I love how the close votes are rolling in :-D

... and I get the feeling certain people probably burst an aneurysm when they saw all the "evil" questions :-) Maybe they'll stay in hospital for a long long time - without access to EE.SE

EEvil

Anindo Ghosh

04:27

hiya @rawbrawb

rawbrawb

@AnindoGhosh hey guy...

Anindo Ghosh

@rawbrawb :-)

rawbrawb

@AnindoGhosh So what have you been up to?

Anindo Ghosh

Some prototype demo for a client, one HackerSpace Mumbai meeting that was a hilarious experience, odds and sods.

rawbrawb

Hilarious? in what sense? fun or sublime?

W5VO

04:37

@AnindoGhosh I don't really see that many - sarcasm?

Anindo Ghosh

The HackerSpace meetup is worth sharing about: So I show up there (my first Mumbai HackerSpace) with a backpack full of soldering iron, little breadboards, some MCUs, some other ICs, a few microcontroller dev boards, etc. I notice nobody there is talking hacking in any sense that I know it.

rawbrawb

@AnindoGhosh all SW stuff?

@W5VO That's because I NUKED DAT **it from orbit!

;)

W5VO

@rawbrawb Emphysema

rawbrawb

@W5VO LOL and @AnindoGhosh is a smoker

Anindo Ghosh

@W5VO Yeah, that was irony more than sarcasm: The close-vote-if-tagged-arduino folk will miss many of the questions as they slipped under the radar after the migration. I still expect a few retroactive close-votes from the more persistent folk, and it would be good if you mods could attenuate enthusiasm in that regard.

rawbrawb

04:39

Who doesn't drink

Anindo Ghosh

@rawbrawb I drink - 1.5 Breezers and I'm out for the count.

W5VO

@AnindoGhosh I'd be surprised if there isn't at least one dupe, but other than that nothing really close-worthy

a couple of software only questions got a close vote or two

rawbrawb

AFK BRB

Anindo Ghosh

@rawbrawb Yeah, not even all sw stuff: There were two people talking real estate deals and opportunities, another couple of folks pushing an android app that shows vehicle traffic density info (something Google Maps navigation already does excellently), one person talking about curing cancer (any cancer) through dietary changes, and ... ummm let me think a moment.

rawbrawb

@AnindoGhosh So did you start to "hack" them? plant suggestions in their minds? Bwahahaha

Anindo Ghosh

04:43

Yeah, a couple of folks who were looking for angel funding for yet-another-online-store without even having a business plan.

rawbrawb

@AnindoGhosh surely some of them must have understood the usual meaning?

Anindo Ghosh

@rawbrawb I mentioned electronics, "Huh? People actually make electronics?" - I mentioned software Reverse Engineering, "Huh? Forward engineering is what builds software, right?", I mentioned robotics, "Huh? Oh, you are a Science Fiction guy?", I mentioned photography, "Ohhhh, yeah now I know you, saw you in the papers a few times." I decided to have a diet coke and head back home.

angelatlarge

Hallo

rawbrawb

@AnindoGhosh sigh

Anindo Ghosh

@rawbrawb Nope - It's a social mixer. Nobody there had any context on HackerSpace as we know it.

rawbrawb

04:47

@angelatlarge DUde! shouldn't you mowing your lawn now? upsetting the neighbours ?

angelatlarge

@rawbrawb Mowed down everything and everyone

Anindo Ghosh

@rawbrawb A Grammar Epiphany? "This grammar everyone else follows is just WRONG!"

angelatlarge

@W5VO: What's this all about? Couldn't figure it out: there was no context. chat.stackexchange.com/transcript/message/9156303#9156303

rawbrawb

@AnindoGhosh just piss off ... I'm tired, I'm juggling3 things at a time, I'm on call to Asia ...

Anindo Ghosh

By the way for anyone interested, TI's ControlSUITE just got an update. The new one adds a few bits, and crashes less (none that I saw so far, previous version wasn't like this)

@rawbrawb Oh, ouch. I'll shut up now.

rawbrawb

04:49

@AnindoGhosh ;)

Anindo Ghosh

@angelatlarge That was when dozens of Arduino questions got migrated into EE.SE

angelatlarge

@W5VO Did the ghosts of A, V, and R descend down on your desk while the angelic voices sung soliloquies to your mad engineering skillz

@AnindoGhosh Ah, yeah, I had the same feeling..

