        luks: haha, odd
      • pronik
        of all things, perl is probably one of the best things that could happen to me on the job
      • even better would be haskell, lisp or something similar, but those job offers are extremely rare
      • luks
        those jobs are at universities :)
      • pronik
        mostly, yes
      • and if I'm not mistaken, I would have hit the top salary for a university position in a couple of years
      • however, I'm really curious what google is going to do to ITA
      • they've got enough smart people NOT to make a complete rewrite in something like java
      • luks
        the've got ENOUGH smart people... :)
      • pronik
        that too

        whoo, MC Frontalot cover of Paparazzi (released twelve minutes ago) now in musicbrainz
      • ruaok
        swift! :-)
      • ianmcorvidae
        he released it via twitter as a result of getting 10000 followers, thus :P
      • it's in the IRC window just below this one ;)
      • nikki
        the irc window below this one for me is #musicbrainz-devel :P
      • ianmcorvidae
        ah
      • that one's behind this one ;) (or perhaps 'right of this one', since my irssi bindings let me get to it with alt-right)
      • navap
        And then there's me where almost the entire monitor shows only one window :)
      • ianmcorvidae
        heh
      • I can't deal with that little information flow ;)
      • nikki
        well technically it's only the tab that's below the tab for this one
      • but in my mind that makes the entire thing below this one, like a stack of paper
      • ianmcorvidae
        ah
      • thus
      • by your meaning of 'below', mb-devel is below this window too, lol
      • nikki
        :D
      • CatCat
        I have mine in tabs
      • navap
        I only just have room for one channel and a notification area up top on this puny monitor :(
      • ianmcorvidae
        oh :( that is a shame
      • navap
        But if I move putty to my other monitor it gets hidden underneath everything.
      • nikki maximises everything and command tabs a hell of a lot
      • ianmcorvidae tiling window manager
      • ianmcorvidae
        so four windows on this screen (one of which is irssi, with five subwindows)
      • but otherwise everything is basically just maximized
      • nikki
        which one do you use?
      • ianmcorvidae
        stumpwm
      • better known as "that one written in common lisp"
      • nikki
        ah, not heard of that one
      • ianmcorvidae
        it's the successor to ratpoison
      • which you may have heard of
      • nikki
        yeah
      • ianmcorvidae
        it's basically what happened when the guy writing ratpoison was like "oh hey this stuff I'm doing would be way easier in lisp, funny that"
      • (compared to C, this is probably true; it's sort of neat that one could ostensibly reprogram their entire WM while it's running with stump)
      • nikki
        bah... it's been far too long since I used linux as my main desktop...
      • ianmcorvidae
        in any case
      • heh
      • what do you use nowadays?
      • er, command-tab
      • mac
      • lol
      • nikki
        :)
      • well I got the macbook and it was faster than my linux computer so I used it more
      • ianmcorvidae
        fair enough
      • nikki
        then I got an eee because it was cute, but it's still not faster than my macbook and the screen's not big enough anyway
      • ianmcorvidae
        I just have my quasi-server-desktop-amalgamation and a netbook which I use as a remote-via-ssh interface to it
      • nikki
        heh, I spend a lot of time sshed to various linux machines, but my desktop is still osx :/
      • ianmcorvidae
        yep
      • ruaok
        +1 on that nikki.
      • and tomorrow I'll move to a mac pro with a 30" monitor at the office. :)
      • nikki
        ¬_¬
      • nikki wants a big monitor
      • ianmcorvidae
        those monitors are nice, heh
      • ruaok
        I've been wanting one for years.
      • ianmcorvidae just wants a second monitor, mostly
      • nikki
        ooh
      • ruaok
        I have two 19" monitors.
      • one is for IRC/chat.
      • the other one for 6 expose spaces.
      • ianmcorvidae
        heh
      • if I got a second it would probably be IRC || everything eles
      • else*
      • ruaok
        ianmcorvidae: yep, works great.
      • nikki digs out the monitor for her other computer...
      • ianmcorvidae
        I'd have to switch to weechat or something, for vertical splitting of IRC windows
      • jensl joined the channel
      • (proper space utilization and all)
      • navap
        Or have multiple copies of irssi running in vertical screen windows.
      • ianmcorvidae
        potentially
      • I have too many things on freenode for that to really work; though... I'd have to have two connections to freenode and that's just no good :P
      • although, hm, perhaps
      • jensl has left the channel
      • coolkehon joined the channel
      • mr_maxis joined the channel
      • Muz
        navap: why would you run multiple copies of irssi in split screen, when you can split irssi?
      • Or when you can have split irssi in split screen tabs
      • Yo dawg, I herd you like splits.
      • navap
        Vertical splits?
      • Muz
        Heathen talk.
      • Horizontal splits and the world's a happy place.
      • FauxFaux
        FUUUUUU
