01:30.32jjt009f00f-: you got server hits?
01:32.00f00f-jjt009: nope, but according to dan the app has been scored.
01:32.35f00f-i might have a clue as to why i have no hits... it could be a firewall misconfiguration, but i won't speculate.
01:32.55Dougie187just think, you will know if you win on monday
01:32.56Dougie187lol
01:33.00Dougie187too many people are freaking paranoid.
01:33.07f00f-exactly... lol
01:33.33Dougie187noone knows if they are revaluating the apps or not.
01:34.41KralnI should check my logs.
01:34.43jjt009exactly my question
01:34.51jjt009jasta would know
01:34.55jjt009his server is working

01:35.30Kralnnothing since the 27th.
01:35.30Dougie187Jasta doesnt know.
01:35.30Dougie187jasta is just paranoid.
01:35.30Dougie187afaik he hasnt gotten any hits.
01:35.31Dougie187lol
01:35.43KralnI got hit at least twice, on the 25th and the 27th

01:38.00Dougie187lol
01:38.01jjt009i tried that and i didn't get any response
01:38.01Dougie187hes in here.

03:14.29dmoffettI am pretty sure Apple never intended to release the sdk.
03:14.52dmoffettAnother problem with Apple/NeXT was there was always some good stuff hidden.
03:15.26dmoffettThere is no map api right now for Apple either.
03:15.41dmoffettthat would whack a hold genre of cools apps.
03:15.58Kralnwell
03:16.00Kralnmost of it is like
03:16.10Kraln"If you've written stuff for leopard, this will make a lot of sense!"
03:16.22Kralnand I'm like, buhhh
03:16.28dmoffettIB is very cool btw.
03:16.34dmoffettInterface Builder.
03:16.38dmoffettAndroid needs one.
03:17.39Kralnyeah, that part is cool
03:17.43Kralnbut I have no idea how to make use of it
03:18.34jjt009hmph
03:18.47jjt009Kraln: still haven't reinstalled the sdk?
03:19.54Kralnjjt009: nop :-D
03:20.02KralnI grabbed the iphone one though
03:27.42dmoffettIB builder is used to create the interface which is stored in a file which you can load when needed.
03:28.12dmoffettinterface == window, button, text fields etc.

03:32.17dmoffettBecause Objective C has runtime binding you can connect gui elements to methods (actions) and instance variable called outlets. using IB.  When the nib file is loaded all the elements are hooked up and you are ready to handle events.
03:33.19dmoffettThe funny thing is this tech has been around since the late 80s and still has not really been exceeded for ease of building a gui.
03:33.38dmoffettHail NeXTStep.  :-)

04:32.13muthusurprising not many people have heard about rule engines..
04:33.04f00f-no
04:33.05f00f-explain

