[08:26:21] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - You Can’t Build a Roland TR-808 Because You Don’t Have Faulty Transistors - http://sylnt.us - a-feature-is-something-that-is-broken-in-a-useful-way
[09:36:25] <Konomi> the language change affects nothing so who cares
[09:38:26] <boru> Quite right. Who cares, so why change it at all.
[09:38:38] <boru> The language as it is affects nothing.
[09:39:36] <Konomi> the change causes no negative affects I can see, if someone wanted to change it and went to the effort to do it no shits given
[09:39:56] <Konomi> it really is a small thing to get upset of
[09:40:04] <boru> Who's upset?
[09:40:45] <boru> The language as it exists is nothing to get upset about.
[09:41:24] <Konomi> people seem upset enough to mention it
[09:41:30] <boru> Might as well just start submitting patches which correct grammer in comments and that sort of thing.
[09:41:39] <boru> Grammar, even; the irony.
[09:42:35] <Konomi> stop, grammer time
[09:44:08] <boru> It's probably a good idea to submit patches which remove swear words, as well, while we're at it. Those open source developers have nothing better to do.
[09:44:31] <boru> More seriously, patches which remove code which mixes snake and camel case.
[09:44:35] <boru> That's very offensive.
[09:45:22] <boru> And then there's those redundant casts to `(void *)`.
[09:45:56] <Konomi> parent and helper seems fine anyway, master and slave reminds me of pata terms
[09:45:59] <chromas> I'm submitting patches to change all tabs and spaces in Python to elastic tabstops
[09:46:22] <chromas> parent and babby
[09:46:35] <boru> Parent and larvae.
[09:46:43] <AndyTheAbsurd> I really want someone to create a language (maybe call it "viper"?) that's just Python but with braces rather than indentation for flow control.
[09:46:45] <boru> Host and parasite? Seems fitting for python.
[09:47:38] <Konomi> server and client would be good but I think server doesn't fit the terminology
[09:47:47] <boru> I think viper should use ascii character 255, the non-printable character, as a delimiter.
[09:47:58] <boru> And space is a valid character for an identifer.
[09:48:01] <Konomi> parent and child would've certainly been fine since we use that for processes anyway
[09:48:50] <AndyTheAbsurd> boru: No, that's my OTHER new language - Ball Python.
[09:49:07] <Konomi> my language is better than your language
[09:49:32] <boru> The word 'ball' is offensive. Better get started on those patches!
[09:49:53] <AndyTheAbsurd> LOL
[09:50:08] <AndyTheAbsurd> guess we're gonna have to call it Gonad Python
[09:50:19] <Konomi> sphere python
[09:50:46] <Konomi> I was surprised when I found out they were really refering to monty python and not the animal
[09:50:56] <Konomi> I always presumed it was the animal
[09:51:00] <boru> No, that lore has been patched out of the language.
[09:51:08] <boru> Some people find Monty Python offensive.
[09:51:11] <Konomi> but apparently a lot of the example code is full of monthy python sillyness for examples
[09:51:26] <Konomi> eh I always found monty python to be boring myself
[09:51:43] <chromas> also tools like idle
[09:51:52] <Konomi> though with the exception of the holy grail which was half decent
[09:51:59] <Konomi> the other ones are a snore fest for me
[09:52:32] <Konomi> who doesn't love bunnies who can behead someone
[09:58:05] <Konomi> I do like that python2 -> 3 didn't really hack the hell out of the language

[10:51:27] <Konomi> it's like a soapy but for programmers , such great drama
[10:53:42] <TheMightyBuzzard> wise choice. it makes me want to publish a python module though.
[10:54:31] <TheMightyBuzzard> troll my ass off with naming on a useful, well written new module then sit back and laugh
[11:12:51] <TheMightyBuzzard> okay, ndb stuffs bounced on neon and appear to be behaving better. site should be significantly snappier than it has been lately.

[13:21:18] <TheMightyBuzzard> FatPhil, that sort of goes without saying

[13:25:07] <TheMightyBuzzard> had to be done though. they'd almost run out of allocated memory, which i'm pretty sure is why we've been having issues lately.
