06:31.47harleypigIsn't there a tool for apache that will report permissions for a path?
06:41.06leviRyanE: Well, it's sort of been re-making itself regularly for years.
06:50.07leviC++11/14 is like a different language that manages to remain backward-compatible with old-C++ and C still. :P
07:11.20leviHoly cow, the final draft of C++14 is 1366 pages.
07:19.17harleypigIsn't that about how big obamacare is?

That is the blood moon just starting to come out of the Lunar Eclipse at around 5:30am, while hidden behind a thing layer of Cirrus clouds.
17:30.22youtahAnd here is Pleiades, aka the Seven Sisters. Also the logo that Subaru uses for their cars. Subaru is Japanese for Pleiades btw. http://i.imgur.com/hmvlGy7.jpg
17:32.02youtahThe fuzzy spots around the 7 stars you see, are actually nebulous gases, not haze from the sky.
17:32.40neybar_workdo you have a link to buy the blood moon shot?

19:08.51jxqz~work
19:08.51infobotmethinks work is the integral of the dot product of force and displacement
19:09.00jxqzthat is correct

19:25.47SunSparchaha, jsmith, yours was not lame, it was good, but youtah's is awesome. ;)
19:26.59jsmithSunSparc: He also had the advantage of a telescope, and better camera gear
19:29.03SunSparcYep. The right tools make a big difference.
19:30.23SunSparcyoutah: Mind if I use that picture for my Facebook cover photo?
19:32.20youtahSunSparc, totally fine!
19:32.52SunSparcThanks :)
19:32.55youtahDid I show you pictures of the telescopes I was using?
19:33.05SunSparcI did not see them.
19:33.15youtahhttp://i.imgur.com/94N0Wa4.jpg
19:33.56youtahThat was the 3400mm focal length (208ish mm) f/16.3 two element refracting telecope I used for this photo: http://i.imgur.com/2Wyb97F.jpg
19:34.46youtahand this telescope (1280mm focal length) at 160mm at f/8 http://i.imgur.com/nKvWA6q.jpg was what I used to capture the rest of the shots
19:35.02SunSparcYou talking about that big mounted white one in the middle of the room? That is awsome!
19:35.12youtahYes, correct
19:35.40SunSparcWow, most impressive.
19:35.51youtahI like it. It's fun. Worth staying up all night for
19:35.53SunSparcWhere are these scopes mounted?
19:36.05youtahThe big huge one is at the Stans Bury Observatory
19:36.24youtahthe other one is a "portable" telescope that my friend owns.
19:36.56SunSparcHaha, "portable".
19:37.10youtahHe has a minivan with the entire back end modified to fit it, so he breaks it down and can move it around
19:37.37SunSparcThat is devotion. I am somewhat jealous.
19:38.00youtahyeah, he's on the board for the SLAS and has previously, a couple of times, been the president
19:38.04SunSparcI keep wanting to get a telescope so I can take the kids out and show them some cool stuff.
19:38.28jsmithSunSparc: "Amateurs worry about equipment... Professionals worry about money.... Masters worry about light."
19:38.43youtahSome other shots I got with his telescope that night: http://i.imgur.com/hmvlGy7.jpg
19:38.51SunSparcjsmith: So true.
19:38.55youtahhttp://i.imgur.com/jeK4anR.jpg
19:39.24SunSparcSeriously?! Spectacular.
19:39.34leviGrrrrrrrr, robo-dialed recorded advertisements.
19:39.41youtahand I cannot remember if I showed you this one or not, but this is the Cirrus clouds overlaying the moon as it was coming out of the Lunar Eclipse, with Uranus at the bottom left corner http://i.imgur.com/CiWKjYY.jpg
19:39.59SunSparcyoutah: Is that first one the big dipper?
19:40.17youtahNo, it is M45, aka Pleiades
19:40.20youtahaka the 7 sisters
19:40.51youtahSubaru, uses it as their emblem on their car. Subaru in Japanese means Pleiades
19:41.08SunSparcCool
19:41.13RyanETod-Work: XMission through Qwest.  Slow, but otherwise mostly non-sucky.
19:41.19youtahThe second one is M42, and is the Orion Nebulous
19:41.34Tod-WorkRyanE, thank you.  I like XMission.
19:41.44Tod-WorkI don't think I could go back to that upload speed, though
19:42.39RyanEyeah, it bites, but I hate Comcast with the heat of 1000 suns.
19:42.46SunSparcyoutah: Those are the celestial images that really make people rethink what they see when they look up.
19:43.22Tod-Workhides his hostname >.>
19:43.38fozzmoohas been uber happy with Vivint Wireless
19:43.54SunSparcpeaks at Tod-Work's hostname...
19:44.11SunSparcis in the same boat :(
19:44.32SunSparcI am looking into using Neighborhood Networks.
19:44.47Tod-WorkI will never, EVER use a wireless ISP unless he's outside of city land
19:45.19fozzmooIt's great.
19:45.28Tod-Workstill wireless
19:45.36SunSparcYeah, I have heard hit or miss stories with wireless. Though I hear good things about Vivint wireless.