04:33.26skicsonbusiness rools
04:33.28KralnI know what a rule engine is
04:33.32skicsonhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drools
04:33.36Kralnbut apart from that, no idea
04:33.37muthuright
04:33.41muthuso anything in PHP
04:33.43muthu?
04:34.01dueymuthu: do you know what they are used for??
04:34.16dueybecause they might not be very useful to you if you knew
04:34.18muthuyou can use it for various things
04:34.26muthuduey: why?
04:34.26dueyi know what they are, i have written many
04:34.35dueywhat are you trying to do?
04:34.43dueyhave you got an example dataset?
04:34.55muthui'm writing a shopping cart
04:35.12dueyok..
04:35.35muthuso as the user makes purchase, we recommend stuff
04:35.40muthuhow's that for an usecase?
04:35.49dueylol
04:35.53muthuhaha
04:36.01muthuduey: any php rule engine?
04:36.07dueyit doesnt work like that..
04:36.20muthuduey: but tell me is there anything in php?
04:36.39skicsonhttp://php.resourceindex.com/Complete_Scripts/Shopping_Carts/
04:36.41dueyare you doing product recommendations?
04:36.45muthuright
04:37.00muthui'm sure google uses them
04:37.06muthuprobably they are using drools
04:37.21muthuskicson: thx
04:37.27muthubut i'm looking for a rule engine
04:39.24dueyare you looking for product recommendations?
04:39.28dueyor just business logic
04:39.33muthubusiness logic
04:39.37dueyoh ok
04:39.47muthuduey: there are rule engine written for this purpose
04:40.01muthuas i said, they are available for java, ruby etc.,
04:40.01dueyim thinking machine learning..
04:40.05muthubut not able to find for PHP
04:40.16f00f-lol, you're writing your own shopping cart?
04:40.27f00f-they are so 2002 :X
04:40.34f00f-you should be able to find a good quality one out there
04:40.46muthuf00f-: i'm looking for a php rule engine
04:41.01f00f-why not write one?
04:41.10dueyf00f-: why would you want to use someone elses shopping cart?
04:41.32dueya) they are simple
04:41.34f00f-duey: proven & reliable, why write code again if it's trivial?
04:41.47f00f-provided you can legally do that
04:41.53dueybecause it doesnt provide a fluid user experience
04:42.09muthuPHP_Jedi: hi
04:42.11f00f-well i'm talking about a cart that integrates nicely
04:42.17dueyif you layouts changing from page to page because your taking other systems and plugging them together
04:42.25dueyits bad
04:42.25*** part/#android skicson (n=Mike_Mac@pool-96-234-164-211.bltmmd.fios.verizon.net)
04:42.29f00f-i'm talking about a backend more than a frontend =)
04:42.47dueyits all dependent on what your doing
04:42.49muthui'm surprise ruby is so ahead of the curve
04:42.54dueyruby is awful
04:43.02muthuthey have a rule engine!
04:43.10dueymuthu: what are rule engines used for?
04:43.22muthuduey: heh
04:43.33muthuyou thought the product recommendation is a joke?
04:43.40muthuthat's a perfect use case duey
04:43.59dueyi dont think so
04:44.08muthuyeah right
04:44.16dueybecause you want product recommendation to evolve and change
04:44.22muthucorrect
04:44.27muthuthat's my point
04:44.29dueyand you want to apply machine learning heuristics to it
04:44.46muthuright
04:44.48dueywhich is a different problem..
04:45.12muthuduey: if you recommend me a php rule engine, i'll listen to every word you say
04:45.23muthunow tell me, do you know of any php rule engine?
04:45.25dueyno
04:45.32muthuha, finally
04:45.45muthua straight answer for a straight question!!
04:45.55dueymy approach to product recommendation is different
04:46.08muthuwhat would be yours?
04:46.39dueyyou would create a network neighbor hood of some sort of product->order->customer relationships and then apply some form of ml algo with hueristic funcitons to determine if a customer will or will not like the suggested product
04:47.08muthuyeah thats what rule engines are for
04:47.12dueyuh
04:47.44muthuduey: your app
04:47.59muthucan i shoot at a random sign, and get it translated?
04:48.06dueynot yet
04:48.10dueybut yeah thats the idea
04:48.18muthuthat would be so useful
04:48.22dueyyep
04:48.31muthugreat idea.. a sure winner
04:48.39muthuare you confident?
04:48.43dueyno
04:48.48dueyi sent int a proof of concept
04:48.53dueynothing thancy
04:49.00muthugood idea
04:49.45muthuhey gooooglers, any suggestion for php rule engine?
04:51.56muthuany other google channel?
04:52.06muthui know only of #google
04:52.14f00f-#gewgle
04:52.22muthulet me try
04:52.55muthudmoffett is there
04:52.58muthuand then me
04:53.19dmoffettSorry I thought that was a hyper link.
04:54.00muthuhaha
04:54.24dmoffettDon't spend a lot of time using irc.
04:54.57muthuwhy?
04:55.31dmoffettGuess it just not thought about it much.
04:55.50dmoffettFun though.
04:56.09muthuif you have work to do, you are better off staying away
04:56.13muthuits like twitter
04:56.14dueyriveting.
04:56.22muthuanyone using twitter?
04:56.45dmoffettnot much
04:56.52dueynever used it
04:57.02muthuyou can spend a lot of time doing twitter
04:57.20muthuyou can follow and follow and follow...
04:57.23dueylooked really stupid
04:57.29dmoffettnot big on facebook either.
04:57.51muthutwitter is used in smart ways by smart folks
04:57.52dmoffettthere is real power in twitter, in that a group mentality gets going.
04:58.11muthutools are available, how we use them is upto you
04:58.15dueyi have a facebook account never use it though
04:58.27dmoffettthink about a large group of people thinking the same thing at the same time.
04:58.39dmoffettHigh tech riot kind of thing.

