00:00.08KotCzarnytongue scrubbers?
00:00.08KotCzarnyO.o
00:01.25lcukomg they have torture equipment for it now
00:01.44lcuki meant the none brush side of the toothbrush having a rough patch specifically for tongue cleaning

00:05.02Tama^2good to see they fully embrace the razorblade marketing technique
00:05.14GeneralAntillesHehe
00:05.18GeneralAntillesMOAR IZ BETTAR!
00:05.41GeneralAntillesmust admit to having a 5-blade razor.
00:06.11KotCzarnyfrom the pic you look unshaved tohugh
00:06.17KotCzarny*though
00:06.27qnr-ltQuestion: where can I find what the permissions should be for particular directories?  I'm having constant problems in certain respects. Apps install but say they didn't (figure they're not able to write some log files or something) - my settings never last through a shutdown, etc.
00:06.50woodwizzleIs there a good python IDE available for maemo?
00:07.13qnr-ltotherwise, things seem to work ok ... N800, OS2008, booting from MMC2
00:07.23woodwizzleMY buddy and I are learning python, and it'd be great if we could run edit and test on the go with the n800
00:07.44lcukwoodwizzle, yes there is.  its called pygtkeditor
00:07.52KotCzarnyjust write a simple pygtk app to do it
00:08.07lcukits fully designed and tested by a guy on his n800 and now 810 :)
00:08.10KotCzarnyor just add the app to menu
00:08.12KotCzarny:)
00:08.26NaviI use pygtkeditor for quick comix tweaks
00:08.28woodwizzlesweetness
00:08.42lcukits got syntax highlighting and a run button :)
00:08.48KotCzarnycool
00:08.49KotCzarny:)
00:08.56lcukall a person could ask for
00:09.08KotCzarnywhat about massage?
00:09.12lcukoh - and its the only program i know to use the zoom buttons - bigger fonts == + button ;)
00:09.22lcukno sorry, but khertan himself might do

00:21.16lcukwonder what was diff
00:22.42lcukahhh well, this is just a dirty test program for sdl, this is probably the closest i have gotten to making a smooth verison, but its not perfect and doesnt suit my rendering style still.   there may be more someone can do though

00:23.57KotCzarnyhmm
00:24.16KotCzarnyme thought for a moment to dump x
00:24.40KotCzarnybut it would break compatibility for many apps
00:24.58KotCzarnyok, brushing time
00:25.00lcuktechnically sdl can be fired with quite a lot of drivers
00:25.04lcukthere is one for directfb

