[23:45:40] <Deucalion> LOL
[23:47:40] <Deucalion> I bought a mahoosive vape.... OK I put out the cig.... how's this ridiculous cloud of minty vape cloud suit? It's a losing battle but it's a matter of principle - don't fucking dictate what I can or cannot do to myself.... my fucking choice.
[23:49:09] <TheMightyBuzzard> well you're a brit. it's not like you can be impolite enough to just blow smoke in their face and say go fuck yourself.
[23:49:22] <TheMightyBuzzard> i think it's genetically impossible.
[23:50:59] <TheMightyBuzzard> could be worse though. you could be canadian. their flag really should have the words "sorry, eh" across the leaf.
