[11:37:55] <TheMightyBuzzard> think ima fuck off and get some vidya in this morning. after a smoke.
[11:38:03] <boru> Lucky you.
[11:38:18] <boru> I haven't had a day off in nearly two months, now.
[11:39:02] <Bytram> boru: Oy! {{{ boru }}}
[11:39:55] <boru> EPARSE.
[11:39:57] <boru> Say what?
[11:40:23] <Bytram> "Oy!" -- expression of suprise, astonishment, amazement... followed by a hug
[11:40:32] <boru> No touching.
[11:40:47] <Bytram> k
[11:40:49] <boru> Is that an ICQ thing, or something?
[11:41:02] <boru> I don't think I've ever seen that before.
[11:41:15] <Bytram> I dunno... have used in e-mails w/ fmaily memebers for many years
[11:41:25] <Bytram> family members, even
[11:46:09] <TheMightyBuzzard> boru, perks of not being a wage slave. you set your own hours.
[11:46:38] <boru> Well, I do that, currently.
[11:46:40] <TheMightyBuzzard> down side of self employment is your boss tends to be a bigger slave driver than any wage slave's boss.
[11:46:46] <boru> It's self inflicted in this instance.
[11:47:02] <boru> One of the perks of this gig is unlimited time off.
[11:47:20] <boru> So, I'll probably just take a month or two off when things quiet down here, and go on hiatus.
[11:47:56] <TheMightyBuzzard> sounds like just the thing. i hear yall got some pretty good fishing on your island.
[11:48:23] <boru> If you're not fishing for salmon, then aye.
[11:48:58] <boru> The offshore netting is fecking up the salmon stocks. The Atlantic salmon will be extinct soon, if they don't do something, likely.
[11:49:02] <TheMightyBuzzard> are they as picky about when/how you fish for trout over there as they ared here?
[11:49:22] <boru> Plus cutting the nets of the fish farms to let the diseased fish out into the wild isn't helping.
[11:49:32] <boru> Trout's fine any time.
[11:49:58] <boru> Salmon is the only licenced fish, iirc.
[11:49:59] <TheMightyBuzzard> that actually is probably fine. diseases getting spread leads to a healthier population in the long run.
[11:50:10] <boru> Not with sea lice, alas.
[11:50:31] <TheMightyBuzzard> yeah, universally terminal diseases not so much.

[12:35:23] <boru> No history search in your shell?
[12:35:37] <cmn32480> dunno.. I close the shell accidentally
[12:36:02] <boru> With vi keybindings in ksh, for example, I can do `/badgers` to search for badgers in the shell history.
[12:36:05] <cmn32480> I also need to clean up the directory structure that he lives in..
[12:36:07] <boru> Should still be in your history file.
[12:36:12] <boru> What shell are you using?
[12:36:56] <cmn32480> honestly... NFI
[12:37:06] <boru> ctrl+r badgers (ctrl+r repeatedly to search next) or `history | grep badgers` etc.
[12:37:15] <boru> `echo $SHELL`
[12:37:26] <cmn32480> bash
[12:37:49] <boru> The later two ought to work then, assuming you haven't enabled vi keybindings.
[12:38:04] <cmn32480> highly unlikely that I'd have done that
[12:38:24] <cmn32480> ctrl+r works.

[19:32:45] <chromas> Does it have $submit yet? :)
[19:32:47] <fyngyrz> right now, it's in admin mode, so it's only available to me
[19:33:23] <fyngyrz> Pretty sure implementing submit is trivial. If I knew what needed to be done to do a submit
[19:33:56] <fyngyrz> does the submit thing access a soylent api?
[19:34:23] <chromas> It does
[19:34:30] <fyngyrz> ok... pointer?
[19:34:42] <fyngyrz> api doc, I mean
[19:34:45] <chromas> https://wiki.soylentnews.org
[19:34:47] <upstart> ^ 03ApiDocs - SoylentNews
[19:34:53] <fyngyrz> k, sec
[19:35:20] <chromas> Submitting is trivial; scraping pages is the hard part because there's no standards involved
[19:35:37] <fyngyrz> so submit doesn't do the scraping?
[19:35:37] <chromas> But if you had a tool like boilerpipe or the script firefox uses for its reader mode
[19:36:01] <fyngyrz> when I do a submit here, it gets some form of summary
[19:36:10] <chromas> arthur bot has a scraper or some sort. The other bots extract the summary meta tags from the html
[19:36:11] <fyngyrz> is that not in the API, but ahead of it?
[19:36:44] <chromas> Yeah. You can do whatever you want to get the article content, then use the api to do the submitting
[19:37:39] <fyngyrz> wow... and the API is a mess
[19:37:49] <fyngyrz> basically lego blocks
[19:38:30] <AndyTheAbsurd> well, if you want to rewrite rehash in Python, go ahead...
[19:38:35] <AndyTheAbsurd> :-P
[19:38:46] <chromas> That's just the way we like it around here. billy-madison-sloppy-joes.mp4
[19:39:46] <fyngyrz> it has nothing to do with python. It has to do with the api being fragmented
[19:40:25] <fyngyrz> well, doesn't matter. no need to reinvent the wheel; the scraping's already done somewhat
[19:40:41] <fyngyrz> that's not why I did this anywya
[19:42:07] <AndyTheAbsurd> well I'm assuming you don't want to fuck around with the Perl code that rehash runs on now
[19:42:12] <AndyTheAbsurd> I know I sure don't
[19:42:34] <fyngyrz> well, I may, but only to help with it, not to rewrite it
[19:42:48] <fyngyrz> in python, I mean
[19:43:09] <fyngyrz> I'm pretty good with perl. I just hate it, because it sucks
[19:43:24] <chromas> How about porting it to c#?
[19:43:30] <fyngyrz> and when it doesn't suck, it blows
[19:44:56] <fyngyrz> I have not looked into c#. I have written quite a bit of c and c++ though
[19:45:09] <fyngyrz> neither one is a great candidate for somehting like soylent
[19:45:15] <fyngyrz> imho
[19:45:34] <fyngyrz> Python definitely would be. BUt... as a rewrite? oy.
[19:45:50] <chromas> EF had a c♯ bot
[19:47:06] <fyngyrz> yeah, you could write a bot in anything. I just wanted to start with something in Python
[19:47:28] <fyngyrz> This one was very easy to get going and customize
[19:49:09] <chromas> I don't think we've had a java bot here yet
