02:53.57 | levi_home | I've got the spec printed out and I've read over it a couple of times. |
02:54.13 | maquis | levi_home: haven't had as much time as i'd like to work on it yet... |
02:54.23 | maquis | do you understand how they want arrays to work? |
02:54.32 | levi_home | Yeah. |
02:55.04 | maquis | levi_home: any chance you could clarify a bit? i'm kinda confused about register b... do i set that? or is it something that they set and give to me? |
02:55.33 | levi_home | When they talk about register letters, those refer to fields of bits in the instruction. |
02:55.39 | maquis | levi_home: yeah |
02:56.20 | maquis | but in the description for array allocation, i'm confused about whether they're giving me the number they want the array to be, or if they want me to choose one and give it to them |
02:56.26 | levi_home | So you're asking how to implement the allocation instruction? |
02:56.30 | maquis | i'm guessing the latter, but i'm not certain |
02:56.45 | maquis | i'm asking for clarification on the spec for the allocation instruction |
02:57.21 | *** join/#utah hatchmt (n=mhatch@71-219-29-246.slkc.qwest.net) |
02:57.42 | maquis | the way i'm reading it, i'm thinking they want me to choose the number to identify the array, and set that in the register |
02:57.53 | maquis | but i'm not 100% certain |
02:58.44 | maquis | aside from that, i'm fixing some things so that i can get loading working (the way i was handling things before didn't make much sense for that, since i hadn't paid attention to the fact that i'd need to load something else) |
02:59.15 | levi_home | Those 3 bits identify the register you want the new identifier to be stored in, I believe. |
02:59.23 | maquis | levi_home: yes... i got that... |
02:59.30 | maquis | but do i tell it what the new identifier is/ |
02:59.40 | maquis | or do they choose one and store it in there? |
03:00.08 | levi_home | The UM chooses it and stores it there, AFAICT. |
03:00.18 | maquis | mmkm |
03:00.27 | maquis | i was thinking it was the other way around... |
03:00.37 | levi_home | It's like making an open syscall and getting a file descriptor back. |
03:00.51 | levi_home | Except it's an array descriptor. |
03:00.56 | maquis | oh.. wait.. yeah... that is how i ws thinking it was... ithought you were saying the opposite :) |
03:01.11 | maquis | also, what's the last mini-paragraph under load program mean? |
03:05.27 | levi_home | I'm not sure. |
03:05.31 | maquis | ok |
03:05.37 | maquis | i'll assume it's not overly important, then |
03:05.45 | maquis | it looks like marketspeak or something |
03:07.45 | levi_home | Perhaps it means to do nothing if you perform load program on array 0. |
03:08.00 | maquis | ok... |
03:08.50 | levi_home | Since it would be silly to duplicate it and rewrite it with the same values. |
03:08.57 | maquis | yeah |
03:13.25 | levi_home | Oh, and don't forget byte ordering. |
03:14.21 | maquis | byte ordering? is that going to bite me? |
03:14.32 | levi_home | Possibly. |
03:14.41 | maquis | i'll look into it, then |
03:15.15 | levi_home | The behavior section talks about byte ordering. |
03:16.20 | maquis | magnificent, lovely, mediocre and shoddy? |
03:16.32 | levi_home | Yes. |
03:16.37 | levi_home | So, big-endian. |
03:16.38 | maquis | mmk... |
03:18.40 | levi_home | ntohs will take care of converting big-endian to host byte order. |
03:18.47 | levi_home | Er, ntohl |
03:26.50 | maquis | huh? |
03:27.35 | levi_home | network byte order is big-endian. |
03:28.13 | levi_home | So, if you run ntohl (network to host long) on a 32 bit big-endian value, it gets turned to a 32-bit value in host byte order. |
03:28.40 | elg | mmm, i love playing with endianness |
03:28.53 | maquis | so, before using anything as an instruction, i should just run ntohl on it? |
