Good. I guess maybe we should add some delay before sending the message, to help prevent that.

ManishEarth

@JeremyBanksΨ That shouldn't happen

hm

Once you join a room, the watcher will fetch all messages posted till then

And joining a room is sync

Is it possible that it's doing something like looking for messages > timestamp, and this message happened to be = timestamp?

though wathing is async

@ManishEarth If self.rooms[roomid]["eventtime"] is an integer, it's possible that we could get that time from the server, then send our message so quickly that it gets the same integer timestamp. If we are asking the servers for all message after that time, our message could be missed.

Anonymous

If this were the case, a hacky workaround would just be to ask for messages from self.rooms[roomid]["eventtime"] - 1.

Contributing to Firefox would be a good way for me to stay FOSS-clean, as long as there aren't any potential legal conflicts resulting from me talking to the Chrome team. (I'm actually headed to Google when-and-if the US government approves my visa.)

(job - provided I get that visa!) Thanks. :) I think I credit Stack Overflow for getting me on their radar, but sadly the recruiter who got me started left the company before I had a chance to get him to confirm.

ManishEarth

@JeremyBanksΨ Almost all of Firefox's discussions are public (you can even join the meetings remotely). So it's not a big issue if you talk to the Chrome team. But of course they might have secrets they don't want you to divulge.

@ManishEarth On the subject of FOSS, it might be helpful to dumb people like me to add a mention of the GPL license to the README. I'm assumed MIT when I started using it as part of a project marked as MIT.

After looking through Python3's idlelib files I came across this regular expression: r"([^.'\"\\#]\b|^)" + "string" + r"\b" This basically ensures that (compiled with flag re.S) the match to "string" is not inside quotes and is not after a #. Could anyone explain why it is able to skip it...
