[04:33:09] <Ellenor> Noob question, but is it valid to refer to a character by its numerical value in C and C++? (i.e. nick[2] == 46 for period)
[04:55:06] <lemon> it's valid, why not use character constants though?

[06:53:10] <FatPhil> it's sometimes considered poor style to use < and > on any ranges of characters that aren't the digits.
[06:53:48] <FatPhil> that's an extremist view, more measured would be to allow the alpha ranges too.
[06:54:33] <n1> hey FatPhil, you got a minute or 5 to spare?
[06:54:54] <FatPhil> just woke up, and it was a heavy night on strong beers, but sure
[06:55:08] <n1> you have privs on the site don't you?

[06:55:19] <FatPhil> yes
[06:55:32] <n1> can you have a look over the last one i put in there, re british elections
[06:56:03] <n1> i just spent the last hour putting it together, but my brain is now blurry so it might have ended up all fucked up
[06:59:01] <n1> i probably should have put something in there about the brexit timeline
[07:00:48] <FatPhil> I can link a few key names and phrases to wikipedia articles, and suchlike

[07:12:09] <FatPhil> and indeed you've correctly copied CNBC's typo
[07:12:37] <n1> what typo was that
[07:17:54] <FatPhil> something like the "late-1960s to late 1990s"

[11:27:22] <Bytram> sorry to hear about your arm.. hope it doesn't interfere with your fooshin
[11:27:29] <Bytram> #weather TheMightyBuzzard
[11:27:30] <MrPlow> Today: Thunderstorms likely this morning. Then the chance of scattered thunderstorms this afternoon. High around 85F. Winds SSE at 10 to 20 mph. Chance of rain 80%. Localized flooding is possible. Tomorrow: Thunderstorms - a few could contain very heavy rain, especially in the afternoon. High 79F. SSE winds shifting to W at 10 to 20 mph. Chance of rain 100%. 2 to 3 inches of rain expected. Localized flooding is expected.
[11:27:35] <TheMightyBuzzard> cmn32480, nah, add #fite to the default channels list
[11:27:49] * Bytram likes that better
[11:27:50] <TheMightyBuzzard> ya, no fooshin the next few days
[11:28:15] <Bytram> Zoinks! Looks like you are in for some rather wet weather
[11:28:16] <TheMightyBuzzard> tropical storm remnants is gonna be all over the top of me.
[11:28:20] <Bytram> :(
[11:28:59] * Bytram was supposed to be on vacation this week, but schedules got messed up and it was postponed to next week...
[11:29:04] <TheMightyBuzzard> better'n tx or the other gulf states though. they got the full soggy
[11:29:28] <Bytram> of course, temps have been in the mid-to-upper 80's all week, and are supposed to be in the mid 70s next week. :/
[11:29:44] <TheMightyBuzzard> that'll be nice
[11:29:56] <TheMightyBuzzard> unless you wanted to go swimming
[11:30:48] <Bytram> there's something about 'hot' weather that just blocks my energy level and forces me to slow down and relax... much needed about now.
[11:31:43] <TheMightyBuzzard> you just need more practice butt-sitting. come and sit at the feet of the master.
[11:31:44] <Bytram> swimming? heh. You are not familiar with water temps in the northeast US I take it. Rivers, lakes, and especially the ocean are NOT conducive to swimming, at all, at this time of year.
[11:32:11] <Bytram> so, you should change your nick? TheMightyButtMaster

[11:38:08] <FatPhil> I used to collect population growth projections, but somehow I lost them
[11:38:41] <Bytram> so, umm, you grew out of that phase?
[11:38:43] <FatPhil> I was wondering, back inthe 90s, whether the people making the predictions were bullshitting, and the 10 years of data I collected indeed proved they were
[11:39:24] <FatPhil> Quite the opposite, I think a span of 20 years of preditions would be even more interesting
[11:39:42] <FatPhil> Every single source underestimated the growth.
[11:39:48] <FatPhil> Every single time.
[11:40:56] <FatPhil> that 2050 one looks believable though.

[22:04:18] <n1> people don't mind non-news non-tech stories, when it's something they're interested in... but it's intolerable if it's something they don't care for
[22:07:11] <mrpg> Yes. I'm like that too. That's why I don't complain on any story, I like some /dev/random ones.
[22:08:23] <n1> i'm a weird nerd in that i don't really care for sci-fi or other media/culture favourites of nerdish stereotypes
[22:10:17] <mrpg> Right now I only like movies, a little math, and computers. I stopped reading sci/fi 15 years ago.
