"Could not open the editor: No editor descriptor for id org.eclipse.jdt.ui.CompilationUnitEditor"
12:21
<@jerith>
Yeah. Installing a Mercurial plugin can fuck up my editor.
12:21
<@jerith>
That's some quality software right there.

<@jerith>
So I upgraded Eclipse, which basically involves burning the old one and starting again from scratch.
13:04
<@jerith>
Why do people put up with this shit?
13:09
<@jerith>
Yay. Installing stuff (once I've figured out which magic words to click on) pops up a "do you really want to install unsigned plugins?" confirmation box behind the install window. After downloading everything, so it's in the middle of the whole process.

< gnolam>
... it's Eclipse.
15:47
< celticminstrel>
Hm?
15:48
<@jerith>
Eclipse gave me a sad.
15:49
<@jerith>
Several sads, actually.
15:50
< celticminstrel>
Aw.
15:53
<@jerith>
First, it's a pain to manage plugins.
15:54
<@jerith>
Second, installing a Mercurial plugin made it forget how to give me an editor window.
15:54
<@jerith>
Third, there's no easy way to upgrade it without blowing it away and starting from scratch with the new version.
15:55
< celticminstrel>
Really? Huh. I thought it had auto-update.
15:56
<@jerith>
Fourth (see also: First), there's no easy way to list the plugins that you had installed in the old version. Bonus points for excluding plugins that ship with the actual system.
15:56
<@jerith>
celticminstrel: It'll instal all the plugins, but 3.5->3.6 (for example) requires replacing the whole damned thing.
15:56
<@jerith>
Erm, s/instal/autoupdate/
15:57
<@jerith>
It *might* have a way to update the base system, but if it does it's even more well-hidden than the "show me the plugins I have installed" thing.
15:58
<@jerith>
So, three and a half hours later, I'm back at the point I was at before I started. Except I now have a system that isn't obviously broken.
15:59
<@jerith>
And I probably have a different set of plugins installed, because most of what I added to the new one was guesswork.
16:03
<@jerith>
*DON'T* give me a thing that looks like a text box unless you're going to let me edit it.
16:04
<@jerith>
*DON'T* tell me "this page contains invalid values" without telling me what they are.

<@TheWatcher>
Why Hamlet?
17:56
<@jerith>
16:12 < jerith> I was thinking about "cybirc", but that's apparently a pr0n site.
17:56
<@jerith>
16:12 < mithrandi> jerith: Hamlet
17:56
<@jerith>
16:12 < jerith> mithrandi: Why Hamlet?
17:56
<@jerith>
16:12 < mithrandi> jerith: absolutely no reason, it's the first random thing that popped into my head
17:57
<@TheWatcher>
Heh, fair enough :)
17:57
<@jerith>
Maybe I should add that to the FAQ.
18:05
< simon_>
did you find a java IRC library?
18:06
< simon_>
isn't there something like twisted/POE for java?
18:06
<@jerith>
I'm using IRClib provisionally. I still need to see if it's actually suitable or if I need to write one that fits Dalvik/Android better.

<@McMartin>
Oh. Oh. Suddenly much becomes clear.
23:06
< gnolam>
?
23:06
<@McMartin>
"jeroid" is jerith operating an Android device
23:06 * McMartin missed where that was actually explained.
23:07
<@AnnoDomini>
jeroid is like jerith, but not.
23:08
<@McMartin>
The Enrichment Center reminds you that Android Hell is a real place where you will be sent at the first sign of defiance
23:15 * McMartin also keeps seeing "Dalvik" in scrollback and reading it at "Dalek"

Oh hey, Fedora 13 came out when I wasn't paying attention
23:20
< gnolam>
Heh.

"The gdb debugger has been extended so that it can report detailed information on the internals of the Python 2 and Python 3 runtimes. Backtraces involving Python will now by default show mixed C and Python-level information on what such processes are doing, without requiring expertise in the use of gdb."
23:24
<@McMartin>
!
23:24
<@McMartin>
And Haskell can now do non-statically-linked libraries because F13 ships with libhaskell
23:24
<@McMartin>
sold~
23:26
<@McMartin>
TheWatcher: Surely a properly written service would get its text strings from some language file, right?
23:26
<@McMartin>
What's the iso 3-letter code for English (Dalek dialect variant)?
23:27
<@Vornicus>
There isn't one, it's four letters.
23:28
<@Vornicus>
...speaking of which, where can I find EXTERMINATE?
23:29

<@McMartin>
Or http://hkn.eecs.berkeley.edu/~mcmartin/if/games/bin/Exterminate.zblorb if you just want the datafile, but the prior link will let you play online
23:30 * Vornicus just wanted to check the existence of a verb. Which apparently it does not recognize!
23:30
<@Vornicus>
"PONTIFICATE"
23:31
<@McMartin>
