<devyn>
says the person who just bought japanese knives
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
no, japanese *things* are great. You know, real stuff, with history ≥200 years back.
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
it's only everything from the last couple centuries that is a bag of annoying crap.
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
it's their super-culture I disdain, not their sub-culture.
<whitequark>
super-culture ?
<devyn>
and you have no idea what kind of stuff I actually like
<devyn>
seriously
<whitequark>
ec just has a knee-jerk reaction for japan
<devyn>
pretty much
<devyn>
he doesn't like anything to do with anime/kawaii/moe culture
<devyn>
guess what? neither do I
<whitequark>
so-called anime culture is pointless navel-gazing, mostly
* whitequark
shrugs
<purr>
¯\(º_o)/¯
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
you still watch anime. it's all terrible.
* ELLIOTTCABLE
:P
<whitequark>
ELLIOTTCABLE: um, I don't think you understand what I mean
<devyn>
the last time I watched anime was this summer, and it was a very, very mainstream series
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
realistically, though:
<whitequark>
anime is fine. it's an artistic tool. anime culture, however--a culture built around a mere tool--is pointless.
<devyn>
it's just a style of cartoon. plenty don't even encourage the stupid culture
<whitequark>
it's like a person saying he's a "C# programmer", to make a more tech-inclined analogy
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
of course there's exceptions to every rule. Sure, 99.99999% of people whom I've ever seen speak psuedo-japanese (what do you even *call* it when you type sounds from another language, in a latin character-set, when the language isn't even in that set!?) are fucking terrible people. Nonetheless I *understand* that there may exist people who spend the time to
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
learn the Japanese language, and learn about modern Japanese culture, without actually being horrible wastes of space.
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
theoretically, of course, you could be one of them.
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
I'm not *that* dense. (Just close.)
<devyn>
I am one of them. it's just more convenient to write things in romaji with people who can't read Japanese
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
but forgive me if it's very difficult to divorce you, and your possible single-exception-ever-ness, from the *idiocy* I see surrounding anybody else typing Noshu Feeka Bonku-dai shit on the Internet.
<whitequark>
... I've completely lost you, ec
<whitequark>
why does romaji even such a big deal for you?
<whitequark>
*is
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
oh, it's not, I just didn't know what to call it.
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
now I do. *shrug*.
<purr>
¯\(º_o)/¯
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
it's … almost identical to, say, the aura around MLP.
<devyn>
it's standardized, by the Japanese government
<whitequark>
I could write, right now, in kana and kanji
<whitequark>
because there's an input method which automatically converts between former and later
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
theoretically, sure, there's somebody somewhere who studies the show academically, and *isn't* a complete fucktard.
<whitequark>
and I know about zero japanese
<whitequark>
but what's the point?
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
but that doesn't mean I'm not going to *react* as if a person is a fucktard, when they start talking about Ponyland, or whatever it's called, in my presence.
<devyn>
well, not that automatically, heh
<whitequark>
devyn: well sure, you need to disambiguate
<whitequark>
it requires about this: . much of graphical memory
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
anyway, the fact that I'm an unenlightened jackass isn't news. On to more important things.
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
Anybody seen the Goldee device? I'm so fuckin' excited.
<devyn>
ELLIOTTCABLE: look, honestly, I'm about as annoyed by that sort of thing as you are, and I totally get it
<whitequark>
oh god yet another fucking wifi lightbulb
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
er, no
<devyn>
lol
<purr>
lol
<whitequark>
ok, lightbulb controller.
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
it's “finally something to *make those yet-another-fucking-wifi-lightbulbs* **useful**”
* ELLIOTTCABLE
grins
<whitequark>
lightbulb thing.
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
yeah, I've got the lightbulbs, they're silly and difficult to use IRL. But this takes all of that infrastructure that's building up around lighting, and suddenly makes it applicable to the real world.
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
well, the rich-real-world. damned things are filthy expensive. don't know how they expect to make a viable business out of that.
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
Hue's other accent lights, light-strips, and shit only do colours
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
I love that XKCD. :D
<whitequark>
ELLIOTTCABLE: I would guess Hue has blue/UV LEDs and phosphor coating
<whitequark>
kinda like the usual gas discharge lamps, except the whole gas discharge thing
<devyn>
haha "human subcultures are nested fractally. there's no bottom."
