Swhack! 22 May 2009

00:03:06 <deltab> phenny: ask sbp So NSCFArrays don't have absolute urls? how are you meant to make RDF statements about them?
00:03:07 <phenny> deltab: I'll pass that on when sbp is around.
00:05:09 <[bjoern]> I like the google results for NSCFArrays - "What the heck", "Troll-fre bridge type at runtime", and "memory leak in deepMutableCopy"
00:05:19 <[bjoern]> Admittedly I read an "r" too much into one of them
00:05:37 <[bjoern]> and insufficiently many es.

01:25:23 <Monty2> ahh

13:41:43 <sbp> .title http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/8061979.stm
13:41:45 <phenny> sbp: BBC NEWS | UK | Pornographic videos flood YouTube
13:42:43 <sbp> “As the disturbing videos were being uploaded, many viewers added them to their favourites and rated them highly.”
13:42:48 <sbp> apparently it was a 4chan thing
13:46:02 <clsn> sbp: http://tinypic.com/r/so1xf9/5  (the top and bottom read "And God said..." "And there was light").  I have a T-shirt like it in English already, but without the faded-parchment look.
13:46:13 <clsn> So I thought I'd work on a faded-parchment one.
13:47:40 <clsn> I just misspent an hour working on an ℵ₁≟C shirt that is cooler than just the equation written down.  Still not done, but I have to do actual stuff.  I'll show you if you want.
13:50:00 <sbp> chuckle
13:50:10 <sbp> hmm, one of those is Faraday's Law
13:50:17 <sbp> what are the others? all electromagnetic, I assume
13:50:31 <clsn> Maxwell's Equations.
13:50:42 <clsn> I have a shirt in Hebrew which uses the relativity equations, but that isn
13:50:47 <clsn> that isn't the right set.
13:50:56 <clsn> You can derive the phenomenon of light from Maxwell's.
13:51:06 <clsn> You can even prove that light travels at the speed of light.
13:51:08 <sbp> ah, thanks
13:51:14 <clsn> Which is less obvious than it might seem.
13:51:18 <sbp> c = c
13:51:33 <clsn> You can also do Maxwell's equations in integral form; the differential form looks cool too.
13:54:06 <clsn> http://web.meson.org/cache/alephshirt.png for the unfinished continuum shirt.
13:55:01 <sbp> now you just need it in one of those reversable scripts
13:55:10 <sbp> so it looks the same when you're hanging upside down
13:56:17 <clsn> Mmm.  Nah, not part of the joke, not worth stressing over.
13:56:50 <clsn> Maybe a motto "Undecidable" or something underneath it, but that might be too obvious.
13:57:46 <Charles> Forgive my ignorance, but what does the big C mean?
14:00:46 <sbp> Charles: the size of the set of real numbers
14:01:11 <Charles> Oh, I see.
14:01:33 <sbp> “Many mathematicians believe that C and aleph-one are the same, but this cannot be proven. (It is provable that it cannot be proven)” — http://math.bu.edu/people/jeffs/mathematicians.html
14:03:56 <Charles> Ah.. so then what do the digits on the diagonal signify?
14:04:10 <clsn> Slightly a bummer that C doesn't have a cooler symbol associated with it.  It may actually have, but not one widely known.
14:04:36 <clsn> The proof that ℵ₀<C involves the diagonal like that.
14:05:31 <Charles> Ah. I must read up on this..
14:06:17 <clsn> .wik cantor's diagonalization proof
14:06:18 <phenny> "Cantor's diagonal argument, also called the diagonalisation argument, the diagonal slash argument or the diagonal method, was published in 1891 by Georg Cantor as a proof that there are infinite sets which cannot be put into one-to-one correspondence with the infinite [...]" - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cantor's_diagonal_argument
14:10:57 <Charles> ahh, of course. Nice idea for a shirt.
14:12:02 <clsn> That's what I thought.  I am in fact currently wearing a shirt that says "ℵ₁=C?", but it's pretty simple.  Had it made when I was in Israel once, thinking "where else can I find tourist T-shirt shops that have hebrew letters to iron on?"
14:12:14 <clsn> This was before cafepress.com.  In 1985 I think.
14:12:43 <Charles> And you're still wearing it? Must've been a pretty good print.
14:15:52 <clsn> It's definitely faded a little.  But it isn't like I wore it every day.

