| yafho3872 | hey why is it, that when i try to bookmark stuff in firefox. it ERASES the title, and i have to enter it again, only then it will save and once ina while, i come to find all of bookmakrs GONE |
| lonny | yafho3872: The databases were flatfile, directly accessed. For every year that had to be expanded to 4 characters, all the other columns had to be moved too, and the code rewritten to get the information from the new place. In literally hundreds of small executables. |
| nakawire | yafho3872: I've never had that issue though i store all of my bookmarks in the bookmark bar |
| yafho3872 | lonny: i see... |
| knight_ | bookmarks piss me off :( i have 8 browsers across multiple machines, and browser types |
| yafho3872 | wow... |
| lonny | Skiz: I remember discussing the 2037 problem, but that is just the epoch change, right? |
| knight_ | all with different bookmarks, and not a single decent bookmark sync tool in sight :( |
| Skiz | lonny: based on a 32bit integer yes |
| yafho3872 | dont worry about 2037...another war will consume us all |
| Skiz | there are no more bits |
| yafho3872 | and one day, someones gonna pull the trigger to a nuke and its gonna go somewhere and someones gonna fire back |
| Skiz | I need a shirt that says 'stupid bits!' |
| yafho3872 | and the other fires back mutually assured destruction and the whole world will end penguins will evolve, and take over or dolphins will learn to walk the lands |
| Skiz | just so people can say 'he has a shirt on that says stupid bits' |
| yafho3872 | have a great war with penguins |
| lonny | Skiz: My bits have not been too bright this particular day. |
| nakawire | So we've gone from ajax-hookers to armageddon in about 14 min |
| yafho3872 | lol |
| knight_ | 14 is the meaning of life folks... not 42. |
| Skiz | lonny: well its the mispronunciation I'm looking for. |
| yafho3872 | i jus want to pledge my loyalty to penguins or dolphins before they enslave you all hahah |
| Skiz | I for one welcome our...eh is it 1997 yet? |
| yafho3872 | mb they are watching... |
| mewconsulting | I have a "ghost" terminal running WEBrick on my Ubuntu Desktop, how do I find the process to stop the WEBrick server from running? |
| lonny | Seriously: Can anybody tell me why my record's created_on column is being set properly, but Rails is telling me "Error: created_on is set to nil" ?? |
| Skiz | mewconsulting: top/ps/etc |
| yafho3872 | lonny: mb try setting it not null |
| nakawire | lonny: That's a pickle |
| yafho3872 | lonny: works fine for me |
| mewconsulting | skiz: can you elaborate a bit I'm new to Linux what is top/ps/etc? |