<devyn>
musical genres come to mind
<devyn>
"postmodern ultra-funk triphop glitch"
<devyn>
I'm sure it's been used
<whitequark>
talking about art, there's a russian joke
<whitequark>
do you know the difference between a performance and an installation? performance: you ring the doorbell, take a shit, and run away. installation: you take a shit, ring the doorbell, and run away.
<whitequark>
summarizing way more modern art than it should, in three sentences.
<devyn>
an installation? think that might be a mistranslation. but haha
<whitequark>
hmmm
<whitequark>
I thought it was a borrowed word from english
<whitequark>
ok, no idea how to translate it, then
<joelteon>
what's the russian word?
<devyn>
whitequark: oh, a prank?
<devyn>
шалость?
<whitequark>
devyn: no
<whitequark>
it's инсталляция in russian
<devyn>
huh, that is installation
<whitequark>
(transliterated, basically)
<devyn>
weird
<whitequark>
well
<devyn>
well basically
<devyn>
installashia
<devyn>
kinda
<devyn>
lol
<joelteon>
huh
<whitequark>
what it means is: you go on an exhibit, and there's a space with several strange things, and you have no idea what it means
<joelteon>
that is installation
<whitequark>
but it's supposedly art
<devyn>
joelteon: I know
<joelteon>
oh
<devyn>
interesting
<joelteon>
whoops
<whitequark>
that's "инсталляция".
<joelteon>
oh, it's an art joke
<joelteon>
it's a "modern art is meaningless" joke?
<joelteon>
or is it contemporary art? i get those mixed up
<whitequark>
the word is used seriously, otherwise yes
<whitequark>
plus it's not really so much of a joke
<whitequark>
I mean, a friend recently visited a modern art exhibit. there were lots of pictures of shitting penises.
<purr>
lol
<devyn>
found it
<whitequark>
devyn: told ya
<devyn>
I hadn't ever heard of it
<whitequark>
ELLIOTTCABLE: honestly though, why are you annoyed even by, say, MLP fanbase?
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
I'm honestly not. Just rationalizing my helping of devyn-trolling for the day.
<devyn>
why don't you just go troll Navarr :)
<whitequark>
or /dev/null
<whitequark>
that would be awesome
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
someday, we're going to discover that a giant government conspiracy has been recording all data sent to /dev/null for *decades*.
<whitequark>
ELLIOTTCABLE: in past tense, that would make an awesome The Onion headline
<devyn>
Snowden leak: NSA put backdoor in Linux /dev/null
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
… and subsequently also find that there's this one guy who's been writing mind-blowing poetry and depositing it on /dev/null, who will thereafter be worshipped as a god for centuries.
<whitequark>
and that would nicely finish the last paragraph.
<whitequark>
ELLIOTTCABLE for The Onion staff!
<whitequark>
let's all donate $1 for his election fundraiser!
<whitequark>
(or is it BTC 1?)
<devyn>
lol there's a big difference
<purr>
lol
<whitequark>
devyn: that's just 3 sigma, it's not statistically significant :]
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
your mom is three sigma
<devyn>
sure, when converting AU to meters
<whitequark>
... that's one data point
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
just GO, bob
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
anybody here watch ReGenesis?
<devyn>
no, but I did watch ReBoot when I was little
<whitequark>
ELLIOTTCABLE: hm, that's either really good or really horrible
<whitequark>
I should watch it
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
it's … mediocre. but I enjoyed it.
<whitequark>
ah, then nope.

<ELLIOTTCABLE>
what the FUCK is this shit

(ReBoot)
<devyn>
an old Vancouver series
<whitequark>
devyn: wow
<whitequark>
so THAT is how it was called
<whitequark>
I caught a glimpse of this when I was, I think, 11
<whitequark>
about five minutes
<whitequark>
on russian TV of course
<devyn>
but hey, I mean, a show designed to teach kids tech jargon
<devyn>
what's not to like
<devyn>
"The defacto army consisted of the CPU police force for Mainframe with a weapon named "The Hardware", a large cannon designed to close a gate to the Web via a blast of energy."
<devyn>
hahahaha
<whitequark>

<ELLIOTTCABLE>
devyn: lolwat
<purr>
lolwat
<devyn>
ah I made a stupid buy because it was 33.1 not 32.1 >_<
<whitequark>
oh, BTC is 912 again. nice.
