<@ToxicFrog>
Hmm.
20:20
<@ToxicFrog>
Answer to "can you stream music over ssh without installing a new service": yes, but it's ugly
20:20
<@ToxicFrog>
ssh orias find /usr/share/Media/Music -name '*.mp3' -exec cat '{}' '";"' | mplayer -cache 1024 -
20:21
<@McMartin>
Hm, you can't scp to -?
20:21
<@McMartin>
Or do you need the full power of find here?
20:30
<@ToxicFrog>
Nope, that's equivalent to copying N files and concatenating them, which scp doesn't do
20:43
<@AnnoDomini>
Can scp be set to overwrite only in certain situations, rather than by default?
21:04 * Alek coughs.
21:05
< Alek>
ok, I need to figure out some per-project prices for web-programming-at-home.
21:06
< Alek>
would $10+/page, going up as the page grows, $25+/(Flash or Javascript object), be good? or what?

<@ToxicFrog>
AnnoDomini: use rsync instead.
21:42
<@ToxicFrog>
(that is to say: no)
21:42
<@AnnoDomini>
That requires it being installed on the target system.
21:42
< Namegduf>
AnnoDomini: You can compile it in your damn home directory
21:43 * Namegduf has built rdiff-backup from source in a home directory for backup purposes before, including prerequisites like "Python"
21:43
<@AnnoDomini>
Or I can ask the admin to install it properly.
21:44
< Namegduf>
Or you could do that. In either case, it not being installed right now isn't a major barrier.
21:45
<@ToxicFrog>
Yeah.
21:45
<@ToxicFrog>
I mean, you could hack together something using ssh + find + stat + scp, but at that point you're spending more time implementing a crippled version of rsync than it would take to just install rsync.
21:51
<@AnnoDomini>
Okay, okay. I've gotten the thing installed, and everything seems to work now.
21:51
<@AnnoDomini>
Now my charsheet repository is easier to use than ever. :D
21:52
<@ToxicFrog>
Oh?
21:54
<@AnnoDomini>
I have a shell account that I use for a website and a charsheet repository. The charsheets are html files. I have local copies of them, which I edit with Kompozer, and now can upload via a single click plus a password.
21:55
<@ToxicFrog>
Set up public-key auth and you won't even need the password :P
22:01
<@AnnoDomini>
The very mention fills me with dread.
22:08
<@ToxicFrog>
No, it's easy

Just see what other web designers ask for.

22:20
<@ToxicFrog>
Wow.
22:20 * ToxicFrog removes an unneeded zipWithIndex and his runtime goes from 4.5s to 1.5s
22:28
< Alek>
yeah, what DO other web designers ask for? -_-
22:30
<@AnnoDomini>
Alek: No idea. Do some googling?
22:31
<@AnnoDomini>
Remember always that something is worth exactly as much as people will pay for it.
22:32
<@McMartin>
Well, unless they're total cheapskates~
22:33
< Namegduf>
It's worth exactly as much as people will pay and you will sell, the latter being significant.
22:35
<@AnnoDomini>
Yes. He is selling.
22:35 * Alek blinks.
22:35
<@AnnoDomini>
Or have I misunderstood your purpose here?
22:35
< Alek>
this guy prices a blog design at $1800. and he's lowballing.
22:35
< Alek>
ook.
22:36
< Namegduf>
1) Resell hosting as well as doing web design.
22:36
< Namegduf>
2) Don't have a clause for removing the web design from your service.
22:36
< Namegduf>
3) Slightly lower initial fees; higher running fees.
22:36
< Namegduf>
4) Profit.
22:37
< Alek>
yeah, I got a call from a "startup non-profit" that wants sites. only they haven't told me the design requirements. so I want to cover a range, while being cheap enough to seem a) affordable to a startup and b) not overpricing myself, as not fully trained yet.
22:37
< gnolam>
So... started reading "Clients From Hell" yet? :)
22:37
< Alek>
once in a while. more NAR and TSC, though, as well as BOR.
22:38
< Alek>
I probably should hit it regularly, though. >_>
22:38
<@AnnoDomini>
Don't sell yourself short. Ask as much as you would for a competent job.
22:39
< EvilDarkLord>
Alek: I know a guy who charges $100 an hour for website design, but he has a fair bit of expertise.
22:39
< Alek>
yeah, as a work-from-home thing, I think it'd be fairer to both of us to charge per project instead.
22:41
< EvilDarkLord>
Per project is just per hour times estimated hours. Make up a wage you're willing to work for, estimate hours, and tell them that as the median value.
22:41
< Alek>
mmh.
22:51 * Alek mans up, tells them $25/page, $50/object, etc.
22:52

22:52
< Alek>
good? bad? ugly?
22:53
< Alek>
comments please.
22:59
< EvilDarkLord>
Are they aware you're not a professional already?
23:02
< EvilDarkLord>
I'd delete the line about their best interest - let them make that decision.
23:04
<@ToxicFrog>
Ok, I really like the way Scala handles synchronized.
23:04
< celticminstrel>
Oh?
23:04
<@ToxicFrog>
Rather than being a keyword, it's a method on Any that takes a function
23:05
< celticminstrel>
Any = Object?
23:05
<@ToxicFrog>
The implementation presumably looks something like: def synchronized(f: () => Unit) = { this.monitor.lock(); f(); this.monitor.unlock(); }
23:05
<@ToxicFrog>
Yes.
23:06
<@ToxicFrog>
So, 'synchronized { ... }' works as in Java, and 'mutex.synchronized { ... }' is equivalent to 'synchronized(mutex) { ... }'
23:06
< celticminstrel>
Oh, so Scala has closures sort of like in Groovy.
23:06
< celticminstrel>
?

I've never used Groovy, but yes, it has closures
23:08
< celticminstrel>
I've never used it either, just looked at it.
23:10
<@jerith>
My toy language has closures.
23:11
< Namegduf>
My shopping list has closures.
23:11
< celticminstrel>
XD
23:11
< celticminstrel>
Toy language?
23:12
<@jerith>
I wrote one.
23:12
< celticminstrel>
Why call it a toy?
23:12
<@jerith>
It's tiny and not very powerful.
23:12
< celticminstrel>
Okay.
23:12
<@jerith>
I'd never use it in anger, but it's cool to play with.
23:13
<@jerith>
Sleep time.
23:13
< celticminstrel>

23:13
<@ToxicFrog>
'night
23:13
<@jerith>
Well, sleep time an hour and a half ago. But still.
23:13 * jerith waves, wanders off.
23:13
<@ToxicFrog>
celticminstrel: anyways, yes, {...} in Scala defines a closure, in general.

I'm not sure why this is tripping my red-flag sensor.
23:48
< Alek>
he's asking me to do a few programming tasks to check my skills.
23:48
< Alek>
before the project.
23:52
<@ToxicFrog>
It's tripping your red-flag sensor because that's generally handled by asking for examples of prior work rather than asking one to work for free.
