<Chalain> In other news, very shortly I am going to bind the CodeMonkeys to this channel. I'm planning to give jerith and vorn moderator access. Is there anybody else in here who should be on that list?
01:32 * ReivSLEP pokes at that. You mean the Nightstar Zoo forum, Chalain?
01:33 ReivSLEP is now known as Reiver

< Reiver>
Yes?
01:42
<@Chalcedon>
somewhat confused?
01:42
<@Chalcedon>
(to me)
01:44
< Reiver>
Oh. Yes.
01:45
< Reiver>
I'm pretty sure he's meaning having CodeMonkeys become sort of the official forum for #Code, or some such thing.
01:45
< Reiver>
Which would make #Code something of an official nightstar channel.
01:45
< Reiver>
Which would amuse me terribly.
01:46
< Reiver>
But I'd rather have my impression confirmed before I lept to conclusions, so.
01:47
<@Chalcedon>
ah.
01:48
<@Chalcedon>
thats an interesting fate for a channel originally invented on the fly.
01:48
< Reiver>
This is precisely why it would amuse me terribly. ;)
01:49
<@Chalcedon>
:)
01:49 * Reiver is quite happy for the idea. The channel just... grew. ;)
01:51
<@Chalcedon>
it did rather
01:51
<@Chalcedon>
it's now shrunk somewhat...
01:51
<@Chalcedon>
but I'm sure it will return
01:54 Reiver is now known as ReivClass
01:57
< ReivClass>
Nah, there's a tendancy to have people join and leave as the day goes by.
01:57
<@ToxicFrog>
ReivClass: there is, IIRC, an /existing/ code monkeys forum.
01:57
< ReivClass>
TF: On Nightstar, right?
01:57
<@ToxicFrog>
Yes.
01:57
<@ToxicFrog>
He intends to designate this its official channel counterpart.
01:59
< ReivClass>
Right!
02:00
< ReivClass>
So my above assumption of enofficialising this channel (Or at least offically associating it with Nightstar) was right.
02:00
< ReivClass>
'tis all good.
02:00
< ReivClass>
And we could probably make use of a forum for long bits of code anyway. :)
02:00
<@ToxicFrog>
Or a wiki. Although there are existing things like Pastebin for that.
02:00
<@ToxicFrog>
(or, for that matter, an svn repository)
02:01
< ReivClass>
I think some folks are hesitant about Pastebin's high profile / public nature, but.
02:02
< ReivClass>
Anyhoo, I'm late for class.
02:02
< ReivClass>
Bye!
02:02
<@ToxicFrog>
True. So, a Nightstar authenticated wiki or svn repo.
02:02
<@ToxicFrog>
Forums are for discussion, they make poor data storage systems.
02:02
<@ToxicFrog>
Have fun.
02:03 * ReivClass nods. The idea has merit...
02:03 * ReivClass will ponder this whilst at class!
02:03

I am using, uh, ENTREZ to search for genes.
03:49
< ReivLab>
I am fine at this.
03:50
< ReivLab>
What stumps me is "What is ENTREZ?"
03:50 * ReivLab has a concern "A bloody search engine, duh" might not be sufficient...
03:51
<@Chalcedon>
is google no help?
03:51
<@TheWatcher[zZzZ]>
Well, if so, "a federated search engine" or "cross-database search system" is closer.
03:51
< ReivLab>
Well, I'm /using/ it.
03:51
< ReivLab>
...Oooh. Excelent!
03:52
<@Chalcedon>
Entrez cross database search?
03:52
<@Chalcedon>
you found it or...?
03:52 * Chalcedon hunts out food
03:53 * ReivLab nicked TW's desciption.

I hope I didn't wake you up...?

04:01
<@TheWatcher[zZzZ]>
Not sure I'm afraid :/
04:02
<@TheWatcher[zZzZ]>
That one's a bit beyond my bioinformatics knowledge
04:03 * ReivLab was poking Chalcedon mainly. ;)
04:03
<@Chalcedon>
say what?
04:04
<@Chalcedon>
which end of what ReivLab
04:04
< ReivLab>
Er.
04:04 * Chalcedon is in work mode....
04:04
< ReivLab>
DNA/Protein sequences.
04:04
<@Chalcedon>
hmmm
04:05
<@Chalcedon>
I don't know, I'd need to look it up sorry.
04:05
<@Chalcedon>
I haven't done any DNA stuff since first year
04:05

sorry

this seems kinda pointless
04:06
<@ChalcyWork>
it's just going to ping out when I turn the alarm on
04:06 * Mahal hugs
04:06
< ReivLab>
"Alarm"?
04:07
<@ChalcyWork>
we have an alarm
04:07
<@ChalcyWork>
it makes lots of noise
04:07
< ReivLab>
...Oh, your security alarm interferes with the internets...
04:07
< ReivLab>
Right!
04:07
<@Mahal>
Tries to dial home, likely
04:07
<@ChalcyWork>
yes, it thinks its talking to someone
04:07
<@ChalcyWork>
but it's all alone...
04:07
< ReivLab>
That should be disable-able.
04:10
<@ChalcyWork>
yeah, but that would involve getting someone out here to fix it which is $$$$
04:11

but I late and so FLEE!!(tm)

Hey TF, how's that scite thingy you were working on coming?
18:14
<@ToxicFrog>
Very slowly and full of bubbling hatred.
18:15
<@Vornicus>
Aha.
18:16
<@ToxicFrog>
I am basically trying to do with regexec() and regcomp() and Scintilla's lexer API, what NEdit does with an incredibly convoluted custom regex engine inextricably woven into the heart of the editing engine.
18:17
<@ToxicFrog>
While having no prior experience with either.
18:17
<@ToxicFrog>
And while the server hosting the Scintilla documentation randomly goes up and down.
18:24
<@ToxicFrog>
This is why I've been doing digital circuit design homework and watching Mai-HiME for the past few days rather than working on it.
18:25
<@Vornicus>
eew
18:25
<@ToxicFrog>
At Scintille, Mai-HiME, or DCD?
18:25
<@Vornicus>
scintilla
18:26 * Vornicus likes DCD, and hasn't seen Mai-HiME.
18:26
<@ToxicFrog>
Seriously, this frustrates me so much, because it's such an awesome editor /apart/ from the incredibly braindead lexer interface.
18:28 EvilDarkLord is now known as EvilPirateLord
18:28
<@ToxicFrog>
I have actually toyed with the idea of removing the /other/ half of the lexer interface and replacing with the NEdit's, but, um. Have you read the NEdit source?
18:29
<@Vornicus>
No, but I imagine it is a chirping horror.
18:29
<@ToxicFrog>
Yeeeep.
18:30
<@ToxicFrog>
Especially the bits I want, where they wrote their own extended-extended regex compiler and VM.
18:34
<@ToxicFrog>
Mai-HiME, on the other hand, is v. tasty.

a singer.

oh

I forget if she's one of the ones who sounds like she smokes at least four or five packs a day.
