[01:40:36] <TheMightyBuzzard> ya know, every year i forget over the winter how bad sitting in a boat on a windy day will wear your ass smooth out
[01:42:09] <Sulla> Wow such work
[01:42:26] <Sulla> Glad all I had to do today was deal with twin three year olds and a three week old
[01:42:56] <chromas> They break their own wind
[01:46:52] <Bytram> don't worry... it will 'pass'
[01:47:21] <chromas> Yep. No need to flatulate yourself
[01:50:39] <Bytram> would that be... inflatuation?

[02:39:02] <TheMightyBuzzard> you spend too much time on the math in 2e.
[02:39:29] <TheMightyBuzzard> hahahaha! just looked up the numbers and the deadpool movie beat every single x-men movie both in box office gross (by over a hundred million) and in opening weekend gross.

[20:43:35] <fyngyrz> on a bender, too
[20:46:42] <Deucalion> Ask your experienced DBA how much they like people hitting the DB with SQL LIKE or CONTAINS queries.... :D The bastards won't stop doing it until the craptastic reports they "must" run against the live production DB bring the call centre and all related activity to a halt costing many thousands and then the inquisition begins......
[20:48:18] <chromas> You know what's even better than LIKE and CONTAINS? ~
[20:48:42] <chromas> Hm, just putting the tilde there doesn't seem like the 'answer'. Anyhow, it's regex!
[20:51:03] <fyngyrz> sqlite doesn't have a sane implementation of LIKE anyway
[20:52:00] <chromas> like should use * instead of %
[20:52:24] <fyngyrz> it's worse than tht... the case sensitivity is broken
[20:52:32] <fyngyrz> but that, too
[20:52:59] <chromas> It doesn't have LIKE and ILIKE?
[20:54:47] <fyngyrz> It has LIKE< but, LIKE is case-insensitive, which is backwards, and it doesn't have ILIKE a all.
[20:56:13] <chromas> Looks like ILIKE is considered nonstandard anyway
[20:56:23] <fyngyrz> You can shovel a pragma in there that makes LIKE case-sensitive, and then throw in a couple of UPPER() statements if you need insensitive, but... it's hackbaggery
[20:56:46] <fyngyrz> as far as I'm concerned, if it's in PostgreSQL, it's standard
[20:56:53] <fyngyrz> everything else is just noise. :)
[20:57:16] <chromas> I was just reading that sqlite doesn't fully support unicode and so it could cause issues https://techblog.dorogin.com
[20:57:18] <upstart> ^ 03Case-insensitive LIKE in SQLite – Sergei Dorogin’s technical blog ( https://techblog.dorogin.com )
[20:57:21] * chromas doesn't know if it's up to date
[20:57:25] <chromas> Time for sqlite4 then
[20:58:02] <fyngyrz> yeah, I bugger around that with conversion to a hex encoding, then back. That's also a rightous way to keep hackery out of INSERT and UPDATE and so forth
[20:58:09] * Deucalion is years out of date but.... the answer to my problem at the time was implement Netezza... zippity zip here is your dumb report... that was a PHB reporting overload thing though....
[20:58:10] <chromas> I've been using postgres for everything because it's already here Standards schmandards
[20:58:23] <fyngyrz> it's also really quite a nice, scalable db
[20:59:19] <fyngyrz> I either use sqlite for small stuff, or PostgreSQL for heavy work. I have simplification wrappers for both, and I'm not afraid to use them. :)
[20:59:38] <mechanicjay> We use Postgres everywhere possible, mariadb where postgres won't work. Wish I could eradicate all the sqlite around, but they're hidden around all over the place like traps.
[21:00:05] <fyngyrz> and inasmuch as I've been the boss for several decades now, That's. How. Shit. Works. Around. Here.
[21:00:18] <pinchy> omg a sqlite hater
[21:00:29] <chromas> Would you like to port sn over to postgres? :D :D
[21:00:30] <fyngyrz> lol... sqlite is fine for some cases.
[21:01:10] <fyngyrz> who, me? Soylent is written in perl. So, no.
[21:01:54] <fyngyrz> I'd like to port soylent over to Python, and in the process wrap the DB functions so that they can be swapped if need be.
[21:02:34] <fyngyrz> curious: where might PostgreSQL "not work"?
[21:02:51] <chromas> But when you look into the rehash code, Tubular Bells begins to play
[21:03:12] <fyngyrz> theme from the exorcist
[21:03:17] <fyngyrz> hmm. Need notes.
[21:03:38] <chromas> Not sure, but I think they had to do some stuff to move it over to mysql-cluster or something, for clustering
[21:04:04] * chromas is very specific
[21:05:20] <chromas> oh sweet pale moon supports the <details> tag now
[21:05:35] * chromas congratulates it on catching up
[21:07:15] <fungus> fyngyrz-> Theme from the Exorcist: 00,0🎶
[21:07:19] <fyngyrz> better. :)
[21:07:44] <chromas> It's white-on-white for me
[21:08:10] * chromas takes notes
[21:08:20] <fyngyrz> oh?
[21:08:22] <fyngyrz> mmm
[21:08:38] <fyngyrz> {notes}
[21:08:38] <fungus> 01,0🎶
[21:08:41] <fyngyrz> better?
[21:09:44] <mechanicjay> fyngyrz: Wordpress and Mediawiki don't play well with psql.
[21:09:51] <chromas> Y'know, MrPlow's weather could use some unicode weather glyphs, 🌡🌣🌤🌥🌦🌧🌨🌩🌪🌫🌭
[21:10:48] <fyngyrz> interesting
[21:11:28] <fyngyrz> Of course, they're both PHP projects, so I'd pretty much expect them to be broken
[21:17:47] <mechanicjay> less broken than a lot of the perl shit I inherited.
[21:18:03] <fyngyrz> my condolences then
