@DavidCowden That's perfectly fine.

@dash that's perfect, exactly what I'm looking for. Thanks!

Test test on chrome ios

Works for me.

Yay, thanks @balpha! Now I don't have to carry on my clearly empty promise of trying to script around that. Everyone go give him some up vote love.

how would you have approached that scripting anyway?

That may have had something to do with why I hadn't done it yet. >_>

Even if I had figured that part out in a way that would have worked reliably, storing the preferences and stuff meant figuring out something better than local storage...it was going to be a mess, and probably not a successful one. But as usual I was overly optimistic, heh.

Hmmm, 30 days still seems rather excessive, but it's better than nothing I guess

@TimYiJiang Yeah, but leaving the room works as well, right?

(after you wait 7 days)

Unless you've said something, then it's 30

Oh, wait, logic fail

INTERESTING==(LESS THAN 30 DAYS SPOKE) OR (LESS THAN 7 DAYS IN ROOM)
--> NOT INTERESTING==(MORE THAN 30 DAYS SPOKE) AND (MORE THAN 7 DAYS IN ROOM)

Hmm. I have an urge to do something in a new language, but I can't decide what language to look at or what kind of (web)?app to do. ):

Which languages are new, to you?

...You should write something that scans the chat logs and generates a concrete to-do list for me...in Haskell.

Oy

I think it's an excellent idea. :P

Alternatively, you could try the MVC framework we use at work...

playframework.org

Lets make it simple and say if it isn't c#/html/js(/sql server), it is either new enough, been long enough, or I've not done enough for it to count for now

We write Java code, but the 2.0 version has native support for writing apps in Scala, which might be cool.

First you want me to manage your todo list, then you conveniently want me to learn the framework you use at work...

I am detecting a pattern here...

Just trying to stay productive ;)

But the second suggestion was more serious, because it is a pretty nifty framework, and Scala seems cool (but I haven't really tried to use it)

Try learning Python?

Whitespace!

Ah, now that's a language worth learning!

Pro-tip: less time trying to get me to do your stuff, more time actually doing it!

Also, my guest has been abnormally tired too...I'm beginning to think someone's drugging my air.

@RebeccaChernoff Yeah, I think it's going to take more than a pro-tip for me to overcome my complete disdain towards said stuff. :P

But I will work on DE and election stuff...after I get a hair cut. Which I will go do now. Assuming the town has power.

The same thunderstorm that's affecting AWS is also affecting you? :P

Yeah

> The National Weather Service issued an excessive heat warning through Sunday for eastern Missouri, including St. Louis, where temperatures are expected to soar up to 106 this weekend.

Yeah, programming something new instead of going outside sounds like a good idea :P

@TimYiJiang Apparently two people were killed by falling trees a state or so south of me. Lots of people without power too...but my air conditioning is going strong at the moment, so it's all good.

@TimStone 109 Thursday, 107 Friday...we'll stay above 100 til Tuesday.

notice how I'm hiding inside and programming? (;

At the moment it's only 31 C here (which is just under 90 if my brain's done the conversion right)

Still pretty muggy though. I'm hoping it cools down soon, not a big fan of the heat...

Power just went out for a minute, very uncool. shakes fist

@RebeccaChernoff why not try PHP?

Har har

I hear Jeff Atwood is planning something new to replace PHP, though.

I hear it's a Wasabi interpreter written in PHP. Wasabi for the language beauty, PHP for the easy deployment

@DiscountGucciHandbags have never done a full php project, but I have written a WP theme and plugins...so let's call that good enough, eh? (;

How much Rep does one need to be able to migrate a question from another SE site to SO? And where should the user have that minimum rep, on the source site or the destination?

WOW, what a fiddle! well done @yijiang.

cover me, I'm going in! (win8 in a vm)

Stand by to initiate release sequencer. On my mark. Five. Four.

We're on an express elevator to hell; going down!

@RebeccaChernoff In a VM? Uhm, that's... courageous... like "I'm playing GTA and I don't even have a driver's license"

lol

I meant more like, it's fun having to search on the internet to figure out how to do something "normal" (;

Do you guys know of some userscript that'd allow using StakcExchange-style keyboard shortcuts for editing MarkDown (especially Ctrl-K and Ctrl-B and Ctrl-I) on any website (especially WordPress)?

@balpha You're supposed to have a driver's license? I thought the whole point of GTA was to aimlessly drive around in the tank you unlock at the end and blow stuff up...

Err, can suggested edits mutate?

stackoverflow.com/suggested-edits/303901

was quite different when I rejected it.

@DanielFischer Users can still make any modifications they want as long as the edit is still pending, even if someone has voted to approve/reject it already.