04:59.30dmoffettI was thinking about a location based twitter idea that would help find abducted children.
04:59.45dmoffettApparently the first three hours is key.
04:59.46muthulocation based twitter is a great idea
04:59.55muthuand lot of them are doing it
05:00.11muthudmoffett: that would be a wonderful utility
05:00.32dmoffettAs soon as a child goes missing alert all the poeple in the area to be on thier toes.
05:00.53dmoffettGet the kid back soon.
05:01.00muthuexactly.. and since its in your mobile.. the chances are high
05:01.08muthui was thinking about the same thing
05:01.18dmoffettLooked into Amber alerts and it is pathetic that most states still don't have it in place.
05:01.48muthudmoffett: you can use it not just for missing kids, but almost anything
05:01.59muthuyou raise an alert, and people can react to them
05:01.59dmoffettright.
05:02.12muthuare you working on something like that?
05:02.20dmoffettin my own time.
05:02.31muthuthat would be widely adopted
05:03.20dmoffettWell hopefully if I don't get it done someone will.
05:03.27muthusure thing
05:03.49muthuactually twitter can be used right away
05:04.06dmoffettthere is probably something similar already I suspect.
05:04.15muthuits twitter
05:04.18muthuthink about it
05:04.26muthuwhat's stopping twitter from being used in such a way
05:04.39dmoffettTwitter is mostly about following people.
05:04.58muthuright.. and twitter bot can do these alerts
05:05.03muthuso it gets to everyone
05:05.15dmoffettI was thinking of turning it about 20 degrees and following and event.
05:05.25dmoffettso you follow amber allerts.
05:05.46dmoffettif one goes off in your area then you get an message.
05:05.53muthuright, it can be focused to an area
05:06.02muthuso only people in that location is alerted

05:06.31dmoffettseems to make sense.
05:07.25dmoffettTwitter would work of course but it is not an exact fit.
05:07.42dmoffettand twitter is down quite a bit.
05:08.11dmoffettA good location based twitter on GAE would rock.
05:08.39muthuyeah
05:08.54muthuGAE or whatever on backend
05:09.01muthubut the idea is cool
05:09.36dmoffettApparently the guys at Twitter are having all kinds of scaling issues.
05:09.43dmoffettROR implementation.
05:09.46muthuyeah big time
05:09.55muthueveryone knows it
05:09.57dmoffettRails is slow.
05:10.15muthuthe twitter folks raised it very early
05:10.27muthuand am surprised they continued with the same thing
05:10.42muthuthey must have switched on to JAVA or something
05:10.58dmoffettSome of them claimed it was not Rails but their design.
05:11.12muthuthe rails crowd doesn't listen
05:11.21muthuthey beat you on not creating the perfect code
05:11.28dmoffettThat is a broad generalization.
05:11.36dmoffettI am a Rail developer.  :-)
05:11.44muthuthen you must know
05:12.03muthuhope you are not DHH ;)

05:14.08dmoffettI don't think so.
05:14.25dmoffettwouldn't you say twitter is growing.
05:14.30muthuthe twitter folks themselves said rails doesn't scale
05:14.32dmoffettHow they make money is a good question.
05:14.56dmoffettI would like to see that.
05:15.11dmoffettWe are thinking of switching to merb.
05:15.18muthureally? why?
05:15.48dmoffettWe like Ruby and merb is much faster.
05:15.58muthuok
05:15.59dmoffettRuby will get faster as well.
05:16.35dmoffettLooking a GAE as well.
05:16.46muthuGAE is python atm
05:17.05dmoffettUsed python prior to Ruby.
05:17.13dmoffettPython is good as well.
05:17.28muthuright
05:17.37muthuthere are a lot of good languages
05:17.46muthuchoice is good
05:17.51dmoffettimo 6 of one and a half dozen of the other.
05:18.25dmoffettThe days of programming in one language all day is probably gone to the few.
05:18.38muthucorrect.. it would be mashups
05:19.09dmoffettMore fun to be had by all.
05:19.59muthudmoffett: you submitted the player for vizzvox right
05:20.13dmoffettyes
05:20.41muthuoh yeah remembered
05:22.57dmoffettWe are putting it up on a page now so that others can use the VizzVox player for help in their apps.

