14:25:47 <flo-retina> :-(
14:25:59 <aleth> I also still get "no updates available" in IB
14:26:35 <flo-retina> :(
14:27:20 * flo-retina dislikes the look of the end of the log at http://buildbot.instantbird.org/builders/macosx-nightly-default/builds/1080/steps/shell_3/logs/stdio
14:28:13 <flo-retina> aleth: I get an update offer
14:28:19 <flo-retina> aleth: a full update though :-/

14:40:50 <flo-retina> aleth: Seems fixed: http://ftp.instantbird.com/instantbird/nightly/latest-trunk/ :)
14:41:06 <flo-retina> one of our scripts had a FreeBSD-specific option for the ln command
14:41:08 <aleth> Great :)
14:41:38 <flo-retina> (which didn't even made sense, as the FreeBSD version also supports the GNU version of the option "for compatibility with other implementations")
14:42:03 <aleth> It's the little things that get you...
14:43:29 <flo-retina> aleth: to display the possible completion in grey, would it make sense to just display the existing text + the completion in grey behind the existing text?
14:44:10 <clokep> I think that would be pretty neat btw. :)
14:44:13 <aleth> flo-retina: Is it easy to extend the inputbox to add formatting?
14:44:26 <flo-retina> aleth: no
14:44:28 <aleth> It would definitely make sense (among other things)
14:44:33 <clokep> we probably need to switch to a rich input box then.
14:44:41 <aleth> But my suspicion was always it would be hard to implement
14:44:55 <flo-retina> aleth: do you get an update, btw?
14:45:23 <aleth> flo-retina: not yet
14:47:47 * flo-retina doesn't understand what "not yet" mean
14:47:58 <clokep> flo-retina: What's our checkin status? Should we not be checking things in yet or?
14:48:04 <flo-retina> hmm, unless the local HTTP cache is in your way
14:48:10 <flo-retina> clokep: open!
14:48:14 <aleth> flo-retina: It means "no but maybe there is a cache issue"
14:48:16 <clokep> OK. :)

14:48:23 <flo-retina> clokep: except I'm not 100% convinced moz25 is ready ;)
14:48:32 <clokep> flo-retina: Not what I was asking for. :)
14:49:25 <flo-retina> aleth: is the new patch in bug 2228 changed enough that clokep should have another look?
14:49:26 <instantbot> Bug https://bugzilla.instantbird.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2228 enh, --, ---, aleth, ASSI, Don't handle incoming data synchronously
14:50:04 <aleth> flo-retina: I don't think so (it makes essentially no changes on the IRC side)
14:50:09 <flo-retina> aleth: the indent inside _activateQueue is wrong
14:50:19 <aleth> But if clokep would like to take a look... ;)
14:50:28 <clokep> I probably should.
14:50:36 <aleth> flo-retina: Gah, copy and paste...
14:51:15 <flo-retina> aleth: yeah, I saw there's almost no IRC change, but he almost owns socket.jsm too ;)
14:52:09 <flo-retina> oooh, you made the onStopRequest async :)
14:53:16 <aleth> flo-retina: Dropping the data on disconnect made it straightforward. I'm much happier with the resulting code ;)
14:53:28 <flo-retina> what about putting isConnected: false, in the prototype (more for the sake of self-documentation than any other thing
14:53:30 <flo-retina> )
14:53:40 <flo-retina> I'm glad you are happy :)
14:54:00 <aleth> flo-retina: It's already in the prototype
14:54:31 <clokep> flo-retina: I can't push. :( "HTTP Error 405: push requires POST request"
14:55:29 <flo-retina> clokep: I assume you haven't changed anything to your local config?
14:55:36 <clokep> Nope.
14:58:26 <clokep> Do I have like a trailing slash or something stupid like that? :P
14:59:39 <flo-retina> clokep: we are looking into it with Even
14:59:52 <flo-retina> clokep: well, if it worked before we should ensure it still works
14:59:57 <clokep> Thanks flo-retina and Even! Let me kno wif you want me to try again. :)
15:00:04 <flo-retina> otherwise we will have to teach all localizers to reconfigure their stuff ;)

15:01:57 * aleth is still shocked at how fast BIO is now :)
15:02:09 <flo-retina> heh :)
15:02:24 <aleth> flo-retina: Definitely "no updates available"
15:02:24 <flo-retina> we will migrate it to a fast server in the new few weeks ;)
15:02:27 <flo-retina> :(
15:02:38 <-- gerard-majax has quit (Ping timeout)
15:02:43 * flo-retina is still shocked at how confusing the update stuff is :(
15:02:51 <flo-retina> s/new few/next few/
15:04:16 <clokep> aleth: Do we need both a "pendingDataQueue" and an "incomingDataBuffer"?
15:04:52 <flo-retina> clokep: isn't one already split and the other one raw data?
15:06:37 <clokep> No.
15:06:50 <aleth> clokep: Hmm, good point. We could reuse it.
15:06:50 <clokep> Oh I'm sorry.
15:06:58 <clokep> aleth: No, they're totally different.
15:07:01 <clokep> I lied.
15:07:18 <clokep> incomingDataBuffer is the "last" bit of the incoming data, that we prepend onto the next set of incoming data.
15:07:31 <clokep> In case we get incomplete data.
15:07:46 <flo-retina> aleth: shouldn't there be a check that this._pendingData isn't empty before calling this._activateQueue(); when we have received new stuff?
15:08:05 <aleth> Ah right. Best not to try to unify those two then
15:08:24 <flo-retina> clokep: so you meant "yes."? ;)
15:09:09 <clokep> flo-retina: Well kind of, but they're both after the split has occurred, so they're both from split data.
15:09:36 <flo-retina> clokep: well, we will split again on one of the two
15:09:47 <clokep> Yes, semantics. ;)
15:09:58 <flo-retina> that's what I meant by "raw data"
15:09:59 <aleth> flo-retina: You mean "what if all the new data is incomplete"? I guess we could add a check for that.
15:10:11 <flo-retina> aleth: yes. That's what I meant.
15:10:27 <flo-retina> I'm not sure that's worth it, but I guessed it didn't hurt to share my thought ;)
15:11:06 <flo-retina> aleth: looks like if data.length is 0 after "data.pop()", you can just return early there
15:11:13 <flo-retina> and skip "this._pendingData = this._pendingData.concat(data);"

