in irc:

phquery has no ssl support anyway, just qi’s configurator puts all the libs in
now it’s exiting with 75
also EX_TEMPFAIL

a brief break wherein Our Heroine retires to look at the source…

this program has a function called DANGER_WILL_ROBINSON??
too cute, isn’t it? It also has a function called KateBush.
* niqui is staring at that right now.
who is responsible for this? i must find that person, and kill him.
not tang.
strcpy(xyzzy, KateBush) … nice! i immediately know upon looking at *that* code what you’re doing! you’re doing … a string copy! of something! something you named stupidly!
oh, a variable. whatever.
i am immediately establishing an embargo whereupon no alcohol or hallucinogens will be imported into the greater champaign-urbana area until someone apologises for this code
* wasy stares and then launches into profanity
* tang only remembers, didn’t look
* niqui wonders if wasy’s staring at the code and swearing, or staring at election-foo
code, not election-foo
it’s pretty special, innit?
you know, when *i’m* able to criticise your code, you got *problems*

hey, working on DOOM! beats watching hysterical news programming about the election. i’ll tune in in a while, but for now… naaah.

my be nice pledge is not the only one: jeff jarvis’ post-election peace pledge, at buzzmachine.

this must mean being nice is a good idea!

being nice works!

via ladytabitha: this is what could happen if everybody took the be nice pledge — not necessarily swaying voters to a particular candidate (as that’s a bit irrelevant by now, 4PM EST), but opening minds, having good discussions, and making people think.

that story makes me happy.