00:31.05KotCzarnyyou and your absolute paths
00:31.06KotCzarny:)
00:32.25KotCzarnyhmm
00:32.36KotCzarnyhave you seen the first few pixels on the right?
00:32.48lcukwith the scaly thing?
00:32.59KotCzarnyno, i mean on that scrolling thing
00:33.12lcukyes
00:33.12KotCzarnywhen text goes up and down
00:33.38lcukim not even sure if thats the ideal version anymore, its the closest i could get it
00:33.40KotCzarnyinteresting as it goes out of/in sync
00:33.50lcukit seems to miss a frame every second
00:33.58lcuk!  ding
00:34.06AStormApparently I'll be able to drive N8x0 from 1x AA even
00:34.08KotCzarnymm?
00:34.17lcukdont we have ermmmmm whats the power/cpu updater thingy toolbar button whatsit
00:34.18KotCzarnyastorm: tested or theory?
00:34.19*** join/#maemo MoRpHeUz (n=morphbr@189.70.58.68)
00:34.19AStormI'll make such an option in my battery pack
00:34.27AStormKotCzarny: 100% possible
00:34.31KotCzarnylcuk: yes we have
00:34.44AStormif it can live off 400 mA, surely
00:34.44lcukthat refreshes once a second and takes bandwidth from the lcd
00:35.04AStormalthough efficiency will be shiz ;) like 75%
00:35.10KotCzarnyerm
00:35.11KotCzarny:/
00:35.12*** part/#maemo trbs (n=trbs@82-171-82-139.ip.telfort.nl)
00:35.13lcukit refreshes even if you are doing other things. i noticed when i was messing with the framebuffer right at the start
00:35.38AStormKotCzarny: Unless I plug that into battery port ;P
00:35.49*** join/#maemo lopz (i=Gentoo-D@unaffiliated/lopz)
00:36.02AStormthen I would get about 80%
00:36.05KotCzarnyastorm: the point is to make that battery pack complimentary
00:36.09AStormyes
00:36.17AStormso, 2x AA is more real
00:36.28*** join/#maemo dopper (n=dopper@bas1-guelph22-1177617205.dsl.bell.ca)
00:36.32KotCzarnyand it would fit along top/bottom/back
00:36.33AStorm800 mA at 89% is good
00:36.33lcuk4aa would be minimum for mw
00:36.50AStormlcuk: nowhere near minimum
00:36.54AStormmuch more than required
00:37.00AStormI'm thinking NiMH, btw
00:37.05AStormNot alkaline ;P
00:37.25AStormwould need a switch for normal battery too
00:37.30lcukbut i want longevity - play all day on one charge and leave the pack charging at night
00:37.37AStormyup
00:37.42AStorm2x AA = 2800 mAh
00:37.49AStormcoupled with internal battery, that's a lot
00:37.54KotCzarnyastorm: include possibility to piggyback those
00:38.02KotCzarnyie. to use 2 x 2AA
00:38.03AStormthis is inherent
00:38.06KotCzarnyor 3 x 2AA
00:38.08AStormah, that, hmm
00:38.16AStormgood idea
00:38.27AStormsimple to add, *if* I get proper plugs
00:38.28lcukbut the AAs will be recharging the internal battery pack?   i need to fully charge myself at least twice to do a whole day
00:38.34AStormlcuk: they will
00:38.44AStormthey'll both charge it and power the device
00:39.17KotCzarnyhmm
00:39.33lcukim gonna have to get one of these extension chargers before i go on holiday - i will give you results
00:39.34*** join/#maemo zoran (n=zoran@239.45.broadband3.iol.cz)
00:39.34AStormit's essentially additional 2400 mAh
00:39.38KotCzarnyi whink 890mA is reached only when charging + using the device
00:39.44KotCzarnyotherwise it's much less
00:39.48AStormKotCzarny: no, more can be even
00:39.51AStormup to 1A
00:39.58*** join/#maemo mk500 (n=mk500@netblock-72-25-104-105.dslextreme.com)
00:40.02AStormthat's why the device is straining AC-4E sometimes ;P
00:40.05KotCzarnybecause it goes into trickle charge mode
00:40.10AStormyes
00:40.21AStormthen it's about up to 250-300 mA
00:40.26AStormin full load
00:40.32lcukright, goognight
00:40.35KotCzarnynight night
00:40.36AStormso quite high efficiency
00:40.36KotCzarny:)

00:40.47KotCzarny3-4h of usage
00:41.00KotCzarnyon 1500mAh internal battery
00:41.02AStormKotCzarny: 4-5h
00:41.11AStormlet's say 4h
00:41.17KotCzarnyk
00:41.21KotCzarny420mA then
00:41.25AStorm400 mA
00:41.40AStormthat includes various losses
00:42.15KotCzarnylcuk: btw. no reboot is needed
00:42.17KotCzarnyonly kill -9
00:42.18KotCzarny:)
00:42.30AStormwell
00:43.10AStormwith 1x AA (NiCd/NiMH), the max current I'll be able to get will be about 400 mA, but that's old data
00:43.18AStormthese puppies have since improved
00:43.22KotCzarnyyup
00:43.32KotCzarnyyou shouldn't worry about aa cell
00:43.36AStormyep
00:44.00KotCzarnyhmm
00:44.35KotCzarny6x 2.4Ah AA could be long time
00:44.36KotCzarny:)
00:44.56AStormok, have to drop into some shop, but a few MAX1703, schottky diodes, resistors, caps and inductors ;>
00:45.07AStormKotCzarny: like a few days of usage
00:45.27AStorm6x 2800 mAh would give somewhere like 6x 2600 mAh, due to inefficiency of step-up
00:45.34KotCzarnyalso you should include cutoff switch
00:45.42AStormalthough the link mode could use 4x AA almost directly
00:45.47AStormwith very high efficiency
00:45.50AStormyes, I will
00:46.16KotCzarnybecause constant trickle charging may be damaging for internal battery
00:46.36AStormno, it isn
00:46.37AStorm't
00:46.39KotCzarnyit is
00:46.41AStormit's Li-Poly after all
00:46.42KotCzarnybelieve me
00:46.50AStormand it's not trickle-charged
00:46.55AStorm:>
00:46.57KotCzarnyit is
00:47.06KotCzarnyfrom what i have seen
00:47.14AStormI suspect not, just left to unload for a while
00:47.18AStormthen charged back up
00:47.45KotCzarnyhttp://mrrau.dyndns.org:23280/n800/kcbatt/batt2gp.png
00:47.53KotCzarnyi believe pink is charging rate

