19:04.19jsmithSilly power outages :-(
19:04.39elgscons sucks
19:07.40jsmithscons, the software?
19:11.11elgscons the "let's improve on make by giving people a few useful tools and making them write their own build logic so that every scons "makefile" is opaque, buggy, and incomplete and things will exponentially approach the ugliness of autotools without the benefits"
19:12.15elgmake may be lame, but it's easy to do simple things in it and it's easy to read even the really strange syntax
19:12.20elgscons is opaque to all but python programmers who have stuffed the massive scons api into their brains
19:12.47nick125_lappyelg: That sounds painful
19:12.56elgi gave it a fair shot
19:13.05elgwe used it on ardour. I dealt with it all summer
19:13.14elgand now I'm trying to build another program that's using scons
19:13.30elgfirst it needed a specific version because the scons api keeps changing
19:13.48elgthen I can't find any reasonable way to do the equivalent of setting CFLAGS
19:13.55jsmithReally?
19:13.59elgya
19:14.06jsmithYou'd think that would be one of the most important things?
19:14.07elgyou'd think, you know - basic functionality?
19:14.24elgon ardour, we did a lot of configure-like checks
19:14.36elgscons offered no easy way to remember the results of those checks
19:14.44elgso every tiniest rebuild took 5 minutes
19:14.53elgmostly doing checks that it repeats every single time
19:15.35elgisn't that a fundamental element of the design of autotools? I mean autotools is an example of how not to write software but its goals and raison dĂȘtre are solid
19:16.25jsmithI 100% agree with you
19:19.11elgi'm all for improving make. my opinion is now officially and irrevocably that scons is a failed attempt
19:19.32jsmithirrevocably, eh?
19:19.43jsmithThat's a strong word when it comes to software ;-)
19:20.35elgit would take a serious redesign and paradigm shift on their part, and probably completely break all backwards compatibility which would destroy their momentum
19:21.07elgso I'd say with about the same probability as that I will suddenly start levitating because the air molecules all line up and start pressing up on my chair
19:21.47nick125_lappyAnyone here use ifplugd on gentoo?
19:22.02elgwhich incidentally was discussed in a talk at the miniconference here today :) trying to figure out how to rectify things that are "impossible" to physicists and merely "very improbable" to statisticians
19:22.09elgtalking about said things, that is

19:29.41elgincidentally, while rake isn't nearly as sucky as scons, it's still not an improvement on make, imho

22:20.55elgad on sf.net: "Try Minix 3, the blah blah blah, much smaller than linux!"
22:21.00elgas if size is an issue these days
22:21.32Teneelg: not in personal computers, no
22:24.38elgi wish  i could remember the whole thing but my network connection froze just as I was about to type it and I had closed the window
22:26.06elgTene: it didn't say, "try minix 3, the awesome embedded system"
22:26.32elgit had a picture of a racoon too. everybody knows you can't embed racoons
22:26.53Tene*I* can!
22:27.37elgonly if you leave out the part of the brain that knows how to open garbage cans
22:27.43elgbut then is it really a racoon?
22:27.52TeneWell, not really...
22:28.37elgsigh

23:01.38elg(listening to a math dept presentation)
23:01.49elgI wonder if CS is as opaque to them
23:01.57elgas their crazy math jargon is to us
23:04.01elg"diamond true which is the same as box not true not true false which is the same as ..."
23:04.06elgword for word
23:04.43elgI bet you didn't know box p -> box box p is the same as diamond diamond p -> diamond p
