nukeAFK has joined #arpnetworks nuke`: console one coil_: is there any way to tell which host machine you're on?
my vps locked up yesterday
so i wonder if our problems are related, nuke RandalSchwartz: maybe by a traceroute
first hop up is the host OS coil_: hmm, i'm in single user mode right now so i can't find out just yet
im buildworld'ing right now nuke`: i can ping it
Average time over 10 pings: 51.6 ms
its where nukeAFK is
but is always ping out RandalSchwartz: actually - yeah, the console IP is probably related to the machine it's on coil_: i use 208.79.88.69
to vnc in
* Dns resolved 208.79.88.69 to kvr04.arpnetworks.com
hmmm nuke`: mine is kvr02 coil_: ahh ok ***: zeepk4ever is now known as pakistanb
pakistanb is now known as pakistanblade coil_: well ill shoot an email off to support ***: pakistanblade is now known as BarberRonny dxtr: Crap. I need a new hdd :( nuke`: i did it a couple of hours ago dxtr: Hmm
Can't one get an entire directory with sftp? coil_: -r ? RandalSchwartz: rsync :)
frankly, I stopped using sftp long ago
and even before that, I never realized cp had -r because I had grown used to using rsync for all that
much more versatile
*and* restartable DaCa: it got alot better in recent openssh, including finally filename-completion
but indeed, rsync is the best dxtr: Might start using that more RandalSchwartz: rsync -avxP host:/path/to/there/ /path/to/here/ dxtr: Holy crap! -P is just plain awesome
I love you, RandalSchwartz
I'll start using rsync to copy files between disks :P
Is it available on vanilla Mac OS X (Leopard)? RandalSchwartz: yea
and on OSX add -A to copy resource fokrs
I think it's -A
oops -X dxtr: :P RandalSchwartz: so with -X you can accurately clone all mac files
including resource forks dxtr: Just asked because my girlfriend got a mac and we transfer much data to each other RandalSchwartz: I regularly clone folders of uh, mixed origin using that dxtr: Hmm.. btw, in emacs
How do I unset a mark? RandalSchwartz: There's probably a better way, but I just hit ^G
that seems to clear it dxtr: Awesome
It even worked in firemacs :D
Oh yeah
C-g - resets the mark RandalSchwartz: I think I just learnedearly on that ^G means "abort!"
ahh, so it's literally the right thing :) dxtr: Isn't ESC-ESC-ESC "Abort!"
?
At least that's what I've read on the internet RandalSchwartz: no - that's to cut out of the minibuffer
^G will abort running loops
speaking of which... time to upgrade emacs to 23.2
soon as it's built, I gotta leave for a few minutes. :)
by the way, if you haven't played around with Tramp and Eshell in emacs, you're missing out
^x ^f /otherhost:/path/to/file RET dxtr: Who are you calling a tramp? :) RandalSchwartz: ok - back in a few minutes I hope ***: RandalSchwartz has quit IRC (Remote host closed the connection)
RandalSchwartz has joined #arpnetworks RandalSchwartz: in theory, now on 23.2
mailcrypt is broken though
I need to figure out why
Hmm. upgrading emacs must've uninstalled it :)
I'm not using it anyway
so are new registrations still frozen?
I heard that from some other list today
ahh. says so on th epage dxtr: hehe RandalSchwartz: the original batgirl turned 73 today
she was also the green-skinned orion girl on the insane-asylum planet

dont say that
cuz we cant ge tone nestea: ya think so atm, should be in soon spits: me and ste were gonna get one nestea: just wait :)
cool dxtr: Crap. Sometimes I kind of dislike that my english sucks. "... my girlfriend (which by the way...." sounded awesome in my head... Until someone commented it and said that my girlfriend is definitely a "who". A big "meh", face palm and some embarassment for that :P nestea: its worth it spits: dude up_the_irons: spits: i'd encourage you to email preorder@arpnetworks.com spits: lol up_the_irons: to get on the priority list spits: how long is a few weeks tho? nestea: ^^ spits: like