00:48.56AStormif pink is, then it's definitely *not* trickle charging :>
00:49.10KotCzarnybecause it goes from 0 to some value after connecting charger
00:49.29KotCzarnylook at the data from 24/03
00:49.50KotCzarnyit charges for an hour then goes into some jumping state
00:49.57gribouille_not bad xchat on the tablet
00:50.19AStormyup
00:50.28AStormKotCzarny: I think it's protecting from overheating
00:50.32*** join/#maemo TPC (n=andreas@pdpc/supporter/student/TPC)
00:50.40KotCzarnybut then it goes into flat line
00:50.48KotCzarnywith some spikes
00:51.08KotCzarnyand i think reading is inverted
00:51.29KotCzarnyexcluding 'not connected' state, which is at real 0
00:51.44AStormwhich spikes?
00:51.51AStormthese small at the bottom? it's noise
00:52.04AStormtrickle charge would have to be higher current
00:52.09AStormlike at least 1%
00:52.15KotCzarnyhum
00:52.29KotCzarnyon the second though you may be right
00:52.39KotCzarnyit may be a fluctuation because of using the device
00:53.26KotCzarnybtw. temperature reading is also inverted
00:53.38KotCzarnyie. hhigh on sclae mean low temp
00:53.53AStormno
00:53.54KotCzarnytemp. is blue and red
00:54.02AStormtemp. is read, right
00:54.10KotCzarnyyes, because i know when it was hot.
00:54.10AStormnote that it is charging only when temp is low
00:54.12KotCzarnybelieve me on that
00:54.33AStorm:>
00:54.56KotCzarnyie. look at 24-25/03
00:55.04KotCzarnywhen it was starting to discharge
00:55.10KotCzarnytemp. was high
00:55.21KotCzarny(and reading was low)
00:55.46KotCzarnythen after i went to sleep it gradually fallen
00:55.54KotCzarny(and reading was high)
00:56.28AStormthe slate blue might be battery use
00:56.58KotCzarnywhat is slate blue?
00:57.15KotCzarnyyou have some legend in the middle of the pic
00:57.24AStorm#10
00:57.40KotCzarnyi think it may be op_state
00:58.12gribouille_in xchat, I don't see where to put the passwords for servers. Does anyone know ?
00:58.31AStormin Network window
00:58.35AStormget to it using menu
00:58.41AStormor ctrl+something
01:00.02AStormthis kcbatt could be useful for me - where do I get it and will it work on N810?
01:00.20KotCzarnyastorm, same server
01:00.25KotCzarnyjust go up
01:00.58AStormand how do I make a chart?
01:01.06KotCzarnythere should be a subfolder
01:01.29KotCzarnyusually i just ran the bin in a screen session
01:02.30AStormlet me check
01:02.30KotCzarnyi think it reports battery voltage too
01:02.34KotCzarnybut in unscaled values
01:02.35AStormmy N810 should still be charging
01:02.42AStormmhm, no problem with it
01:03.22KotCzarnybtw. if you gather some data let me look at it too
01:03.38KotCzarnyi'm interested if n810 is much different

