04:50.19 Marctannous did anyone have any chance of looking over my task?
04:54.22 Notify 03BRL-CAD:brlcad * 63748 brlcad/trunk/NEWS: cliff added a bot chull subcommand to create convex hulls around geometry (todo: reconcile against how the CLI would get extended if we did concave hulls too .. still chull? just hull? envelope?).
04:56.01 Notify 03BRL-CAD:brlcad * 63749 brlcad/trunk/NEWS: worth calling out the robustness and performance improvements to NURBS Booleans by nick in addition to the existing new feature item.

07:56.25 MarcTannousSchoo brlcad, was my task okay? you closed it without nay additional comments
07:57.05 MarcTannousSchoo ch3ck,starseeker,stragus thanks for the help last night with Linux, needed it.
08:00.51 Stragus Cool, you got it all figured out now? :)
08:01.40 MarcTannousSchoo Stragus, still have some problems installing the build, but can work on the source code for now, can't compile to see if it works yet
08:01.47 MarcTannousSchoo will re-install brl-cad altogether when I get home
08:01.48 andrei_ why?
08:01.50 andrei_ I ll help you
08:01.53 andrei_ if I m still around
08:01.59 MarcTannousSchoo Had some weird issues when compiling
08:02.04 andrei_ you probably miss some dependencies
08:02.09 Stragus Probably, yes
08:02.16 MarcTannousSchoo something along the lines error: you need a strstream/sstream compiler
08:02.18 andrei_ there was someone who made packages of brlcad
08:02.21 andrei_ Jordi, I believe
08:02.29 MarcTannousSchoo googled around a lot and nobody had the same issue
08:02.33 andrei_ that's probably g++
08:02.37 MarcTannousSchoo I thought so too
08:02.42 MarcTannousSchoo so I updated my gcc and g++
08:02.45 MarcTannousSchoo still had the issue
08:02.54 Stragus That sounds weird
08:02.56 MarcTannousSchoo I'll just see if reinstalling solves the issue
08:03.13 Stragus Give us the exact error message when you can
08:03.14 andrei_ it sounds more like something caused by code
08:03.17 MarcTannousSchoo Might have just been something obvious I was missing, it was around 23:30 when this happened
08:03.39 andrei_ during uni, 23.30 was when I started working on stuff :))
08:03.49 *** join/#brlcad ries (~ries@D979C47E.cm-3-2d.dynamic.ziggo.nl)
08:03.51 MarcTannousSchoo just a second stragus, I can give you the error right now
08:03.55 MarcTannousSchoo I see we have logs
08:04.12 andrei_ for some reason, few do
08:04.26 Stragus tends to also start working around that time, working remotely will do that
08:04.28 MarcTannousSchoo #error "Need a stringstream (sstream or strstream) to compile!"
08:04.45 MarcTannousSchoo at around 57% of the "make install" process
08:04.53 MarcTannousSchoo googled it a lot, nobody had the same issue
08:05.05 MarcTannousSchoo not sure if the problem was on my side or with brlcad's src
08:05.06 Stragus It's a custom #error in the source code
08:05.19 Stragus Typically: #if badstuff #error ARGHH!! #endf
08:05.21 MarcTannousSchoo yeah, it needed sstream.h or strstream.h
08:05.24 MarcTannousSchoo I grepd it
08:05.32 MarcTannousSchoo no idea how to manually add these
08:06.17 andrei_ you should check out the svn again
08:06.28 andrei_ if you get the same error, we ll look into i
08:06.29 andrei_ t
08:06.30 MarcTannousSchoo the code was along hte lines of
08:06.34 MarcTannousSchoo along the lines of *
08:06.57 MarcTannousSchoo ifndef strstream.h ifndef sstream.h error
08:07.34 Stragus sstream.h is a standard C++ header
08:07.41 Stragus Darn, Debian is messed up
08:07.44 MarcTannousSchoo +1
08:07.51 Stragus You are probably missing some GCC related package somewhere
08:07.58 MarcTannousSchoo how should I install it?
