How did I get a Firefox add-on installed without knowing it.
01:43
<@celticminstrel>
Is this a Firefox security hole, or did I somehow do it without realizing.

12:51 * ToxicFrog has a wonderful terrible wonderful idea
12:53
<@Tamber>
Uhoh
12:54
<@froztbyte>
best kind of idea
12:54
<@froztbyte>
"hey guys, check this out!"
12:55
<@Tamber>
"Hold my beer and watch *this*..."
12:56
<@froztbyte>
yeah
12:57
<@froztbyte>
although I have a disturbingly good capacity for managing to do the same thing to software/systems, without even drinking
13:01
< JustBob>
Hey, one of y'all hold my beer; you guys gotta come watch this!
13:01
< JustBob>
I reckon there's 'nuff [blah] strapped t' it that it'll hit orbit!

"Dude, you strapped chickens to a cow." "THEY'RE EXPLOSIVE CHICKENS."
13:03
<@froztbyte>
hahaha
13:06
<&ToxicFrog>
Spellcast as a service.
13:18
< JustBob>
Which spellcast?
13:18
<@gnolam>
Spellmulticast.
13:24
< thalass>
spellcast the game? What kind of service?
13:34
<&ToxicFrog>
JustBob: spellcast the pen-and-paper game by Richard Bartle, ported to X11 by Andrew Plotkin and wx by I don't remember.
13:35
<&ToxicFrog>
thalass: web service. Spellcast in the browser. Asynchronous multiplayer.
13:40
< thalass>
Interesting.
13:44
< JustBob>
Ah, okay.
13:50
<&ToxicFrog>
JustBob: what other spellcasts are there?
13:51
<&ToxicFrog>
thalass: think Advance Wars By Web, except spellcast.
13:58
< JustBob>
TF - Given that I had no idea what spellcast you were talking about in the first place...

21:41 Turaiel [Brandon@Nightstar-949d7402.resnet.mtu.edu] has joined #code
21:43
< Turaiel>
I'm using ./czy < czy.c | ./dzy > out in my shell, but dzy isn't able to read the size of czy's output with fstat on stdin. Ideas?
21:45
< Turaiel>
I'm just getting a 0 for st_size in the struct
21:46
< Turaiel>
I should mention that this is C.
21:50
<&jerith>
Turaiel: stdin is a stream, not a file.
21:50
<&jerith>
You can't know how big it is until you've read the whole thing and counted the bytes.
21:50
<&jerith>
And there's no guarantee that it'll ever close over the lifetime of your program.
21:52
<&jerith>
And on that note, I need to go to bed and feel sorry for myself until I fall asleep and hope I'm less sick in the morning. :-/
21:53
< Turaiel>
That's unfortunate. It works just fine if I do ./czy < czy.c > out1 && ./dzy < out1 > out2
21:53
< Turaiel>
But for some reason passing it by | is different.
21:54
<&jerith>
Turaiel: Yes, because stdin is a stream, not a file.
21:54
<&jerith>
It is a different kind of thing that you just happen to access in a similar way.
21:55
<&jerith>
Applying fstat to a socket (and thus to a pipe) returns a zero'd buffer,
21:55
<&jerith>
except for the blocksize field, and a unique device and inode number.
21:55
<&jerith>
From the fstat man page on OSX.
21:55
< Turaiel>
So even though the < operator routes the file to stdin, it is not the same as regular stdin. Huh.
21:56
<&jerith>
No, stdin is always the same kind of thing.
21:56
< Turaiel>
That's strange, because we were told for the assignment to check stdin with stat to determine if it's the correct size, but then told to use the | operator for input.
21:58
<&jerith>
It doesn't turn into something else just because you're shoveling data into it from a file.
21:58
< Turaiel>
So why can I determine the size on stdin when I put a file into it, but not when I take the output directly from the other program?
21:58
<&jerith>
Oh, wait. I misread.
21:59
< Turaiel>
Grr. Must leave work now, I'll be back within 5 minutes.
21:59
<&jerith>
Okay, it look like stdin *is* a real file if you use "<"
21:59
<&jerith>
But you can't rely on that.
21:59 Turaiel is now known as Turaiel[Offline]
22:00
<&jerith>
Because the thing you're redirecting into it could be a named pipe or something.
22:00
<&jerith>
Anyway, really bedtime now.
