[16:57:10] morning halfak :) [16:57:21] o/ Ironholds [16:57:25] how goes? [16:59:04] Not bad. Just reading up on Christian Sandvig [16:59:12] "Internet as infrastructure" [16:59:57] Which seems very obvious to me -- and the whole point -- but it's interesting to see social scientists reverse engineer the reasoning of engineers. [17:00:28] How you doin'? [17:00:30] Ironholds, ^ [17:02:00] okay-ish! Hoping to spend today working on something interesting :) [17:02:07] too many options, though! [17:02:09] Talk page parser? [17:02:16] that's my objective! [17:02:21] distributions are giving me a headache [17:02:41] on the plus side, I've now successfully rebuilt all of R-core's distributions to operate between 25 and 1,000%-faster, and have rational error-handling [17:03:07] but talk pages: yes. What can I do to help the most? [17:04:31] Take a pass at the parser and tell me how far you get. [17:07:10] kk! [17:07:28] bah, I've lost my link :/ [17:08:43] Hmm... I think the work might be gone then. [17:08:50] I figured you'd copy it :( [17:09:13] Crap [17:09:45] Yeah. it's gone. http://pairjam.com/#ucnbu2 [17:09:52] Well... [17:10:13] That sucks a lot [17:10:16] augh! [17:10:22] sorry! I didn't know I was meant to :/ [17:10:53] okay, I will start a github repository and begin work [17:12:01] * halfak wishes he could remember a little more about what we learned in that hack session. [17:12:51] we have the etherpad notes at least? [17:13:15] yeah. That'll help a bit. [17:13:27] I thought that pairjam would have preserved our work. [17:18:25] yeah, me too, or I would've copied it. I'm so sorry I screwed this up, dude :/ [17:21:19] No worries. It'll be faster and potentially better the second time. [17:22:10] Ironholds, [17:22:13] do you have a repo? [17:22:33] I'll like it to pairjam and do the skeleton outline again. [17:22:48] halfak, I do! [17:23:02] https://github.com/Ironholds/talk-parser and it assumes Python. Whee :) [17:23:12] you should be listed as a collaborator [17:23:45] http://pairjam.com/#ucnbu2 [17:24:27] will grab drink, smoke and fetch headphones. Whee! :) [17:24:33] kk [17:24:44] I have about 30 minutes I can spare. I'll get to outlining. [17:25:04] kk! [17:28:55] okay, I'm in [17:29:42] Can't figure out how to add a file. [17:29:46] So I started a new one. [17:29:50] http://pairjam.com/#aij27h [17:30:32] hah; snap! In there now [17:44:40] this code is a bit beyond me, but I'm doing my best to keep up [18:01:40] halfak, currently comment: is that "hmn, what do we do with things not under a header"? [18:06:49] Ironholds, ignore 'em [18:07:11] We could also have a zero level header for anything before we see a header. [18:08:19] * Ironholds thinks [18:08:37] I suspect anything before a header is likely to be either misplaced commentary from newcomers or things like archive templates and headers [18:08:41] I'm not sure how we'd distinguish the two [18:09:22] Look for a signature? [18:09:25] I guess. [18:10:56] that'd prrobably work? [18:11:02] I'm not sure if people sign headers [18:11:07] I guess we can do a test run and find out! [18:34:24] agh [18:34:41] halfak, I've been informed friends are forcibly inserting themselves into my home with easter dinner leftovers. [18:35:06] Isn't today Easter? [18:35:18] I've got weird friends. But I probably need to head :/. Drop me a URL with whatever you've got when you're done? I'll run it against some samples, see if there are bugs or if I can help out. Python isn't my forte but I can totally bootstrap it [18:35:25] lunch, rather [18:35:36] wait, no, text message says dinner. [18:35:42] ...I don't think they know how to food [18:36:25] "we always eat easter dinner early" okay but 2pm is pushing it. [18:36:34] OK. I'm done with the basic skeleton anyway. [18:36:35] http://pairjam.com/#aij27h [18:36:44] If you copy that into the repo, we can hack on it later. [18:37:08] * halfak stops typing [18:37:10] :) [18:37:11] shall do! [18:37:58] https://github.com/Ironholds/talk-parser/blob/master/parser.py boop [18:38:13] okay; heading. Take care dude! Thank you so much for this. I'll run it through its paces this evening.