so
wait! spits: lol

heheh
yeh do what RandalSchwartz says up_the_irons: spits: middle of june, however slots periodically open up, so it is good to get on the priority list nestea: up_the_irons: he is my buddy ;x spits: ok nestea: hehe RandalSchwartz: it's good to be a victim of your own success up_the_irons: nestea: i figured :) nestea: spits: preorder@arpnetworks.com RandalSchwartz: this is a guarantee that ARP will be around next month :) up_the_irons: haaha nestea: yeah these guys are out for the gusto! RandalSchwartz: if up_the_irons could configure a box for you in 15 minutes, I'd worry
backlog is good dxtr: up_the_irons: Not going into detail if it's too sensitive - but you must make a fortune out of this. You're cheap but people are like vultures for your services :P RandalSchwartz: are you having to get racks in a new building yet?
or are they all still in the same walking area?
the building depicted at the beginning of SouthLAnd :) up_the_irons: dxtr: LOL. this business is hardly a get rich type of thing ;) my hardware costs are insane
RandalSchwartz: all in the same walking area RandalSchwartz: yeah - he buys stuff for us at $50k a pop, then gets $500 a month for ... 100 months. :) dxtr: up_the_irons: I hope for heavens sake that you make a decent living out of it RandalSchwartz: I suspect he's not flying a private jet, but I bet he's not eating ramen dxtr: I don't have the silghtest clue to how many customers he's got so I'm kind of guessing RandalSchwartz: at least 3. :) AndrewBC: hahah up_the_irons: LOL AndrewBC: if I had to hazard a guess, I'd say 4 times however many usually are in this channel as a bare minimum
We'll see how ridiculous that is RandalSchwartz: I'm guessing actually only about 1/10 of the customers might be regulars here
IRC isn't a usual thing up_the_irons: dxtr: I don't make a living at all out of it, i have a day job ;) was discussed a while back: http://irclogger.arpnetworks.com/irclogger_log/arpnetworks?date=2009-08-12,Wed&sel=53#l49 AndrewBC: Hm, that's true dxtr: But I've never seen a place like this where people are actually like vultures (That's not necessarily a bad thing!) and the admins have to set up a pre-order list
Aaah! I've actually thought that (No.. I don't think about this on the way to and from school..) ***: RandalSchwartz has quit IRC (Remote host closed the connection) up_the_irons: IRC growth is like reverse logarithmic. grew a lot at first, but as a channel gets "fat", people tend to not care to stay around. it's like when communities get too big, they cease to have the "small community" feel dxtr: Yeah, like Randal just left up_the_irons: dxtr: http://www.prgmr.com/xen/ has a pre-order list
they are always sold out dxtr: I said *I'VE* never seen :) up_the_irons: dxtr: just sayin :) dxtr: Hehe. but seriously, the cheapest vps' here costs the same for half the performance
And then they are run on openvz or some crap ***: RandalSchwartz has joined #arpnetworks RandalSchwartz: ugh... my new emacs isn't hitting my IMAP correctly dxtr: Like my last provider; I couldn't set the clock (So ntp was out of the question), no ip6tables (But they had native ipv6 connectivity) and if I wanted to run any BSD I'd have to pay like $50 each month because they ran it on vmware
"License stuff"
I raged so I popped a vein on my forehead up_the_irons: LOL AndrewBC: up_the_irons, funny you linked that. I fired off an email to them so they would let me know when they have openings. That must have been over 6 months ago. I haven't gotten any replies after the initial conversation. up_the_irons: and that's why you're here dxtr: Yeah up_the_irons: AndrewBC: o'rly? interesting AndrewBC: Yeah, I don't know if I fell through the cracks or what, but oh well. up_the_irons: AndrewBC: i had a sneaking suspicion that they are simply sitting on what they got, instead of getting more hardware RandalSchwartz: up_the_irons - do you know Alex Teslik AndrewBC: Oh that makes sense, when your profit margin is really slim, getting more hardware can be pretty scary. up_the_irons: AndrewBC: their prices are even lower than mine, i actually don't see how they could even afford hardware; it must take a while for them to make up their cost
RandalSchwartz: no dxtr: up_the_irons: Do you think there's a possibility an earth quake (Or something) will move LA to the east coast so I will get better ping times to the VPS?
because that's the only thing I.. Dislike is the wrong word. Like less :P RandalSchwartz: he's one of the leads of disney animation
local guy
disney tv mostly AndrewBC: up_the_irons, yeah they're insanely cheap. Makes me wonder what would happen if disaster struck them, you know? up_the_irons: dxtr: i hope my building is pretty earthquake resistant ;) RandalSchwartz: then again, working for disney here means you're one of 50,000
people used to do that to me working at Tektronix in Portland up_the_irons: RandalSchwartz: i work for a small subsidiary of Disney, so I don't end up meeting a lot of the people that work direct w/ Disney RandalSchwartz: "oh you work for Tek... you must know..." dxtr: up_the_irons: I'm not saying anything should be destroyed.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sven RandalSchwartz: Sure. but with the little spanish accent? dxtr: Haha RandalSchwartz: "my name, although one syllable, will be pronounced with more stress than the rest of the sentence" dxtr: I remember when I used to play games and talked a lot with americans that had a hard time grasping å, ä and ö :D
"How is that even pronounced!? a-with-two-dots!?" RandalSchwartz: well - every language has 40 phonemes, so I'm sure there's a few that we have that you have trouble with
we just use the language of God... ASCII dxtr: Hehe RandalSchwartz: if it was good enough for God in the King James Bible, it's good enough for us. dxtr: Cyrillic Å“