<devyn>
yep, some "crash" eh?
<whitequark>
yeah
<devyn>
it has "crashed" like 3 times recently
<devyn>
lol
<purr>
lol
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
it's a volatile currency. what do you expect?
* ELLIOTTCABLE
grins
<devyn>
I know
<devyn>
I appreciate that
<whitequark>
I expect exactly this
<devyn>
because I can potentially make money off of stupid people
<devyn>
unless I'm stupid myself
<devyn>
which I just was, short-term :p
alexgordon has quit [Ping timeout: 264 seconds]
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
confused, 32 vs 33 lost you money? how much do you have *invested*?
* whitequark
has not lost anything, but not really gained anything either
<whitequark>
I *know* I can't do it by hand.
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
I've gained a ton; and I expect to gain more
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
tybtc
<devyn>
whitequark: yeah well, I just misread the ticker price. how's that for human error? :p
<whitequark>
so, either I have a bot which I know how it works, which is provably profitable (to some degree), or
<whitequark>
I'm not doing it at all.

lol
<purr>
lol
<whitequark>
devyn: shut up and code <3
<devyn>
right.
<whitequark>
I know it's fascinating to watch
<whitequark>
not unlike an aquarium.
<devyn>
pretty much
<whitequark>
"if that bettyfish swims left, SELL SELL SELL"
<whitequark>
*cough*
<devyn>
lol I bet my bird could predict the market better than I can
<whitequark>
not sure about birds, but there was a study where they used a plasmodium to find a set of optimal connections for tokyo's public transit network
<whitequark>
so, yes, you could probably retrofit some simple organism to use as a market indicator
<whitequark>
that would be amazingly cool and incredibly useless
<alextgordon>
maybe it'll be easier to merge paragraphs than split them
<alextgordon>
actually it will DEFINITELY be easier
<alextgordon>
there's only N-1 ways to merge N paragraphs
<whitequark>
#alexgordon-writing-something
<devyn>
vil: eh, not really a big fan of WP. I flashed my S4 with Android 4.4 recently and I'm loving it
<alextgordon>
#alexgordon-talking-to-himself
<whitequark>
yes
<whitequark>
you should team up with yorickpeterse
<whitequark>
he does that for months on #ruby-lang
<alextgordon>
elliott does it all the time
<alextgordon>
then again, it's ontopic
<whitequark>
idk elliott's silent for ages
<alextgordon>
but sometimes he just spams the whole screen with *thoughts*, you know?
<alextgordon>
I'd hate to see ELLIOTTCABLE orgasm
<whitequark>
no
<alextgordon>
probably duck cum
<alextgordon>
duck cum EVERYWHERE
<whitequark>
alextgordon: "I'd hate to see ELLIOTTCABLE orgasm" wat.
<purr>
beep.
<whitequark>
-wat
<purr>
whitequark: what the ever loving fuck are you saying
<alextgordon>
-wat
<purr>
alextgordon: what the ever loving fuck are you saying
<alextgordon>
:(
<whitequark>
-wat @ purr
<purr>
purr: what the ever loving fuck are you saying
<alextgordon>
ok so, first things first, split into chapters, since there's no way a translator is adding new chapters
<alextgordon>
then split into paragraphs
<whitequark>
there can be auxiliary chapters
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
-what
<purr>
<alexgordon> Euler's artistic penis?
<whitequark>
prefaces, appendices, etc
<whitequark>
-what
<purr>
<elliottcable> After a round of wild sex, elliottcable pedants heavily, trying to regain his breath.
<alextgordon>
true but I can human those out
<alextgordon>
ok so then compute merge points so that we have an equal number of paragraphs for each language
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
wat
<vil>
oh hey alextgordon you grew a t and I didn't even notice
<alextgordon>
so if there's N and M paragraphs in each language, then there's N-1 and M-1 merge points, so something like (N-1)(M-1) ways to combine? probably less
<alextgordon>
vil: it's textual, can't get rid of it
<devyn>
like seriously if you need a splash screen for your website
<devyn>
you are doing something wrong
<vil>
oh my glob this is ridiculous
<whitequark>
"glob" ?