Actually the feeling I had was "Shoot, I coulda had five hundred gadjillion rep on EE.SE if I joined the Ardweeno experiment"

Anindo Ghosh

@angelatlarge There was some conversation offline with people I know: "Goodbye, young friend, your life was so brief, but filled us with so much joy! You shall be fondly remembered" and all that.

@angelatlarge Nahh, I was super-active there, yet I got all of 800 rep.

@angelatlarge I usually get that in a week anyway

angelatlarge

@AnindoGhosh You be quiet now

@AnindoGhosh Don't make your sock puppies feel miserable

Anindo Ghosh

@angelatlarge WTF? First @Rawb and now you too?

everybody wants to press the "mute" button on poor old me.

angelatlarge

04:53

@AnindoGhosh Didn't MongoEarth, or what's'is name get like 1500?

rawbrawb

@AnindoGhosh well, first you nitpick and then you brag ... ;)

@angelatlarge candy gram for Mongo!

Anindo Ghosh

@angelatlarge @ManishEarth, and yeah he might have - he had a few more rep than me on that site.

... and there he is :-)

ManishEarth

@AnindoGhosh ha

angelatlarge

@ManishEarth Right on cue

rawbrawb

thats fast response. like a bat signal!

ManishEarth

04:55

Ir was quite entertaining to watch the rep jump up from 113 to 13somethingsomething

angelatlarge

@ManishEarth Yeah, whatever. I don't want to hear about it.

ManishEarth

:P

rawbrawb

@ManishEarth the fact you were so proud of that, sort meant that you could have messed up the site just to get rep. Not saying you did, but just saying .... ;)

Anindo Ghosh

BTW @ManishEarth I have a question about the migration. I had over 1200 rep there, after migrations I got 800 here and 85 on SO, so is there a way of figuring out where the rest went? It wasn't like 20-30 rep, else I would have assumed closed questions or something. Is there a bug somewhere?

ManishEarth

@AnindoGhosh Some questions were not migrated, iirc

angelatlarge

04:57

@rawbrawb If I only knew that it was going to be a failure, but the rep sticks... damn!

ManishEarth

Plus a bunch when to RPi and Robotics

angelatlarge

@ManishEarth Who chose what got saved?

ManishEarth

@angelatlarge we did

angelatlarge

@ManishEarth Oh, you mean everything was migrated, but not everything to EE.SE?

Anindo Ghosh

@ManishEarth Yes, I counted those - Those were also mostly the ones I had not touched anyway. But that doesn't explain over 300 rep.

ManishEarth

04:58

@angelatlarge closed+deleted posts were binned

Anindo Ghosh

@ManishEarth I got zero on both RPi and Robotics, both of which I am a member of.

ManishEarth

Q: Does using more Voids take up more space and take more system resources?

I have a habit of writing code using all voids like below. int led = 13; void setup() { pinMode(led, OUTPUT); } void loop() { ledChange(HIGH); delay(1000); ledChange(LOW); delay(1000); } void ledChange(int pinState) { digitalWrite(led, pinState); } I re...

^70 rep on SO

Anindo Ghosh

@ManishEarth so there's around 320 rep that went POOF, I'd sure like to know where they ended up.

ManishEarth

hmm

Anindo Ghosh

@ManishEarth Yup, total of 85 gained on SO, mentioned above.

That question would not have lasted long enough to write a comment, let alone an accepted answer, had it originally been posted on SO.

ManishEarth

05:01

Plus the 100 association bonus won't transfer

Anindo Ghosh

@ManishEarth Oh wait, 100 of those were association bonus. That leaves 220 unexplained.

@ManishEarth Zinx

angelatlarge

@ManishEarth That's free beer.

Anindo Ghosh

@angelatlarge True

@angelatlarge The last rep I got on SO, I had to actually code something and test it on my android phones, to get it. Either magnetic or acceleration sensor stuff, IIRC.

