08:48
<Peter`>
That's one I'd like to see too, MikeSmith :)
08:49
<Peter`>
context menus would actually be really useful for Web Inspector too
08:49
<MikeSmith>
yeah
08:49
<MikeSmith>
Peter`: your tweet about the details element reminded me that I've been meaning to open a bug for contextmenu
08:51
<Peter`>
Things are moving quickly
08:51
<MikeSmith>
yeah
08:51
<Peter`>
I might be able to get support for @hidden in WebKit today, using othermaciej's patch
08:51
<MikeSmith>
that'd certainly be cool
08:53
<MikeSmith>
Peter`: it passes the tests now?
08:54
<Peter`>
Yes, The style attribute at an editing test wasn't closed, causing "overflow: hidden" to be interpreted as two attributes, which screwed up the patch
08:55
<Peter`>
which was the regression that caused it to be rolled out
08:55
<MikeSmith>
ok
10:45
<annevk>
http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=10692 o_O
10:45
<annevk>
the inability to understand the issue runs deep it seems
13:12
<karlcow>
annevk: Manu closed it, it seems.
13:13
<annevk>
karlcow, yeah, I meant the comment with which he closed it
13:13
<karlcow>
ah ok :)
13:25
<MrWax>
concrete, which HTML5 apis are there? I am making a presentation about HTML5 and I think i practically listed them all, but to be sure, is there some clear overview of which we can distinct?
13:26
<annevk>
http://wiki.whatwg.org/wiki/HTML5_Presentations
13:40
<zcorpan>
i wonder how much time vlad alexander has spent bashing html5 and how it breaks xstandard instead of just implementing it in xstandard
13:55
<zcorpan>
http://www.w3.org/QA/2010/12/high_performance_web_socket_se.html wonder if he has the code in a public repo
15:02
<MrWax>
annevk: thanks, but they get into the language itself, the markup/tag/syntax renewals etc
15:02
<MrWax>
not about the JS APIS that come along with HTML5
15:06
<annevk>
not all of them do, and most of the interesting new APIs are no longer part of HTML5
15:09
<MrWax>
you mean like geolocation etc?
15:10
<jgraham>
geolocation was never really part of HTML5
15:10
<MrWax>
ok
15:10
<MrWax>
I'm just trying to find a list of APIs that can be considered belonging to HTML5 (now)
15:10
<annevk>
just go through the spec index
15:11
<annevk>
i.e. through http://whatwg.org/html
15:11
<jgraham>
If you want the loose definition of HTML5 look at http://whatwg.org/C
15:12
<MrWax>
ok thanks i will read it and use it
15:14
<zcorpan>
jgraham: that's the "loose" definition? hahahaha
15:16
<annevk>
if you have an implicit section and you use <article> next, is it nested in the implicit section?
15:16
<zcorpan>
no (iirc)
15:17
<annevk>
too bad
15:17
<zcorpan>
it becomes a subsection of the nearest explicit section
15:17
<jgraham>
Well no, if you want the "loose" definition, you should add in http://www.w3.org/Style/CSS/current-work.en.html http://www.w3.org/2008/webapps/wiki/PubStatus#API_Specifications http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-abarth-websocket-handshake-01 and probably the latest version of silverlight too ("it's not flash!")
15:19
<MrWax>
Will WebSQL as part of localstorage be def not implemented?
15:20
<jgraham>
Not by anyone who hasn't already implemented it
15:21
<jgraham>
For suitable definitions pf "def"
15:21
<MrWax>
i mean in the html5 standard
15:23
<jgraham>
Oh well, no, unless the previous "def" is less definite than it seems
15:23
<jgraham>
No point standardising something that won't be standard
15:36
<annevk>
zcorpan, so you would say that e.g. on http://annevankesteren.nl/2005/12/links I better start using <article>?
15:37
<annevk>
bloats markup a little :/
15:47
<zcorpan>
annevk: what's the question?