<vil>
that's a thing I'm doing now
<whitequark>
devyn: I guess they're asking hundreds of external APIs
<devyn>
*.*, and then there was light
<whitequark>
ooooh there's an amazing webcomic, mostly about jesus, in russian
<devyn>
lol
<purr>
lol
<whitequark>
no it's really amazing. hilarious, but not hateful
<vil>
devyn: haha
<whitequark>
however, even if I started translating it, I would just give up on about half of it
<whitequark>
partly because it simply cannot be translated
* alextgordon
can't imagine the process for a russian getting a visa in the US
<whitequark>
partly because I'm not that good with words in either russian or english
<alextgordon>
do you have to prove you're not snowden?
<whitequark>
alextgordon: tourist visa? that's done in like two days
<whitequark>
according to the embassy website
<alextgordon>
I'm surprised
<whitequark>
and there's no way in hell I'm getting anything except a tourist visa to US
<alextgordon>
no way it's 2 days if you want to come to the UK :P
<alextgordon>
UK border are nazis
<whitequark>
... or UK
<alextgordon>
no way
<devyn>
lol inb4 US and UK are police states
<alextgordon>
don't believe it :P
<whitequark>
I won't go as far
<whitequark>
but I won't want to live there either
<whitequark>
I've recently estimated things a bit
<devyn>
come to canada, where our prime minister has a war on science
<whitequark>
by US standards, I receive just about minimal wage
<whitequark>
and average wage for a russian my age *in Moscow* would be about 1/4-1/5th of that
<alextgordon>
hehe it's funny, whenever I arrive back at heathrow, they always ask you questions to check you're not a foreigner out to steal jorbs
<alextgordon>
so I put on my strongest london accent
<alextgordon>
always seems to speed things up
<whitequark>
you are a jorb
<devyn>
whitequark: wow, because I make like 40% more than US minimum wage
<devyn>
but shit's expensive here
<whitequark>
devyn: also, I mean after taxes
<devyn>
wait you're comparing US minimum wage before taxes to yours after taxes?
<devyn>
that doesn't make sense
<alextgordon>
but man, the germans are SO much nicer than the brits
<whitequark>
devyn: well, lemme recheck
<whitequark>
what's US minimum wage before taxes, yearly?
<alextgordon>
arrive at germany: looks at passport for 5 seconds, hands passport back
<whitequark>
or more like, I think poverty level was $40?
<whitequark>
*$40k?
<alextgordon>
arrive in UK: looks at passport for half a minute, asks where WHAT THE FUCK YOU WERE DOING, etc
<devyn>
whitequark: well, there are states in the US with minimum wage below the federal minimum, and then some with none
<devyn>
so
<alextgordon>
how does that work
<devyn>
states get quite a lot of autonomy in the US
<alextgordon>
how can you have a minimum wage below the federal minimum?
<alextgordon>
what's the point of a federal minimum if states can override it?
<whitequark>
devyn: well what's teh average number
<vil>
murica
<whitequark>
or something
<vil>
whitequark: $7.40/hr
<devyn>
federal minimum is like recommended or something
<whitequark>
vil: what's that /yr ?
<whitequark>
also is it before or after taxes?
<vil>
dunno, how many hours per week you want?
<vil>
before
<whitequark>
well
<whitequark>
40 ?
<alextgordon>
devyn: and yet, any state with a drinking age below 21 would get their highways funding cut
<alextgordon>
stupid priorities
<devyn>
alextgordon: lol, and war on drugs
<purr>
lol
<devyn>
CONSERVATISM, yay
<devyn>
I realize I'm conflating social conservatives with economic conservatives
<alextgordon>
right now everybody seems to be a social conservative
<vil>
whitequark: $15392
<whitequark>
okay no, that's considerably lower
<devyn>
alextgordon: the UK seems to have lots of social conservatives too, just, a different type
<alextgordon>
devyn: different values
<whitequark>
I think poverty level was $40k
<devyn>
Canada actually shouldn't have that many, but, elections are kind of broken
<whitequark>
but wasn't that for a typical household? that would explain it
<alextgordon>
devyn: like, there's no religion, so there's none of the religious objections for things
<alextgordon>
more "this is the way we've always done it" than "this is what the bible says"
<devyn>
alextgordon: religion in western canada and eastern canada is an entirely different thing. in the west, there are so many different religions that people just don't talk about religion because you're unlikely to find much common ground
<vil>
I would much prefer that type
<devyn>
in the east
<devyn>
it's a bit different
<devyn>
a lot more christian
<devyn>
and then of course, the middle of Canada has lots of rednecks
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
so the terms accurate and precise are too imprecise to be of separate use?