15:52:15 <sbp> woah, cool. do you remember any of it?
15:53:04 <sbp> you'll be excited to know that (as usual) they seem mainly to have stolen from classical writers, with a bit of colloquiality and folk understanding thrown in for flavour

15:56:39 <sbp> I knew it!
15:57:10 <sbp> also, you may not have heard about the sexual terrorist attack on children
15:57:17 <sbp> perpetrated by 4chan and now in the national news
15:57:48 <sbp> they spliced together a bunch of childrens' videos (Hannah Montana, the Jonas Brothers, etc.) with hardcore porn. then they uploaded thousands of these videos to Youtube
15:57:55 <sbp> people started tagging them and rating them up and so on
15:58:06 <sbp> then it all went predictably media-shaped
15:58:13 <[bjoern]> I heard them planning taking over youtube a few days ago
15:58:23 <sbp> ah, there you go then. well they did it
15:58:26 <sbp> huge condemnation from BBC News
15:58:36 <sbp> but the funniest thing on BBC News was their caption, which was like:
15:58:46 <sbp> "Content violates Youtube terms of use."
15:58:53 <sbp> which was a mex2chox thing

16:08:25 <clsn> Dammit, how do I tell apache to *accept* a PUT request???
16:09:08 <sbp> clsn: enable mod_put?
16:09:22 <sbp> also you need to add some crap doing accept,deny
16:09:52 <[bjoern]> Limit / LimitExcept
16:10:03 <clsn> The implication in the docs is that everything is allowed by default if there is no LIMIT...
16:10:07 <sbp> <Limit PUT>
16:10:08 <sbp>    allow from all
16:10:08 <sbp> </Limit>
16:10:17 <sbp> clsn: I don't think that's true in the case of PUT
16:11:39 <sbp> (incidentally, I somehow managed to hit Tab whilst doing Command+W on a bunch of Safari tabs, and so I nuked my leftmost X-Chat Aqua tab, which is of course #swhack)
16:13:27 <clsn> Yeah, I just tried the same construction you're suggesting, waiting to see if it works.
16:13:51 <clsn> Damn!
16:13:58 <[bjoern]> the default configuration of your server may very well have limit
16:13:59 <clsn> Unless it doesn't count because it's in the .htaccess.
16:14:12 <clsn> No, there's no Limit in the config, I looked.
16:14:19 <[bjoern]> all files?
16:14:26 Arnia (n=jgeldart@0-25-bc-20-94-db.it.wlan.dur.ac.uk) has joined #swhack
16:16:46 <[bjoern]> heh re latest change http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/httpd/httpd/trunk/docs/conf/httpd.conf.in?view=log - he actually did when I told em he did not make the change back in feb
16:17:16 <[bjoern]> so in a few years we'll see lots of content-type less content on the web
16:19:44 <clsn> Yeah, all files... I put it in now, and it STILL isn't helping.
16:20:33 <Monty2> [bjoern]: You asked me to remind you to !!!!!!!
16:21:32 <clsn> Argh!!
16:21:33 <Monty2> her of traffic on an idea of course #swhack)
16:22:54 <[bjoern]> Well so change the limit then
16:23:00 <clsn> I did.
16:23:17 <[bjoern]> and what do you get on put?
16:23:20 <[bjoern]> what is in the error log?
16:23:42 <clsn> I put in a <Limit PUT> Allow from all</Limit> in the relevant directories.  No error, just the access log indicates that it's sending back a 405.
16:23:56 <clsn> Oh, and I did a reload on the dæmon.
16:24:07 <[bjoern]> in a .htaccess?
16:24:18 <[bjoern]> do those dirs have AllowOverride?
16:24:32 <clsn> No, in the actual http.conf just in case it didn't allow from an .htaccess.
16:24:32 <[bjoern]> as in, do .htaccess files work there at all?
16:24:36 <[bjoern]> i see
16:24:39 <sbp> in a penis, in a robot
16:25:06 <clsn> .htaccess files DO work there, I have confirmed, for at least some things.  But once it whined about something that had to be in the actual config file.
16:25:57 <[bjoern]> what do you use as put handler?
16:26:33 <[bjoern]> what is the Order directive in scope of your <limits>?
16:26:36 <clsn> (actually it's in .htaccess AND the conf file).  It's a mod_python thing.  But it isn't even being called.  It does get activated if I do a GET there, but the PUT doesn't even touch it.
16:27:11 <clsn> Not sure, I don't think I specified an Order.  If I put one in there would it help?  presumably Order allow, deny, right before the Allow from all?
16:27:25 <[bjoern]> something like that
16:28:02 <[bjoern]> you could also try <LimitExcept GRABS>allow from all</LimitExcept> for a change...
16:28:04 <clsn> Oh, looks like there's an Order allow, deny in the <Directory> block a little above the Limit already.
16:28:45 <clsn> Meh.  If PUT isn't allowed by default, messing with some other method and counting on it to open up "everything else" sounds a lot less reliable than saying "ALLOW THIS ONE DAMMIT."
16:29:15 <[bjoern]> but then you are desperate.
16:30:21 <clsn> There is that.  I just added an Order to the .htaccess file Just In Case that's what mattered.
16:32:03 <clsn> Damn.
16:32:11 <[bjoern]> There is always #apache
16:33:14 <[bjoern]> man google is trying to google suggest all the time now, which is super annoying. causes the "loading/done" icon to flicker like hell, and it no longer properly accepts enter for form submission