15:47
<annevk>
how I could improve the markup
15:51
<zcorpan>
annevk: yeah i guess you could throw in an <article> there (and one <article> per comment if you want to do what the spec suggests)
15:51
<zcorpan>
annevk: and always use pubdate=""
16:00
<zcorpan>
here's one for all the URL regexpers: valid: http://foo_bar.example.org/ invalid: http://foo_bar.org/
16:03
<annevk>
zcorpan, isn't _ always invalid technically?
16:04
<annevk>
zcorpan, also, that would require taking in account http://publicsuffix.org/ ...
16:04
<annevk>
zcorpan, at which point regexps will lose
16:04
annevk
still thinking about whether or not to use <article> and all
16:13
<zcorpan>
annevk: i end up getting confused when trying to find out whether _ is valid or not
16:13
<zcorpan>
annevk: the IRI RFC seems to allow it at least
16:15
<annevk>
you should look at the DNS RFC
16:15
<annevk>
http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1035
16:16
<annevk>
according to that RFC _ should not work
16:17
<annevk>
however, I remember reading somewhere that it can indeed be used if you violate the RFC as software generally does not care
16:19
<zcorpan>
that only seems to allow a-zA-Z0-9-
16:19
<annevk>
hmm, http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4343 claims octets within the labels can be anything in the 8bit range
16:19
<annevk>
that seems wrong
16:21
<annevk>
zcorpan, right, IDNs are converted to that format using Punycode
16:27
<zcorpan>
annevk: oh right
17:28
<karlcow>
I think in the past I had seen an article of someone testing Link: in HTTP headers across browsers for CSS
17:30
<karlcow>
hmm test page from Anne http://annevankesteren.nl/test/html-element/style-header.php
17:30

<Workshiva>
I have altered the spec. Pray I do not alter it further.
20:45
<zcorpan>
Workshiva: what spec?
20:51
<zcorpan>
the example document http://dev.w3.org/html5/html-xhtml-author-guide/html-xhtml-authoring-guide.html#example-document is not well-formed (nor valid as text/html)
20:54
<Ms2ger>
And doesn't have tbodies
20:55
<Ms2ger>
Also, links to w3schools
20:55
Ms2ger
reminds himself not to bother
20:56
<annevk>
http://trac.webkit.org/changeset/73139/trunk/WebCore/html/ColorInputType.cpp -- right, so all color names that are 7 characters long will still be incorrectly accepted?
20:56
<annevk>
e.g. fuchsia
20:56
<Peter->
No, the first character has to be #
20:56
<Peter->
(see line 45)
20:57
<annevk>
aah
20:57
<Peter->
#fuchsi would be possible
20:57
<annevk>
good point
20:57
<annevk>
that makes it a little trickier :)
20:57
<Peter->
but the Color constructor wouldn't be happy and wouldn't validate :)
21:00
<zcorpan>
""Polyglot Markup: HTML-Compatible XHTML Documents" is a normative specification" <http://www.w3.org/mid/E1PPi99-0005ql-I6⊙jwo>;
21:00
<AryehGregor>
But it will still allow #AAAAAA, although that's not valid for <input type=color>. Unless it correctly lowercases it for the submitted value.
21:16
<annevk>
Peter-, btw, form elements don't have a special constructor
21:16
<annevk>
Peter-, I think what is mentioned in that bug is not something exposed to the platform
21:16
<Dashiva>
zcorpan: No spec, I just felt like saying it
21:16
<annevk>
Peter-, but an implementation detail
21:17
<Dashiva>
It seems to be my "I have altered the X" day today
21:17
<Peter->
annevk, I'll take a look, thanks
21:17
<zcorpan>
Dashiva: bummer
21:18
<Dashiva>
It would be a good line for Hyatt to have used if he ever edited anything :)
21:19
<heycam>
interesting that loading an example with script in Hixie's Live DOM Viewer with Safari makes it say "Refused to execute a JavaScript script. Source code of script found within request."
