| 02:11 | <zewt> | ... what possible sense does prefixing calc() have |
| 02:11 | <zewt> | doesn't that make it impossible to use? heh |
| 02:12 | <zewt> | guess it just makes things ugly, as usual |
| 02:43 | <zewt> | https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/CSS/Using_CSS_flexible_boxes#Basic_flex_example somebody has a wildly mistaken understanding of "basic examples" |
| 03:24 | <kerozene> | why do browsers not cache js files as opcode? is parsing js just not that much overhead? |
| 09:03 | <happarappa> | What the WG? |
| 13:50 | <MikeSmith> | jgraham: Web mirror of the github html-testsuite repo is now at http://w3c-test.org/html-testsuite/ |
| 13:51 | <MikeSmith> | lacking any other brilliant ideas for how to automate the sync using hooks or whatever, I just have a cron job set up to pull into there every 10 minutes |
| 13:51 | <MikeSmith> | the submission branches are at http://w3c-test.org/html-testsuite/submission/ |
| 13:52 | <MikeSmith> | I do not have any cron jobs set up to sync those |
| 13:55 | <MikeSmith> | I need to talk to Robin first to see if we even need those there at all |
| 15:25 | <Velmont> | MikeSmith: Cool. -- The submissions mirror, how does that even work? Just checking out the changed files? |
| 15:25 | <Velmont> | The links there doesn't seem to go anywhere helpful though :-) Probably leftover something. |
| 15:34 | <MikeSmith> | Velmont: yeah that HTML page should just be removed from the submissions sources |
| 15:35 | <MikeSmith> | the submissions mirrors I just created with, e.g., "git checkout -b Mozilla origin/submission/Mozilla" |
| 15:57 | <Velmont> | MikeSmith: Hmm. So how is origin/submission/Mozilla? Is it not a branch off from the repo itself, but a root commit? |
| 15:58 | <zewt> | yeah i'm not reading the "allow..." thread any more, heh |
| 15:58 | <zewt> | seems like people are just stream-of-consciousnessing and not even reading replies |
| 15:59 | <Velmont> | Ah, no, they're full as expected, okay :-) |
| 16:04 | <MikeSmith> | Velmont: no clue. i didn't the original (remote) branches. Robin did. So you'd need to ask him. |
| 20:57 | <freedrull> | has anyone tried to make an mp3 encoder in js yet? :) |
| 21:01 | <zewt> | i sure hope not |
| 21:03 | <freedrull> | lol |
| 21:31 | <zewt> | somebody needs to tell whoever's editing mdn that his elementary schoolteacher lied to him, and it's perfectly okay to end a sentence with a preposition |
| 21:32 | <zewt> | painful to read text where people contort sentences endlessly because they were misled by a well-meaning but clueless teacher at some point in their past |
| 21:45 | <Philip`> | A preposition is never okay to end a sentence with! |
| 21:46 | <WeirdAl> | ooh, tis trouble you beg for... |
| 21:46 | <zewt> | The border-image-outset property describes, by which amount the border image area extends beyond the border box. |
| 21:46 | <zewt> | ^ : | |
| 21:47 | <gsnedders> | Why the comma!? |
| 21:47 | <gsnedders> | That just doesn't make sense at all with the comma there. |
| 21:47 | <zewt> | buh, no way to use css border-image with sprite sheets? |
| 21:47 | <Philip`> | "... describes the amount by which the ..." would probably be best there |
| 21:48 | <zewt> | wish there was a url() syntax that let you pick a rect |
| 21:48 | <zewt> | in general any time you find yourself saying "by which", back up and sanity check. heh |
| 21:52 | <zewt> | i guess image() is supposed to do that, but isn't implemented |
| 21:57 | <zewt> | or media-frags, which isn't either |
| 22:48 | <Hixie> | "It's fairly simple to implement so I added it to the spec" seems like a dangerously slippery slope... |
| 22:54 | <zewt> | making every link play fart sounds when clicked is fairly simple to implement |
| 22:58 | <Velmont> | Okay, so now I know that grammar myth about never ending sentences with prepositions. |
| 22:58 | <Velmont> | The stuff you learn in #whatwg :] |
| 22:59 | <zewt> | up with which i will not put and all that |
| 23:04 | <Hixie> | how can send() return less than the length that it was given, but with errno==0 |
| 23:04 | <Hixie> | that makes no sense |
| 23:14 | <smaug____> | mystery solved. Ms2ger has been seen |