05:23.17dmoffettWe used the player in the submssion to explain our application.
05:23.38muthuthat would be cool
05:23.48muthuevery app requires help screen
05:23.55muthuand if we can plugin vizzvox, great
05:24.07dmoffettOthers maybe able to use the player to explain how to use the application.
05:24.15muthucorrect
05:24.33muthuthat would be a great tool
05:25.05dmoffettHopefully I can put it up once my boss has approved the language.
05:25.39muthulet me know
05:25.40muthui
05:25.48muthui'll use that for my help
05:29.25dmoffettCool

05:33.26f00f-have you tried jaiku?
05:33.39dmoffettI don't use any of them.
05:33.44f00f-you could say it's twitter 1.5 or 2.0
05:33.47dmoffettI have played with them but not much.
05:33.56dmoffettMostly hear about them on twit

05:34.45dmoffettDon't ask me that.
05:34.49muthuhaha
05:34.59muthuthat really freked me out
05:35.05dmoffettto bad.
05:35.09dmoffettfor us I guess.
05:35.16dmoffettI would not think it was that bad.
05:35.23muthunot bad
05:35.33muthutaking you for a ride, that's all ;)
05:35.41dmoffettBetter than me doing it.
05:35.53muthubut it needs some volume control
05:35.58dmoffettIt would sound like Larry the Cable guy.  :-)
05:36.02muthusuddenly the female voice is so high
05:36.29muthuis that your boss voice?
05:37.00dmoffettyeah she is one of the professional voice over people.   I am just a programmer.  This is certainly the wrong crowd for that kind of app.
05:37.10dmoffettThe male voice is.
05:37.18muthuok
05:37.20dmoffettThe female is Austrailain.
05:37.27muthucool

05:54.53jastafor dinner, i had a vegetable stir fry with jasmine rice.  if that's what you mean.
05:55.28muthuyou made it?
05:55.35jastamy gf did
05:55.41muthucool
05:57.07jastamy favorite meal, if you're curious, is broiled lemon peppered salmon with mashed potatoes and garlic green beans.

05:57.56jastano
05:58.06muthuok
05:58.22muthuguess there must be something wrong with this combo
05:58.26muthuphp + rule engine
06:02.03dueylol
06:02.09dueyi think you need to do some research..
06:02.40muthuduey: yes
06:02.49dueyare you sure you dont want http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collaborative_filtering
06:02.49muthuwe can always use drools
06:03.35muthuthat's for rating
06:04.03dueyonly the slope one algo is for rating
06:04.10dueyim more talking about the idea
06:04.35muthuright.. almost every ecommerce site uses them
06:04.39dueyyou want to recommend products based on other customers purchases and other purchases made by the customer right?
06:05.12muthuyeah thats one of the use case
06:05.55dueyi dont think "rule engines" as you refer to them are related
06:06.27muthurule engines are for abstracting business logic away from code
06:06.34dueyyes but recommendations are not business logic
06:06.41muthua lot of bpm systems use rule engine
06:07.03muthuduey: i'm not saying recommendations are a compelling use case for rule engine
06:07.10dueyright
06:07.31muthuits just that you can use rule engines in different ways
06:07.58muthuthere's one more thing i'm interested
06:09.30muthuduey: thanks for the CF link

16:59.35jastayou know, there is the ADC II as well
16:59.45jastayou can just happily keep developing your app and resubmit.
17:01.42muthuright
17:02.16jastaand if your app isn't a trivial piece of crap, you stand a much better shot in the second challenge
17:02.24muthuhaha
17:02.25jasta(thought most of them were)

17:12.09jastanothing's final, but it's been confirmed several times that they are on track
17:12.21muthunow i'm feeling it might be delayed
17:12.56michaelnovakjr_2i am all confused about the adc and rumors.... so i think i am going to try to turn my ears off
17:13.28muthuturn volume down
17:13.45muthui'm using 5.. so its auto off ;)
17:14.28michaelnovakjr_2anyone get hit since tuesday?
17:14.50muthui've seen only one report in the forum
17:15.20michaelnovakjr_2interesting
17:16.08michaelnovakjr_2my take on this is that the top 100 aren't tested anymore and the judges decide based on notes from using the app before. If you are tested this week maybe its due to the 'tie' they mention could have happened
17:16.27muthui have a clear idea now
17:16.34muthuon what exactly happened
17:16.34jastalet's just stop talking about it
17:16.40michaelnovakjr_2haha
17:16.51jastareally, let's just stop

17:26.56muthuits a nice tool if you can use it
17:27.05muthui'm such a poor designer anyways
17:27.07jastai used to drive on the rebuilt version of that bridge every day back when it was released.
17:27.18michaelnovakjr_2nice :)
17:27.23jastai mean, back when gimp 1.5.x was released hehe
17:27.50Dougie187do a lot of people here like centos?

