Hehe... it's a Joke program It's not mine though It's the unios.org ppl's UniOS.org is not affilated with UniOS Project you sure? :) they're both kinda vaporware at this point, no? Hehe, yep that's true :) well, actually, they have 20 lines of code I'm begining to think I'm a vaporware programmer :) I'll have to put that on my resume ;) Yeah, and their OS works perfectly... it does everything they want it to do 04:40pm * eihrul/#tunes ponders... It's entire purpose is to boot up and display a message "SCSI device not found" vaporware programmers would always make perfect creations since they'd never break they'd have absolutely no bugs they'd never crash :) Yes they would. And their ideas cannot be refuted. * Beholder/#tunes thinks he'll write a book: "Learn how to program Vaporware in 21 days" you could use Tunes as a case study you could make it like a Tanenbaum book Not just Tunes, many projects are like us. full of lots of dense information, that effectively says nothing Hehe :) then write a sequel, that uses the same first 600 pages then has 5 pages of new info tacked on Hehe, well, would you publish it? I'm willing to write it :) don't know of any publishers, plus i'm just a youngin' So what vaporware have you written lately? sadly i've implemented at least part of most of my designs i haven't made much vaporware lately although i planned a tetris clone once, that never frutitioned :) Yeah I had one of those too :) Mine was almost done... did it in VB. It was quite good But with VB there was speed issues... I should look into how to optimize it... * Beholder/#tunes want's to write another book: "Beholder's Inferal Quest: A how-to guide for optimizing Visual Basic" 04:50pm indeed * Beholder/#tunes is a VB programmer by profession... knows VB... understands VB... and because of this CAN KILL THE BEAST!!.... hehe everyone i've ever talked to says vb eats shit to put it bluntly IMPO: It does... but it's a "cprporate golden-boy" bleh who would learn a language just so they could make money off it that is absurd IMPO: That's all it's good for... what other reason would ppl use it? uh to create because it is knowledge i did not take computer science as a major in school to get a job i got it to learn as much as i could in the field i think he's referring to visual basic in particular not his general outlook on all languages he learns well if you only pick something up to become a pegboy for corporate lust that is your decision Yeah. I learn other langs for knowlege... I'm not gonna make money off Python or Lisp ;) you could IMPO: Business needs to be here... business needs solutions to their problems. I provide that as a profession. I see no issue with what tool I use, so long as they are willing to pay for it. and when companies eventually stop using microsoft products where will visual basic be and all those people who only know that one language and anyone who does not think microsoft will eventually go down i remind them of standard oil IMPO: They're screwed... and it's their own fault for not expanding their knowlege... 05:00pm good i hope they are all unemployed 20 years down the line IMPO: That's not nice to say... some people just don't know any better... it's not their fault it's the "MS Marketing Machine" that's done it to em... 05:10pm -:- fire [no@209-68-229-239.dialup.cust.tfb.com] has joined #tunes beholder: long time no see (you remember hickserv) hmm... air, fire and water... all we need is an earth now I guess Yep I do, hey hick :) what happened to standard oil? uh it was broken up Fare: I thought it became Esso or Texaco or something :) beholder: how come no updates on unios? fire: Nothing new to report I guess. kinda like tunes (fare: :P) fire: Anything you'd like me to report? :) what's the name of the tycoon who built standard oil? rockafeller or something i can't spell it rockefeller yes john d. Ahh, yeah I've heard about that... US history isn't my strong point. That was standard oil? yes beholder: funny that...im not all that up on canadian history ;) canada has history? Isn't he the one who said he'd rather have 15% of a gigantic empire than 100% of a small company? who knows IMPO: We had some people who liked the crown, and they said, "Hey! Canada sounds like a cool name, lets make a country"... now you know... he gave the equivalency of 9 billion dollars in donations to public charities yes unfortunately some of your kin ran back into our country we call them cajuns ... am i wrong? heh when i was in louisiana i saw a film at a state park on the cajuns their name originates from acadia IMPO: Actually a whole friggen province is looking at joining you guys... we'd be happy to have em :) i say we enslave them and populate the land IMPO: actually cajuns were there before the country was made part of the US... but they are from acadia be: quebec does what now? join the US? which is what is now known as part of canada Fare: Yes they were... Long live the French!!! if it is quebec well fuck it we don't want their scum we almost owned quebec in the revolutionary war Tril: They mention it every once in a while... that and joining france... Tril: And becoming a free country (dumb idea) one of our generals was hit by a stray cannon ball and the yankees were obliterated -:- Kaufmann [Kaufmann@dial596.infolink.com.br] has joined #tunes B: does quebec alraedy have its own currency? sieging the main fortress i say we enslave brazil A-ha! annex and enslave IMPO: Stray?! That was my grandpappy!! :) hehe 05:20pm well then either he lived a damn long time Tril: Nope, they're still on Canadian currency at the moment or you are rather old * Kaufmann/#tunes catches fire and his subversive colleagues before they are able to carry out their evil master plan :) * fire/#tunes HUG lol... "catches fire" i think we should not interfere with any other country ever I swear, that was completely unintentional well if quebec wants to join they better switch entirely to english