21:20
<heycam>
s/interesting/annoying in this instance/
21:21
<Peter->
annevk, I've removed the sentence
21:21
<Philip`>
heycam: IE's XSS filter triggers the same problem
21:22
<heycam>
Philip`, seems like a good idea in general
21:22
<zcorpan>
breaking live dom viewer is not a good idea in general :)
21:23
Ms2ger
wishes the IE guys knew that
21:25
<Philip`>
Hixie could easily fix it by adding some header to disable IE's XSS filter, but I think he said he didn't want to
21:25
<annevk>
zcorpan, about 5 errors so far, mostly escaping errors
21:26
<annevk>
pretty bad
21:26
<annevk>
(re twitter)
21:28
<zcorpan>
annevk: how many of those do you count for escaping errors?
21:29
<annevk>
actually, are there other errors?
21:29
<zcorpan>
yes
21:29
<annevk>
there's a lot of stuff like & in links, literal &s, literal <p>, literal <p />
21:32
<annevk>
empty <p> element usage and various examples only make sense looking at the source code
21:32
<annevk>
what else is there?
21:32
<zcorpan>
no <tbody> in the second table
21:33
<annevk>
and the first does not use <colgroup>
21:33
<zcorpan>
a link pointing to w3schools
21:33
<annevk>
ooh, only required if there's a <col> element
21:34
<zcorpan>
the live page is different from the inline example (doesn't have the escaping problems and uses <code> elements)
21:36
<zcorpan>
claims identical trees (with the exception of the xmlns attribute on the root element) when processed as HTML and when processed as XML, but it doesn't have that (if we assume the escaping and tbody problems are fixed, whitespace still results in different trees)
21:37
<zcorpan>
an attribute value contains literal line breaks
21:41
<zcorpan>
i guess that's about it
21:41
<zcorpan>
also, i love 6.5.2 Elements that Cannot Contain Special Characters
21:41
<zcorpan>
apparently <plaintext> is OK in polyglot markup
21:42
<zcorpan>
(but only if it doesn't contain <>&)
21:43
<hober>
I like how if you view source on SamplePage.html it's quite different than the source listed at #example-document
21:44
<zcorpan>
yeah
21:45
<annevk>
comments on markup welcome: http://annevankesteren.nl/2010/11/fear
21:45
<annevk>
(chose that page because it is rather short)
21:46
<annevk>
(not entirely sure still on the rel=up business)
21:47
<zcorpan>
what changed?
21:48
<annevk>
since when?
21:48
<annevk>
:)
21:49
<zcorpan>
oh, i thought you just changed something on that page and wanted feedback
21:49
<hober>
no <nav>?
21:50
<annevk>
well, I did just add usage of rel=up and rel="up up" and such
21:50
<annevk>
overall I changed various small aspects over the past seven days ago
21:50
<zcorpan>
ok
21:50
<annevk>
I don't quite get the distinction between rel=index and rel=archives
21:51
<annevk>
hober, I was not quite sure how that would fit in
21:51
<zcorpan>
did you change to "Less than a week ago." recently?
21:52
<annevk>
yes, but that is frontpage only
21:52
<hober>
s/<ul id="nav">/<nav><ul>/
21:52
<annevk>
hober, so adding an element? hmm
21:52
<zcorpan>
(no pun intended if you changed it less than a week ago :P )
21:53
<annevk>
I have been thinking about putting that in the archived pages too, but I was not sure how exactly to fit it in nicely
21:53
<annevk>
also, so far it only gives non-meaningful phrases up to a little over a year
21:54
<annevk>
hober, I have been wondering about <nav> <a/> <a/> <a/> </nav> -- reducing the amount of elements
21:54
<jgraham>
http://books.google.com/googlebooks/error.html <-- the internet totally needs more twitter / moby dick crossover 404 pages
21:55
<zcorpan>
i think i like dates better, but maybe that's just me. not that i actually care...
21:55
<annevk>
yeah, I think I'll keep to dates on the archived pages
21:56
<zcorpan>
i meant on the front page
21:56
<annevk>
sure
21:58
<annevk>
Hixie, what is the difference between "index" and "archives" supposed to be?