17:57:21 <xodium> Well, it tries to auto-scroll, but, yeah, you can't scroll the chat.
17:57:47 <sbp> I'd think that would be third on my list of required features
17:57:55 <sbp> after 1) sends text. 2) receives text
17:57:57 <[bjoern]> my client autoscrolls to the bottom each time somebody says something
17:58:08 <[bjoern]> which makes copying from the backlog interesting
17:58:13 <xodium> So probably around beta 3 then you recon?
17:58:33 <sbp> who's it made by, Mozilla?
17:58:52 <xodium> heh heh
17:59:08 <[bjoern]> Careful, or i give you some mozilla.
18:00:00 <sbp> sounds like a very tasty cheese
18:00:04 <sbp> or a very crappy browser
18:00:05 <xodium> Heh. It also lets you add nicks as contacts.
18:01:06 <xodium> Weird.
18:01:23 <xodium> Oh, it just acquired a scroll-bar!
18:01:58 <xodium> This might actually be a marginally useful feature.
18:04:06 <sbp> was there an option for it?
18:05:14 <xodium> No, there just wasn't enough text in the scrollback before. The previous perceived lack was due to some scrolling glitch where the bottom of the text was outside the viewport.
18:05:54 <sbp> you're saying we're not verbose enough?
18:06:08 <xodium> Hmm. And combining contacts across multiple networks (MSN, Jabber, IRC) looks quite handy.
18:06:31 <sbp> hey, Jabber. you could talk to [bjoern] on that
18:06:47 <xodium> Or you, if you ever started your Google Talk client.
18:06:53 <sbp> heh, heh
18:07:14 <sbp> I don't think there is one for OS X
18:07:20 <sbp> I just used Adium, as far as I recall
18:07:27 <sbp> and I uninstalled that ages ago when I needed some space

18:46:16 <sbp> man, our Home Secretary is such a comedy act
18:46:31 <sbp> there's a police database of numberplates picked up by CCTV

18:46:50 <sbp> so the BBC interviewed the Information Commissioner
18:46:59 <sbp> and he said it's unregulated, they have no control over it
18:47:22 <sbp> the police basically aren't being held to account for it
18:47:38 <sbp> so then they interviewed the Home Secretary, and asked her what controls there are over it
18:47:44 <sbp> and she said the police are subject to the law
18:47:49 <sbp> and that they're regulated by...
18:47:56 <sbp> you guessed it, the Information Commissioner!
18:48:08 <sbp> and the interviewer mentions that they've spoken to him, and he doesn't seem to think so...g
18:48:21 <sbp> and she said "oh and we could bring in extra legislation if need be..."
18:48:38 <sbp> our Home Secretary: good comedy

19:38:33 <sbp> man, Andrew MacKay is funny too
19:38:46 <sbp> he's arguing with one of his constituents about how many people were clapping for him
19:38:55 <sbp> at a meeting arranged by the local Conservatives
19:39:21 <sbp> he's still saying it. he's saying it again and again
19:39:28 <sbp> and people are heckling him in the background
19:40:58 <sbp> BBC reporter was there for almost the whole meeting, said that people seemed mostly hostile
19:41:04 <sbp> that they weren't happy with the answers, etc.

19:42:12 <sbp> the local Conservatives are holding a meeting, he hasn't turned up
19:42:27 <sbp> David Cameron's warned him over saying that people are just jealous
19:42:40 <sbp> jealous of his house, which he compared to Balmoral (one of the Queen's residences)
19:43:16 <sbp> the expenses row has turned out to be pretty great in a way
19:43:27 <sbp> people are actually learning what complete berks some MPs are
19:45:45 <sbp> somewhat disappointing that not all are coming under scrutiny though, only the ones who obviously did stupid things. they'd probably find that some of the expenses-twisting MPs are actually nicer than the "clean" ones