03:29.51 | levi_home | maquis: If you read four bytes in from the disk into a four-byte array, then cast it to a long int, you should run ntohl on that long int. |
03:30.30 | maquis | levi_home: but it'll still have the problem if i just read it in as an int, right? |
03:30.56 | elg | the data comes in as four bytes |
03:31.02 | elg | in network order |
03:31.07 | maquis | elg: ok... |
03:31.09 | elg | unless you convert it to host order, it's wrong |
03:31.16 | maquis | so, i just need to run that regardless |
03:31.17 | elg | (unless host order is network order, of course) |
03:31.20 | elg | yup |
03:31.24 | maquis | just checking |

03:38.06 | levi_home | Even if host order is network order, if you want it to be portable, you should run the byte order conversion. It generally becomes a null macro when no conversion is needed. |
03:39.40 | elg | yup |
03:39.42 | maquis | ok |
03:39.44 | maquis | cool |
03:39.58 | elg | if you don't use ntohl you will be drawn and quartered in your sleep by the network gremlins |
03:40.55 | maquis | somehow, i don't think i've ever needed to use that before... wonder if i've shot myself in the foot due to that previously |
03:41.36 | levi_home | maquis: If you developed regularly on a PPC mac, you probably would have noticed. :) |
03:43.25 | maquis | levi_home: haven't developed on a mac ever :) |
03:44.01 | levi_home | maquis: It's mostly like developing on any other unix system, except it's big-endian. |
03:44.54 | maquis | yeah |
03:44.58 | maquis | i figured |
03:45.09 | maquis | well... actually, if you count hypercard......... :) |
03:45.13 | elg | if you developed mostly on a mac you probably wouldn't have noticed |
03:45.20 | elg | it's if you develop heterogenously |

03:50.28 | mheath[laptop] | Someone wrote a letter to the editor at the standard examiner....... |
03:50.48 | levi_home | ................... |
03:50.59 | mheath[laptop] | Saying that people who burn the flag are justified in doing so, because the flag is a symbol of the people it represents, and "this adminsitration has been doing horribly" |
03:51.09 | levi_home | Extended ellipses seem to be the fad of the hour. |
03:51.43 | maquis | i wouldn't say that, but i find it somewhat funny that people who burn the flag don't realize how hypocritical their actions are.... |
03:51.57 | maquis | levi_home: i always use ellipses... and smetimes they end up extended |
03:52.01 | mheath[laptop] | apparently they missed the part where the flag represents the millions of people who have given their life fighting for what has been the greatest andn most successful government over the last 250 years |
03:52.32 | ScytheBlade1 | mheath[laptop], the flag represents whatever someone wants it to represent. Welcome to America. |
03:52.34 | levi_home | mheath[laptop]: Apparently you missed the part where they're doing it just to get a rise out of people like you, and you're doing exactly what they want. |
03:52.41 | maquis | mheath[laptop]: the thing is, those people have fought and died, to protect the rights of the people, including the right to burn the flag |
03:52.46 | mheath[laptop] | I look at my picture of the flag raising on Iwo Jima, and it sickens me that people would feel justified in burning that symbol just because they dislike Mr. Bush. |
03:54.10 | mheath[laptop] | It reminds me of a poem called My Name is Old Glory, written in the first person from the point of view of the flag |
03:54.16 | maquis | mheath[laptop]: people are excercising the right that they have as a result of the people who have died for freedom. it's hypocritical, sure... but i don't think it should be illegal. |
03:54.49 | mheath[laptop] | There is a line in tehre that says "I have been soiled, burned, torn and trampled on the streets of my country, and when it is by those with whom I have served in battle - it hurts. But I shall overcome - for I am strong." |