22:01
<zcorpan>
annevk: afaict archives is an index of *documents*, while index is an index of sections of one big document that has been split to several pages
22:04
<annevk>
zcorpan, the examples and description of index in HTML5 do not support that
22:05
<zcorpan>
uh, you're right, i misread the description for index
22:06
<zcorpan>
i guess the thing distinguishing them is 'hierarchical structure', which is pretty subtle
22:07
<annevk>
so in my case it would be index then
22:08
<annevk>
it's pretty hierarchical
22:08
<zcorpan>
and index can be used together with up
22:08
<zcorpan>
maybe they should be merged into one keyword
22:09
<Hixie>
annevk: dunno, file a bug. i think we should nuke them all anyway.
22:09
<Hixie>
they're not useful in practice
22:09
<annevk>
Hixie, also, do you see a problem with <nav> <a/> <a/> <a/> </nav> ?
22:09
<annevk>
yeah, I added them for matjas and to test HTML5 out
22:10
<Hixie>
you mean a <nav> that just contains one paragraph? not especially.
22:10
<annevk>
yeah, my navigation is really simple...
22:10
<annevk>
might be nice to have an example to that effect in the spec as well -- guess that would be another bug
22:11
<matjas>
I remember Hixie confirmed that <nav><a>Foo</a> | <a>Bar</a></nav> was okay like a year ago
22:11
<Hixie>
sure
22:11
<annevk>
I don't want to use separators
22:11
<Hixie>
yeah seems fine to me
22:11
<Hixie>
so long as it works fine without css :-)
22:12
<annevk>
there will be a space
22:12
<annevk>
also, AT users don't really like funny characters inbetween it seems
22:12
<annevk>
s/it seems/I heard/
22:12
<zcorpan>
"so long as it works fine without css" - i think that's where it'll fall apart if we recommend it in the spec
22:12
<Hixie>
a11y users also find it annoying when links run into each other, from what i've heard (i.e. when two words next to each other are both links)
22:12
<Hixie>
but *shrug*
22:13
<annevk>
oh
22:14
<annevk>
yes
22:14
<annevk>
style sheet is going to be easier
22:14
<annevk>
o_O
22:22
<annevk>
fuck specifity
22:22
<annevk>
specificity even
22:24
<oojacoboo>
are there any plans to support variables and hierarchical ordering in stylesheets, like LESS CSS ?
22:24
<oojacoboo>
http://lesscss.org/
22:25
<oojacoboo>
when writing complex application UI's stylesheets in their current format become very difficult to manage
22:26
<oojacoboo>
you end up including multiple classes in your html element attributes as a stop-gap solution, but that's just extra markup and makes the html side harder to manage
22:26
<annevk>
you want www-style⊙wo
22:26
<oojacoboo>
as more applications make their way to the web, this is going to be an increasing issue
22:27
<oojacoboo>
annevk: ?
22:28
<oojacoboo>
is that a mail group?
22:28
<AryehGregor>
Yes.
22:28
<AryehGregor>
This has been suggested a bunch of times before.
22:28
<oojacoboo>
those still exist :/
22:28
<AryehGregor>
No progress has been made AFAICT, dunno why.
22:29
<AryehGregor>
Yep, and so do IRC chats. :)
22:29
<oojacoboo>
at least this is remotely instant... has purpose
22:29
<matjas>
Erm, I'm currently tethering my 5 kbps Edge connection from my phone to my laptop. I’ve been trying out every Geolocation demo I can think of, and they all seem to fail, in every browser. Does tethering throw off geolocation for some reason?
22:29
<AryehGregor>
So does e-mail . . .
22:30
<AryehGregor>
matjas, if your laptop doesn't have a GPS device in it, then geolocation might not work at all.
22:30
<AryehGregor>
I don't know if browsers use other location info sources in that case.
