04:53 | <&Derakon> | My terrain generator has a problem. I know, I'll use regular expressions. Now my terrain generator has uncountably many problems. |
04:54 | <&Derakon> | Seriously though, I'm contemplating writing a terrain pattern matcher that searches a given region for specific terrain configurations and replaces them with other configurations. |
04:54 | <&Derakon> | Stuff like, "if there's a platform sticking straight horizontally out of a wall, soften the underside angle the platform makes with the wall by adding some additional wall tiles". |

09:41 | | * TheWatcher eyes work, where some people are distinctly discombobulated by the fact that we have several students with no surname |
09:41 | <@TheWatcher> | Aaah, names. |
09:43 | <@TheWatcher> | And nobody believed me when I told them that this is exactly why I have a single text field storing utf8 for 'name'. No surname, forename, whateverthefuckname stuff. But oooh, no, we need to be able to do surnames! |
10:02 | <@himi> | That sounds nice |
10:02 | <@himi> | My full name is "Simon Joseph John Fowler" |
10:02 | <@himi> | My degree has "Simon Joseph Fowler" on it |
10:03 | <@himi> | As does all my work paperwork and the like |
10:03 | <@himi> | The degree I can /almost/ forgive, since it was "back in the day", before computers had, like, megabytes of memory and stuff |
10:03 | <@himi> | But /now/? |

17:26 | <@Tamber> | TW: "Don't be silly, everyone has a surname!"? |
17:27 | <@Tamber> | Or "Don't be silly, everyone has a name made out of multiple parts that are easily separated by breaking at the spaces"~ |

17:57 | <@ErikMesoy> | I feel a meme image coming on. [dim brain] Everyone has a surname. [small brain] Everyone has a space-separable name. [normal brain] Everyone has a name that fits in ASCII. [glowing brain] Everyone has a name that fits in Unicode. [enlightened brain] Everyone has a name that can be rendered graphically. [scifi brain] Everyone has a name. |

21:07 | <@Alek> | sounds unlikely. probably a burnt-in pixel instead, permanently forced into the blue color and not the other 2, when powered. |
21:07 | <@Alek> | at least I've heard of that happening. |

22:52 | <@ErikMesoy> | "It of course does not, because anything someone tells you is their name is — by definition — an appropriate identifier for them." <-- BULLSHIT. |
22:53 | <@ErikMesoy> | You can /sort/ of patch this by inserting "in good faith" so that you don't get trolls telling you that their name is (breaks into ten-minute musical number). |
22:54 | <@ErikMesoy> | Which still leaves you with sufficiently advanced eccentricity being indistinguishable from trolling. |
22:56 | <@ErikMesoy> | Proposal for additional misconception to add to the list: "People's names are not elaborate works of troll-art." I'd see if the comments had posted this already, but the article refers to the comments while seemingly not having any comments. Site move? |
23:06 | <@Tamber> | probably on disqus or something, that's all javascript-y and from another domain |
23:06 | <&McMartin> | Yeah, I've seen that article before |
23:06 | <&McMartin> | The conclusion it accidentally reaches is "this is not a problem worth solving. You can set whatever restrictions you want because *somebody*'s going to be excluded anyway." |
23:09 | <@Alek> | pretty much |
23:10 | <@Alek> | Look at Spanish names. |