@ManishEarth If you solve "The mystery of the disappearing rep-points", please do publish, thanks.

ManishEarth

kk :)

rawbrawb

@AnindoGhosh why don't you do your own true hacker space?

user61389

05:13

@jippie I'm afraid you're not going to make me switch to Arduino easily :)

angelatlarge

@AnindoGhosh Were you answering my questions?

@AnindoGhosh So far I have not received very good answers to my Android questions on SO.

@AnindoGhosh Should I send my Android questions your way? They are not free beer, I think.

Damit. PeterJ beat me to the free beer of the witching hour :)

@CamilStaps Hello. Hows the Icepic (ISPIC) coming along?

user61389

@angelatlarge hi! I just woke up, so I can't say I've done anything but dreaming about it

user61389

That's not true by the way, I'm not that geeky

angelatlarge

@AnindoGhosh @ManishEarth Here's some free beer for you guys:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/16215918/arduino-leonardo-or-uno-for-a-pototype-solenoid-project

I know the answer, but I wouldn't be able to write it up in a smart way without some research.

And I am laaaaazy now

ManishEarth

@angelatlarge EE question (needs migration), and I'm laazy as well :P

angelatlarge

05:26

@ManishEarth Did you read it? It's not just free beer, it's beer that practically drinks itself.

@ManishEarth I just don't want to write a one-liner answer. (In most cases) I hate those.

user61389

"It will be nice if I can have some opinion about it." <-- would an answer like.. "your opinion is in the second paragraph" be appreciated? :)

ManishEarth

@CamilStaps yep

@angelatlarge I haven't used a Leonardo, wouldn't know

angelatlarge

@ManishEarth OK, I'll write a crappy answer. rep is rep

ManishEarth

:P

Anindo Ghosh

@angelatlarge I try and stay away from Eclipse after some horrid experiences, so I've been off Android for a year.

rawbrawb

05:30

@angelatlarge man you're into creating non-sequiturs aren't you! "beer that drinks itself"?

angelatlarge

Does anyone know a quick good way of getting a link to a comment? Currently I go to the user's page, look at their activity, and then copy the comment link from there. But that is very roundabout.

@AnindoGhosh It is not an eclipse question.

user61389

@angelatlarge you can use the '3 minutes ago' and copy the URL location from that

ManishEarth

@rawbrawb see the room topic. not a non sequitur :P

@angelatlarge timestamp

@ManishEarth Explain?

rawbrawb

@ManishEarth ? !

user61389

05:31

@angelatlarge the explanation is what I said

ManishEarth

@angelatlarge what Camil said. The thing that said when the comment was posted is a link.

angelatlarge

@CamilStaps Oh, I missed that. Thanks

user61389

@angelatlarge :) it works with almost all timestamps, by the way - except Qs and As, they have a share button

angelatlarge

@ManishEarth @CamilStaps WOW! AWESOME! I AM A NEW MAN! OR A NEW WOMAN! WHATEVER T.F. YOU THINK I AM. WHOOO!

ManishEarth

Golden rule of permanent links on the 'net: If they're not there, click the timestamp

Anindo Ghosh

05:33

@angelatlarge No, I'm not saying it is. I just hate firing up Eclipse, whis is how I used to write code for Android

user61389

@angelatlarge whoo.

Anindo Ghosh

@angelatlarge New sentient?

@CamilStaps Iszi? lol

Guys: Anyone with edit privs may want to try fixing all the links in this list

rawbrawb

crickets ...

@ManishEarth how do you want them fixed?

ManishEarth

@rawbrawb They need to point to EE.SE, not Arduino.SE

the redirects will be there for 6 months, but not longer

rawbrawb

@ManishEarth I notice that a lot of them were yours ... originally ;)

ManishEarth

@rawbrawb ?

Yep

rawbrawb

@ManishEarth so a find and replace should be fine ...

ManishEarth

05:41

@rawbrawb nope

the question id's are different

rawbrawb

@ManishEarth within the question

ManishEarth

?

You need to click the link, copy the new URL, and paste it back

user61389

@ManishEarth and watch out for answers! They're nasty, they aren't rewritten well, so that you get the Q instead of the A.

