01:48 Pilcrow looking a little at haskell, the functions have no "end"s... which I assume means that the language is entirely dependant on proper indentation. that feels backwards to me; I've always liked languages where the whitespace is ignored. a newline, a space, and a tab should all be treated the same, imo. that's one thing I like very much about lua...  :P
01:49 est yes, just like me
01:49 est I hate the ABC creep
01:50 Pilcrow not sure what you mean by ABC creep
01:50 est I'm not sure wasnt ABC the one that introduced this?
01:52 Pilcrow shows how much I know; I didn't even know there was a programming language called ABC...  :P
01:56 frecel joined #minetest
01:56 Pilcrow I think it's hard to read something that opens and has no visible close other than by position, anyway. makes my brain go bleah... still better than going the xhtml rout though; can you imagine if we ended our if-statements with </if>  :P
01:57 Pilcrow s/  :P/?  :P/
01:57 kahrl still better than <!--#endif -->
01:57 kahrl ;)
01:57 Pilcrow haha
01:58 kahrl (that's SSI)
01:58 Pilcrow that's horrible lol
02:01 VanessaE_ joined #minetest
02:01 Pilcrow SSI is odd anyway though... a language that exists within another language's comments? yo dawg...

04:00 Zeno` joined #minetest
04:07 Pilcrow sofar, which mobs mod are you using? there are like 4 that use the same namespace, so I gotta ask, lol.
04:22 sofar Pilcrow: I didn't configure it, couldn't see how to, so it's running in default config?
04:23 sofar Pilcrow: oh sorry, misread
04:23 sofar Pilcrow: git://github.com/tenplus1/mobs
04:23 prozacgod joined #minetest
04:32 Pilcrow sofar: that's an odd error... do you have the latest version (commited 13 hours ago)?
04:33 sofar I git updated earlier, that crash was after I restarted the server after the git pull
04:33 sofar mind you, it had the error before the update too
04:35 sofar it appears the api.lua crashes in both line 812 and 815, not sure why, didn't read the code
04:35 sofar huh, that only makes sense if "self" is nil
04:36 sofar and it should indeed crash much earlier then
04:36 Pilcrow that's why it's confusing me too.
04:36 frecel joined #minetest
04:37 sofar I had to disable it since it constantly crashed while I was playing with my son
04:37 sofar will maybe try later again
04:37 sofar afk for a bit
04:38 Pilcrow sofar: I'm still looking through the code some more. I may be able to help...  :P

04:45 Zeno` All in all you're just another brick in the wall
04:45 est ?
04:45 Zeno` just singin'
04:46 Zeno` sofar, how do I make it crash?
04:46 * Zeno` bashes a sheep mercilessly
04:46 Zeno` i will eat you my furry little friend
04:47 Zeno` yucky sheep
04:47 Zeno` must have been old
04:49 Pilcrow lol Zeno`... awesome song, btw. I LOVE Pink Floyd, especially the whole The Wall album...
04:52 Pilcrow Zeno`: the only cause I can think of is that the mob somehow got removed in the middle of its execution instead of waiting until it's done... the offending line just says "self.pause_timer = r", which would only cause an "attempt to index a nil value" error if self does not exist... but that doesn't seem to make sense, as the previous line also accesses self and doesn't cause an error...
04:53 Zeno` doesn't seem to crash for me
04:54 Zeno` Hey! Pilcrow! Leave them mobs alone
04:54 Pilcrow lol, Zeno`, I'm only trying to help...  :P
04:54 Zeno` just singin'
04:55 Pilcrow lol
04:56 Pilcrow times like this, I wish irc had msn-style emoticons; your lines could really use music notes around them...  ;)