22:30
<oojacoboo>
AryehGregor: w/e, no way I want all that email coming in
22:30
<gsnedders>
AryehGregor: IP -> Geo lookup
22:31
<AryehGregor>
Then that might fail randomly, yeah.
22:31
<AryehGregor>
Dunno how cell phones get their IP addresses.
22:31
<annevk>
because I changed from #nav to nav CSS specificity is screwing me over
22:31
<matjas>
AryehGregor: I should clarify, my laptop does have a GPS device in it, and I've used Geolocation before (and tested these exact demos); they worked fine.
22:31
<zcorpan>
i don't think you need to subscribe to send email to www-style
22:31
<AryehGregor>
matjas, no idea then. What browser?
22:31
<annevk>
and fixing this sucks
22:32
<annevk>
guess I could :not(p) or some silly thing to hack around
22:32
<matjas>
AryehGregor: Well, I’ve tried every browser I have installed. Latest Chromium nightly, latest Chrome stable, latest Opera snapshot, latest Opera stable, latest Minefield nightly, latest Firefox stable… all failed
22:32
<annevk>
:any-link would be useful to have right now
22:32
<AryehGregor>
Interesting.
22:32
<AryehGregor>
What's your laptop's IP address?
22:33
<gsnedders>
Dunno what happens in the IPv6 case, FWIW
22:33
<matjas>
AryehGregor: You mean public IP right? 188.188.226.156
22:33
<matjas>
Does that help at all? :)
22:33
<AryehGregor>
Some random geolocation site I pulled off Google gives no location info for that IP address.
22:33
<AryehGregor>
Er, wait.
22:34
<AryehGregor>
Hmm.
22:34
<annevk>
hmm not fixed
22:34
<annevk>
fail
22:34
<AryehGregor>
So maybe it's not using the GPS device for some reason, maybe it's using your IP address.
22:34
<AryehGregor>
And it can't geolocate the cell phone IP address.
22:35
<matjas>
[23:39:53] <JKarsrud_> matjas: Fails when tethering here too
22:35
<AryehGregor>
I wouldn't be surprised if IP-based geolookup typically fails when tethering.
22:36
<AryehGregor>
You'd expect it would use GPS info if you have a GPS device in the laptop, though.
22:36
<matjas>
AryehGregor: Yeah exactly. Too much weirdness
22:36
<gsnedders>
AryehGregor: Depends on drivers, etc.
22:36
<gsnedders>
matjas: What OS?
22:36
<matjas>
gsnedders: OS X
22:36
<matjas>
JKarsrud_ (who verified the problem in #html5) has a MacBook running OS X as well
22:37
<matjas>
gsnedders: So this is an OS issue?
22:37
<jgraham>
101 signs that you spend too long thinking about standards #58: During a perfectly normal discussion about a phone implementing Near Field Communication, you keep wondering why people are talking about (Unicode) Normal Form C
22:37
<gsnedders>
matjas: No, but most OSes don't have any generic API to access GPS devices
22:38
<AryehGregor>
Oh, so looks like WebKit implemented marquee attributes after all.
22:38
<AryehGregor>
That answers that question.
22:39
<gsnedders>
matjas: So it's a matter of getting the geo data to the browser, which is ridiculously non-trivial
22:39
<matjas>
I don’t really get it… It works fine without tethering, why would it matter where the Internet connection is coming from?
22:39
<AryehGregor>
What's "most OSes" here?
22:40
<gsnedders>
AryehGregor: I can't remember
22:40
<AryehGregor>
matjas, because it's probably not using the GPS device at all. It's probably using your IP address.
22:40
<gsnedders>
Indeed.
22:40
<AryehGregor>
Which is different if you're tethering vs. using Wi-Fi.
22:40
<gsnedders>
There's a high probability that it's using IP lookup, or doing something like using the Google wifi database thing
22:40
jgraham
assumes there are environments in which geolocation actually works and that he has just never been in one
22:40
<matjas>
AryehGregor: Yeah, but why is it using the IP address lookup instead of the built-in GPS stuff when tethering is used?