03:55.08 | elg | first person anthropomorphising poems are the one of the worst kinds of poems, in general, imho |
03:55.11 | maquis | mheath[laptop]: yes... i've read it... many times |
03:55.15 | levi_home | elg: Amen. |
03:55.22 | elg | and I don't think much of poems in general |
03:55.57 | levi_home | I like some poetry, but not sappy patriotic poetry. |
03:55.58 | maquis | elg: i disagree... i recall having read some good ones (i don't remember exactly which ones, unfortunately) |
03:56.12 | mheath[laptop] | elg, you should hear this poem read ontop of the Battle Hymn of the Republic music, while an honor guard folds the US flag to present to an Admiral who is retiring from the United States Navy. |
03:56.13 | maquis | i like "o captain my captain" |
03:56.52 | elg | mheath[laptop]: it sounds very honorable and emotional, but I'm afraid you shouldn't be hopeful that I'd like it |
03:56.57 | elg | because I almost certainly would not |
03:57.20 | elg | whether it's talking about the country I love, the religion I believe in, or my favorite flavor of ice cream, poems just don't do it for me |
03:57.37 | maquis | elg: have you read any poems by shel silverstein? |
03:57.45 | elg | now some of those are good |
03:57.54 | maquis | yeah |
03:57.59 | maquis | those were the first poems i read |
03:57.59 | elg | there are some good poems, amazingly enough |
03:58.04 | maquis | i've got almost all his books |
03:58.12 | elg | and dr seuss |
03:58.33 | elg | and lots of poems that make fun of poems are pretty good |
03:59.05 | levi_home | I like T. S. Eliot |
04:00.16 | maquis | i've heard some really good T.S. Eliott poems |
04:05.39 | levi_home | My favorite is The Hollow Men, which I read along with Heart of Darkness. |
04:06.08 | elg | poetry to me is tolkien |
04:06.20 | elg | until he starts on with those silly songs, ironically |
04:11.28 | levi_home | Tolkien is definitely prose, aside from the silly songs. I do like the one ring poem, though. |
04:20.38 | mheath[laptop] | My favorite poet remains Sir Alfred Lord Tennyson |
04:21.58 | mheath[laptop] | They had a really annoying form on their website...it checked the world length of your letter, but the longer it was the longer it took, to the point where a paragraph in it was impossible to type |
04:22.03 | mheath[laptop] | Had to open up notepad then copy/paste |
04:27.43 | maquis | it checked word-length while you typed? |
04:28.12 | mheath[laptop] | Yes. |
04:28.44 | mheath[laptop] | i'm thinking that firefox must have some minor incompatability, because I can't see how they could guage that kind of preformance as being at all tolerable for your average IE users |

16:16.44 | bonez39 | jsmith, how's * lately? |
16:17.04 | jsmith | bonez39: Rockin' |
16:17.19 | mrpull_ | Jayce^: i've been leaning toward wikis for faqs as well |
16:18.48 | bonez39 | jsmith, do you run all your phones through asterisk? does asterisk interact with cell phones well? |
16:19.23 | jsmith | bonez39: Yeah, I run all my home phones and work phones through Asterisk. |
16:19.44 | jsmith | bonez39: And you can buy cell stations to get Asterisk to talk to the cell network as well |
16:20.33 | rsimpkins | jsmith: You run your home phones through it? For the purpose of just being able to say that, or for a genuine "everyone should do this" reason? |
16:20.56 | emcnabb | how much does it cost to buy a phone number that bridges to your home Asterisk box? |
16:20.58 | jsmith | rsimpkins: Neither... I have my home phones on Asterisk because of the features it offers... |
16:21.03 | bonez39 | jsmith, hope you don't mind my questions...if I have a P3 machine, with 10 gb hdd....would such a machine work as my asterisk server? I'd need a sip box...and then you say this cell addon? |
16:21.20 | jsmith | bonez39: Yeah, as long as you're not doing too many simultaneous calls |
16:21.28 | jsmith | emcnabb: $10/month or so... |