08:08.08 MarcTannousSchoo one of you recommended I apt-get install build-essentials
08:08.18 MarcTannousSchoo I sudo apt-get installd it and I still had the error
08:08.36 andrei_ Marc, don t worry, we ll fix it :)
08:08.48 andrei_ The bad thing with Linux is sometimes it needs a lot of fiddling
08:08.55 andrei_ the good part is you can always do it yourself
08:08.56 andrei_ :)
08:08.58 MarcTannousSchoo IIRC packages I installed were Cmake, Simian, Svn, gcc, g++
08:09.13 MarcTannousSchoo also build-essentials
08:09.55 andrei_ there are things than can break
08:10.05 andrei_ i.e you need g++_x64
08:10.07 andrei_ instead of g++
08:10.08 andrei_ stuff like that
08:10.09 MarcTannousSchoo oh
08:10.10 andrei_ don t worry
08:10.16 Stragus I'm sure Debian must have packaged the C++ headers into a different package
08:10.21 Stragus Debian will do that, just to annoy people
08:10.27 andrei_ hahah
08:10.35 MarcTannousSchoo Why did I install Debian
08:10.39 MarcTannousSchoo :(
08:10.41 andrei_ it's good you did :)
08:10.50 MarcTannousSchoo People of the internet told me Debian > Ubuntu
08:10.53 andrei_ it's a more popular, easier distribution tree
08:10.59 MarcTannousSchoo EASIER
08:11.05 Stragus You'll probably need some kind of package named libstdc++6-4.2-dev or some other crap
08:11.06 MarcTannousSchoo oh god
08:11.13 andrei_ ^
08:11.16 andrei_ yeah, what Stragus said
08:11.25 andrei_ I used archlinux for quite a while
08:11.31 Stragus Neither Debian nor Ubuntu are good for programmers
08:11.36 Stragus For normal users, perhaps
08:11.41 MarcTannousSchoo I'm happy Sean closed my task first-try, I must be improving or he might have made a mistake
08:11.41 andrei_ until I got tired of it needing to update every time I needed whatever
08:12.01 MarcTannousSchoo Not sure if removing 500-600 lines of code was too much
08:12.07 andrei_ Marc, come on
08:12.10 MarcTannousSchoo I should've been smart and divided it into two tasks xD
08:12.14 andrei_ focus on what's ahead
08:12.18 andrei_ not on what's behind :)
08:12.21 MarcTannousSchoo not sure what's ahaead
08:12.27 andrei_ well, figure it out :)
08:12.29 andrei_ claim a task
08:12.31 andrei_ work some more
08:12.33 andrei_ be more awesome
08:12.35 andrei_ :)
08:12.35 MarcTannousSchoo if the new task batch does not come out until I get home
08:12.43 MarcTannousSchoo I'll get a new code duplication task I guess
08:12.47 andrei_ I ve done a count
08:12.54 andrei_ I m not sure when they'll be delivered
08:12.58 MarcTannousSchoo There was a lot of duplication in Tcl files
08:13.02 andrei_ but there are about 80+ new tasks
08:13.05 *** join/#brlcad YashM (~YashM@117.198.13.245)
08:13.09 MarcTannousSchoo But I had no idea about Tcl
08:13.17 MarcTannousSchoo so I chose the C files
08:13.30 MarcTannousSchoo oh, I should actually post a link here on IRC
08:13.32 MarcTannousSchoo just a sec
08:13.41 andrei_ Stragus: you have a point, I don t like ubuntu since it became bloated with stuff I never use
08:13.43 *** join/#brlcad d_rossberg (~rossberg@66-118-151-70.static.sagonet.net)
08:13.57 andrei_ like AudioDJ
08:14.00 MarcTannousSchoo http://pastebin.com/z5TRvLqe , for anyone that does not want to run simian on their VM as it takes literally ages
08:14.18 MarcTannousSchoo that's all the code duplication in brlcad's src
08:14.56 MarcTannousSchoo except for the ones in Factory.c, I fixed those
08:14.58 Stragus andrei_, I'm very fond of Gentoo
08:15.09 andrei_ really?
08:15.29 andrei_ isn't compiling everything yourself a setback?