ManishEarth

@CamilStaps Let's not do any more for now, the main page is flooded

user61389

@ManishEarth okay :(

ManishEarth

05:43

@CamilStaps ?

rawbrawb

@ManishEarth how about the comments? I can't edit those, does it matter?

user61389

@ManishEarth check the first link in here, that's to an answer, but you get the question

ManishEarth

@rawbrawb nope

@CamilStaps ah i see

angelatlarge

Crappy answer posted!

I deserve a beer now

jippie

good morning

user61389

05:48

Morning

jippie

any crappy answers to downvote this morning?

angelatlarge

@jippie. Good morning, nice to see you. Your beloved EE.SE is All Arduino-ed up. It's your dream world

@jippie See my comment immediately above this one

jippie

haven't been really active for at least 36hrs.

user61389

@jippie is a Q okay too? electronics.stackexchange.com/q/67232/17592

angelatlarge

@jippie You missed the Arduinocalypse

jippie

05:50

?

angelatlarge

@CamilStaps You are going to get your damn badge tomorrow, aren't you?

user61389

@angelatlarge :D

angelatlarge

@CamilStaps Though it looks like you are competing with @rawbrawb...

And guys, take it easy: you don't want to push every arduino answer to the top of the stack.

Do it a few/day, OK?

user61389

@angelatlarge almost done

rawbrawb

@ManishEarth I've been going at the list from the bottom , just needs approval

jippie

05:53

@angelatlarge yeah we'll loose an editor then, because he has the badge.

angelatlarge

@jippie What is the question?

jippie

what arduinocalypse?

angelatlarge

@jippie Isn't there a better badge after that?

jippie

89 questions with new activity :|

angelatlarge

@jippie Yeah, that one

ManishEarth

05:53

@rawbrawb don't flood the main page

angelatlarge

@ManishEarth ...or Olin will get mad

jippie

@ManishEarth is that the main chat page?

ManishEarth

@jippie main page

user61389

All done now, I believe.

ManishEarth

people are fixing the Arduino.SE cross links to EE.SE links

user61389

05:55

We should have an option "don't bump this" when editing... useful for bulk cleanup

ManishEarth

@CamilStaps proposed a million times, and declined

angelatlarge

@CamilStaps Maaan, you did flood the main page

user61389

@ManishEarth why?

angelatlarge

@CamilStaps DAMN!

ManishEarth

all edits should be visible

Even SE employees can't do it

user61389

05:55

@ManishEarth again: why?

rawbrawb

@ManishEarth I still see two hanging on that search page ... but that is it.

ManishEarth

there were only one or two specific situations in the past where an SE CHAOS employee got no-bump powers

@CamilStaps very prone to abuse

angelatlarge

@CamilStaps Maybe so that you can't sneak anything evil in?

ManishEarth

Silently editing stuff, noone will notice

angelatlarge

@CamilStaps Yeah, what @ManishEarth said

user61389

05:57

Yeah I see, but it could be a high-rep privilege? Why can't even the mods do it?

ManishEarth

@CamilStaps dunno about why the mods can't do it

angelatlarge

@CamilStaps People do go nuts...

@CamilStaps We know of at least one example

ManishEarth

spend some time on SO, and you'll realize why giving moar powaz to high reps may not be good

rawbrawb

@angelatlarge LOL

user61389

@ManishEarth I see, too bad

user61389

05:58

Thanks for the explanation anyway

rawbrawb

@ManishEarth Oooooh I THINK we understand THAT!

