Gabriel Tomitsuka

Hey

Anyone there?

Sam

Yarp.

Unihedro

Nope.

Oh hi!

Gabriel Tomitsuka

Hi

Sam

Hi

Hi

Gabriel Tomitsuka

Guys is there anything wrong with mixing single quotes and double quotes in JS?

Sam

Probably.

Gabriel Tomitsuka

I tried and it runs fine, but I believe it's a bad practice...

Unihedro

@GabrielTomitsuka What do you mean? In Javascript, string literals are sequences surrounded by a pair of single quotes / double quotes. By definition, mixing does work, but is no longer a literal.

Gabriel Tomitsuka

@Unihedro Oh thanks.

Gham

5:07 PM

Hallo!

Unihedro

:O

He's alive!

Sam

:O

Unihedro

@Gham Hiya!

Oh, no parrot mode.

Sam

Sorry, it was just a "Hallo" test.

Unihedro

:p

Sam

5:08 PM

goes to enable parrot mode...

Unihedro

:o

Gabriel Tomitsuka

@Gham Hey! Who are you?

(Please don't say he's a bot)

Unihedro

@GabrielTomitsuka He's Sam's bot.

Also known as a testpuppet for CE.Net. My testpuppet for JCE is Nord.

Gabriel Tomitsuka

Nice.

Unihedro

Still trying to resolve issue #33...

Oh, random bug suddenly disappeared.

Gham

5:11 PM

Hallo!

Unihedro

@Gham Welcome back!

Vogel612

hmm... what did you to, to make bugs suddenly disappear?

Gham

:123661 Welcome back!

Unihedro

bug

Vogel612

aaand reply failure

Sam

5:12 PM

Oh.

Darn.

Is CE.Net borked? :p

Erm...

@Gham hiya

:123661 hiya

Magic number?

5:13 PM

yaaay magic string literals!/ numbers/ whatever!!

Sam

Nope, it's just my rubbish test code.

@Gham RaWr @Sam

:123661 RaWr

I approve.

I put the user's ID, instead of the message ID.

Unihedro

5:13 PM

Oh. Whoops.

Vogel612

so.... you're "coding" ;)

Gham

Hallo!

Sam

Yeah, it was only a quick throw-together. ;)

@Gham Sup.

Gham

@Gham Sup.

Sam

facepalm

Unihedro

5:14 PM

@Gham hiya

@Gham hiya

@Gham hey

@Gham hey

Nope

Well at least this shows how much you could play around with CE.Net :D

Gabriel Tomitsuka

5:15 PM

Oh yes

Sam

No Gham, we want the message's ID, not the parent ID.

Decent functionality

Yeah, thanks :D

Hallo!

@Gham Lets try this again...

Gham

5:16 PM

@Sam Lets try this again...

Sam

Ugh, goodness.

That ping.

I still haven't finished parsing all the chat events.

Unihedro

@Gham yawn

Gham

@Unihedro yawn

@Unihedro I think you are an awesome person.

Unihedro

Ugh, I'm tired.

Sam

:D

Unihedro

5:18 PM

But must finish PR... O-o

Sam

Don't kill yourself over it ;)

Gabriel Tomitsuka

@Gham What about simple pings, not replies?

Gham

@GabrielTomitsuka What about simple pings, not replies?

Gabriel Tomitsuka

Nice

Sam

@GabrielTomitsuka He picks up any ping.

Hi @Gha

Gham

5:19 PM

@Sam Hi

@Gha. hi

@Unihedro . hi

Eh.

More regex!

RegexOverflow

5:22 PM

The culprit.

Gham

Hiya ProgramFOX

ProgramFOX

... another testing room?

Vogel612

naah it's Uni's private office

Unihedro

^

Vogel612

don't disturb him though, he's currently working on a PullRequest for JavaBot

I don't intend for this to be our Nth hideout though, so I still prefer the pond for anything slightly more important than rambling :D

And we always have the secret / anti pond for discussions that we can take notes at. :p

Sam

^

Vogel612

um... question. Is the room header also SO for you`?

ProgramFOX

yes

Vogel612

this is the se-domain, how did that get here?

ProgramFOX

@Vogel612 You can create a room on chat.SE with SO as parent site.

Unihedro

5:27 PM

@Vogel612 I created the room on chat.SE with the parent room as SO.

Vogel612

facedesk

that's so completely... why???

Unihedro

@Vogel612 Because I needed an office, and I'm in too many rooms on chat.SO to feel a need for another room there.

And a mod will stab me if I start one on meta.SE.

Ok, the problem was related to how I tried to be clever and wrote code with side effects, which didn't work out.

And I just did it again.

facedesk

Sam

lol

Just another day at the office.

Unihedro

Yes, I like not having to yell at myself IRL, especially since these quiet hours in midnight are really quiet.

Gham

5:44 PM

Hiya Shaiq

Gabriel Tomitsuka

I feel pretty lonely when I write a GitHub wiki on a private repo...

4

Unihedro

@GabrielTomitsuka I assume your private repo is closed access?

Gabriel Tomitsuka

Yes.

Gham

Cya Shaiq

Unihedro

you're doing it wrong

Gabriel Tomitsuka

5:55 PM

I?

Or Sam?

Unihedro

The way you use github :p

Gabriel Tomitsuka

:P

Unihedro

Why don't you host your own repositories instead?

Meanwhile, my github package status:

> You have an outstanding discount request for @Vincentyification. We will get back to you soon.

Gabriel Tomitsuka

Because server usage is life.

Unihedro

soon - come on now, it's been almost two months

Gabriel Tomitsuka

5:56 PM

@Unihedro The 5 private repos aren't enough; I bought the $12 package.

Soon I'll be needing the unlimited pack...

Unihedro

@GabrielTomitsuka Good; Keep github online and running :)

We (as in we) used to have a paid Bitbucket organization, which gave free unlimited repositories; it soon grew boring though, so we hosted the code ourselves

It was about as costly, but we took advantage of it and installed our own jenkins :)

Gabriel Tomitsuka

@Unihedro Why do you think I make money? FOR SUPPORTING GITHUB!

Unihedro

@GabrielTomitsuka Or you can support developers you like instead!

Gabriel Tomitsuka

@Unihedro Wait; I will pay you. Just wait. Probably March I'll receive the main project budget.

Unihedro

Nah, I was just kidding.

Most of the money I make goes back to server uptime and meals to survive anyway.

The rest are savings for when something terrible happens; hopefully never