01:13.03AStormhmm, while charging, its telling me like, 4% or 1% ;P
01:13.20KotCzarnydon't look at % number
01:13.25KotCzarnyit's only a guesstimate
01:13.31KotCzarnylook at the field #8
01:13.31AStormreall guesstimate ;P
01:13.37AStorm#8 is 394 or so
01:13.49AStormand varies a lot
01:13.53AStormbetween runs
01:14.03KotCzarnyyup
01:14.07KotCzarnyit's raw read
01:14.12KotCzarnywithout any processing
01:14.54KotCzarnyalso #3 is the charging rate i think
01:14.58KotCzarnyor charging voltage
01:15.30AStorm8 is increasing apparently
01:15.40KotCzarnyjust look at generated png
01:15.44AStorm3 is 0xdd
01:15.51AStormnah, I don't have the script yet, wait :-)
01:16.11KotCzarnybtw. to gather data use 'batt' binary
01:16.17KotCzarnykcbatt processes data
01:16.32AStormyup
01:16.38AStormbut not kcbatt -d ;)
01:16.51AStormwait, d/ling
01:16.59KotCzarnybut if you gather data with kcbatt you will have to modify php script
01:17.06KotCzarnythat will prepare data for gnuplot

01:17.22AStormheh, php, ugh
01:17.35KotCzarnyyou can write converting script in python
01:17.39AStormsure
01:17.43KotCzarnyit's just a shuffling fields
01:17.47AStormheh
01:17.58AStormactually, for kcbatt, parsing would be even easier
01:18.04KotCzarnyand hex to int conversion
01:18.13KotCzarnyastorm, you can modify the batt.c
01:18.18AStormI know
01:18.21KotCzarnyand just generate data in format you want
01:18.22AStormbut I'm lazy ;P
01:18.39AStormand have to add gnuplot to the IT
01:18.44*** join/#maemo gribouille (n=user@96.27.100-84.rev.gaoland.net)
01:18.49KotCzarnyactually writing script in python will take more work than modifying printf
01:18.50KotCzarny:)
01:18.57AStormya
01:18.58KotCzarnyor just copy .dat file to pc
01:18.59KotCzarny:)
01:19.36KotCzarnyi like php because of preg_* functions
01:19.47KotCzarnyand easiness of operations on arrays
01:19.53AStormPython has perl regexes too :P
01:20.04AStormarrays? who needs them when we have dictionaries and lists?
01:20.08AStorm;P
01:20.20KotCzarnyi will convert to python one day
01:20.22KotCzarny:)
01:20.34KotCzarnybut for now it's faster to write code in php
01:20.35KotCzarny:)
01:21.02KotCzarnyi should make some tiny cli php port for IT

01:55.07KotCzarnyhmm
01:55.13GeneralAntillesunixSnob, . . .
01:55.14unixSnobwell keyboarding in the car is a unique problem.. because it will involve cutting a hole to access the USB port

02:03.30unixSnobwell w/ a keyboard, I don't even have to look down
02:03.31AStormbut in a car, 20ms might be enough to crash, esp. if driving >= 100 km/h
02:03.41KotCzarnyyup

02:25.58AStormunless they upgrade busybox ;P
02:26.06KotCzarnythat's a possibility
02:26.19AStormthen it won't install and will cry ;)
02:27.03gribouilleAStorm, where do I have to hack in the file ?
02:27.12AStormthe cheap and easy way to update it would be to pass overwrite ignorance to dpkg
02:27.17AStormgribouille: search for busybox
02:27.30AStormchange all packages that dep on busybox to dep on busybox | coreutils
02:27.53AStormwell, maybe except color-ls ;)
02:28.38AStormmost important are osso-core-busybox and ke-recv
02:28.59AStormthen remove Conflicts line from busybox package status
02:30.15gribouilleif one day I really want to install coreutils, I'll rebuild it with prefix=/usr/local and put /usr/local at the beginning of my PATH
02:32.03AStormyou could alternatively install coreutils with --force conflicts,overwrite
02:32.17AStormI wonder if there's something like --force ignore-overwrite
02:32.44gribouilleyes, but I don't want to break my system
02:33.00AStormmine (and not just mine) works
02:33.06AStormbut feel free to backup
02:34.15AStormI haven't changed /bin/sh
02:34.20AStormbut I do have bash3 :-