16:21.37 | bonez39 | jsmith, my interest at home and work...is the ability to set up custom greetings for special callers...... |
16:21.37 | emcnabb | not bad |
16:21.58 | jsmith | bonez39: Yeah, that'd be fine then. |
16:22.00 | nick125_lappy | bonez39: you can do that |
16:22.37 | bonez39 | jsmith, I guess what I need next then is to land on the right SIP box...Sipura? what do you run, what hardware? |
16:22.55 | jsmith | I've got all kinds... |
16:23.09 | jsmith | I like the Linksys SPA-942 and Cisco 7960 as far as IP phones |
16:23.14 | nick125_lappy | jsmith: what kind of SIP device do you use? I need a sip device... |
16:23.30 | jsmith | I like the Linksys SPA-3000 for a SIP converter... |
16:23.31 | bonez39 | jsmith, that is my question too...which SIP device |
16:24.04 | jsmith | As far as an IP phone, or an analog-to-SIP adapter? |
16:24.34 | bonez39 | SIP adapter |
16:24.41 | nick125_lappy | I liked the look and features of the SPA-942 |
16:25.09 | jsmith | bonez39: Check out the SPA-2000 and SPA-3000 series... |
16:26.01 | bonez39 | jsmith, do these work with zfone, that encryption scheme, that allows end to end encrypted calling? |
16:27.00 | jsmith | Nope... |
16:27.03 | rsimpkins | I just want one of those things where you call a phone and you hear music instead of a ring. I wanna put a recording though. "Welcome to the supercom 3000. Please wait while I establish a communication link with the mothership." |
16:27.25 | jsmith | zfone only works with soft phones right now. |
16:27.30 | jsmith | rsimpkins: Easy enough to do... |
16:27.57 | nick125_lappy | you could do MoH too...that would probably be best.. |
16:28.06 | jsmith | Yup... |
16:28.40 | rsimpkins | Huh? |
16:29.13 | bonez39 | I'd want a special message for all the cellemarketers...and other phone pests.....that would drive them all to drink.....and suicide...hehehe |
16:29.33 | rsimpkins | MoH? Medal of Honor? |
16:29.36 | nick125_lappy | hahaha |
16:29.39 | nick125_lappy | rsimpkins: music on hold |
16:31.58 | jsmith | bonez39: Telemarketer Torture! |
16:32.21 | nick125_lappy | I think voipsupply's shipping prices are.....a rip off...would that be the right word? |
16:33.30 | bonez39 | jsmith, yes..indeed..I'd want these knuckleheads checking in to the nearest psych ward for heavy medication treatment....after calling me |
16:33.41 | bonez39 | nick125_, a sipoff? |
16:34.33 | nick125_lappy | $10 for home delivery, $42 for overnight |
16:35.09 | rsimpkins | bonez39: You probably need to suck them in first.. 'Oooo. I am so glad you called me. I've been wanting your product SOOOO bad. Just hold on a sec. I gotta use the bathroom...' 10 minute pause. Then if the poor sap is still there he is of the type that can be easily messed with. |

21:55.19 | \me | minus the stupid part |
21:55.29 | ^Migs^ | Texans and Perl obviously are made for each other. |
21:56.01 | \me | yup - we're not stupid and we don't need ints :-) |
21:59.36 | ^Migs^ | if you're going to do away with ints, why not just use PHP? That way you don't have to use that redundant "my" |
21:59.55 | ^Migs^ | yup, Texans and Perl go together |
21:59.56 | herlo | or use Python |
22:00.10 | ^Migs^ | I don't think Texans are smart enough for Python |
22:01.27 | herlo | or rather Dynamic Types |
22:01.38 | elg | yay printer |
22:01.53 | herlo | ^Migs^: I guess I'd have to agree with the Texan comment however |
22:02.15 | \me | texans have no use for python |
22:02.22 | \me | we love ruby though |
22:02.39 | herlo | ~beat Texans for lack of love for Python |
22:02.45 | ibot | ACTION beats Texans for lack of love for Python with a dripping-wet and less-than-fresh fish. |
22:03.14 | \me | ^Migs^: I thought PHP still used my and our, etc. |
22:03.45 | elg | alaska help us |
22:11.03 | ^Migs^ | I'm sure the average typical idiot Texan would think that, \me |
