Hi, all
<elliottcable>
chiper ⑊ thinking about it, why?
<elliottcable>
micahjohnston?
<elliottcable>
Nuck ⑊ it happens in OS X.
<elliottcable>
Nuck ⑊ That's the entire point of CoreStorage, and what they sell to the public as “Fusion” drives.
<elliottcable>
Nuck ⑊ It does pre-emptive algorithmic caching of user-content, yes,
<elliottcable>
Nuck ⑊ But, far more importantly and usefully, it does *extremely* intelligent pre-emptive caching of *system* content.
<elliottcable>
Nuck ⑊ Re-phrased: OS X, or rather, Apple engineers, can't know too much about *your* data and code(machine code), so there can only be “fairly” simple (not really. but relatively so.) caching based on a simple ML approach to analyzing your access patterns;
<elliottcable>
Nuck ⑊ ... but they *can* know a hell of a lot about the OS's data and code, and can do a hell of a lot of powerful, intelligent swapping of OS data to and from the faster storage media (whether that's moving it up to an SSD-layer CoreStorage PV, or all the way up to one of the controlled disk's enslaved on-board cache, or even all the way into system RAM.)
<elliottcable>
um, lemme see if I still have a list of the relevant manpages; there's some really interesting reading in here
<elliottcable>
eh. got nothing, fuck.
<elliottcable>
nobody here. whatevs.

sighs
<elliottcable>
bbl food, I suppose.
<elliottcable>
micahjohnston ⑊ if you show up, I'm going to be diving into Paws-work within an hour or so, for the next 8 or so after that. #workday #whee
<chiper>
elliottcable: because I just happen to own taskbar.io
<chiper>
and have been looking for a project to build in node
<chiper>
I've already started a project foundation. I'm digging around in my files for the schema I created for taskian
<micahjohnston>
elliottcable: !
<elliottcable>
hiiii
<elliottcable>
chiper ⑊ I'm planning to make this very specifically GitHub-projects *only*.
<elliottcable>
and I'd also make it paid, because it doesn't sound fun or innovative to make, so it's a waste of my time otherwise.
<elliottcable>
taskman.github.io or something
<elliottcable>
payment model I was planning:
<chiper>
like, tied into github issues?
<elliottcable>
yep
<elliottcable>
up to five FOSS repositories for free;
<elliottcable>
payment for any private repos, or more than five repos of any type
<elliottcable>
repos where you don't create actual ToDos don't count against that
<chiper>
ah, yes, that would be useful. we've wanted something like that in the past
<elliottcable>
(i.e. using it as an overview of GitHub Issues' aggregated Task Lists *only*, is free)
<elliottcable>
They only count against your total if you start adding non-Issues tasks
<chiper>
for clients who could use access to issues, but we don't want accessing the repo
<elliottcable>
exactly.
<elliottcable>
This is intended to be tied into GitHub for access.
<elliottcable>
Anybody with access to the repo, can access the task list; anybody who can create issues, can create tasks;
<elliottcable>
and anybody anywhere *ever* can create tasks on public repos.
<elliottcable>
micahjohnston!
<elliottcable>
:)
<elliottcable>
PAWS ME BITCH
<elliottcable>
how's your schedule tonight? test tomorrow? I wanna coeeeedddddd.
<micahjohnston>
yeah test tomorrow
<micahjohnston>
perhaps a bit o paws
<micahjohnston>
I gotta learn these pieces for this music test
<micahjohnston>
like, they're like 20% of 30% of the whole class's grade
<elliottcable>
kk
<micahjohnston>
but I should still do what I can :p
<elliottcable>
nah, focus on school
<elliottcable>
Paws can wait, and I have other shit I can do without your help, easily
<elliottcable>
it's all code-copying drudgery
<elliottcable>
with a smattering of API design fun,
<elliottcable>
and terrible cross-browser debugging un-fun.
<micahjohnston>
ok cool
<micahjohnston>
i crossed a minor milestone today on the getting-over-ex front :p
<micahjohnston>
she made a joke and I said she was dumb, jokingly
<elliottcable>
oh?
<micahjohnston>
all my friends pile the joking hate on me
<micahjohnston>
including her
<micahjohnston>
just a joke but like
<micahjohnston>
so then she was like
<micahjohnston>
take it back
<micahjohnston>
also half jokingly but she takes things strangely seriously
<micahjohnston>
and I didn't and she got mad and left and I didn't give a shit
<micahjohnston>
lol
<purr>
lol
* elliottcable
laughs
<elliottcable>
excellent.
<elliottcable>
This girl doesn't sound like the highest quality of person.
<elliottcable>
Just sayin' that as somebody nosy who cares too much.
<micahjohnston>
:P
<micahjohnston>
idk she's definitely a hypocrite/double-standardy person
<micahjohnston>
self-admittedly sometimes but that doesn't make it better :p
<micahjohnston>
that's basically the approach she takes towards relationships too, like she is super jealous, yet does things that would make her very jealous and upset were they done to her
<micahjohnston>
anyway pawspawspaws
<elliottcable>
pawspaws?
<elliottcable>
well, okay. Do you have HTTP?
<micahjohnston>
ya

he died D:
sephr has quit [Quit: Leaving]
<micahjohnston>
sorry got distracted
<elliottcable>
is fine
<elliottcable>
trying to figure out how to implement a getter()
<chiper>
why are you wasting time on IE6? are you targeting china?
<chiper>
even IE7 is down to 0.5%
devyn_ has quit [Changing host]
devyn_ has joined #elliottcable
devyn_ is now known as devyn
<elliottcable>
Users will want it.
<elliottcable>
And the less popular the browser, the more likely a JS shim will continue to be necessary.
<chiper>
mmm, 23" Dell Ultrasharps are down to $200
<elliottcable>
hi.
<elliottcable>
Fuck.
<elliottcable>
god.
<elliottcable>
not only am I debugging annoying JavaScript.
<elliottcable>
not only am I debugging annoying JavaScript, on Windows.
<elliottcable>
not only am I debugging annoying JavaScript, on Windows, for IE6.
<elliottcable>
not only am I debugging annoying JavaScript, on Windows, for IE6, using ancient, unsupported “debugging” (and I use that term *very* loosely) tools from 2005.
<elliottcable>
not only am I debugging *SOMEBODY ELSE'S* annoying JavaScript, on Windows, for IE6, using ancient, unsupported “debugging" tools,
<elliottcable>
not only am I debugging *SOMEBODY ELSE'S* annoying JavaScript, on Windows, for IE6, using ancient, unsupported “debugging" tools, but *that somebody else*, is TJ Holowaychuk.
<elliottcable>
I'm currently, meta-figuratively, “literally in hell.”
<elliottcable>
oh, did I mention that the ancient debugger crashes approximately half of the time there's an error it should catch and debug?
<elliottcable>
which means I have to restart the VM to make it work again.
<elliottcable>
and that the VM takes approximately thirty seconds to gain a DHCP lease from my parent O.S. before it'll boot?
<elliottcable>
I hate EVERYTHING.
<elliottcable>
So fucking MUCH.
<elliottcable>
oh. on top of all of that: I have the beer-shits, and have to rush to the restroom every fifteen minutes.
<elliottcable>
divide that by the rate of debugger-VM-crashing, and I manage approximately ten debugger-cycles in between nasty, time-consuming diarrhea-shits.
<elliottcable>
Ain't life a peach?
<elliottcable>
I'm alert()-debugging.
<elliottcable>
In the real world. It's a thing I'm doing.