17:43.28Dougie187i played the 10 day free trial.
17:43.35Dougie187i got bored after 10 days
17:43.39Dougie187actually like 6 days
17:43.47michaelnovakjr_2i played it for about a month
17:43.56jastai never once even sat at the controls.  i have seen it played a handful of times, and was unimpressed.
17:44.10jastabut my roommate *STILL* plays it.  i can't believe it.  it ruined his life.
17:44.27michaelnovakjr_2it was cool, just having to sit at my desk instead of my couch was the deciding factor
17:44.28jastawell, his life sucked before i guess.
17:44.32michaelnovakjr_2haha
17:44.53Dougie187lol
17:45.22michaelnovakjr_2and plus they don't make it for linux so, not happening
17:45.49Dougie187it runs in wine though
17:45.57michaelnovakjr_2any good?
17:46.09Dougie187i guess.
17:46.12Dougie187never tried it
17:49.28jastaI wish vmware would run my host browser when i click on links.
17:50.17Dougie187lol
17:51.20jastai know it seems obvious, but only just recently did it occur to me that if i buy a second hard drive specifically for vmware, it will run faster
17:51.25jastanow i use it a lot more :)
17:52.02michaelnovakjr_2:)
17:53.43Dougie187is vmware better than virtualbox?

17:54.50Dougie187virtualbox is free

18:23.29muthui can understand
18:23.32muthuwe all in same boat
18:23.33keashFi wonder: how do you know that phase 1 of judging is over
18:23.46michaelnovakjr_2because he is a judge that is not talking

18:24.40Dougie187i think that sounds like a good idea.
18:24.41michaelnovakjr_2agreed

18:24.53Dougie187or mario kart?
18:24.54michaelnovakjr_2because no one actually knows
18:25.36keashFif no one knows then why is it posted everywhere
18:25.50michaelnovakjr_2www.androidjudges.com has phone numbers and addresses of all the judges
18:25.56michaelnovakjr_2keashF: its all rumors
18:26.24Dougie187try it on the forums
18:26.29Dougie187maybe they can answer your questions
18:26.29keashFthought as much.
18:26.29michaelnovakjr_2kinda like back in HS when someone would say you had a bad case of ____ (fill in the blank) and no one dated you
18:26.51michaelnovakjr_2no one knows except google, and they are tight lipped
18:26.58michaelnovakjr_2until monday of course :)
18:27.06michaelnovakjr_2so grab a beer and play some CoD!
18:27.33keashFyeah, but why why why do you, Muthu, keep posting that judging has progressed to the final 100, if you don't know that?
18:27.46Dougie187it doesnt matter
18:27.48keashFbtw. i liked that article on helloandroid