04:58 est yaay
04:59 est Pilcrow, visit this page with a more or less modern browser: http://irc.minetest.ru/minetest/2015-04-07
05:00 Zeno` like lynx
05:00 est telnet is enough too
05:01 Pilcrow est, I'm in my most "modern" browser right now: using webchat in Opera 12.16. I don't have Firefox or Chrome/chromium installed...
05:01 est just dont use netcat
05:01 Zeno` telnet?!
05:01 Zeno` Opera Winfrey?
05:02 * Pilcrow facepalms at Zeno`
05:03 Zeno` I wonder if web browser shows that up heheh
05:03 Pilcrow it shows up, but what is a ctcp?
05:04 Zeno` secret
05:04 Zeno` client to client protocol
05:05 Zeno` /ctcp Zeno- TIME
05:06 DMackey joined #minetest
05:07 est Zeno`, http://pasteboard.co/2nAHmSql.png
05:08 Pilcrow Zeno`: I have no idea what you're doing or what's going on. I have next to zero knowledge of IRC. heck, I can't even figure out how to use a client application! I have KVirc installed, but can't get it to connect to #minetest, so I've been using the webchat instead...  :/
05:08 Zeno` est, you didn't do the handshake properly
05:08 est http://pasteboard.co/2nAL3QeB.png
05:08 est why?
05:08 Zeno` oh sorry
05:08 Zeno` thought you were connecting to the irc server
05:09 est no
05:13 ZenoZeno- joined #minetest
05:13 ZenoZeno- hello
05:14 ZenoZeno- infuriating
05:14 VanessaE_ oh shit, now there's three of them!
05:14 Pilcrow lol
05:14 ZenoZeno- have
05:15 Zeno` too hard
05:15 VanessaE_ ?
05:15 Zeno` I dunno who would use telnet to chat on IRC
05:15 Pilcrow aww, /nick doesn't support unicode symbols...
05:15 Zeno` trying to keep up with the PINGS and the PONGS is very annoying
05:16 Pilcrow I was going to call myself ⁋, since that is the literary symbol that is my namesake (i.e. the symbol ⁋ is called a pilcrow)...  :(
05:16 Zeno` :sinisalo.freenode.net 401 ZenoZeno- #mintest :No such nick/channel     <--- no idea what caused that
05:17 Zeno` oh
05:17 Zeno` typo
05:17 Zeno` heh
05:18 est * 💩 :Erroneous Nickname
05:18 est shitty plan it was
05:18 Pilcrow oops. actually ¶ is a pilcrow, not ⁋
05:22 Zeno` lol
05:22 VanessaE_ if the former is a pilcrow, what's the latter?
05:22 Pilcrow I'm not sure....  XD
05:23 VanessaE_ *holds up a mirror*
05:23 VanessaE_ there, now both are pilcrows.
05:24 Pilcrow lol. I just looked it up. apparently the latter is just called a reverse pilcrow....  :P
05:24 VanessaE_ heh
05:29 Pilcrow well, Zeno`, I can't seem to figure out how sofar's problem could have happened. maybe you have some insight?
05:30 Zeno` nope, none :(
05:34 Pilcrow aww, my browser doesn't support any unicode Thai characters! either that, or I just don't have an available font installed...  :P
05:35 Pilcrow https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thai_alphabet has TONS of rectangles for me, lol
05:36 est works well fore me
05:38 Pilcrow est: what browser are you using, if I may ask?
05:38 Pilcrow also s/fore/for/   ;)
05:38 est firefox
05:39 Pilcrow ah. I used to like firefox, but it's gotten progressively worse. in my other computer, firefox is so slow and crashes so often, I installed opera just to have something useable...  :/
05:48 sofar Pilcrow: you know why mobs crashes for me? figured it out?
05:49 Pilcrow sorry, sofar. the bug doesn't seem to make sense and I can't figure it out...  :/
05:49 sofar np
05:51 Pilcrow oh, actually, sofar, one quick thing: it's a long shot, but do me a favor and try commenting out the check_for_death(self) on line 786.
05:51 sofar paying some bills first :)
05:53 Pilcrow ok. just a heads-up, though, I don't think it will work. just a shot in the dark, lol.

06:35 est there is a register command for privs
06:36 est minetest.register_privilege(name, definition)
06:37 sofar euh, must have been looking in an old lua_api.txt :(
06:44 Pilcrow goodnight, guys, I gotta go to bed.

17:04 Hijiri what if erlang was the mod language
17:04 Hijiri then I'd have some motivation to learn erlang
17:05 Hijiri you send messages to some minetest actors instead of invoking methods on a global minetest object
17:06 Hijiri and of course you would get pattern matching

18:57 ShadowNinja So I changed somaphores from always using a *global* mutex lock on OSX to only using a local one if you're using OSX without C++11 with something other than a (not-so-)recent GCC (Feb 2006 or later).  It should also use atomic ops on semi-recent Clang, but I haven't found a way to check for the __sync_ family of functions on LLVM.