08:15.34 Stragus It's great for programmers. Everything compiles to install
08:16.01 Stragus No, it's amazing! You can build a whole system without any forced binary dependency on PulseAudio or any other garbage distributions try to force on you
08:16.19 MarcTannousSchoo I guess I'll just get used to Linux on a "user-friendly" OS like Debian and in a few months/years get into the hardcore stuff like Gentoo :D
08:16.36 andrei_ you don t need to get "hardcore" stuff unless you really use it
08:16.52 andrei_ I used archlinux as it saved about 1h of battery on my laptop
08:17.05 andrei_ (it s minimal, starts at about 300mb )
08:17.49 Stragus Right. With Gentoo or ArchLinux, you have freedom to build your system as you want it
08:17.51 *** join/#brlcad merzo (~merzo@15-122-133-95.pool.ukrtel.net)
08:18.10 andrei_ the problem with ArchLinux is pacman(it's version of apt-get)
08:18.23 andrei_ it gets broken from time to time, and it s messy to fix
08:18.37 andrei_ but yeah, building a system with exactly what you want/need is awesome
08:18.46 andrei_ It costs you a day, then save you plenty others
08:18.52 MarcTannousSchoo one thing I liked about linux was the downloading and apt-get directly into the terminal
08:18.53 Stragus Compiling from scratch allows that, you choose your dependencies and options
08:19.00 MarcTannousSchoo that's about the only thing that I liked xD
08:19.05 andrei_ haha
08:19.32 Stragus Give it time... :) I'm so used to having 8 desktops and switching instantly between them, Windows feels so awkward
08:19.48 MarcTannousSchoo Stragus, you can do that on Windows too
08:19.55 MarcTannousSchoo Dual monitor configuration allows for stuff like that
08:19.55 Stragus uses a minimalistic window manager, I want absolutely instanteous response
08:20.10 MarcTannousSchoo Also Debian does not recognize my second monitor for some reason
08:20.14 andrei_ Stragus: why not 4 gpu's then? :))
08:20.22 MarcTannousSchoo :))
08:20.26 Stragus Nah. Switching instantly between desktops on the same monitor is faster than moving your eyes to a different monitor
08:20.28 MarcTannousSchoo maybe he's on a laptop
08:20.46 Stragus And I'm serious about this. Having all your desktops on the same monitor is better
08:20.53 MarcTannousSchoo Stragus: you'll get used to it, and won't consider it a different monitor but an extension
08:20.59 Stragus I have tried it
08:21.19 andrei_ I usually get tangled in terminals
08:21.20 Stragus It takes longer to rotate the head and focus the eyes than to switch desktop
08:21.32 andrei_ got about 16 right now
08:21.35 andrei_ with various stuff
08:21.46 MarcTannousSchoo Also, is there any way I can cascade windows in debian?
08:21.54 Stragus Sure, I must have about 16 too on all the desktops
08:21.57 MarcTannousSchoo so if I have 4 terminals open they show up in my taskbar as just one?
08:22.05 andrei_ uhm ...
08:22.24 MarcTannousSchoo I'm used to that and having to navigate through all of them seems awkward ( long time windows user problems )
08:22.24 Stragus That depends on your window manager. I wouldn't want that though
08:23.05 *** join/#brlcad YashM_ (~YashM@117.215.32.244)
08:23.33 Stragus Ideally, you want an environment where you can navigate between your windows/terminals/programs without ever touching the mouse and with your eyes closed
08:23.41 andrei_ :))
08:23.44 andrei_ that's a bit hardcore
08:23.45 Stragus If you have that, you'll be efficient
08:23.49 andrei_ for a highschool student
08:23.54 Stragus Oh... right
08:24.01 MarcTannousSchoo :)))\
08:24.03 andrei_ but I get your point
08:24.08 andrei_ it's the same with Vim
08:24.15 MarcTannousSchoo is there a command for switching between desktops?
08:24.17 andrei_ some people are blazingly fast with Vim
08:24.18 MarcTannousSchoo keyboard command I mean
08:24.23 andrei_ Ctrl + arrow
08:24.23 MarcTannousSchoo or can i map my keyboard under Linux?
08:24.25 andrei_ afaik
08:24.26 Stragus That depends on the window manager
08:24.38 Stragus Ctrl+Alt+1, Ctrl+Alt+2, etc. is rather standard
08:24.42 mihaineacsu_away if you're on osx, you could switch to iterm2 and split the window horizontaly/vertically for multiple sessions
08:24.43 MarcTannousSchoo not sure what a window manager is but I have a Gnome desktop if that's what you mean
08:25.01 mihaineacsu_away if not you can go for tmux or something simillar
08:25.21 MarcTannousSchoo mihaineacsu, do you have the adobe suite on OSX?
08:25.27 mihaineacsu_away yes, you do
08:25.32 MarcTannousSchoo I wanted to know if it's any better than the windows version
08:25.48 MarcTannousSchoo a lot of designers say it feels smoother
08:25.51 mihaineacsu a while designers
08:25.57 mihaineacsu used to switch because of that
08:25.59 MarcTannousSchoo Photoshop/Illustrator/etc.