20:05.49AstainHellbringshould be possible for about any arm platform

20:29.14davidweheh, the first time I lived in Italy, I lived above what I think was the worst pizza shop in Italy
20:29.20davidwwhich is a real accomplishment
20:29.36davidwit's hard to find a pizza place in Italy that sucks
20:30.22jastaThai food is like that here in Seattle :)
20:30.38jastayou can usually pick entirely at random and get a good meal.
20:30.53jastaIndian food as well.  It's great :)
20:32.56davidwI think the NW has pretty good food compared to a lot of places in the US
20:33.44jastaYes, I'd agree.
20:34.02jastaExcept Chinese.  Lord it's bad here :)
20:35.14dmoffettLiving in Western Colorado makes going anywhere else a culinary treat.
20:37.22davidwmust be high and cold there
20:37.36davidwI so want to put together the Perfect Place
20:37.49jastathe perfect place?
20:37.52davidwyeah
20:37.58davidwtake bits and pieces from everywhere
20:37.59jastai demand that you explain
20:38.10davidwfor instance, the weather would come from California
20:38.19davidwthe cities would be Italian
20:38.30davidwor city, don't need more than one
20:38.38jastathat seems like it would only satisfy your interests
20:39.05jastaalso, you could move to little italy in california ;)
20:39.08davidwbusiness/rules/etc... Oregon, maybe
20:39.11jastain san francisco, i mean
20:39.15davidwthat's a joke
20:39.27jastaso is what you're saying
20:39.59jastapretty much the only reason i don't live in california right now is because i can't stand the weather.
20:40.42davidw...
20:40.46dmoffettBeautiful women would be at the top of my list.  I could live in a shit hole if the women are hot.
20:40.48jastacalifornia has nice weather in the spring and fall.  it has miserably hot weather in the summer.  it's unbearable.
20:41.04davidwyou could always stand under a cold shower in a parka if you miss the NW weather
20:41.07jastait gets to 100 degrees there!
20:41.17f00f-jasta: perhaps in southern california :)
20:41.22davidw100F and dry isn't bad
20:41.35davidwbut in the bay area it never gets that hot, unless you head out way east
20:41.55davidwtry 100 and super humid... you wouldn't like northern italy in the summer
20:42.05f00f-it can hit 100F for 1-2 weeks tops in southern bay area, but that's it
20:42.11jastabtw, i went hiking in the olympics last weekend.
20:42.14jastait was like 75.
20:42.17jastaso shove it :)
20:42.58jastaalso, i like winter sports, of which there are a scarce few there.  you have to drive 4+ hours from the bay area to tahoe, and that's all you get.
20:43.13davidwI bet the news reports lead with "strange yellow disc appears in the sky" too
20:43.18dmoffettTahoe rocks for skiing
20:43.22f00f-true
20:43.39jastayes, tahoe is awesome.  but 4 hours?  come on.
20:43.39dmoffettbet they got buttloads of snow this winter.
20:43.58jastaif i drive 5 hours, i get whistler, which is better anyway.  and i get 4 other places on the way!
20:44.05jastadmoffett: Yeah, I was there.
20:44.24davidwcould walk to a ski area... if he gave a (**&^^ about skiiing
20:44.26dmoffettWe got a buttload here.
20:44.34dmoffettcrazy snow this year.
20:44.51jastathe pacific northwest is one of the best, though not popular, ski areas in the US.
20:45.08dmoffettBC rocks as well.
20:45.11jastait's consistently good every year, lots of choice for terrain and area
20:45.23jastawhistler and mt hood are both very close, too
20:45.23dmoffettbut I did get rained on while skiing there.
20:45.49jastaStevens Pass is my favorite, and it's still under $50 a ticket.
20:46.02dmoffettUtah is probably the best if you can stand 3% beer.
20:46.18jastalol, what?  3% beer?
20:46.28jastai've never been to utah, is that really all they serve?
20:46.31dmoffettMormans.
20:46.41dmoffettyep
20:46.43jastayeah, but surely they must have other beers?
20:47.31dmoffettVery nice people but they don't like you drinking, I guess.
20:47.49dmoffettEven in Colorado the Grocery stores sell 3%.
20:48.10davidwthe US is pretty screwed up in terms of its relationship with alcohol
20:48.19dmoffettYou have to go to a liquor store to get regulare beer.
20:48.37f00f-regular?
20:48.39f00f-not really
20:48.49f00f-you can get most average/regular beers at grocery stores
20:48.51dmoffett3% just makes you drink more imo.
20:49.32dmoffettGrocery stores only sell 3% beer in Colorado.
20:49.33jastadmoffett: each state has different liquor control.
20:49.46jastaerr davidw
20:49.50dmoffettYeah just the make things simple.
20:50.11davidwin Italy anyone can buy anything
20:50.23davidwin whatever store
20:50.34davidwthey probably wouldn't serve to a really young looking kid
20:50.57davidwbut said kid could go buy whatever in the supermarket
20:50.58dmoffettimo we are very backwards when it comes to sin business.  Hence Las Vegas is able to exist.
20:54.39jastai actually thought about something the other day...
20:54.51jastathe real reason why the legal drinking age is 21...
20:55.04davidwit's highway money
20:55.08jastabecause nobody wants to go to a bar with high school students.
