Radar: I know it's rehearsed, but I prefer reading
dark on bright rather than the opposite. |
| rindolf |
Radar: let me see if there's an alternate
stylesheet. |
| Radar |
rindolf: Command+Option+Control+8 |
| workmad3 |
heh |
| rindolf |
Radar: I'm not on a Mac. |
| Radar |
rindolf: then whatever the shortcut is for you to
invert your screen. |
| rindolf |
Radar: Firefox 4.0 on Mandriva Linux Cooker on an
old P4-2.4GHz. |
| rindolf |
Radar: yeah.... |
| rindolf |
Radar: that way XChat and Pidgin will be in
technicolour. |
| workmad3 |
Radar: so, once you've gotten Rails 3.1 in Action
out, are you going to be going for Rails 3.2 in Action on
Windows? |
| rindolf |
Well, I applied a no-stylesheet. |
| Radar |
workmad3: Rails 3.2 in Action on Windows(r) 7(tm)
actually. |
| workmad3 |
Radar: I'll reserve my copy now :D |
| rindolf |
Radar: good luck with that. |
| rindolf |
Radar: will the book be available online for free
view/download? |
| workmad3 |
rindolf: a windows book? for free? |
| workmad3 |
are you crazy??? |
| rindolf |
workmad3: Windows? |
| rindolf |
workmad3: it's about Rails. |
| Radar |
rindolf: no it will cost money |
| rindolf |
Radar: ah, OK. :-( |
| workmad3 |
Rails 3.2 In Action on Windows(r) 7(tm) |
| workmad3 |
it'll cost big bucks!! |
| rindolf |
workmad3: heh. |
| rindolf |
Ultimate Premium. |
| Radar |
Yes, I'm going to spend a year of my life writing
a book and then release it for free, yay |
| Radar |
how about no? |
| workmad3 |
Radar: don't forget the Enterprise Rails 3.2 on
Windows In Action 7(tw) |
| workmad3 |
you can charge double for that one... it has
enterprise in the title! |
| Radar |
workmad3: how did you know about the third
installment of the trilogy?! only Yehuda and I know of that |
| workmad3 |
Radar: I'm really yehuda in disguise |
| workmad3 |
dammit... I should have waited 25 mins to reveal
that... |
| rindolf |
Radar: well, I'm now working on an EPUB of
http://www.shlomifish.org/humour/TheEnemy/ but DocBook/XML is
giving me some grief in generating a valid EPUB. |
| rindolf |
I think I'll fix the EPUB manually. |
| rindolf |
I'll have to study the EPUB format. |
| rindolf |
Radar: it's a story - not a technical book. |
| rindolf |
Radar: http://perl-begin.org/ - this took me
several years to work on (well not 100% of the time) and it's
mostly CC-by. |
| workmad3 |
rindolf: who'd pay for stuff on perl though?
:P |
| rindolf |
workmad3: you'd be surprised. |
| workmad3 |
rindolf: I doubt it |
| rindolf |
workmad3: I think chromatic's latest "Modern Perl"
book was a smashing success. |
| workmad3 |
my sense of surprise has been surgically
removed |
| rindolf |
workmad3: even though it was available online the
whole time. |
| rindolf |
workmad3: but Perl is a bit passé and
established. |
| rindolf |
Radar: people will torrent your book/etc. |
| workmad3 |
also, I think I need to colour my sarcastic text
differently |
| rindolf |
workmad3: ah, OK. |
| workmad3 |
or maybe just my non-sarcastic text |
| rindolf |
chromatic did an awesome job. |
| workmad3 |
would probably be easier |
| rindolf |
Use <sarcasm> ... </sarcasm> |
| workmad3 |
too much typing |
| rindolf |
Human XML. |
| rindolf |
Write an IRC client macro for that. |
| workmad3 |
I'll just put <nonsarcasm> when I'm not
being sarcastic |
| rindolf |
Heh. |
| workmad3 |
assume that previous one was escaped |
| rindolf |
XSS! |

1+1 = 2. [citation needed] |
| rindolf |
I like this channel. |
| rindolf |
But I admit I'm not big into rails. |
| workmad3 |
it doesn't like you |
| workmad3 |
it's looking at you funny |
| workmad3 |
muttering under it's breath |
| workmad3 |
:P |
| rindolf |
Most of my sites are hosted on something which I
don't care what it runs or alternatively static HTML sites. |
| rindolf |
workmad3: :-) |
| rindolf |
I'm so making a fortune out of this
conversation. |
| rindolf |
workmad3: have you ever considered being a
stand-up comedian? |
| workmad3 |
rindolf: nah... I'm too lazy |
| rindolf |
workmad3: ah. |
| workmad3 |
rindolf: if I could sit down while doing it, I'd
be a millionaire :P |
| rindolf |
workmad3: heh. |
| rindolf |
workmad3: more like a milliardaire. |
