| rindolf | peterS: I am thrigged to hear that. |
| jagerman | No, you can't. That's only one of the beauties of the inspired-by-a-real-language dialect known as internetting. Such as: "i forumed u" |
| rindolf | jagerman: same thing as far as #perl is concerned. |
| somian | jagerman ;-) |
| action | jagerman gasps |
| jagerman | gasps |
| peterS | worst verb ever: to facebook |
| rindolf | Language nazis. peterS: heh. To podcast. To blog. |
| jagerman | Since blog is an abbreviation of web log, and log is a verb, I see no problem there. Likewise for broadcast. |
| action | jagerman wins. |
| jagerman | wins. |
| peterS | podcast isn't offensive because it's a verb, it's offensive because it's a lame pun |
| jagerman | If it didn't sound so dirty, I might say that you have indeed been jagermanned. |
| somian | jagerman: go to ##c and kick Zhivago's ass now, please. |
| Moonkin | Hi, can you compare strings with spaces by simply going if($somestring eq "This is a string")? It doesn't seem to work for me :s, so I guess not |
| somian | You guess wrong, MooingLemur You guess wrong, Moonkin |
| jagerman | Someone needs to explain to me why Facebook is so popular. |
| somian | Sorry, and MOO, MooingLemur |
| jagerman | I just don't get it. |
| peterS | Moonkin: yes. you might be tripped up by the fact that if you read lines from an input stream, they will have newlines on the ends so string compares will fail on that basis |
| Moonkin | So I will have to use chomp correct? |
| jagerman | Yup. |
| Moonkin | Okay, thanks very much |
| jdog | I have a list of items and I only want to perform an operation on X number of items in that list at a time.. does anyone have a code snippet they can point me to that I can noodle, I've been trying to come up with a solution in my head and I keep getting stumpedC[C[C[C[C[C |
| fastfinger | make a counter to get the X number of item and reset the counter? |
| somian | SirFunk! |
| rindolf | jagerman: I also don't understand why MySpace is popular. |
| ofer0 | check the CHANGES file from kernel 1.0: http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v1.0/CHANGES LOL @ - removed all the bugs, of course., - more changes than I really wanted.., - too many to count, really. Besides, I've lost my notes. |
| rindolf | I think the most badly designed LiveJournal page I have seen was better designed than the best designed MySpace site. |
| Torin | - removed all the bugs, of course. lol ;-) |
| jagerman | rindolf: Well, that roughly parallels the popularity of geocities a few years ago: it provides a simple way for people to have their own web site |
| rindolf | RevCtrl++ jagerman: yeah. |