<whitequark>
yep.
<devyn>
I'm sure it comes up often enough to warrant an ISO standardization
<whitequark>
According to ISO 5725-1,[3] the terms trueness and precision are used to describe the accuracy of a measurement. Trueness refers to the closeness of the mean of the measurement results to the actual (true) value and precision refers to the closeness of agreement within individual results. Therefore, according to the ISO standard, the term "accuracy" refers to both trueness and precision.
<devyn>
whitequark: can you add a request rate control option? I don't like testing while knowing that I'm making a zillion requests to BTC-e when I don't really need to be
<whitequark>
devyn: $ make forward
<whitequark>
that forwards the server on othalan locally
<whitequark>
or, hm, is that not good enough?
<devyn>
not good enough, because I need to serve my in dev static files
<whitequark>
right
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
point is, you said precise, and your comment was infinitely precise, but finitely accurate. ;P
<whitequark>
ok I'll do
<whitequark>
ELLIOTTCABLE: WHERE did I say precise?!
<devyn>
thanks <3
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
maybe I missed. idk. can't be arced to look.
<whitequark>
oh, ballpark estimate
<whitequark>
right
<whitequark>
do you have a highlight on "precise"? lol
<purr>
lol
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
girlfriend brought me hot chocolate. love you all. bbl. <3
<devyn>
haha bye ELLIOTTCABLE
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
maybe ;)
<whitequark>
LOL
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
… or maybe I'm just here more often than any of you think.
<whitequark>
devyn: trader.d.byte -slow
<alextgordon>
ELLIOTTCABLE: have fun with your hot... chocolate
<whitequark>
also, seems I need to plug a memory leak >_<
alextgordon has quit [Quit: My iMac has gone to sleep. ZZZzzz…]
<whitequark>
should've written "hot girlfriend brought me hot chocolate"
<whitequark>
or more like
<whitequark>
let x = hot in x girlfriend brought me x chocolate
<whitequark>
I... may have wrote a tad too much ML :3
<whitequark>
ok, plugged one memory leak
<devyn>
hot ELLIOTTCABLE brought me hot girlfriend
<whitequark>
I think you'd curse myself while implementing that :p
<devyn>
ah, that would be cool, and totally possible but a little complicated :p
<whitequark>
duh!
<whitequark>
so, highlighting is totally fine :p
<whitequark>
I've probably seen it on some other exchange
<devyn>
maybe not as complicated as you think though...
<devyn>
anyway.
<devyn>
I can make the whole thing slide up or down and change green/red
<devyn>
the whole number I mean
<whitequark>
let's try it
<devyn>
ok
<whitequark>
sounds nice
<devyn>
hmm, logically, if the value went up, should the value slide up from the bottom or down from the top?
<whitequark>
try both and use whatever doesn't make you cringe
<devyn>
haha
<whitequark>
ooooh
<whitequark>
I was *not* hallucinating.
<whitequark>
switch from a tab for ten minutes or so, then switch back
<whitequark>
it rapidly updates the ticker
<whitequark>
with all the values it has accumulated in the meantime
<whitequark>
resulting in a neat effect.
<devyn>
lol I still can't see it
<purr>
lol
<devyn>
but, if you say so
<whitequark>
I think it requires very particular rate changes to be visible
<whitequark>
and maybe browser-specific
<devyn>
browser-specific is unlikely
<devyn>
chrome and firefox support more or less the same featureset
<devyn>
and no one develops with anything else in mind primarily
<devyn>
:p
<whitequark>
can you attest they handle updates/events on a hidden tab in exact same way?
<devyn>
they both fire events when a window (tab) is/isn't focused
<devyn>
and this would have to be custom
<devyn>
so
<devyn>
whitequark: are you talking about the large ticker between the bets and bids?
<devyn>
er, asks*
<devyn>
I liked the b- consonance
<devyn>
lol
<purr>
lol
<whitequark>
hm, you pushed that already? I'm on the old revision still
<devyn>
the transition? no
<devyn>
lol
<devyn>
talking about bitcoinwisdom
<devyn>
wait
<whitequark>
no, I'm talking about your code lol
<devyn>
are you saying what *I* did is
<whitequark>
the transition in it
<devyn>
whaaaat
<devyn>
that doesn't make any sense
<whitequark>
hahahaha
<devyn>
lol ok
<devyn>
maybe firefox just delays the events until it's focused again?