I was out of ideas RandalSchwartz: Perl? -: RandalSchwartz perks up his ears RandalSchwartz: egah
new CGI::Fast
ugh ugh
h1/h4
you have no sense of levels :)
h1 should be over h2
not h4 dxtr: Actually when I hacked it together it was more "This is the correct size.. I'll fix it later"
But I never fixed it RandalSchwartz: yeah - don't pick header level by size
that's... wrong dxtr: Hehe
I know. But it wasn't supposed to be seen by anyone else but me. But then I never fixed it and people started browsing my public dir ;)
But hold on for a second now
aaah
Now I see it
print h1($title),h2(),h3(),h4(time_strftime(....)); <- Quick fix :D RandalSchwartz: no no
wrong
no and wrong dxtr: I was kind of joking
You know... a joke?
:) RandalSchwartz: doesn't translate
jøke? :) dxtr: Yeah, kind of
But don't bash the html. I hate it and would rather have nothing to do with it
Bash the perl instead :) RandalSchwartz: I already did
"new CGI::Fast"
wrong
wrong wrong dxtr: It is? RandalSchwartz: yup
you should write "CGI::Fast->new"
indirect object notation is harmful dxtr: http://www.perl.com/doc/manual/html/lib/CGI/Fast.html RandalSchwartz: then the manual is wrong
you should read perl docs instead dxtr: Just sayin' :) RandalSchwartz: indirect object notation was cute for about two years
and CGI::Fast isn't core
so don't blame the core
blame the third party dxtr: I'm not blaming anything here RandalSchwartz: sure you are
"It is?"
instead of just "ok, lemme fix it"
so you're looking to place blame dxtr: At first I was fishing for an explanation RandalSchwartz: swedish fishing! dxtr: And then I just said "I just read it here. Please don't hurt me", kind of :P RandalSchwartz: yes - all elements of assigning blame dxtr: At least I didn't actively (conciously) try to blame anyone! -: jdoe blames up_the_irons
RandalSchwartz blames dxtr's parents dxtr: RandalSchwartz: Fixed it now o/ -: jdoe blames perl RandalSchwartz: No no. Perl is sacred
Perl is good
Perl can only be abused by humans
but in its pure form, it is holy jdoe: RandalSchwartz: when you give people 3 billion ways to write something, I don't think you get to complain when most are wrong ;)
haha. Concur. RandalSchwartz: and it's a good thing Perl doesn't give people 3 billion ways AndrewBC: that sounds more like the ruby mantra RandalSchwartz: Larry has been quoted as saying "sure, a few ways to do something, but 10? that's crazy"
when someone suggested a few more variations for something
so yes, Larry is sane
and even so, Larry is sure that each way to do something is *optimized* for some aspect of it
not jsut pure syntax fluff jdoe: in a brief moment of seriousness, I have nothing against perl. I love perl. I hate CPAN, but I love perl. dxtr: RandalSchwartz: Check it now! RandalSchwartz: hate CPAN?
it's the saving throw of Perl!
nobody else has that AndrewBC: if I were born sooner, I probably would know and like Perl. RandalSchwartz: you mean earlier in the morning? dxtr: I actually like cpan AndrewBC: No, I mean sooner than I was born :P dxtr: Are we talking hours, AndrewBC? RandalSchwartz: yeah, minutes, hours or days? AndrewBC: Well, I think I'm as specific as I can be given that this is hypothetical :D RandalSchwartz: decades? dxtr: centuries? RandalSchwartz: in the 17th century, you claim "oh, in the 20th century they will invent Perl, and I shall like that then..." :) AndrewBC: Captain's log, year 1: I love Perl soooo much. I carved it out in a cave even though it hasn't been invented yet, and boy is it expressive! RandalSchwartz: "there's more than one way to carve it!" AndrewBC: hahah dxtr: Did the egyptians code perl with hieroglyphs? RandalSchwartz: they spoke Perl as a native language!
print "cleo!"; print "other guy!" dxtr: No, I'm pretty certain that was the romans RandalSchwartz: the romans used python. more orderly indenting
the Huns used TCL dxtr: Horrible
The vikings probably spoke Ook! AndrewBC: "<RandalSchwartz> the romans used python. more orderly indenting" <- genius. RandalSchwartz: The early native americans were the last peoples to actually understand Haskell
The germans used fortran
Brits? COBOL dxtr: Haha ***: heavysixer has quit IRC (Quit: heavysixer) RandalSchwartz: And the Poles? (too obvious)... RPN dxtr: Lisp? RandalSchwartz: Clearly the french