IMPO: I think Canada would like it if there was some interference if we were being attcked by something ;) I think the notion of countries as autonomous entities is more trouble than it's worth haha who would ever attack canada ever seen canadian bacon? an angry mass of rabid beavers and owls maybe the movie michael moore is a genius i cannot see how he has never won an oscar not even for roger and me beholder: coordinate me you big coordinator you pretty soon every 5 square miles of land will want to be their own nation I really think that where I choose to live should be the concern of no one other than me, unless, say, I choose to set up place in the middle of their farm or something of the sort... but under normal circumstances, I don't think that my right to travel and to take residence should be hindered by some arbitrary boundary. fire: I couldn't coordinate gum chewing... hehe fire: that was done before... by Portugal well yes of course and spain did that to the rest of south and central america 5 square miles is a big-ass piece of land not really my city is about that big the US did not enslave the indians; just genocide them. heh not all of them just most of them well, almost all of them i have indian blood there's still a small fraction of the various tribes left the indians want new york back now Fare: Canada was nice to thier Indians... used them and gave em some nice swamp land no fire just manhattan fire: a little late, no? oh yes well no time like the present they did a much much better work than Hitler against the jews: the few remaining indians can but shut up they have no case to take it back IMPO, well, for my standards it's a big-ass piece of land. I mean, think about how much processing power or mag. storage we can already cram into a few milimeters... see their point about manhattan Beh: Canada fought its indians harshly until the late 20th century is that they gave it up because they did not have any concept of land ownership but to take manhattan away would mean that they wanted to own it the last anti-indian laws in Canada were abolished in the 1970's, I think we should legislate anti-canadian laws A computer with 5 square miles of area would probably provide to the entire world's computing needs for a good time (barring networking issues, of course). IMPO: Why not? only allow employees of saturday night live into the country IMPO: We gave them a whole provice recently... Kaufman: who'd administrate it? Microsoft? US law should make it so that the only law that applys to indians is that no other US law applys to them give them the whole country Fare: subtelty, ocassionally you pass some legislation with loop holes that gives them hope but allows politicians to effectively do more damage... give them a reservation but right in the middle of a heavily populated and expanding state :) provice=province US law seems to apply to everything these days or mabye indians shouldn't be taxed Fare, yeah... it'll probably already /take/ 5 miles worth of HD space for Win2K to install :) fire: US law should make so that the US abide by treaties it signed with indian tribes i tried win2k when beta 3 came out i was glad to see that it didn't support winmodems ironically * Fare/#Tunes has a hell of a trouble configuring ipchains trouble = time * fire/#tunes continues to mentor fare is american slang the US doesn't want you configuring ipchains 05:30pm in rather there is no other explanation * Beholder/#tunes uses NAT and doens't worry about ipchains Beh: freesbie? Fare: Yep I'll be back in a second fare: have you even gotten anyone together to work on the HLL? i like how forth is similar to the english language like if you give a word a value you use it like an adjective to a noun IMPO, yeah, /very/ similar... 5 4 + 3 + 1 + BRB not in math idiot i mean like for changing attributes like if i want something blue like a background goto(HELL); :) i'd say "blue background" which makes sense in english -:- SignOff Kaufmann: #TUNES ("Jesus would make a good main character for a Seinfeld spinoff" - Amber) instead of giving everything an enumeration and putting it as a parameter more like "background blue" IMPO: not really... what about a blue background? uh blue background in forth what exactly are you doing with the blue background? your statement doesn't explicitly say that is how you make the background blue CHANGING THE BACKGROUND TO BLUE no IMPO: in doze9x, it's easy blue stores the number value of blue on the stack forth is rpn and background calls it IMPO: just move the mouse, or do something complex, and you'll get a blue background! lol is no one listening IMPO: what is wrong with: set_background (blue) ? i am saying it passes parameters first which is no more natural than passing them after it is not natural when thinking in terms of regular speech * Beholder/#tunes is wondering why everyone uses Linux... -:- Kaufmann [Kaufmann@dial468.infolink.com.br] has joined #tunes you can warp your english interpretation to fit the language you do not say to someone "look at that dog red big" in spanish you do IMPO: That makes more sense... I think french is that way well i do not speak spanish nor french mira a aquel perro rojo y grande so what do i care Beholder, it's like I say... "UNIX is the worst possible choice, except for all others" bb in 30 so saying natural language is incorrect saying its inconsistent with the english language might be, but the english language isn't consistent anyway so who cares? Kaufmann: Hehehe, I like that one it seems like a case of arguing which is the better reading orientation? right-to-left? or left-to-right? it's almost arbitrary.... little endian or big endian? eihrul: Isn't there always a more logical choice? 05:40pm yeah, eliminate nouns and adjectives eihrul: And a more accepted choice -:- SignOff fire: #TUNES (Ping timeout for fire[209-68-229-239.dialup.cust.tfb.com]) olhe aquele cão vermelho e grande And now, in Jive Jive?
