15:05 * gnolam sighs.
15:06
<@gnolam>
You draw up an information exchange format for worldwide use. Of course you then name all your fields in German. Makes sense.
15:08
<@macdjord>
gnolam: I mean, would you prefer if they named one field in German, the next French, some Italian, etc.?
15:19
< ErikMesoy>
macdjord: each field should be named in German, French, Spanish, English, Mandarin, Hindi, Arabic, and Russian.
15:20
<~Vornicus>
one letter each
15:55
< jessifae>
don't name anything, numbers only
16:17 Vornicus [Vorn@ServerAdministrator.Nightstar.Net] has quit [[NS] Quit: Leaving]
16:30
<@TheWatcher>
UUIDs for each field.

use Esperanto. make everyone unhappy.
17:59
<&McMartin>
Incorrect
18:00
<&McMartin>
That will make a small number of weird nerds *very* happy, and enrage everyone else
18:00
<&McMartin>
This is therefore the worst possible outcome
18:00
< Alek>
exactly.
18:09
< Emmy>
Hey, wat's wrong with making a small number of weird nerds happy?
18:09
< Emmy>
WE ARE a small number of weird nerds!
18:10
<&McMartin>
I have exactly enough self-awareness to know that if something makes *only* and *exactly* us happy, and pisses off literally everybody else, that it is a bad thing we should not be permitted to do.

< Emmy>
awwww. And here i thought i was among fellow megalomaniacs.
18:21
<&McMartin>
2022 has been a not-great year for valorization of megalomaniac nerds, alas
18:22
< Alek>
it's all Elon Musk's fault. :P
18:22
< Emmy>
Well, at least there was that year where staying at home all week was considered a good thing.
18:23
< Emmy>
that was pretty great
18:23
< Emmy>
Keep that south african nazi the fuck away from this discussion. >:/
18:24
<&McMartin>
I can think of at least three others, all of which are *also* not fit for polite company
18:24
<&McMartin>
But the *number of cases of* "not fit for polite company" is exactly why self-awareness is actually important.
18:25
< Emmy>
I would offer that i see no 'polite company' here, but maybe that is what you mean
18:27
<&McMartin>
I can't tell how much of this is a bit and how much is us speaking past one another, but I'm leaving it alone now.
18:33
< Emmy>
Well, i'm am IT guy, so pretty much all of it is bits.
18:33
< Emmy>
It kinda bytes, tho
18:45
< ErikMesoy>
Emmy: Have you ever heard the tale of the boy who cried wolf?

< Emmy>
yes, why?
20:24
< ErikMesoy>
Because that's you when you cry "nazi" about Elon Musk. Please stop.
20:55
<@Tamber>
yeah, he's not a nazi, he just pals around with 'em and repeats their memes and makes jokes about 14 & 88~
20:59
< ErikMesoy>
Tamber: Do you also think https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wildlife_of_Madagascar is written by nazi pals when it opens with "The composition of Madagascar's wildlife reflects the fact that the island has been isolated for about 88 million years." ?
20:59
<@Tamber>
No, of course not. It's all about context.
21:01
< ErikMesoy>
Context like how Elon was responding to an article on Madagascar's wildlife? https://twitter.com/Rainmaker1973/status/1596432773170053122 (scroll down to see /That Elon Tweet/ which a thousand people took *out* of context)
21:01
<@Tamber>
What an earth makes you think I'm talking about *that specific tweet*?
21:02
< ErikMesoy>
Because it's the one that got so many fucking headlines and reprints that I saw it in *Norwegian* newspapers.
21:03
< ErikMesoy>
In lieu of any other specifics from you, I think it's reasonable that the world-famous one is the one being talked about.
21:03
< ErikMesoy>
*reasonable to suppose
21:03
<&McMartin>
Can we not do this, or at least not do it *here*. This is what I *meant* about "not fit for polite society".
21:03
<@Tamber>
fair
21:03
< ErikMesoy>
OK.
21:57
< Emmy>
oooh, that's what you meant. nah, not what i meant.
