Hixie
learns about setAttributeNodeNS
01:37
<Hixie>
wtf
03:06
<weinig>
Hixie: for real, even the DOM 3 spec doesn't seem to really understand what it is for
04:15
<Hixie>
41 tests so far
04:17
<MacDome>
sah
04:17
<MacDome>
sigh
04:17
<MacDome>
rather
04:17
<Hixie>
hm?
04:19
<MacDome>
Hixie: was just looking at our current failure status
04:19
<Hixie>
did it get worse?
04:19
<MacDome>
yeah, 87 instead of 88
04:19
<Hixie>
hehe
04:19
<MacDome>
Hixie: some of these are intentionally "broken" in Safari: http://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6179
04:19
<Hixie>
hmm, 59 tests still for me to write
04:22
<Hixie>
MacDome: i'm willing to take keywords out if you think some should be taken out
04:23
<Hixie>
MacDome: what do you suggest?
04:23
<MacDome>
Hixie: well, that bug links to various test cases which FF and WK prepared to test reserved words, and we tested against IE to match IE
04:23
<Hixie>
i removd the future reserved words
04:24
<MacDome>
I believe we match IE: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/attachment.cgi?id=206492&action=view
04:25
<MacDome>
interesting: http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/ECMAScript_DontEnum_attribute
04:29
<Hixie>
interesting indeed
04:36
<MacDome>
Hixie: did you find some list of what .constructor properties should be DontDelete or ReadOnly?
04:36
<MacDome>
they're all DontEnum
04:37
<Hixie>
i only tested Function's
04:37
<MacDome>
Hixie: I'll make a more comprehensive test and fix them all if I can find a list
04:40
MacDome
is confused by what (new Function).prototype would mean
04:40
<MacDome>
I guess that's the function prototype, which is differnet from the function constructor
04:41
<MacDome>
but is (new Function).prototype == Function.prototype? I would think not.
04:41
MacDome
always gets turned around by JS
04:43
<kig>
new Function().prototype, the prototype property of the newly-created function object (i.e. the prototype to be used when the function is used as a constructor)
04:43
<kig>
...i think
04:44
<Hixie>
(new Function).prototype is null, no?
04:44
<Hixie>
or am i thinking of (new function() { }).prototype
04:45
takkaria
chuckles
04:45
<kig>
it's an empty object
04:46
<kig>
(at least in firefox)
04:46
<kig>
new Function().__proto__ == Function.prototype => true, new Function().prototype == Function.prototype => false
04:47
<MacDome>
yeah
04:47
<MacDome>
Hixie: so you're grabbing at (function() {}).prototype
04:48
<MacDome>
ah
04:54
MacDome
doesn't know what (function() {}).prototype means
04:55
<Hixie>
i've no idea what specifically you are talking about, btw
04:58
<MacDome>
Hixie: I'm just tryign to relearn prototypes in JS for the 18th time. /me goes back to reading http://mckoss.com/jscript/object.htm
04:58
MacDome
gets confused by .constructor vs. .prototype vs. .__proto__
05:00
MacDome
thinks .__proto__ == .contructor.prototype
05:15
<Hixie>
__proto__ is [[Prototype]] in the spec
06:37
<Hixie>
46 done, 54 to go
07:37
<heycam>
Hixie, what spec is __proto__ in? i couldn't see it in ecma-262.
07:37
<heycam>
is it a JavaScript-specific thing?
07:37
<Hixie>
it's proprietary, yes
07:38
<heycam>
which spec?
07:42
heycam
returns to beer
07:55
<Hixie>
it's proprietary, as in, no spec
09:00
<hsivonen>
Philip`: Validator.nu is now non-XML-character-proof: http://validator.nu/?out=xhtml&doc=http%3A%2F%2Fgolem.ph.utexas.edu%2Finstiki%2Fsearch%3Fquery%3D%2500&showsource=yes
13:52
<Philip`>
hsivonen: Looks like that site is now non-XML-character-proof (at least to some extent) so it doesn't work as a demo any more :'-(
13:57
<Philip`>
hsivonen: By the way, when a page like http://golem.ph.utexas.edu/instiki/search?query=%00 returns XHTML in the error response, it would be very helpful if the validator could validate that XHTML (instead of simply complaining about the HTTP status)
13:59
<hsivonen>
Philip`: yeah, validating error pages is on the feature request list
15:16
<hsivonen>
what's the point of SVG Print?