22:40
<jgraham>
I guess a mobile phone with GPS
22:40
<AryehGregor>
matjas, it's probably using the IP address lookup in both cases.
22:40
<matjas>
It uses the GPS chip just fine when I'm not tethering
22:41
<gsnedders>
matjas: Are you sure it uses the GPS chip?
22:41
<AryehGregor>
How do you know it's not doing geolocation on the IP address?
22:41
<jgraham>
That seems like a testable hypothesis
22:41
<matjas>
My mistake. I’m not sure at all, I just assumed MacBooks would use the built-in GPS chip
22:41
<jgraham>
If you proxy your connection and the location changes
22:42
<matjas>
I’m 100% sure my model has a GPS-chip built-in
22:42
jgraham
would guess that just using the IP address is more likely
22:42
<jgraham>
Or maybe one of those wifi database things if you are on wifi
22:42
<matjas>
jgraham: Interesting. I will try that out as soon as I can get hold of a better connection.

matjas: The latest MacBook doesn't seem to according to Apple's site, and OS X has no location API, so there'd need to be explicit support in the browser for the GPS chip if it does exist.
22:43
<AryehGregor>
Or just use some geolocation app that reveals your location in real time, and look at the granularity.
22:43
<matjas>
gsnedders: I stand corrected. Thanks for the info!
22:43
<AryehGregor>
If it's going off IP address, it won't change as you walk around, as long as you're on the same network.
22:45
<jgraham>
The way I tell that I am getting an IP address based location is that it thinks I am in friggin' Stockholm
22:46
<annevk>
hober, now using <nav>
22:46
<annevk>
I think I am up to 3 elements HTML5 newly introduced now
22:47
<gsnedders>
jgraham: You're in Stockholm at home? The office is in Borås, IIRC.
22:47
<jgraham>
gsnedders: It thought that the office was in Stockholm too last time I tried
22:48
<jgraham>
Dunno why it changed
22:48
<Hixie>
any brits looking to be paid to give a talk on contemporary html progress?
22:48
jgraham
assumes "brits living in Sweden" don't really count :)
22:48
<gsnedders>
jgraham: When I last tried was the day we first got geolocation support :P
22:48
<Hixie>
jgraham: i already proposed you :-) (i pointed them to the wiki page)
22:49
<Hixie>
apparently swedes living in britain would be fine, but brits in sweden not so much
22:49
<jgraham>
Hixie: Oh. Heh :)
22:49
<gsnedders>
I agree with the statement up to the "to give a talk" part :)
22:49
<annevk>
Hixie, try brucel⊙oc
22:50
<Hixie>
he's in the uk?
22:50
<Hixie>
cool, didn't know
22:50
<gsnedders>
Yeah.
22:50
<annevk>
yeah
22:50
<jgraham>
Oh, that would have been a useful suggestion
22:50
<gsnedders>
I was going to suggest him, but annevk beat me
22:50
<jgraham>
Specifically he is in Birningham. But we haven't managed to disown it yet
22:50
<gsnedders>
Hixie: Any more detail about what sort of talk?
22:50
<Hixie>
um let's see
22:50
<jgraham>
*Birmingham
22:50
Hixie
looks at e-mail closer
22:51
<jgraham>
(note for the angry people reading this: I actually have nothing against Birmingham and probably wouldn't chose to let it drift off into the atlantic given the chance)
22:52
<Hixie>
"One of [some company's] large public sector clients has asked if we can deliver a presentation to their developers and architects, presenting the pros and cons of moving to HTML5 immediately"
22:52
<jgraham>
(I mean without it there would be no Black Sabbath and hence no heavy metal)
22:52
<Hixie>
well i've told the guy about brucel, if anyone else is interested let me know and i'll forward your details also
22:53
<jgraham>
(given which there wouldn't be constant metal gigs in Linkoping taking up all the avaliable concert venues)
22:53
<annevk>
whoa
22:53
<annevk>
bcc world news talks about HTML5
22:53
<gsnedders>
jgraham: Oh come on, there are almost none.
