00:18 * ToxicFrog stabs Thunderbird a couple dozen times
00:18
< kwsn>
hehe

<@ToxicFrog>
Problem one: you can't turn on both threading and group by date.
00:22
<@ToxicFrog>
Problem two: group by date is completely useless even when it is turned on.

...the fuck is this
00:43
<@ToxicFrog>
There is a bug entry for "Thunderbird cannot update LDAP entries".
00:43
<@ToxicFrog>
It is listed as "NEW - unassigned".
00:43
<@ToxicFrog>
It was reported in 2001.
00:44
<@Tamber>
What, you expect them to actually fix things when there are new shinies to add?

I have so much hate for every mail client in existence right now

Even claws?~

Just do what everyone else does when it comes to things like that, or media players... write your own.
01:05
<@Tamber>
:p
01:06
<@McMartin>
ToxicFrog: You're expecting Thunderbird to work with a *gasp* Windows technology?
01:06
<@McMartin>
(Yes, I know, LDAP is theoretically an open standard, but)
01:07
<@McMartin>
(It's open the way Objective-C is a cross-platform programming language)
01:08
<@ToxicFrog>
McMartin: well, it can read LDAP servers - which are actually quite common in *nix environments as well these days - just fine.
01:08
<@ToxicFrog>
It just can't update them, so you end up having to use LDAP admin tools, or, you know, exporting Thunderbird's contacts and then importing them into one of the dozens of cross-platform LDAP editors that already exist which they could have reused code from.
01:08
<@McMartin>
Heh
01:09
<@ToxicFrog>
That said
01:09
<@ToxicFrog>
the bit that gets me isn't so much that this feature hasn't been implemented
01:09
<@ToxicFrog>
I mean, this is Thunderbird we're talking about
01:09
<@McMartin>
But that it's been unassigned for a decade?
01:09
<@ToxicFrog>
As the fact that the bug is a decade old and still listed sa NEW
01:09
<@ToxicFrog>
It has 120 comments.

Bugzilla doesn't do "acknowledged", does it.

23:02 * McMartin eyes his development directory
23:02
<@McMartin>
I... I don't think I remember writing a Pascal compiler for the 6502 in Python.
23:02
<@McMartin>
But here it is, at least enough to bootstrap some basic programs.
23:02
<@Tamber>
And this is why you should(n't?) code drunk.
23:04
< celmin|away>
Huh, interesting.
23:04
< celmin|away>
Pascal for 6502.
23:06

ISTR you talking about that some years ago.

ISTR?
23:07
<@ToxicFrog>
I Seem To Recall.
23:13
<@McMartin>
Yeah.
23:13
<@McMartin>
This is old.
23:15
<@McMartin>
In fact, I've got something like 14 copies of it floating around in different levels of development
23:15
<@McMartin>
And it appears I never did get a workable stack discipline.
23:24
<@McMartin>
Ha ha
23:24
<@McMartin>
And here's my dev diary where I'm investigating GM8.
23:25
<@McMartin>
"Day 2: Get distracted by poster hunting in Iji. Get distracted by Hero Core."
23:39
<@McMartin>
Ugh.
23:39
<@McMartin>
I always feel a little dirty when I start a new project and conclude the best language for it is C++.
23:39
<@McMartin>
But the best language for this is C++.