02:34.55gribouilleI cant' live without bash ;-)
02:35.27AStormI can't live with csh
02:35.33AStormand I have to :-(
02:35.55AStormbusybox' ash is weak, but still better than csh to my eyes
02:36.19gribouillenever tried
02:36.43AStormash? it's the default shell on IT
02:36.59AStormI wonder why they didn't use msh, which is more powerful and nicer
02:37.08KotCzarnyi can live without csh
02:37.09KotCzarny;)
02:37.16gribouilleAStorm, no, csh
02:37.26AStormgribouille: the default FreeBSD shell
02:37.33KotCzarnyit sucks.

02:38.43gribouilledo free wifi hotspots give full access to the INternet ?
02:39.00AStormmost don't
02:39.08AStormusually they're heavily firewalled
02:39.25AStormlike, port 80, port 443
02:39.29gribouilledo they prenvent skype ?
02:39.46AStormno, that's hard to do
02:39.58AStormthey will reduce performance of it though
02:40.10AStormyou'll use one of skypes zombies^Wrouters
02:40.12gribouillewhy is it hard to do ?
02:40.36AStormbecause skype uses passive connections through so-called routers
02:40.44AStormwhich can listen on port 80 and 443 just fine
02:40.49AStormit's P2P
02:40.57gribouilleyes I know that
02:41.08AStormsome higher bandwidth machines are marked as supersomething or another
02:41.21AStormand they will route traffic for other users too
02:42.13AStormthe system is automatic and makes the network very hard to block (even packet matching doesn't work reliably)
02:43.14gribouillebut it becomes extremely slow
02:43.23AStormno, why?
02:43.29AStormslower, yes, but not extremely
02:43.35AStormthere are really a lot of users
02:43.53AStormand algorithm picks the best router for you
02:43.57gribouilleit takes about 10 seconds to ring
02:44.19AStormthat's because it has to make a query in the network
02:44.35AStormconnecting is slow
02:44.39AStormringing isn't that bad
02:44.55AStormthat's the problem of version of Skype on IT
02:45.49gribouillewill there be a newer version ?
02:46.04AStormask Skype, not me
02:46.13AStormI guess when 2.0 is released for Linux
02:46.17AStormor slightly later
02:46.41AStormright now 2.0 for Linux is in beta testing
02:46.45AStormworks nicely
02:47.05AStormthis includes camera
02:47.07gribouillewith video ?
02:47.10AStormyes
02:47.22gribouillegreat !
02:47.26AStormbut Idk if the tablet can sustain 4 streams
02:48.02AStormskype will reduce number of frames and quality when running on a slow CPU
02:48.11AStormbut it might not be enough
02:48.20AStormthey might have to use DSP some more

04:25.35johnxyes, that's why you edit the file that came with initfs_flasher then run initfs_flasher again
04:25.57johnx...or you could remount /mnt/initfs read/write but it will probably run out of space trying to write back the file

07:04.42KotCzarnyjohnx: yes, as long you use nokia's kernel
07:05.01johnxwell, there aren't any good choices right now, so I'm not worrying about the kernel
07:05.02KotCzarnythat was the main reason to write it

