8:00 PM

Yes i got it

Damkerng T.

Its size is only about the size of a credit card and only a couple of centimeters high.

Hanaa

You mean appropriate and comfortable

Damkerng T.

I mean small, and not too difficult to get it to work and customize.

Hanaa

Yes

Iplodman

Yo yo yo, amigos!

How're we all today? :)

Damkerng T.

8:01 PM

Yo!

Hanaa

Hhhhh

Damkerng T.

@Iplodman I still don't get why he didn't simply pass the ball to his half back. :-)

Hanaa

We are not yo yo but fine

Damkerng T.

Why - did - he - throw!?!

Hanaa

How about u@Iplodman?

Iplodman

8:03 PM

@DamkerngT. Ah, sports! What happened? ;P

Damkerng T.

I think Iplodman is an amigo today. :-)

Iplodman

@Hanaa I'm feeling pretty proud of myself-- I made a chat room!

Damkerng T.

@Iplodman Patriots intercepted the ball in the last 20 seconds, and the game was over.

Iplodman

@DamkerngT. I am 100% amigo today ;P

@DamkerngT. Ooooh :c

Damkerng T.

Which wouldn't happen if he simply passed it over!

@Iplodman Hehe!

Iplodman

8:04 PM

Hanaa

Congrats ! @Iplodman

Iplodman

@Hanaa Thanks ;P

I'm styling it, then I'll add more features (like usernames, etc.).

Damkerng T.

Hanaa

Make its colour green

Iplodman

Green? :o

Hanaa

8:06 PM

It is not an order . It is a

Suggestion

Iplodman

It's grey at the moment.

I was thinking of a blue.

Anonymous

@Iplodman Woo hoo!

Damkerng T.

Oh, blue is nice, too!

Hanaa

Blue is good too

Damkerng T.

I don't know why, but everything IT should be blue. :D

Hanaa

8:07 PM

But is number three fr me

Iplodman

Blue is my favorite color.

I also approve of sandwiches.

Damkerng T.

@Iplodman Are you using Node.js?

Iplodman

8:08 PM

@snailboat My fake conversation is the best.

@DamkerngT. Yup!

Damkerng T.

Cool!

Iplodman

It's a great language <3

Damkerng T.

nods -- If used properly, btw. :D

Iplodman

Yeah ;P

Hanaa

What is it?

Iplodman

8:09 PM

Don't go building video-converting sites with it.

@Hanaa JavaScript, but server-side.

Damkerng T.

@Iplodman I always wonder if those sites legal.

Iplodman

Regular JS is on your machine.

Anonymous

@DamkerngT. That clause no verb

Hanaa

I. should let the programmers speak

Anonymous

@Hanaa It's okay. Programmers have a habit of doing that anyway.

Damkerng T.

8:10 PM

@snailboat Ah, I don't know where the copula verb was gone!

Anonymous

Feel free to interject with actual English-related stuff at any time :-)

Iplodman

@Hanaa "I need to bring my algorithm down from the order on log(n^2)... computers... things... devdevdevdevdev..."

Hanaa

Hhhh

Iplodman

I'm having some trouble with JQuery.

$('html', 'body').scrolltop($(document).height()-$(window).height());

Why you no work? ;-;

Seen it.

Missed camelCasing on scrollTop ;P

Hanaa

Oh no

Damkerng T.

8:12 PM

camelCasing is important.

Iplodman

I thought that was it. Apparently not :c

I'm an underscore_naming_convention kinda' guy.

Damkerng T.

I'm an all lowercase guy.

Sometimes camelCase if I'm in a good mood.

Iplodman

Ooooh, really?

Sucks air through teeth

Damkerng T.

Yes, movethisthingoverthere(). Like that. :-)

Iplodman

thisisn'teasytoread,whichiswhywesplitthingsupabit.

Hanaa

8:14 PM

Camecase=!?

Iplodman

thisIsCamelcase.

First word lowercase, rest of the words capitalized from then on out.