ManishEarth

A meta search should give you the official explanation

angelatlarge

@CamilStaps: BTW, you remember that post you edited to remove a comma that should have been there anyway in order to remove our downvote?

user61389

@angelatlarge I do. (I still feel good about it)

angelatlarge

@CamilStaps :) Maybe you want to roll back your edit? (Not that it really matters, but for the next time you do something like that)

@CamilStaps Or did you edit it again to put that comma back?

user61389

06:00

@angelatlarge why? It was better this way, and rollbacks flood the main page as well, I believe?

angelatlarge

@CamilStaps You actually didn't like that comma? Yeah, too late to think about flooding now, isn't it?

user61389

@angelatlarge let me look it up, I believe that comma was better removed/added, whatever I did

angelatlarge

Holy smokes! I just got a gold badge on SO. For what?

stackoverflow.com/badges/226/unsung-hero?userid=2149548

user61389

@angelatlarge nice, that's the big brother of that other one we talked about

angelatlarge

@CamilStaps Don't worry about it. I was mainly giving you crap for padding your editing totals by killing perfectly good commas

ManishEarth

06:02

@angelatlarge it means you suck :P

(I may get it soon as well)

angelatlarge

@CamilStaps I think that's what you get for answering newb questions about Arduino

@ManishEarth Yeah, that's what I think too

That gold circle looks so shiny and pretty

jippie

@angelatlarge nitwits accepting a crap answer that wasn't even upvoted.

abdullah kahraman

Morning!

user61389

@angelatlarge electronics.stackexchange.com/posts/66802/revisions I believe the comma is better there, but anyway, you won't lose an edit when you roll it back, I think

angelatlarge

@jippie That's because they are rep 1 users that cannot upvote

user61389

06:03

@abdullahkahraman hi there

PeterJ

Hi all!

angelatlarge

@PeterJ Hello

@abdullahkahraman Hello

ManishEarth

@angelatlarge that was my first gold badge on Phys. I used to write answers to questions by new users (can't upvote) in topics that most folks didn't frequent

jippie

morning new comers

angelatlarge

@ManishEarth Like "what's a serial port?" and "if I connect my Arduino to a serial port emulator on a VT-100 using three hairpins why does it use the wrong baud rate?"

ManishEarth

06:05

lol

user61389

@PeterJ hey

rawbrawb

@abdullahkahraman good morning!

@PeterJ greets

Passerby

@rawbrawb mind going back to all your edits and fixing the broken links you created?

abdullah kahraman

@rawbrawb Wow, you are up!

user61389

Anyway, @angelatlarge, I have to get that badge before you hit 2K. Otherwise, I'm afraid you'll steal all those editable posts!

abdullah kahraman

06:06

@PeterJ Hi

rawbrawb

@Passerby ? let me go look.

PeterJ

Hi all, looks like I missed some Arduino movement action after I left yesterday

angelatlarge

@CamilStaps Right now I feel like the only thing I want to to bypass the damn review queue, but things like that do change.

Passerby

""electronics.cc"" is not a valid domain

angelatlarge

@CamilStaps If I edited something to add/remove comma I don't think that would get approved now.

user61389

06:08

@angelatlarge you won't get it in the review queue, you'd have to edit more than 5 chars :)

jippie

@CamilStaps /me is no longer the worst rep/badge whore on EE. Not even close.

angelatlarge

@CamilStaps True 'dat

user61389

@jippie haha :) (there should be a badge for that!!)

angelatlarge

@jippie Maybe the new generation is just more vocal/honest about it?

Passerby

Doesn't the FAQ say to not edit posts for simple typos or missing puncuation?

jippie

06:11

@angelatlarge maybe I have of a more social life than @CamilStaps after all.

rawbrawb

@Passerby thanks, I found that one. Did it happen else were? We were migrating the arduino stuff and I slipped up. can only find the one though. are there others?

angelatlarge

@jippie You do have cats. @CamilStaps has PICs. cats>PICs (animate>inanimate) on the social life scale.

rawbrawb

@abdullahkahraman yep.

@abdullahkahraman but @angelatlarge is 3 hours ahead of me!

abdullah kahraman

@CamilStaps Wow, so after you are 2k or more, you get to see the review queue?