21:05 Hijiri is there a mod ideas forum for the creatively bankrupt
21:05 Hijiri or does that just go in feature discussion
21:06 kahrl there's a stickied thread for it in modding discussion
21:07 Hijiri thanks
21:07 Hijiri I have a bad habit of ignoring announcements and stickies
21:08 Hijiri unless I specifically expect what I'm looking for to be an announcement or sticky

22:28 Etzos This is probably a stupid question but why is it that mods aren't versioned? And tangentially, why is there no way to specify conflicts explicitly?
22:30 Hijiri might be cool to have a package manager / repository
22:31 xenkey Mine-get install
22:31 xenkey Mineman -S
22:31 xenkey Mineoo emerge
22:32 Etzos That's the reason I was asking.
22:32 Etzos I was thinking of building a system for doing that kind of thing.
22:32 xenkey Feel free
22:32 xenkey But you need a 'repo'
22:33 xenkey I'd be interested in this too
22:33 Etzos Well, I'm definitely in the early idea stage at this point. Just thinking about some of the possibilities.
22:34 xenkey Try a forum crawler
22:35 xenkey Or mod db parser
22:36 xenkey I'd just go with a repo
22:36 Etzos Yeah.
22:37 xenkey And spend some hours of your life compiling the names
22:37 Etzos At least initially. :P
22:37 xenkey May I suggest an array of links to git repos and names
22:37 Etzos Ultimately I think it would be better if I just let people point to their repo or upload a zip of the mod.
22:38 Etzos As long as those include an extra file with metadata.
22:38 xenkey any other mods are pleb tier, dont bother
22:38 xenkey Etzos: nonono we already have that
22:38 Etzos Oh?
22:39 xenkey Make a cli script to fetch the package list from a server then auto clone from that
22:39 xenkey You need a repo link, friendly name, and canonical name
22:40 Etzos Oh yeah. That's easy.
22:41 xenkey Yup
22:41 xenkey What language do you plan to use?
22:41 Etzos Whatever fits my fancy. XD
22:42 xenkey Try asm for the lulz
22:42 Etzos So portable it hurts. :P
22:42 xenkey Yeah
22:42 Zeno` joined #minetest
22:42 xenkey Python would be my choice
22:42 Zeno` Shrubberies!
22:42 Etzos Yeah, that's what I was leaning towards.
22:43 xenkey Zeno`: mese cabbage
22:43 xenkey Want to work together on this one?
22:43 Zeno` It's not dead; it's just sleeping
22:44 Zeno` Working together on the shrubbery?
22:44 xenkey No it's conpiling
22:44 xenkey No
22:44 xenkey Scroll u- oh wait
22:44 Etzos xenkey: Sure.
22:44 xenkey Alright
22:45 xenkey I'm sort of sleeping now, how's tomorrow?
22:45 Etzos Tomorrow is fine.
22:45 xenkey What time zone are you in by the way?
22:45 Etzos US Eastern.
22:45 Etzos But I live more like US Pacific. 9.9
22:45 xenkey er, what's the time there? :P
22:45 Etzos Or rather, my schedule is more like US Pacific.
22:46 Etzos Current time is 18:45.
22:46 xenkey GMT-5 ?
22:47 Etzos UTC-5, yes.
22:47 xenkey there's six hours difference but that shouldn't matter
22:47 xenkey Will we need a server though?
22:48 Etzos I think I can find something if need be.
22:48 xenkey Alright, awesome
22:48 xenkey Should we base it on github?
22:48 Etzos But if all we will be pulling is a simple list, we could just use GitHub to store that. XD
22:49 xenkey Oh yeah
22:49 xenkey True
22:49 Etzos I would say git in general.
22:49 xenkey I have a bsd server with git set if if you fancy something new
22:49 Etzos Adding support for other things like hg or svn wouldn't be too difficult either.
22:50 xenkey I was thinking http for downloading the list
22:50 xenkey Perhaps even rsync
22:50 Etzos Yeah.
22:51 xenkey I'm working on a minetest netcat sort of interface at the momemt too
22:52 xenkey Works great, just my implementation of rate limiting is a bit shite
22:52 Etzos XD
22:53 xenkey http://mtcm.eu/py/minerequest/
22:54 xenkey That last commit was so constructive
22:55 Etzos Can't survive without a header. :P
22:55 xenkey Yup
22:55 xenkey Consistency is key :)
22:55 xenkey Would you be willing to use these repos for the project?
22:56 Etzos Sure.
22:56 Etzos Oh, what license do you fancy?
22:57 xenkey I'll go for whatever, licenses aren't something i've had to care about in a while
22:57 xenkey I should read up on them :P
22:57 Etzos Fair enough.
22:58 xenkey Do you by any chance use xmpp?
22:58 Etzos I use a little bit of everything. So yes. :P
22:59 xenkey Awesome, mind adding me?
23:00 Etzos xenkey: I do not mind.
23:00 xenkey Alright, my JID is mark@dotx.me