08:28.40tsukasaquestion to n800 lovers
08:28.47tsukasahow much of this article is still true: http://cs.gmu.edu/~sean/stuff/n800/
08:28.47KotCzarnyperv
08:28.49tsukasabefore i get one
08:29.09KotCzarnythat depends how hardcore newton user you are
08:29.25tsukasai mean in terms of the interface sucking
08:29.32KotCzarnyit's a linux
08:29.37KotCzarnyinterface can be changed
08:29.40KotCzarnyfor kde
08:29.40KotCzarnyetc
08:29.51tsukasaare there many good interfaces for the 800
08:29.57tsukasaill define good
08:30.02tsukasasuper minamilistic while functional
08:30.08pupnikxterm
08:30.18tsukasadude its a software keyboard
08:30.31pupnikmy bluetooth keyboard waves 'hello'
08:30.47tsukasatoo clunky
08:30.48KotCzarnybt kb sleeps
08:30.59pupnikno if you go from the newton perspective, you will not like it
08:31.10pupnikif you like the idea of a linux computer in your pocket, you will like it
08:31.30pupnikother use-cases also will yield 'like it'
08:32.16tsukasaokay well, does it allow for you to change the interface completely, and are there user made interfaces
08:32.45tsukasaperhaps in a nice galley on the web somewhere?
08:32.47pupnikyes but they are ports of linux desktops
08:33.04Disttsukasa: Rotation support can be added, though that's cludgy
08:33.04tsukasado they work well? kde or gnome on n800
08:34.20tsukasawell i dont rotate that much
08:34.29janitsukasa: ui is based on gtk widgets which gnome uses also so things arent that different..
08:35.49KotCzarnytsukasa: treat maemo as a work in progress
08:35.56KotCzarnyevery year they add something nice
08:36.25tsukasaKotCzarny, what do you use?
08:36.25KotCzarnythe best thing for me is ability to compile regular software for it
08:36.53tsukasayeah thats what is attracting me to it in the first place

08:38.04KotCzarnyyup, if one likes to hack, it's the best
08:38.16KotCzarnyotherwise it may not reach the expectations
08:38.26tsukasawhat about the interface though
08:38.32KotCzarnyworks for me
08:38.33tsukasalike im looking at hildon ss on the n800
08:38.49pupniki click on menu and launch programs
08:38.54pupnikthat's the interface for me
08:39.01KotCzarnystatus bar is nice too
08:39.12tsukasaisnt there a huge bar on the right side that doesnt go away though
08:39.12KotCzarnyclock is essential for me
08:39.20tsukasaleft*
08:39.33KotCzarnytsukasa: if you enable roation support you can move it
08:39.38pupnikapps can go fullscreen too
08:39.50KotCzarnyhttp://sse2.net/rotate/
08:39.59tsukasasee thats what i dont want though, i want a *super* minimalistic interface
08:40.07tsukasaeg make that bar integrated into another and 3 pixels
08:40.13KotCzarnyhttp://sse2.net/rotate/shot02.png
08:40.18KotCzarnyis it minimalistic enough?
08:40.30tsukasais that fullscreen?
08:40.34KotCzarnyyes
08:40.51tsukasafrom the youtube videos ive seen it takes like a second to switch
08:40.55tsukasawith a flicker
08:41.03KotCzarnyand you have hardware keys to call app menu etc
08:41.27tsukasaideally id have the gui so minimalistic that it is essentially always in fullscreen
08:41.33tsukasa3 pixel menu bar
08:41.45tsukasamaybe a bit larger but you get the idea
08:41.51KotCzarnyi think that menu bar on the left is customizable with theme
08:42.03tsukasacan you integrate it with the top bar
08:42.08KotCzarnysimply replace 80 with 3 and you get your's 3px bar
08:42.43pupnikthat's news to me
08:42.58KotCzarnypupnik, yup, that's what i have done at the beginning
08:43.17KotCzarnyi was looking for a way to make that taskbar go away
08:43.18KotCzarny:)
08:43.44tsukasaKotCzarny, okay looking at this snapshot http://pidgin.garage.maemo.org/images/Maemo-Pidgin-Screenshot.png
08:44.07KotCzarnythat looks like a os2007
08:44.10tsukasais it possible to make the top bar autohiding, the left bar tiny, and the window title 2px
08:44.16tsukasaits the same layout isnt it?
08:44.26KotCzarnysimiliar
08:45.02KotCzarnyif you invest your time in building a theme then i think it's possible (without sliding part)
08:45.11pupniktsukasa: there's a hardware button to make apps go fullscreen
08:45.28pupnikright under your index finger, left hand side
08:45.31luognitsukasa, just press the fullscreen button, it's really useful to switch from/to fullscreen (and fast)
08:45.34tsukasapupnik, i know but the youtube videos ive seen show a 1 second lag and a screen flicker with that
08:45.44tsukasaplus i actually want the gui elements to be there
08:45.55tsukasajust infinitely less obtrusive
08:46.16pupnikthen make it so!