22:53
<jgraham>
(and so preventing me seeing any bands I actually like)
22:53
<jgraham>
(so yeah, fuck you Birmingham)
22:53
<annevk>
it is processor hungry
22:53
<annevk>
worse than a cookie monster
22:53
<annevk>
or something like that
22:53
<annevk>
and that was it, lol
22:54
<karlcow>
DOMContentLoaded is not defined in HTML5? (or am I missing something)
22:54
<karlcow>
http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/the-end.html#the-end
22:54
<jgraham>
gsnedders: Well yeah and even if there were it wouldn't make good people suddenly play here. But if there was no metal maybe good bands would have more fans in Scandinavia
22:54
<zcorpan>
"Queue a task to fire a simple event that bubbles named DOMContentLoaded at the Document."
22:55
<annevk>
karlcow, you don't need much to define an event
22:55
<karlcow>
hehe
22:55
<annevk>
karlcow, i.e. what HTML5 says there is sufficient
22:55
<gsnedders>
jgraham: Bleh, just think of all the good music there :)
22:55
<jgraham>
and stop doing "european tours" that consist of the UK, The Netherlands, France and Belgium
22:55
<jgraham>
I mean. Belgium
22:55
<annevk>
they have chocolate
22:55
<jgraham>
How awful is it to be below Belgium on the pecking order
22:55
<annevk>
and beer
22:56
<jgraham>
Belgian chocolate is not actually that nice
22:56
<annevk>
o_O
22:57
<jgraham>
Well there is probably some good stuff but all the great chocolate I find comes from France or Italy
22:57
<jgraham>
Possibly the belgians are just keeping it to themselves
22:57
<annevk>
that sounds really odd
22:59
<jgraham>
Not really. Valrhona: French. Amedei: Italian. Heaven in bar form.
22:59
<erlehmann>
can any one of you canvas experts explain to me why stroked shapes are always drawn a frame later than filled? http://daten.dieweltistgarnichtso.net/src/schwrkrft/test.html
22:59
<erlehmann>
(click on a particle in the main canvas and it gets hilighted in the secondary)
23:01
<jgraham>
Anyway the point is that The Decemberists are playing frickin' Belgium and ignoring Scandinavia entirely. Let alone anywhere I could actually get to on a weeknight
23:03
<jgraham>
And with that irrelevant rant, I will go to sleep
23:05
<annevk>
you could take some vacation ;)
23:05
<annevk>
but then you don't like the chocolate there and you don't drink beer... might be sad ;p
23:08
<erlehmann>
any one of the web cabal attending chaos communication congress at the end of the month?
23:09
<gsnedders>
jgraham: I didn't see any dates announced anywhere near here :(
23:09
<annevk>
erlehmann, that's in Germany right? which days?
23:10
<gsnedders>
Yeah, they're playing in London, nowhere else in the UK :(
23:10
<gsnedders>
Or, alternatively, I can't read.
23:10
<gsnedders>
They're playing in Glasgow in March. Win.
23:11
<gsnedders>
Meh, it's the weekend I have people trying to convince me to go LARPing…
23:11
<erlehmann>
annevk, every year from 27.12 to 30.12 — but all complete-event tickets are sold out, so (as i understood it) they'll only sell day passes at the counter.
23:12
<annevk>
probably not going to make it then
23:12
<annevk>
bit unfortunate timing for me if it is the same each year
23:13
<erlehmann>
ahaha, i was just "don't worry, i'll ask again next year", but then …
23:13
<annevk>
heh
23:13
<annevk>
could organize our own one day
23:14
<annevk>
put a banner on the spec and I'm sure the masses will come :)
23:14
<erlehmann>
our own congress with thousands of hackers? hehe
23:14
<annevk>
and then when everyone arrives we announce the secret program
23:15
<annevk>
writing testcases for three days straight
23:15
<erlehmann>
“Nooooo! HTML5 testcases is … PEOPLE!”