08:26.02 mihaineacsu a while ago*
08:26.18 MarcTannousSchoo I ll have to buy a laptop soon enough and am really considering macbooks right now
08:26.21 mihaineacsu that's I did initially
08:26.28 mihaineacsu that's why I*
08:26.40 MarcTannousSchoo Also there's a lot of OSX-only design tools
08:26.41 MarcTannousSchoo :/
08:26.50 andrei_ Marc: It's more complicated than I put it but: In windows, the GUI/Window Manager/UI is bound to the OS, it's one piece. On linux, it's a separate part
08:26.58 andrei_ you have Gnome now, you could change to KDE
08:27.04 andrei_ without reinstalling your system
08:27.14 Stragus Or you could change to any of about 200 other window managers out there
08:27.15 andrei_ the interface and the OS are connected as a client-server
08:27.23 MarcTannousSchoo Yeah, I got that but people said Gnome is pretty User-firendly
08:27.28 andrei_ it is
08:27.39 Stragus It's rather slow though, and annoying
08:27.50 MarcTannousSchoo what would you recommend Stragus?
08:27.51 Stragus can't live without an instant response
08:28.11 Stragus I would still recommend that you explore Linux through Gnome or KDE for now
08:28.29 *** join/#brlcad kesha_ (~kesha@106.51.132.236)
08:28.31 MarcTannousSchoo Marc's journey through the mystical lands of UNIX started yesterday
08:28.37 Stragus When you get more experienced, you can try out more... efficient environments
08:28.49 andrei_ there's a joke with Vim
08:29.02 andrei_ Some users are blazingly fast with Vim, others just generate trully random text trying to exit it ...
08:29.18 MarcTannousSchoo let me just google what Vim is
08:29.21 Notify 02GCI:saurabh997 * 5042004748664832 : Task Claimed - I would like to work on this task.
08:29.38 MarcTannousSchoo erm
08:29.40 MarcTannousSchoo http://www.vim.org/
08:29.43 Stragus Vim is a text editor, designed to be very efficient, it's also the least user-friendly environment you can imagine
08:29.45 MarcTannousSchoo what is that picture on their landing page
08:29.50 YashM_ So nobody plays games here?
08:29.54 Stragus You can not do *anything* unless you know the keyboard shortcuts
08:30.00 MarcTannousSchoo how is that code-related
08:30.04 Notify 02GCI:popescuandrei * 5042004748664832 : Task Assigned - This task has been assigned to saurabh pathak. You have 100 hours to complete this task, good luck!
08:30.37 MarcTannousSchoo YashM_, I played League competitively on a national-level for the past 2 years, but have quit right now as it's pretty much gone to shit
08:30.50 MarcTannousSchoo YashM_, nowadays I'm just a high rank on tetris
08:31.01 Stragus Does Chess count? Or Scrabble, home-made AD&D...
08:31.06 YashM_ Hehe
08:31.33 MarcTannousSchoo You need others for Chess though and you have to wait for their move
08:31.40 MarcTannousSchoo You want an instant response :P
08:31.56 Stragus I make an exception for Chess :p
08:32.14 YashM_ I play a lot of games ranging from indies to AAA :P
08:32.28 andrei_ same as Marc, I keep dualboot as well
08:32.31 andrei_ I play on windows
08:32.42 Stragus I'm a little afraid of trying games, I know I can get hooked
08:32.57 Stragus And since I work remotely from home, I could do nothing else for a month easily
08:33.07 MarcTannousSchoo I'll have a very important exam in about an year, I am not touching MMOs
08:33.20 MarcTannousSchoo They might just ruin my life
08:33.21 MarcTannousSchoo :))
08:33.29 andrei_ but you will gain so many more !
08:33.37 MarcTannousSchoo Those legendary items tho
08:33.44 MarcTannousSchoo They're not gonna grind themselves up, are they
08:34.38 Stragus I did get hooked on Diablo 3 on Hardcore (normal had no interest), until server issues killed my character (permanently) twice in a row at Hell difficulty
08:34.59 Stragus I complained to Blizzard and they actually gave me a refund
08:35.02 MarcTannousSchoo Didn't they like remove the auction house for some reason?
08:35.05 YashM_ lol
08:35.11 andrei_ a refund of what sort ?
08:35.20 Stragus Full purchase price, refunded
08:35.26 andrei_ aah, I thought the character
08:35.35 andrei_ their customer service tends to be alright
08:35.42 YashM_ I heard Diablo II is much better than III
08:35.53 andrei_ mh, that depends
08:35.54 Stragus Yes, they completely messed up Diablo III
08:35.55 MarcTannousSchoo That's just nostalgic people reviewing stuff
08:35.59 Stragus The storyline is *pathetic*
08:36.08 MarcTannousSchoo However some parts of D3 really are so poorly executed that
08:36.13 andrei_ I somehow have the same view as Marc
08:36.18 Stragus It's like a kid story, proper for a 7 years old. The vilains are all idiots, it's simplistic
08:36.24 MarcTannousSchoo I don't even understand what they wanted to do
08:36.35 MarcTannousSchoo Stragus: Also, all allies are actually baddies
08:36.39 MarcTannousSchoo Stragus: epic plot twists
08:36.46 Stragus Diablo is supposed to be dark, Diablo 3 made it a kid story
08:36.49 andrei_ I like transformers storyline *flies away*
08:36.59 Stragus Plot twists? They were all obvious miles ahead
08:37.07 MarcTannousSchoo "plot twists"
08:37.19 YashM_ So is anyone on Steam?