Is that actually a language? AndrewBC: yup dxtr: And that's still used?
That's just... wow... I can't describe the feelings I have right now
I'm devastated AndrewBC: I suppose so, but I don't want to think about that dxtr: I think lisp is kind of weird in an awesome way
I feel awesome whenever I get to do something with it (even though I've never done something "real" in it) - but I don't think I'll ever really learn lisp AndrewBC: heh RandalSchwartz: MUMPS is still heavily used yes dxtr: That's actually quite disturbin
disturbing -: AndrewBC shudders dxtr: I should probably go to bed now AndrewBC: Gnight dxtr: Going up in three hours or so
Oh well, good night/evening/afternoon/morning, etc. RandalSchwartz: good $localtime :) infrared: heh jdoe: RandalSchwartz: sorry, was busy elsewhere. My complaint with CPAN is the unreliable quality of the modules (some is great, some is purely non-functional, and some worked once but not anymore...) ... and the fact that every module in CPAN seems to rely on every other module.
... on the other hand, there's a module for everything you want and several things you don't.
so that's awesome. RandalSchwartz: the latter is an exaggeration
most modules have only 1 or 2 dependencies at most
it's only "do-all" modules like catalyst that go crazy
rarely do I install a random module that requires more than 1 or 2 others jdoe: yeah but it snowballs. RandalSchwartz: no it doesn't
FUD
please stop jdoe: it's not THAT uncommon to install something and have it pull in a dependency that in turn pulls in a dependency. RandalSchwartz: there are a few large frameworks
you've installed those
don't paint the rest of the CPAN with that jdoe: haha. XML::RSS is hardly a large framework. RandalSchwartz: *most* of the CPAN is fairly small
actually - it needs a lot
XML parsing is actually somewhat complex
and a long ways from Perl's native skills jdoe: parsing text isn't one of perl's native skills? :) RandalSchwartz: XML isn't just parsing
you can do it with regex... slowly ***: nukeAFK has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 268 seconds) RandalSchwartz: the XML modules tend to use expat or libxml2
as they should
and there's where your dependencies come in

nukeAFK has joined #arpnetworks RandalSchwartz: because forcing people to change their passwords has been shown to be less safe?
forcing change every few weeks or months was based on raw cracking speed for bad algorithms
now that we don't do that, change only means that people write down their passwords, or pick stupid ones
so it's actually *less* secure to regularly rotate, rather than *more* secure coil_: does anyone know the password for the arpnetworks account ? RandalSchwartz: what do you mean? coil_: well

there was two user accounts
mango

just didn't know how to reset it :)
