user136984

@GeorgetheDev: That's only the American way of writing it! >:{

@AlexA.: You are sure that you are not confusing things? Perhaps this room is fine, and it is just you. :P

@GeorgetheDev my favorite app is VirtualBox.

@GeorgetheDev what is my favorite app?

@GeorgetheDev what time is it?

@NathanOsman The current time is Thu, 30 Jul 2015 20:34:30 GMT.

So at least one module is broken...

@GeorgetheDev what is my favorite game?

@GeorgetheDev what is my favorite app?

@NathanOsman Your favorite app is virtualbox.

@NathanOsman How should I know?

8:44 PM

@GeorgetheDev Thank you.

@NathanOsman You're welcome!

@NathanOsman See you later.

[superuser]

@GeorgetheDev what is (12 + 6) * 12 ^ 0?

@NathanOsman 216

O... kay.

@GeorgetheDev what is 1+1?

9:05 PM

@NathanOsman 2

I'm starting to wonder if "^" means "exponent" in JavaScript...

@GeorgetheDev what is 2^32?

@Fabby 34

@GeorgetheDev what is 2³?

@Fabby 2

9:11 PM

Definitely a problem with exponents...

@GeorgetheDev what is 10E20*10E20?

@Fabby 10

He can't read the first "E" so your input looks like just the number "10" to him.

@NathanOsman math.pow()

Ah.

@GeorgetheDev What is 5.23e2?

9:16 PM

Just restarted him.

Try again.

@GeorgetheDev What is 5^2?

Oh hang on.

hanging...

Hanging some more and fetching a smoke and a drink...

He will only accept expressions containing numbers, "+", "-", "*", and "/" now.

You'll get an awkward silence for anything else.

@NathanOsman Cheat!

;-)

9:24 PM

Now for some fun.

@GeorgetheDev what is 1/0?

@NathanOsman Infinity

Pats George on the head.

@GeorgetheDev what is 9999999*9999999*9999999*9999999*9999999?

@NathanOsman 9.999995000001002e+34

^--- is very big number

Don't you use math.eval()?

9:26 PM

There's no Math.eval().

user139252

@GeorgetheDev Who is my favourite person?

@HeatherBrown Your favorite person is me.

Heh.

@GeorgetheDev My favourite girl is Наталия

user139252

LIES! I found a bug!

9:36 PM

@HeatherBrown :D

@GeorgetheDev what is my favourite girl?

@Fabby Your favorite girl is наталия.

@NathanOsman: Russian: I'm impressed!

@GeorgetheDev what is your favourite OS?

@GeorgetheDev your favourite computer is Siemens

user139252

Darn.

@GeorgetheDev what is your favorite computer?

@Fabby I don't have a favorite computer.

@NathanOsman no setting his variables? Only built-in?

9:39 PM

Only built-in.

We can't have him saying random things people teach him :P

user139252

That got bad with my old egg-drop bot, Troy.

user139252

Somebody repeatedly responded to his occasional "How are you?" queries with obscenities.

user139252

Then, whenever somebody said "How are you?", Troy would respond with a line of obscenities.

Lol... but that would be bad.

George is pretty clever.

@NathanOsman Isn't that the first step to self-awareness???

9:42 PM

No.

(or are you thinking about the variable I set for myself?)

user139252

I'm a self aware computer. I started out as just a lonely little C64. Now I live in a warehouse with IBM.

@HeatherBrown :D:D:D

@NathanOsman OK, looks like I'll have to get back to JavaScript programming and make him an excuse generator...

;-)

Not today though

If you want to just give me a list of excuses, I can add them.

user139252

So these bots are js-based?

9:46 PM

I need to review a course about IBM rational doors...

I'll email the Jscript source...

Do you know what a WSF file is?

user139252

A windows script file?

:-)

Yes... But @Nathan just got sent one...

user139252

I thought Nathan made George?

@NathanOsman (apparently I only have your notifications github mail)

user139252

I don't know what's going on.

9:52 PM

@NathanOsman So I made a wild guess...

user139252

I bought the wrong darn license.

@HeatherBrown Yes, I just sent him some source code to include in george

user139252

I bought a license for regular Callie, not RPI callie

user139252

I want to make George better!

it's jscript, but that's close to JavaScript.

user139252

9:53 PM

Workday is done.

user139252

Goodbye, @GeorgetheDev

@HeatherBrown See you later.

user139252

:D

Yup, he's written in JavaScript.

The entire thing is run under PhantomJS, which runs headless.

I didn't get an NDR, so it should be in your inbox...

9:56 PM

Yup.

I received it. Thanks!

It should be ready by the weekend, hopefully.

:-) Haven't touched the source in 7 years but should run out-of-the-box on Windows...

(cscript or wscript)

And should be easily modifiable...

Don't worry about timing...

Everyone is going to use him though (based on my past experience)

Anyway, shutting down and then follow some boring PM course...

@NathanOsman do you use tox?

Nope.

OK... If you ever need me and I'm not on-line, I should be easy to find in skype (for you)
