09:31 | <@abudhabi> | Hmm. |
09:32 | <@abudhabi> | I'm trying to integrate the Tigra Calendar javascript thingy with a Stripes project. |
09:32 | <@abudhabi> | The script uses a stylesheet; so far, so good - I've just pasted the sheet into the sheet I use. |
09:33 | <@abudhabi> | It mostly worked. |
09:33 | <@abudhabi> | Except for the image files. |
09:33 | <@abudhabi> | The sheet has some items that refer to a relative URL for the background image. |
09:34 | <@TheWatcher> | as in background-image: url('../foo/bar.png'); |
09:34 | <@TheWatcher> | ? |
09:34 | <@abudhabi> | Without the ../ bit at the start, yes. |
09:35 | <@TheWatcher> | If so, note that relative urls like that are relative /to the .css file/, not the html that loads the css |
09:35 | <@abudhabi> | So if I have a structure like [web [css] [img]], then it would be '../img/lol.gif'? |
09:36 | <@TheWatcher> | Yep |
09:37 | <@abudhabi> | This... partly works. It doesn't load the icon for the default state, and improperly prints the clicked state. |
09:38 | <@TheWatcher> | padding: 0px 0px 3px 0px; |
09:38 | <@TheWatcher> | gah |

09:54 | <@Tarinaky> | abudhabi: I could do with some cliff notes on the major differences in traditions for Christmas in Poland vs here in the Anglophonic world. |
09:55 | <@Tarinaky> | I would quite like to surprise my partner with something pleasant. |
10:01 | <@abudhabi> | Major difference is that Christmas Eve is the central celebration day (evening), rather than Christmas itself. |
10:04 | <@abudhabi> | You eat a family supper, give presents, break wafers on Christmas Eve. On Christmas you eat a family breakfast, and go to church. |
10:07 | <@abudhabi> | The parish priest visits households shortly after Christmas, but it may take a while, depending on population. |
10:08 | <@abudhabi> | Tarinaky: How does Christmas look in the Anglophonic world? I don't quite know. |
10:18 | <@Tarinaky> | If you're relogious, people go to the Church Christmas Eve. |
10:19 | <@Tarinaky> | But society is pretty secular, so not a lot of folk bother. |
10:19 | <@Tarinaky> | Big meal just after lunch time on Christmas day. |
10:19 | <@Tarinaky> | And left-over turkey for the next 2 weeks. |
10:21 | <@abudhabi> | Never heard of anyone eating turkey. Here's some Polish recipes: http://www.pwaa.org/Polish_Christmas_Recipes.htm |
10:21 | <@Tarinaky> | Danke |
10:22 | <@abudhabi> | NP. |
10:30 | <&McMartin> | Ham is also traditional. |
10:30 | <&McMartin> | My family prefers beef roasts, though - Pork and sauerkraut is for New Year's. |
10:32 | <&McMartin> | (USA here - there was a massive immigration wave of German and Polish immigrants in the mid-19th century and it left occasional odd imprints.) |

17:41 | <@Tamber> | ...at least. |
17:42 | <&jeroud> | Well, that's the minimum and it's because TheWatcher is one of the few people whose estimates we trust around here. |
17:42 | <@Tamber> | :) |
17:42 | <&jeroud> | I use a safety factor of three, personally. |
17:43 | <&jeroud> | Five when I'm unfamiliar with the particular algorithms, but that gets expensive. |

20:21 | | * abudhabi tries to see what the scam is. |
20:21 | <@abudhabi> | Aaaah. They list it as the laptop, showing the picture of the laptop, but it's just a battery when you navigate to the store. |
20:24 | | * abudhabi buys a KVM too. |
20:24 | <@simon_> | KVMs are cool. |
20:26 | | * abudhabi ends up spending 82.42 USD. |
20:26 | <@abudhabi> | I hope all that is worth the money. |
20:28 | | * simon_ wants to buy a new workstation |
20:28 | <@simon_> | it's hardly justifiable, though, since I have one and I haven't even plugged it in. |
20:29 | <@abudhabi> | I bought a used Dell Precision 670, for like ~1500 NOK (I forget). |
20:29 | <@simon_> | abudhabi, exactly where are you from? |
20:29 | <@abudhabi> | I'm from Poland. I live in Norway. |
20:29 | <@simon_> | ah. :) |
20:30 | <@abudhabi> | I have recently landed a real job after three years of persistent searching, and next week I'm due my first paycheck. |
20:30 | <@simon_> | what's the job? |
20:30 | <@abudhabi> | Java developer. |
20:31 | <@simon_> | why'd you spend three years looking? (and what have you done that wasn't a real job?) |
20:31 | <@simon_> | I've mostly TA'ed in the last many years... on/off as a C# developer, few odd jobs. I wouldn't call any of that real, but it was all part-time while I was studying. |
20:32 | <@abudhabi> | Because I'm persistent and I think this is my chance at early retirement a decade down the road. |
20:32 | <@simon_> | okay. |
20:32 | <@abudhabi> | (I did construction work, translation, computer repair, house painting and paperwork assistance. Among other things.) |
20:33 | <@abudhabi> | Technically, I'm developing a web application, so I could be called a web developer. So it's time to: http://i.imgur.com/SHakG.jpg |
20:35 | <@io> | hahahahah |
20:35 | <@io> | hahahahahahahah |
20:35 | <@io> | webdev |
20:35 | <@io> | bahahahahahah |
20:35 | <@abudhabi> | I know the picture is funny, but I didn't expect such an exuberant reaction. |
20:36 | <@simon_> | somehow I never imagined web development *that* funny, either :) |
20:36 | <@io> | simon_: My parents tried for no end to get me to go into webdev |
20:36 | <@io> | so I sort of view it with a bit of hate ^^;; |
20:36 | <@simon_> | your parents? sounds futuresque! |
20:37 | <@io> | sounds like I got a job doing backend :P |
20:38 | <@abudhabi> | I *am* doing backend, part of the admin diagnostics. What I'm making isn't supposed to even be available from outside of the building. |
20:51 | < Lambo> | <gufi> while (safeThreadCount >= NumberOfThreadsAllowed) System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(500); <----------- What... The... Fuck... |
20:51 | | * Lambo stares at that |
20:52 | <&McMartin> | Java doesn't have an equivalent of a thread-based select or waitonmultipleobjects, does it. |
20:53 | <&McMartin> | I mean, the *intent* there is pretty clear - "sleep until the number of worker threads drops below this limit" |
20:53 | <&McMartin> | So they need an op that's "join on any N of these X (X>N) threads" |
20:53 | < Lambo> | that's C# |
20:54 | <&McMartin> | OK, I don't know how to do what I just said in C# but I'm sure there's a way |
20:55 | < Lambo> | McMartin, ThreadPools ;p |
20:55 | <&McMartin> | OK, that's one level up :D |
20:55 | < Lambo> | which is baked into the language lol |
20:55 | <&McMartin> | I stand by "MS wouldn't have designed C# without an equivalent of WaitForMultipleObjects" |
20:56 | < Lambo> | can also use Tasks in C# and abuse WaitAny() |
20:56 | <&McMartin> | WaitAny would what I was reaching vaguely for, yeah |
