Hmm, @kalina, I might be able to get a PieSpy thing for chat

kalina

I've got a potential solution for that already

what were you thinking?

Kevin van der Velden

Either rip open the source code so I can just talk to it over whatever or create a scraper that just posts it into an IRC channel

kalina

I was just going to get manish's python chat bot and adapt it to write logs in a format that piespy expects

I wouldn't retrospectively scrape the entire transcript

Kevin van der Velden

@kalina I wasn't going to scrape the entire transcript, but a few days would be usefull as initial data

Hmm, doesn't the data dump include chat?

kalina

you mean data.se?

no

Q: Crawling the chat transcripts

I want to make a usable chat search and in order to do this I want to gather the chat messages from SO. AFAIK chat is not in the data dump nor is it available through the API. So I want to crawl the chat transcripts for messages. As a test I will start with the transcript of room 11 by starting...

@badp You don't have pirates in Italy?

badp

@MartinSojka Nope

Well

but they fucked up with branding and got a really teensy tiny amount of votes

they didn't show up with the flag logo etc. and I still don't know if it was the real thing or one of those useless novelty parties that pop up shortly before an election and die immediately after

fredley

@Qwertie It's a testing function

Kevin van der Velden

@Michel no idea, I had to look up what symbolic programming is.

kalina

no brain, it's not sleepy time, WAKE UP BRAIN, WAKE UP

Kevin van der Velden

@kalina 3 CUPS OF COFFEE, STAT!

Michel

10:30 AM

Symbolic programming

In computing, symbolic programming is computer programming in which the program can manipulate formulas and program components as data. Through symbolic programming, complex processes can be developed that build other more intricate processes by combining smaller units of logic or functionality. Programs can thus effectively modify themselves, and appear to "learn", making them suited for applications such as artificial intelligence, expert systems, natural language processing and computer games. Languages that support the symbolic programming paradigm include LISP and Prolog. Referenc...

Kevin van der Velden

@Michel yes, that is where I had looked it up

Matt Эллен

if you're writing LISP then emacs is the obvious choice for IDE

Michel

@kalina And I was thinking (I must be the only one...)

Martin Sojka

@Michel Since we're in the Bridge and you said "start" ... Inform7. No clue if it's a "good" one though.

Michel

kalina

10:32 AM

I'm not sure that's entirely your choice

Michel

@kalina :(

Kevin van der Velden

@kalina I'm pretty damn sure it isn't

Michel

@MartinSojka tks, will take a look ^_^

Martin Sojka

@Michel It's very ... unconventional. But it's quick to learn the basics and allows you to easily change its own rules on the fly, which - when you grok what it does - certainly widens your horizons in terms of how you approach certain problems.

spyder

Hey guys, I have an ideological question about MVP. Filtering of user data should occur on view? Or on presenter?

Kevin van der Velden

@spyder depends on what you are filtering I suppose

kalina

@Wipqozn haha

Kevin van der Velden

If you're filtering things that are removed and such model layer, if it's a permissions thing, presenter I think

Wipqozn

10:43 AM

@spyder I'd say either is fine. I'd prefer doing it in the presenter.

Martin Sojka

@spyder Generally, presenter. Unless you mean something like "this is a numeric input field, stop trying to write 'PENIS' in here."

Trent Hawkins

@kalina I have something that might cure this. or make it worse.

spyder

@KevinvanderVelden for example: I have a some value in percents, i.e. it must not be greater than 100 and less than 0.

Wipqozn

@MartinSojka What is the numeric input field is in a base 30 numbering system, huh?! WHAT THEN?!!?

kalina

@TrentHawkins I have to question whether or not I want to see whatever you're suggesting

Kevin van der Velden

10:46 AM

@Wipqozn then whatever alien that uses base 30 numbering system can bloody well translate it themselves! Bloody immigrants, always ruining our math

Trent Hawkins

@kalina It's still Wrecking Ball. Just with less Miley Cyrus and more... hmm, not sure if his name alone would be NSFW...

Wipqozn

@KevinvanderVelden Bah!

kalina

Wipqozn

I have no idea what wrecking ball is.