Passerby

@rawbrawb I saw three, fixed two. But I only checked 5 posts before realizing why they were all updated

angelatlarge

06:13

@rawbrawb Yeah, I gotta head to bed soon...

user61389

I disagree. PICs almost equal girlfriends on the social life scale.

rawbrawb

@Passerby thanks!

jippie

@CamilStaps I really think you believe so.

user61389

@abdullahkahraman yes, you can review edits with 2k, what do you mean?

abdullah kahraman

@CamilStaps You know what I mean..

user61389

06:14

I really don't, never mind :P

rawbrawb

@angelatlarge don't forget the mower ..... ;)

abdullah kahraman

I was 1953, then had to downvote, now I am 1952.. The power is in your mice's left buttons..

angelatlarge

@rawbrawb You want me to mow again?

user61389

@jippie let me rectify that then ;) it isn't that bad (yet)

rawbrawb

@angelatlarge hey, there has to be a theme, doesn't there?

angelatlarge

06:17

@rawbrawb Are you trying to make this into EE meme? You want me to become the lawnmower man?

abdullah kahraman

@angelatlarge He already made me "Swifty".. Just because I've listened one track of her..

user61389

And I'm the grandpa, apparently

rawbrawb

tee hee ...

@abdullahkahraman you were raving ...

;)

abdullah kahraman

@rawbrawb oh, come on! haha!

rawbrawb

@abdullahkahraman although to be perfectly truthful I don't think I've ever heard her so I don't know what her music is like.

abdullah kahraman

06:22

@rawbrawb I cannot argue that she is great..

rawbrawb

@abdullahkahraman so how is the rep now?

abdullah kahraman

@rawbrawb Great, thanks!

Wow!

rawbrawb

@abdullahkahraman don't know what you mean...

abdullah kahraman

lol

Hey, what's wrong with all these Arduino stuff!

user61389

The arduino part of course

abdullah kahraman

06:26

I have Arduino tag "ignored" and my screen is all grayed lol

@CamilStaps Is the site closed?

user61389

hehe me too :) yep

abdullah kahraman

It was a little obvious, wasn't it?

user61389

I was never pro that site.

PeterJ

@CamilStaps, there's a new doorbell question for to answer ;-)

angelatlarge

@PeterJ More free beer

@PeterJ Actually, maybe not. Could be a quagmire

PeterJ

06:33

@angelatlarge, go for it, decoding an unknown wireless signal could be tricky lol

angelatlarge

@PeterJ Well, its standard (whatever that means), duh! :)

@PeterJ I think the answer is: "why do you need an Arduino at all?"

rawbrawb

gonna run guys ... cheers

user61389

@rawbrawb Bye grandson!

angelatlarge

@PeterJ ...do you need to also turn on a LED 5 minutes later? If not, just use a voice recorder chip. Since the wireless comms for your doorbell are standard, then the voice recorder chip should have that implemented already :)

@rawbrawb bye

user61389

@angelatlarge that's the answer to every arduino question

angelatlarge

06:35

@CamilStaps touche

abdullah kahraman

@rawbrawb bye!

@PeterJ lol

PeterJ

@angelatlarge, yeah that's probably not a bad way. I wonder if wireless doorbells really are standard? The idea they are gives me evil ideas.

abdullah kahraman

When you review, do you get any reps?

PeterJ

@abdullahkahraman, no

angelatlarge

@abdullahkahraman 20 reps of 5 lbs each :)

abdullah kahraman

06:40

@PeterJ Hmm, bummer..

angelatlarge

@abdullahkahraman But no queue! You can edit whatever, willy-nilly!

user61389

@angelatlarge and you won't get your 2 rep anymore, but that's what they don't say

angelatlarge

@CamilStaps Shiny badges not good enough?

abdullah kahraman

@angelatlarge They are not very shiny for me..

angelatlarge

@abdullahkahraman They'll seem more shiny after 2k?

user61389

06:43

@angelatlarge they're fine, but rep as well would've been better :P

abdullah kahraman

@angelatlarge lol, they have to :)

jippie

@abdullahkahraman you should make more answers like the ~~top~~ envelope detector ;o)

angelatlarge

@jippie ???

jippie

@angelatlarge ¿¿¿

abdullah kahraman

@jippie ah, ain't nobody have time for that..

angelatlarge

06:45

That doorbell question reminds me of the @David Kessner's sour cream analogy

@jippie What envelope detector

user61389

@angelatlarge you don't know the famous envelope detector answer?

angelatlarge

@CamilStaps No

@CamilStaps Should I?

user61389

@angelatlarge don't know, me doesn't know it either