19:45.58asocI was just super mad about the lack of support of the Maquiere (sp) deal here in the salt lake valley
19:46.06youtahgently pats his fiber optics to house
19:46.06fozzmooBelieve me, I was skeptical... but, as I've said, it's been great. 75 Mbps, symmetric.
19:46.23youtah100mbps up & down here
19:46.35joshhwow, i would have guessed quite differently
19:46.38youtahbut I wish pashdown would buy veracity so I could have XMission instead ;)
19:46.41joshhmaybe we're in the age of decent wisps finally
19:46.55fozzmoocrosses various appendages.
19:47.29SunSparcdreams of downloading a petabyte of data in one second...
19:48.35fozzmooAfter waiting for 3.5TB to move across a gigabit ethernet network, I wondered why we used to think gigabit ethernet was so freakin' fast.
19:48.49youtah^^^^^
19:49.04youtahI am currently backing up 5.5 TB of data to Back Blaze right now
19:49.18youtahI am looking at ~ 1TB every two weeks
19:49.26leviYeah, when do we get cheap 10G NICs and switches?
19:49.40programmerqyeah, that's why I made sure to get cat6 copper when I wired my house. it isn't impossible that 10gigabit will be a reasonable thing to switch to in the next decade.
19:49.58youtahdrools
19:49.59SunSparcRemember when 9600 baud was the hotness?
19:50.09leviSadly, I do.
19:50.24SunSparcThose were good times. :)
19:50.41programmerqI remember being excited about our first cable modem.
19:50.55youtahI remember about passing out when my 486 got a connection of 36Kbps
19:51.05SunSparc:)
19:52.34fozzmooI remember dialing into USU's VAX at 300 baud. :)
19:52.45programmerqI was in 7th grade or so when I bought a 486 at a surplus auction for cheap, and figured out how to set up "ip masquerade" for the other computers in the house.
19:53.08programmerqit was way better than the windows 95 tray icon thing we had that was a socks server.
19:53.22fozzmooThe nice thing (if you can call it that) about 300 baud is that you don't really need to worry about using XON/XOFF because you can pretty much read the text as fast as it's coming across the line..
19:53.54programmerqhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/@Home_Network <-- this was my first cable provider.
19:55.24SunSparcHah, I used to work for @Home.
19:55.38fozzmooprogrammerq: I had @Home too. They were awesome.
19:55.56fozzmooWhen @Home was in business, Cache Valley was the best-connected area of Utah.
19:56.19fozzmooThen AT&T bought them and it all went south from there.
19:59.37programmerq@home had some pretty horrific support folks.
19:59.51programmerqsince I was using linux, they would piss and moan and wouldn't actually look at anything.
20:00.09programmerqthat was really my first experience dealing with tech support for anything.
20:00.39SunSparcBack before Linux was as mainstream as it is now.
20:01.07programmerqwell, a good majority of consumer routers these days are linux. I was basically doing exactly that before consumer routers were a thing.
20:01.37programmerq(I guess I don't *know* that a majority are, but it is pretty common)
20:02.28leviI had a 10-base2 ethernet based on some surplus cards running at home. We were only sharing a modem connection, but at least it had a dedicated line.
20:02.53*** join/#utah pdayton (~pjdayton@67.21.63.146)
20:03.35leviI had a surplus serial terminal hooked up at one point, too.
20:04.55SunSparcThat reminds me of the Computer History museum in San Jose. I want to take my kids there someday.
20:05.29leviAlso, StarCraft via WINE. :)
20:06.05programmerqwe'll be having this same conversation about the same period of time when we are in nursing homes.
20:07.12SunSparcHaha, well, at least we have something to look forward to. :)
20:07.45SunSparcI do not think I ever got StarCraft to work in Wine.
20:08.51programmerqone thing I saw on /r/oculus a while back was a guy would take a flight simulator setup to nursing homes. (he had an oculus and a monitor available, so there was a choice).
20:09.18programmerqhe said it was fun because some people in homes were pilots, but wouldn't be able to pass medical, but are still pretty good.
20:15.21asoclevi: that was many a day in highschool in the back of the class :)
20:16.06asocbut everyone blamed me for lag cause I was on a "weird" OS
20:16.52asocTurned out it was the router having issues because of the HD media streaming that was going on in the other room.
20:17.50asocBut StarCraft usually ended up going later than the movie so about 1am on was lag free
20:17.57asoc:)

22:27.46leviI'm not really sure what you'd want a generic C dumper to do, in general.
22:28.41leviActually, the nice generic way to dump data in C is with gdb.
22:29.37leviThe compiler includes all sorts of information about the memory layout of your data in its DWARF debug data that it sticks in your binary.
22:29.51harleypigI was trying to avoid gdb
22:30.04harleypig*sigh*
22:30.08harleypig*SIGH*
22:31.27leviWell, I generally write dumping routines for all the data structures I create that write to some common place, like a file descriptor or a buffer passed to them.
22:36.39jlp_zncgeez, harleypig, what do you want C to do, hold your hand?  
22:36.49leviBut there's no built-in mechanism in C for data introspection or dynamic-type-based dispatch.
22:37.00harleypigI want it to shake me off like perl does.
22:37.01*** join/#utah T4rku5 (~74rku5@unaffiliated/shunkydave)
22:37.08jlp_znchow would a C data dumper handle a union, anyway?
22:37.16leviWell, at least not a very sophisticated mechanism, anyway.
22:37.22jlp_zncnow python, there's a hand holdy language
22:38.41*** join/#utah tristanrhodes_ (~tristanrh@2001:1948:212:0:39ba:7a91:f457:d6da)
22:44.17leviI wonder what it would take for your program to find its own binary, grovel it for the ELF table and relevant DWARF data, and use that to implement runtime data introspection.
23:42.35jlp_zncsounds like an interesting library to write
