| 02:54 | gsnedders | wonders where the j came from in olliej |
| 02:55 | <olliej> | gsnedders: hehe |
| 02:55 | <gsnedders> | olliej: Middle name? |
| 02:55 | <olliej> | gsnedders: yup |
| 02:55 | <olliej> | gsnedders: many years ago ollie wasn't available |
| 02:55 | <gsnedders> | olliej: Damnit! I wanted you to say no to that so I could guess maiden name! |
| 02:55 | <olliej> | gsnedders: and realistically it was either olliej or n|tr0 ;) |
| 02:57 | <gsnedders> | olliej: Well, I rule by having a far less common name. :P |
| 02:57 | <gsnedders> | And you fail by going offline. :P |
| 09:12 | <Philip`> | http://search.live.com/results.aspx?q=pdf - first search result is "a PDF Viewer for RISC OS", which doesn't sound terribly helpful - I guess I'll have to stick with Google for a while longer :-( |
| 09:45 | <gsnedders> | Oh, the tyranny! |
| 10:12 | hsivonen | wonders how Java AppEngine deal with threads and cross-thread static objects |
| 10:14 | <hsivonen> | "A Java application cannot create a new java.lang.ThreadGroup nor a new java.lang.Thread." |
| 10:14 | <hsivonen> | as expected... |
| 10:14 | <Philip`> | hsivonen: http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/java/runtime.html - "A Java application cannot create a new java.lang.ThreadGroup nor a new java.lang.Thread." |
| 10:14 | <Philip`> | Oops, too late |
| 10:17 | <hsivonen> | boohoo. they used JDK logging instead of a log4j mockup :-( |
| 10:17 | <hsivonen> | I don't see how static members work |
| 10:17 | <Philip`> | The Java WORA idea seems to be pretty much dead |
| 10:18 | <hsivonen> | what are the latest news on the projected death of Sun itself? |
| 10:19 | <hsivonen> | (IBM buying Sun, that is) |
| 10:19 | <Philip`> | I think that's expected in about 5 billion years |
| 10:19 | <hsivonen> | not $5 billion? |
| 10:20 | <Philip`> | (but I've watched Sunshine so I know it might happen within about 50 years unless some people successfully detonate a giant nuclear bomb inside the Sun) |
| 10:42 | <hsivonen> | if I ported v.nu to app engine, the quotas would prevent validating the html5 spec |
| 11:32 | <takkaria> | Philip`: that's the third result on google, too |
| 11:35 | <gsnedders> | takkaria: Challenge: what song did I have stuck in my head when I woke up this morning? |
| 11:37 | <takkaria> | It's A Sin by the Pet Shop Boys |
| 11:38 | gsnedders | is listening to Death Row by System Fault from Perfect Gentlemen EP |
| 11:38 | <gsnedders> | takkaria: ^^ |
| 11:38 | <takkaria> | oh, I'm sorry to hear that. :) |
| 11:39 | <gsnedders> | takkaria: Damned you linking to such things on Last.fm! |
| 11:39 | gsnedders | deletes four hundred words from his English dissertation |
| 11:41 | <gsnedders> | (It's still over 1100 words too long.) |
| 11:46 | <hsivonen> | https://build.mozilla.org/tryserver-builds/2009-04-10_10:28-hsivonen⊙if/ |
| 11:47 | <hsivonen> | the latest batch of html5 parsing tryserver build sucks less than html5 parsing builds ever! |
| 11:48 | <takkaria> | win |
| 11:51 | <hsivonen> | (they no longer seem to crash on cnn.com) |
| 19:48 | <hsivonen> | jwalden: fixed the typo in http://hsivonen.iki.fi/producing-xml/ thanks! |
| 22:17 | <Lachy> | Bonjour |
| 22:17 | Lachy | is in Paris |
| 22:24 | <jcranmer> | Comment ça va? |
| 22:26 | <Philip`> | Mon aéroglisseur est plein d'anguilles? |
| 22:30 | <Lachy> | Philip`, LOL :-D |
| 23:03 | <Philip`> | Wow, I think I woke my MBP out of sleep mode by sending a static shock through the metal shelf it's resting on |
| 23:03 | <takkaria> | hm, tasty |