Hanaa

A ha

Damkerng T.

I'd say (programming) language we use also influence our choice

Iplodman

@DamkerngT. What do you mean?

Damkerng T.

movethisthingoverthere() surely doesn't look good in JavaScript.

But it looks fine in other languages, e.g. Tcl.

Anonymous

8:17 PM

People tend to do what other people do.

Anonymous

Languages have associated cultures.

Anonymous

Of course, you don't have to.

Iplodman

@DamkerngT. * > I'd say the (programming) language we use also influences our choice.

@snailboat PEP8 for Python, as an example.

Damkerng T.

Because we tend to wrap them inside a command inside another command anyway.

@Iplodman Oh, yes. I was too worried about that (programming) in the parentheses.

Iplodman

@DamkerngT. ;P

Hanaa

8:18 PM

°-°

Damkerng T.

See, typing is unlike speaking. Speaking is linear. Typing is not.

In Tcl, chances are movethisthingoverthere() will become [this move there].

See, it's less complex.

Iplodman

Hm.

That makes sense.

Anonymous

@Hanaa Hehe, that's cute

Iplodman

I think @Hanaa is lost ;P

Join the dev side, Han!

Damkerng T.

I wonder what Unicode chars are those. :-)

Iplodman

8:21 PM

Python 2.7.8 (default, Jun 30 2014, 16:03:49) [MSC v.1500 32 bit (Intel)] on win
32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> ord("°")
248
>>>

Gotta' love Python.

Damkerng T.

lol -- Nice!

Anonymous

Yep! It's DEGREE SIGN

Iplodman

Ahahah ;P

God dammit JQuery!

Just scroll the damn page, will ya'?!

Anonymous

(Unicode names for characters are ALL UPPERCASE WITH SPACES WHICH IS POSSIBLY BETTER THAN CAMELCASE)

Iplodman

GOOD, BUT USELESS FOR INTERPRETATION BY LANGUAGES.

'SPACE' works for Unicode, because Unicode isn't a programming language.

Damkerng T.

8:24 PM

@Iplodman Will this work: window.scrollTo(0, 0)?

@snailboat I used to write FORTRAN in ALLCAPS!

Oh, and COBOL, too.

Anonymous

@DamkerngT. Well, it was.

Anonymous

FORTRAN 77 → Fortran 90

Damkerng T.

Oh, Fortran 90 accepts lowercase chars, too? Nice.

Iplodman

@DamkerngT. Narp?

Can I have a cookie anyway?

Anonymous

I like cookies.

Iplodman

Sure.

Anonymous

Yay!

Iplodman

Hands cookie

Om, nom, nom …

Iplodman

8:27 PM

It's from Hot Fuzz ;P

Damkerng T.

The only cookies I like are edible.

Anonymous

Ohh, I've seen Shaun of the Dead, but not that

Damkerng T.

@snailboat Aww.. that sounds delicious!

Iplodman

@snailboat Watch it when you can, it's brilliant c:

I was a bit let down by World's End.

Damkerng T.

@Iplodman Oh, really? I think it's kinda fun.

Hanaa

8:29 PM

:D don't worry, i'm reading an article @snailboat @Iplodman

Damkerng T.

(In a goofy way.)

Iplodman

Not a great film though :c

I didn't really enjoy it.

@Hanaa ;P

Damkerng T.

Aww... but it's the first one that aliens are hollow!

@Hanaa Ah, via the cookies?

Anonymous

My cookie didn't have an article in it. Or if it did, then it was better tasting than the last article I ate.

Damkerng T.

Hanaa

8:31 PM

@DamkerngT. Cookies? Which cookies?

Damkerng T.

Oh, so it's not about cookies. I didn't know but it looked like everyone was talking about cookies.

Hanaa

You eat articles@snailboat! Hhhhhh

Damkerng T.

Oh, Fox uses all-lowercase too! Fox: the best animation channel in asia

Hanaa