In fact I have no idea what any of her songs are.

kalina

it's a song

Kevin van der Velden

10:48 AM

@Wipqozn it is a device you use to wreck stuff

Miley cyrus is a figment of kalina's imagination

kalina

in which miley cyrus switches between being in her underwear and naked

singing about how some guy trashed her heart

Wipqozn

All I know about Miley Cyrus is her new hair cut looks dumb and that a lot of old guys have a creepy thing for her.

Matt Эллен

kalina

well, generally guys tend to have creepy things for girls that take their clothes off and post it on the internet

Wipqozn

That's true!

kalina

Wipqozn

Well, I wasn't really blaming them.

Martin Sojka

@Wipqozn Speaking as someone who's great-grandfather (the guy in my avatar) married a 24-year old women when he was 50 (and managed to have a child, too), I'm not inclined to agree ...

(But then, that guy was quite a womaniser ...)

Wipqozn

@MartinSojka There's a difference between 50 and 24 and 50 and 14.

TZHX

I think there's quite a difference between 50 and 24 and 40 and 14.

One is illegal in most places, for a start.

Martin Sojka

10:58 AM

@Wipqozn You wrote 40, not 50. Same age difference, you just need to wait a few years.

Wipqozn

@MartinSojka IT's not the age difference.

It's the fact the person is only 14.

Journeyman Geek

@JourneymanGeek Biology (and that's where the elder guys having hots for 14-year olds comes in) doesn't change nearly as quickly though.

Journeyman Geek

There's a difference between having the hots for, and actually showing it tho

Wipqozn

@kalina I'm checking that now.

Two sets of game per each.

One question per generation should be reasonable, then.

kalina

Yeah sounds reasonable

Wipqozn

I believe this question is too broad when you have it covering multiple generations, especially when you consider that each generation tends to have multiple sets of games in it. I'd suggest asking a separate question for each generation to narrow your scope. — Wipqozn 8 secs ago

LessPop_MoreFizz

i.e. organizing information across games that are linked like this, when sufficiently narrowly scoped (and again, I don't know enough about Pokemon to say whether it is or isn't, but if the preliminary list in the question represents a plurality, I'd argue it probably is.) is something that we are very well suited to.

As you probably know, some in-game events are unlocked if you go to a specific place while having a specific Pokémon on you or in the first party slot. What I want is a complete list of those events. I'm mainly interested in events unlocking other Pokémon (such as the Sinjoh ruins event) and less...

@Wipqozn I'm not going to be a jerk with my newfound diamond and all, but in light of an answer being posted that attests to completeness, I'm going to encourage you to reconsider your close vote.

And now it's time for me to go to work.

@Michel I encourage you to scroll up and read my conversation with @Wipqozn on the subject.

Sterno has doomed us all by adding Wipqozn to the list of this room's owners.

@StrixVaria I was in a hurry.

Wipqozn

After having a conversation with LessPop in chat, in addition to the answer showing the scope, I've decided to reconsider my close vote and have thus voted to re-open. I was under the impression that there were 5-6 of these events per game, but it appears I was just remembering incorrectly. — Wipqozn 16 secs ago

I've got to say, I feel like quite the bad ass when I answer a question by referencing three other answers by me in my new answer.

kalina

@badp sigh, there goes my day

Wipqozn

Also, that answer by the new user is decent as well. More details would be nice, but his suggestions are sound and well written.

@kalina OH WOW, THIS IS FANTASTIC. THANKS FOR THE TIP.

Actually I should toss one more quote in there.

and by "should" I mean "I just did"

kalina

and by "their" you mean "there"

LessPop_MoreFizz

@kalina I'M NOT SURE, BUT I'D GUESS THAT @ORIGAMIROB WOULD SAY IT HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH AUTOCAD.

I have no idea what you're talking about. You're crazy.

@Wipqozn so they keep telling me

I think we can unpin @Gnomeslice's shame.

@LessPop_MoreFizz You shouldn't make fun of people with disabilities.

the nice thing about not being elected is when I hit 20k it'll actually mean something.

Q: Where to look which Pokémons are banned in rated matchmaking?

I'm currently building a team for competitive use. I want to use the ingame matchmaking of the Pokémon XY games (Battle Zone). I know Pokémons can be banned for reasons, therefore I didn't build a legendary into my team. But in unranked games (never tried ranked before) I often see them. As it's...