* devyn
shrugs
<purr>
¯\(º_o)/¯
<whitequark>
I'm using chrome
<devyn>
oh
<devyn>
...kay
<whitequark>
and yes, that's how it looks like
<devyn>
I'm using chromium on linux...
<whitequark>
31.0
<devyn>
31.0 too
<whitequark>
holy fuck chrome is 31 already
<whitequark>
I remember chrome 7
<devyn>
well that's what happens when they push "major" versions out so frequently
<devyn>
and Firefox went to that version model too
<devyn>
heh
<devyn>
whitequark: it is still being buffered quite a bit, so I hope you left that ticket open
<whitequark>
devyn: I did
<whitequark>
what the fuck
<whitequark>
I think I do not know how fds work
<whitequark>
which is... surprising
<whitequark>
After a successful return from one of these system calls, the old and new file descriptors may be used interchangeably. They refer to the same open file description (see open(2)) and thus share file offset and file status flags; for example, if the file offset is modified by using lseek(2) on one of the descriptors, the offset is also changed for the other.
<whitequark>
fuck.
<whitequark>
I thought it was equivalent to reopening file.
<whitequark>
OF COURSE nothing work
<devyn>
ok they fade now but they don't move lol o_O
<purr>
lol
fwg has joined #elliottcable
<whitequark>
amazing
<whitequark>
it took just 22 seconds for ocaml to read, parse, serialize, and write back ~20MB of JSON
<whitequark>
and this is in bytecode
<whitequark>
12 seconds for native code
<whitequark>
mind you it's a JSON parser/serializer implemented in OCaml
<whitequark>
if it was ruby
<whitequark>
I'd still wait after a few hours
<devyn>
that's exaggerating a little bit :p
<whitequark>
actually, no
<whitequark>
the speed of parsing (well, mainly, lexing) ruby code in ruby is about 200kchars/s
<devyn>
ruby's parser is complex as hell
<whitequark>
dude, I wrote that fucking parser
<whitequark>
I know how complex exactly it is
<devyn>
:p
<whitequark>
and no, what takes most time isn't the complexity in parser
<whitequark>
it's mainly logical complexity, not computational
<devyn>
anyway, this is working now; I'm just tweaking it
<whitequark>
what takes most time is goddamn array access
<whitequark>
and string comparison
<whitequark>
well, ok, 100 seconds
<whitequark>
10 times slower than ocaml
<whitequark>
er, 20 times slower--that doesn't count serializing
<whitequark>
I almost finished history endpoint
<devyn>
yep. this is beautiful.
<whitequark>
what?
<devyn>
the ticker effect :p
<whitequark>
which you made?
<devyn>
pushing it
<devyn>
whitequark: it's up
<devyn>
ah, oops, there's a bug
<whitequark>
ooooh amazing
<whitequark>
<3
<devyn>
fixed.
<devyn>
it is
<devyn>
very neat
<whitequark>
devyn: ok, what do you need next from me?
<devyn>
well I'm just going to switch over to the order stream
<whitequark>
ah ok
<devyn>
as before, a way to fetch history would be nice
<whitequark>
I'm wrapping my mind around binary search I have here
<devyn>
mmhm
<whitequark>
so you won't need to give it specific valid keys
<whitequark>
but just a timestamp range
<devyn>
definitely better :p
<devyn>
whitequark: ok, I switched to the orders stream
<devyn>
er
<devyn>
trade stream
<devyn>
lololol
<purr>
lololol
<devyn>
whitequark: also, congrats, you are quicker than bitcoinwisdom
<whitequark>
devyn: unsurprisingly
<devyn>
significantly
<whitequark>
fuck, I can't write a binary search
<devyn>
well I just wrote a fucking awful Date -> "HH:MM:SS" function
<devyn>
:p
<devyn>
fucking JS and its lack of strftime
<whitequark>
no you don't get it
<whitequark>
I'm trying to write a binary search for a hour
<whitequark>
and I cannot
<whitequark>
I wrote... half of binary search
<whitequark>
"find me nearest greater or equal element"
<whitequark>
I can't write "find me nearest lesser or equal emenent"
<devyn>
why?
<whitequark>
idk, it doesn't work
<whitequark>
ok, should have used a piece of paper