08:37.29 andrei_ nah
08:37.32 MarcTannousSchoo Don't install steam
08:37.42 MarcTannousSchoo Your wallet will disappear
08:37.56 andrei_ I d have a rather sexist joke regarding that
08:38.02 MarcTannousSchoo :))
08:38.11 Stragus Ah Diablo 3... Some evil archdemon, the greatest tactician of hell and over-general of hell legions, turned out to be a complete idiot
08:38.14 YashM_ I used to buy games with money I made online
08:38.27 Stragus Laughing at the players and telling them his plans in advance
08:38.38 MarcTannousSchoo Stragus, what about your ally becoming Diablo in the end though
08:38.48 MarcTannousSchoo Or receiving his powers and turning evil or some shit
08:38.51 MarcTannousSchoo Can't remember exactly
08:38.52 YashM_ There's no currency for our country in Steam #thirdworld
08:39.04 MarcTannousSchoo I'm off to classes though guys, have fun
08:39.10 Stragus Have fun

10:29.36 verlet Hi
10:29.44 andrei___ hello, verlet !
10:30.02 verlet I'm looking at getting my hands sort of stuck in
10:30.08 verlet Contributing wise
10:30.58 andrei___ awesome ! :)
10:31.11 andrei___ By the way, have to ask, lots of traffic from it these days, are you participating in Google Code-in?
10:31.25 verlet I'll level with you, I'm looking at maybe doing a Google summer of code thing with brlcad if brlcad are doing it, but I'd really like to get acquainted with the project first
10:32.14 andrei___ verlet: to be quite honest, we can't know beforehand if we'll get accepted. I(personally) don t know even if the organization will apply
10:32.30 andrei___ but sure, is there anything I can help you with?
10:33.00 verlet How can I help, haha
10:33.08 andrei___ first of all
10:33.20 andrei___ do you have the sourcecode checked out from svnd
10:33.22 andrei___ svn*
10:33.23 andrei___ and compiled?
10:33.29 andrei___ did you build brlcad?
10:33.33 andrei___ if not, you can do that
10:34.44 verlet I will do that. I'm on a 3 hour bus ride at the moment, thought I'd just drop into the irc and say hello and see what the first steps are
10:34.44 andrei___ http://brlcad.org/wiki/Compiling
10:35.14 andrei___ well, verlet, you have to keep in mind that during this period we're a bit packed with google Code-in
10:35.24 andrei___ we do answer, and we are always looking for new contributors :)
10:35.29 andrei___ but it might take us a bit more to do so
10:35.52 verlet No worries, I'm a patient guy :)
10:35.53 andrei___ most developers that I know of do read the backlog and answer
10:36.05 andrei___ so if you ask something, you will get an answer
10:36.09 andrei___ just perhaps not instantly
10:39.13 verlet What's the Google code in
10:47.59 andrei___ in a way, it is similar to GSoC, but it's for high school students
10:48.27 andrei___ it involves high school students getting real world experience for the first time, interacting with open source organizations
10:48.35 andrei___ but unlike gsoc, where you've got a 12 week project
10:48.46 andrei___ they have a list of modular tasks, that usually take them a day or two
10:56.06 andrei___ you can check it out yourself

13:58.37 parth_21 in that task I have properly described about my task
13:58.37 andrei_ I did.
13:58.50 andrei_ my strategy for designing icons was first creating sone good icons in an desktop app named ICONION and then modifying them in photoshop. It seems easy but i did a lot of effort in first selecting app downloading the app and then modifying the icons in Photoshop. I spent a day on this task. These icons are recommended for your new website for menus like documentation ,gallery, home , blog etc.
13:59.05 parth_21 And then please let me know the query
13:59.19 andrei_ This doesn't seem specific at all
13:59.34 parth_21 I cant see anyone who complaint about me
13:59.36 andrei_ In any case, I need to leave. You aren't "blocked" and there is no "penalty" on you
13:59.48 parth_21 Thanks for that