15:21
<Philip`>
hsivonen: Replacing PostScript in printers? (That's just a totally uninformed guess based on the name)
15:29
<hsivonen>
Philip`: is there a good technical reason to seek to replace PostScript or PDF as the means of driving printers?
15:31
<hsivonen>
It seems to me that a RIP that eats PDF 1.4 is the peak of development as far as driving printers goes
15:34
<Philip`>
Looks like Canon is quite involved in editing SVG Print - is it something that's been driven by them, or do other companies care too?
15:47
<mpt>
So Adobe pushed SVG as an alternative to Flash/Flex, until they bought Macromedia
15:48
<mpt>
Now Canon is pushing SVG Print as an alternative to PDF?
15:50
<hsivonen>
and HP has been involved in XHTML-Print...
15:50
<mpt>
My irony meter is warbling
15:55
<hsivonen>
seeking to replace Flash makes sense because Flash is a single-vendor technology
15:55
<hsivonen>
seeking to replace PDF makes no sense
15:56
<hsivonen>
since PDF is a remarkably interoperably implemented multivendor technology in practice
15:56
<hsivonen>
even if the spec comes from a single vendor
16:07
<mpt>
So the next illogical step would be for Quark to jump on board
22:44
gsnedders
wonders why he has no email from whatwg@whatwg since the 20th
22:51
<Lachy__>
gsnedders, check that you're still subscribed and then check that there isn't some spam filter blocking it somewhere
22:52
<gsnedders>
broken gmail filters trying to apply non-existant labels, and archiving it.
22:52
<Lachy__>
ok
22:52
<gsnedders>
fix the filters and everything appears
23:24
<jgraham>
So... slightly further off topic than the keyboard discussion in public-html; does anyone have any good/bad experience with the in ear sound isolating styl earbud headphones
23:24
<jgraham>
?
23:25
<jgraham>
(add extra letters where required)
23:26
<anne-mac>
i bought a set and they didn't really stay in my ear so I gave them away...
23:26
<anne-mac>
(if you're referring the ones sold for the iPod among other things)
23:26
<jgraham>
do you remember which ones?
23:27
<jgraham>
(things like http://www.westone.com/content/215.html http://www.shure.com/PersonalAudio/Products/Earphones/ESeries/us_pa_E2c_content )
23:27
<anne-mac>
http://www.amazon.com/Apple-M9394G-B-iPod-Headphones/dp/B0001AP8CE
23:29
<anne-mac>
my experience was similar to this one: http://www.amazon.com/review/R12VD3WYE1JU5/ref=cm_cr_rdp_perm
23:29
<anne-mac>
although I did not bring them back
23:30
<takkaria>
jgraham: I have some shure e2cs
23:31
<jgraham>
Yeah, the general issue with these things seems to be finding ones that fit comfortably.
23:31
<takkaria>
they're pretty good
23:31
<takkaria>
they come with three different sizes of three different materials of earbud
23:31
<jgraham>
takkaria: Do they provide noticeable reduction in background noise?
23:32
<takkaria>
yup
23:32
jgraham
cares more about reducing background noise than about perfect audio quality
23:32
<takkaria>
they allow me to walk around town happily without my ipod ast full volume
23:32
<jgraham>
Excellent
23:33
<takkaria>
around the middle of Manchester, nothing less
23:33
<takkaria>
I know other people who've had good luck with the e2cs, no-one who's used the apple ones
23:34
jgraham
tries hard to avoid making some remark about the general danger of walking around manchester, let alone with one sense compromised
23:34
<inimino>
I tried some Ultimate Ears ones but they did not fit my ear canals
23:34
<jgraham>
My interest in the Westone ones stems from a site that said they were the most comfortable fit for most people
23:35
<takkaria>
nothing dangerous about walking round manchester
23:35
<takkaria>
cycling is a different matter, but I don't wear earphones for that. :)
23:35
<jgraham>
Unfortunately, they seem to be relatively hard to find in the UK
23:35
<jgraham>
takkaria: :)
23:38
<jgraham>
Thanks everyone :)
23:48
<takkaria>
np
23:59
<virtuelv>
jgraham: have you looked into the Shure headphones?