09:07.22AStormit will work
09:07.42AStormbut if these are NiMH, the voltage may drop too much for further use after some time
09:07.48AStormeven though they aren't discharged
09:08.14AStormyou need at least a cheap power regulator

09:08.57pupnikyes i'm curious how long before voltage drops too much
09:09.04AStormif it drops more than about 0.2V, you lose

09:09.29pupnikah then it will be pretty useless

09:38.27floriangood morning
09:40.32lardmandoes anyone happen to know if C++ strings in structs are still zero terminated if they reach their maximum length in the struct? Don't tell me, up to the compiler....?
09:41.34lardmans/string/char array
09:42.15inzWhy would char arrays in a struct differ from ones outside?
09:42.18kaatislardman, i believe it's std library implementation specific
09:42.51lardmaninz: only because if you don't meet the trailing 0x0 and you are at the know length of the array, you could not bother using one
09:43.05lardmanthough I imagine it will be included anyway
09:43.32lardmanactually it was a silly question, need more caffeine to wake the brain
09:43.40lardmankaatis: cheers
09:44.50lardman~lart translating C++ into MATLAB
09:44.50infobotpries translating C++ into MATLAB's back open with a screwdriver and flashes a new bootldr to translating C++ into MATLAB
09:45.34inzlardman, can't be as pita as translating MATLAB into C
09:45.51lardmaninz: yeah that is a real pain
09:46.03derfDepends on the C++.
09:46.17derfMatlab's language is basically completely deficient in a number of areas.
09:46.25lardmanderf: yes, my question was a bit silly as it's up to the code using the array
09:47.01lardmanbut make up for it many times over by not needing to do array sizing
09:47.19derfI don't often spend a lot of time worrying about array sizing.
09:47.35derfAnd I'm mostly confused by people who do.
09:48.15lardmanah, my work is pretty much about manipulating image data in time, and taking chunks for it for processing, so lots of arrays
09:48.25derflardman: So is mine.
09:49.14lardmantheora stuff
09:50.01derfAs well as my actual job.
09:50.13lardmanah, I didn't know if that was your actual job :)
09:50.20derfTheora is not.
09:50.25lardmanah, ok
09:53.17derfBut no, I got my Ph.D. doing image analysis... and I'm probably the only person in the entire field who hates matlab.

09:53.36lardman:) what do you hate about it?
09:53.41lardmanout of interest
09:54.09derfIt might be okay for doing an extremely small, limited set of things.
09:54.29derfThe problems I want to solve almost never stay within that extremely small, limited set.
09:54.49lardmansurely you then just write some code to cover a large set of things?
09:55.10derfNo, I mean the language.
09:55.22derfSuddenly everything outside of that set becomes much more difficult to do.
09:55.50derfAlmost as if these concepts were bolted on as an afterthought (gee, I can't imagine that's what happened).
09:56.31derfAnd I'd rather use a language that's mediocre at lots of things than one that's extremely good at a small set of things, and godawful at everything else.
09:57.13lardmanI suppose it depends what you need to do, but as a procedural language it fits the bill, and saves having to write the glue code (array manipulation, various mathematical operations, etc.)
09:57.29derfYou know, I can use LAPACK in C, too, if I really want to.
09:57.50lardmanbut it's more painful
09:58.09derfMatlab's problem is that it _requires_ obtuse array maniuplation to do anything.
09:58.15derfIncluding things that should have nothing to do with arrays.

