@TildalWave Probably not atm. I think the only advantage over DDR3 is speed?

I'd rather have more RAM + ECC now.

7:09 AM

@TerryChia supposedly its quite a large jump in speed.

Terry Chia

@AviD Same capacity? (I have not looked at what's available at all.)

AviD

@TerryChia well, probably much more pricey.

havent looked closely either, since I would need to rebuild from motherboard up....

@Adnan I prefer this series:

►

Terry Chia

@AviD Hmm, prices not too bad actually. crucial.com/usa/en/memory-ddr4

Looks like 3x the cost of DDR3?

Ignoring of course the new CPU and mobo.

Adnan

@AviD I guess this is the first I'm gonna say this: This one has too little religion. I don't like it.

AviD

@TerryChia less. barely x2.

I just order 16gb DDR3, it cost me around 175USD.

shocking, less than a year ago it was 105 USD.

Terry Chia

7:15 AM

@AviD Ah nice.

Capacity is there so that's good.

Hmmm... those prices are DDR4 ECC?

AviD

yeah I think thats one of the benefits - higher capacity.

thats 16gb on one module.

Terry Chia

Ah yeah.

Definitely not refreshing my desktop anytime soon but be interesting for anyone in the market at the moment.

AviD

its not backwards compatible, is it?

Terry Chia

@AviD I think the mobo is backwards compat so you can plug in DDR3 sticks. Have to check though.

But I doubt the DDR4 sticks work on DDR3 mobos.

And that's pointless anyway.

AviD

heh. but you're reading that wrong, everybody says it backwards. He is the only one of whom this is actually true.

CodesInChaos

yeah.

AviD

He developed the web. Why, what did you think "web developer" means?

Adnan

This cracked me up

Rory Alsop

mornin'

Adnan

Morning!

Rory Alsop

so how is the rest of the world?

Adnan

Cold

It was 2 degrees in the morning

Now it's a whooping 6!

Rory Alsop

@Adnan Was nearly 20 degrees over the weekend. Now down to 12

Ended up spending almost all weekend outside

was lovely

AviD

8:42 AM

I am pleased to say that it has started cooling off here. Or rather, stopped heating up - been a pleasant 23C most of the day, still a tad warm, but not oppressive.

Rory Alsop

lol

AviD

I know, I know... anything above 18C is oppressive for you.

Rory Alsop

@AviD heh - sunshine is oppressive to the classic ginger Scotsman. Luckily I'm not ginger or classic

And high temperatures are only a challenge when dressed

Terry Chia

@RoryAlsop Oh please, you are the very definition of classic.

In this instance "classic" == "old".

AviD

@RoryAlsop predefines classic.

@TerryChia He is the very image of a modern major general.

Terry Chia

8:46 AM

@AviD hahaha!

Rory Alsop

@AviD nah - can't grow a good moustache, and I like being scruffy

AviD

wanna borrow my cannon?

NOT A EUPHEMISM

so... Node. Javascript, on the server. Come on then, bring it. I have my stupid hat on.

Rory Alsop

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha - it so was

Terry Chia

@AviD You have gone to the dark side haven't you?

Rails, now Node?

What's next? Kotlin?

@AviD You and @Adnan have a weird affinity for each other.

Rory Alsop

@TerryChia even better if you also include the next starred line

or even the next 3

hahahahaha

Terry Chia

@RoryAlsop Typical DMZ star wall.

AviD

@TerryChia heh. Not gonna write it, or even use it, hopefully not read too much of it. But I need to understand it.

Terry Chia

@AviD Get ready for callback hell then. :(

It's a completely retarded programming model for concurrency.

AviD

oh I know that already.

whoooollleeeey frak.

seems their package manager is case sensitive.

so e.g. there is a jQuery and also a jquery. #FML

#Simon.

Terry Chia

@AviD I think you mean "is case sensitive"?

AviD

yes, thats what I said.

Terry Chia

9:15 AM

And ok, that's retarded.

AviD

►

hehe, booty traps. Classic.

heh, reading the history:

> Originally Dahl had several failed projects in C, Lua, and Haskell, ...

And add another failed project to the list.

To clarify: popular != not failed.

of course that depends on what his goals were...

Adnan

9:39 AM

@AviD @RoryAlsop and possibly @FEichinger. Could one of you guys please give the SE people a friendly ping about this and this?

If not for solving it, at least to give some official answer. It's really excluding everybody who is looking to promote their activity on non-SO sites.

Rory Alsop

9:55 AM

@Adnan how do you get onto careers SE - I have been trying to find it, as in my memory I was sure that I only had Security tags appearing on it

AviD

@RoryAlsop careers.stackoverflow.com/roryalsop

Rory Alsop

thanks @AviD

Adnan

@RoryAlsop Yup, as you can see, your tag is coming from SO for security

Rory Alsop

Ah - you are right

Adnan

It would be very nice if the tag stats come from other sites

Because I really don't feel like showing this

Rory Alsop

9:59 AM

I only have 1k on SO, out of 150k across the network (90k on my top 6 sites) so I definitely agree with you. Lemme ping TL to see if we can raise some awa\reness

AviD

@Adnan you luuuurve dat php

phpluvver

benny luvver

@RoryAlsop it wont help. Only programmers need jobs.

Adnan

@RoryAlsop Yeah, let's raise dem Awa Reness!

Rory Alsop

am on an unfamiliar keyboard today

AviD

shouldnt that be awa

Rory Alsop

made by some company called HP - it's not the right size/shape

Oh, I like it. Its just a pain to shuck.

Adnan

@RoryAlsop Of course it's bad. It's has 66% PHP

Rory Alsop

lol

Adnan

Shower me with starz!!!

AviD

TWSS

Adnan

@AviD Yeah, I started on SO in a dark period in my life.

Terry Chia

10:07 AM

@AviD He can be best friends with @Fei.

AviD

no, that would bring the stupidularity.

Terry Chia

@AviD Nah, that's @Simon and @Lighty.

Lighty

hush, i' m not stupid, i'm Young, thats different

Adnan

@Lighty How's your tannin?

Lighty

@Adnan Tannin?

Adnan

10:10 AM

Because you're Young.

AviD

@Lighty how so?

Lighty

right

@AviD because, inexperience does not make a person stupid

Adnan

@TerryChia and be semi-associated with Kalina? No, thank you.

@Lighty No no no

You're inexperienced AAAND stupid

Lighty

@Adnan i'm naaawt stoopid, im spechul D:

AviD

The difference between young and stupid, is that the young think its a matter of time, and the stupid think its a matter of times.

I like to think that the code I’m writing now is creating hundreds of jobs for future generations to debug. I am a giver.

Q: BItcoin Market Language

I got hired to create a bitcoin marketplace like CrytoThrift and Bitmit. What do you think the best language would be security-wise? PHP or Ruby on Rails? I've had much more trouble with PHP being vulnerable than Ruby on Rails. Security is very important to me and I want to make sure I make the r...
