:wrote significant production code for the first time in a week:

Michael Petrotta

has not written production code since being named "architect" for his team. Who could have seen that coming?

:wishes it was warm, and he was on the beach of a nice calm lake, with a beach chair and his laptop:

"Nobody in their right mind would ever do that" should be a vote-to-close reason on #StackExchange

Nah. It should just be a common comment or answer.

Tim Stone

@RebeccaChernoff Hmmm it seems like they may have fixed the bug.

Which is good since it prevents me from having to figure out how to report it. :P

Rebecca Chernoff

could you be a bit more specific?

Tim Stone

...No.

Sorry, the JavaScript bug that was impacting livequery.

"the bug"! How much more information do you need?

Rebecca Chernoff

ah (;

Tim Stone

It seems to be fixed in the latest dev release on account of them updating V8 yet again.

Yeah, that was terribly unclear, my bad :P

Rebecca Chernoff

Hehe

Tim Stone

I think it might have been fixed as part of an unrelated (?) bug, but I'm too unfamiliar with the code to know for sure.

You'd know better than me. (:

Ugh, I really need to stop playing Portal.

Dan Grossman

Nah, beat it first, it's a short game.

Tim Stone

It is, and I did. I was playing the other maps. But for whatever reason, Valve games seem to make me nauseous.

ChrisF

Are you sitting quite close to your monitor?

Tim Stone

Portal more so on account of it being so disorienting...

Q: How can I prevent Gaming Sickness?

Some gamers call me a wimp, but games like Spyro send me reeling and running for the bathroom in a matter of minutes. I get a massive headache, nausea, and sick to my stomach. I can play Portal, Ape Escape, Ico, Shadow of the Collosseus for longer. I think the problem has to do with the free-floa...
