| DystopicFro | nash: double-pong | 00:02 |
|---|---|---|
| DystopicFro | reading about text rendering algorithms | 00:02 |
| DystopicFro | o.O | 00:02 |
| DystopicFro | ahoy nash, was just about to head to sleep | 00:03 |
| nash | okay | 00:03 |
| nash | text rendering? | 00:03 |
| nash | As in layout? BOx models and the like? | 00:03 |
| DystopicFro | As in...I was just hanging out, waiting for a response to my ping, read a bit of joel on software and got lost in a related article about text rendering techniques | 00:04 |
| nash | heh ;-) | 00:05 |
| nash | Doing your midterm BTW ;-) | 00:05 |
| nash | So anything you say now counts extra ;-) | 00:05 |
| DystopicFro | which, unfortunately, I didn't really pay much attention to other than the fact that the engineers at microsoft misrepresent the position of the dots on i's | 00:05 |
| DystopicFro | ooo...that nash guy...really great guy...should be getting a stipend just like me for all he does...yeh...that's the ticket... | 00:05 |
| nash | DystopicFro: MS text rendering is real bad | 00:06 |
| nash | DystopicFro: I meant for what I was writing ;-) | 00:06 |
| nash | BUt that's good too | 00:06 |
| DystopicFro | >.< | 00:06 |
| nash | Actually my biggest beef is they don't give mentors anything but a t-shirt... | 00:06 |
| DystopicFro | well, the project got $500 per student, yeh? which means mithro got $2000? | 00:07 |
| DystopicFro | but, yeah, not entirely equal on the scales there | 00:08 |
| nash | Actually the surprise would be a better call. The cash I understand | 00:09 |
| nash | You;d say you are ahead or on schedule? | 00:11 |
| DystopicFro | I'd say I'm on schedule, though I feel a little bit ahead. | 00:12 |
| nash | Cool. | 00:13 |
| nash | Done ;-) | 00:14 |
| nash | The last question was basically: "Should we pay them?" | 00:14 |
| nash | You got you a yes ;-) | 00:14 |
| DystopicFro | w00t...>.< | 00:15 |
| nash | Have you done your bit? | 00:16 |
| DystopicFro | I hope that I'm delivering what you all expected. I feel quite proud of what I'm doing, but want to start getting involved more with the everyone in general to make sure it's really useful | 00:16 |
| DystopicFro | aye, I did my half a day or two ago | 00:16 |
| nash | Sweet | 00:17 |
| nash | DystopicFro: It's good stuff ;-) You should be proud of it. | 00:17 |
| DystopicFro | nash: thanks o.O | 00:18 |
| DystopicFro | so, right now, everything is cleaned up and functional so far as I can see | 00:19 |
| DystopicFro | I've imported the rfts stuff that I could find, though xdotx is doing some interesting stuff for generating his components on his own | 00:19 |
| DystopicFro | and now am going to start on incorporating pyscheme | 00:19 |
| nash | heh. Shame he couldn't do his project after you finished yours actually | 00:20 |
| DystopicFro | aye, but this way there's some immediate gratification a la RFTS and something to pay off in the future with more rulesets (I hope >.<) | 00:21 |
| nash | Yeah - more rulesets you play with the better | 00:22 |
| * nash wonders if you should look at Stars! or something and see how that goes... | 00:23 | |
| * DystopicFro laughs | 00:23 | |
| * DystopicFro has the feeling that he's going to be working on a new ruleset during the second half of GSoC, to get a good feel for how to refine it | 00:24 | |
| * nash likes to hear that | 00:24 | |
| DystopicFro | Well, it's the best way to gauge just how possible it is to make rulesets server-nuetral, either by abstracting more of the ruleset into TPCL code or something else | 00:26 |
| nash | I tend to agree. | 00:28 |
| nash | Makes perfect sense. | 00:28 |
| nash | And it gets you out of the toy code region pretty quickly | 00:28 |
| DystopicFro | gets a new ruleset for TP :P | 00:29 |
| DystopicFro | 45 | 00:29 |
| DystopicFro | Apparently the kitten wanted her voice heard as well. | 00:30 |
| DystopicFro | kk, I'll head off to bed then, thanks for getting the mid-term eval done, makes sure I gets paid >.< | 00:30 |
| DystopicFro | have a good one nash | 00:30 |
| nash | Night | 00:31 |
| nash | Have a good | 00:31 |
| DystopicFro | oh...34 steps per Stars! turn...fun >.< | 00:32 |
| nash | heh | 00:41 |
| nash | Have a go at the number of components and ship designs ;-) | 00:41 |