09:59.12Khertan_TheRealHi ! :)
09:59.44derfWhich gets you crazy things like permute(reshape(fliplr(...),3,3,:),[1 3 2]) ... which leave you staring at that going, "What the hell does it _do_?"
10:00.36lardmanbut you cold write that in a different (slower) way if you wanted
10:00.41lardmans/cold/could
10:00.56derfSure, but in matlab "slower" becomes by orders of magnitude, so nobody does.
10:01.12lardmanbut yes, the optimisations lead to obscure code
10:01.23derfThey're not really optimizations.
10:01.27derfThey're basically required.
10:01.50lardmanagreed
10:02.10derfThat's like saying, well, you _could_ use a garbage collector in C, so you can't complain about the fact that it makes you manually allocate things.
10:02.56lardmanwell if you wanted to garbage collect it would mean you'd need to write the glue code, the same is not true of MATLAB, you can write it whichever way you want, and then it just runs slower one way
10:03.09lardmanor even both ways :)
10:03.18jotti see matlab rather as a prototyping language and for that matter it fulfills its purpose imo
10:04.13lardmanyes, I was going to say that - to tackle new problems quickly, it does its job and allows you to tackle the algorithm (for which the obscure bits can be twiddled later) rather than the glue
10:06.50lardmanthough if I'd started using C rather than MATLAB and had written a library of functions to handle n-dim arrays, etc., I may not be so bothered about the 'advantages' that MATLAB has
10:08.56jottatleast the matlab convention trains you to think vectorized so it has some didactical value :)
10:11.41lardmanit also has simulink which is why I started using it

10:24.13Khertan_TheRealso i ve two choice ... porting it to desktop, or using an online calendar ...
10:24.45Khertan_TheRealan other one will be to add support in erminig too
10:26.31glassif you want someone to use your calender, it better sync with something at least..
10:27.17Khertan_TheReali ll make sync ... personnaly i ve preferences for google agenda
10:27.53Khertan_TheReali ll be the main user ... the purpose of it is to have a calendar app that i ll use
10:28.05Khertan_TheRealnot a killer application (but i still hope :) )
10:28.52Khertan_TheRealin fact it's a fork on winzing calendar ... with customisation, simplification, and some gui change to be easily be used on a nit

22:49.21GeneralAntillesNullM0dem, the hardware is limited to 2048GB
22:49.23Mouseythat's when i get mine
22:49.37MouseyGeneralAntilles: that's a lot of GBs
22:49.37NullM0dem:)
22:49.52NullM0demIve read the n810 takes less than the n800 has this changed?

22:50.05MouseyNullM0dem: the n810 [which i have currently] only takes 1 miniSD
22:50.06NullM0demthat would be odd :-P
22:50.10qwerty12_N800Or plug in an hard drive :p
22:50.17Mouseytsukasa_: unionfs
22:50.32Mouseytsukasa_: my idea was LVM, but unionfs is probably a better solution
22:50.36KotCzarnynah
22:50.38KotCzarnytoo much fuss
22:50.46KotCzarnyand 4gb is more than enough
22:50.49MouseyHA!

23:05.27KotCzarnyjust decide based on what features you need more
23:05.34KotCzarnyportable tablet or home server

23:20.44Mouseymuch less owned
23:20.50Mouseyi don't even carry a notebook anymore
23:21.02Mouseynot that i'm a nokia fan or anything
23:21.05NullM0demive used linux since 2000 as my primary os
23:21.11NullM0demmainly slack and debian
23:21.13Mouseynice
23:21.18Mouseywell then you'll love the n810
23:21.48NullM0demI switched to linux for the free programming tools, and the baility to read source:)
23:21.50Mouseyi can't speak about the 800, i couldn't own a handheld without a keyboard. but i'm clearly not the majority
23:22.22NullM0demi dont have patiencs for stylus typing
23:22.28GeneralAntillesStylus typing is lame
23:22.33GeneralAntillesFullscreen keyboard is the way to go.
23:22.47NullM0demI type too much, I have been looking at the frogpads on think geek, anyone use these?
23:22.58GeneralAntillesJust get an iGo
23:23.03GeneralAntillesThe frogpad is way too expensive.

23:52.01jottLateralus: you could use "fuser filename" to check which pid still has the file open
23:52.27jottand also make sure to check the return value of the f*() functions