15:12:48 --> gerard-majax has joined #instantbird
15:13:08 <aleth> A brief test doesn't provide any examples of it happening, so is it worth adding the check?
15:15:59 <flo-retina> aleth: I don't expect the test to make any difference in the overall performance of this
15:16:11 <flo-retina> it's more something that makes sense when reading the code
15:16:13 <aleth> (I'm not sure how to balance the tiny cost of the extra if clause against the tiny cost of calling activateQueue without any new data in rare circumstances)
15:16:15 <-- gerard-majax has quit (Ping timeout)
15:16:37 <flo-retina> aleth: both seem to call almost nothing ;)
15:16:56 <flo-retina> aleth: so I guess the question is more: do we think this makes more sense?
15:17:10 <aleth> I'd be OK with it either way.
15:19:54 * clokep has no opinion. ;)
15:19:57 <flo-retina> ok, add it :)

15:22:59 <instantbot> florian@instantbird.org requested review from clokep@gmail.com for attachment 3004 on bug 2228.
15:25:18 <clokep> aleth: Can you go into more detail about what "Ensure no further data gets handled, should there still be an onDataAvailable call pending." means?
15:25:23 <clokep> How would that happen?
15:26:07 <clokep> aleth: I really dislike "delete this.onDataReceived;"
15:26:13 <clokep> I think that means you can't reuse the socket.
15:26:53 <aleth> Is the socket meant to be reuseable?
15:27:32 <flo-retina> _removeQueue is called only once, can it be inlined? ;)
15:27:41 <aleth> If so, I'll have to change other things too
15:28:13 <aleth> flo-retina: It can be inlined of course, but I separated it out to keep the queue code together ;)
15:28:29 <clokep> aleth: Yes, 100% it is.
15:28:59 <flo-retina> clokep: would you be happier if onDataAvailable checked isConnected instead?
15:29:03 <aleth> clokep: OK, thanks
15:31:08 <clokep> flo-retina: Yes, I think so.
15:32:50 * flo-retina would like to experiment with log crawling in a worker
15:33:34 <clokep> :)
15:33:43 <aleth> Log indexing? ;)
15:33:51 <flo-retina> aleth: nah
15:33:53 <clokep> I'd like to get Moz25 working.
15:33:57 <flo-retina> well, eventually yes
15:34:09 <flo-retina> but SQLite in workers is still work-in-progress for mozilla-central
15:34:14 <flo-retina> so we are a few months away from having it
15:37:34 <flo-retina> hmm, why have we never finished displaying automatically some context from the logs when opening a new conversation?
15:38:07 <clokep> Because we're over worked and under paid? ;)
15:38:26 <flo-retina> clokep: I suspect there are other reasons
15:38:39 <clokep> flo-retina: Honestly I usually have more of the other problem.
15:38:48 <flo-retina> clokep: do you think we could get that done faster if we got a 10% raise? ;)
15:38:51 <clokep> I usually find I want my context to disappear when I leave IB running too long.
15:38:58 <aleth> ask Mic? ;)
15:39:04 <aleth> clokep: That's what I'm interested in fixing too
15:39:14 <flo-retina> aleth: so why isn't that fixed?
15:39:18 <flo-retina> :-P
15:39:36 <flo-retina> clokep: why do you want that? Is it for performance or privacy concerns?
15:39:36 <aleth> flo-retina: Because it's more than a half-hour project ;)
15:39:53 <flo-retina> aleth: I guess it depends which part you address
15:40:11 <clokep> flo-retina: I find it difficult to scroll when I have 1000s of messages in my window.
15:40:19 <-- mconley has quit (Ping timeout)
15:40:27 <clokep> It's a usability thing.
15:40:30 <flo-retina> :-S
15:40:39 <flo-retina> I don't see how that makes a difference to scrolling
15:40:46 <flo-retina> or are you actually trying to use the scrollbar? :-S
15:40:54 <clokep> Yes, I frequently use the scrollbar.
15:40:58 <aleth> Wow, a scrollbar user :)
15:41:02 <flo-retina> that poor blinky thing :(
15:41:19 <clokep> The scroll button on my thinkpad doesn't work anymore in IB.
15:41:21 * aleth just presses Home
15:41:28 <flo-retina> clokep: don't you have a touchpad or something?
15:41:31 <clokep> No.
15:42:16 * clokep thinks it would be interesting to observe how the rest of us use Instantbird. ;)
15:42:36 <flo-retina> clokep: do you mean look at the screen while they are using it?
15:42:41 <clokep> flo-retina: In particular I want old Twitter crap to go away after a while.
15:42:50 <clokep> I don't re-reference them, but I frequently want to go to my unread ones.
15:42:59 <clokep> I should use the section scroll thing.
15:43:01 <flo-retina> clokep: I've successfully got that result by not configuring my twitter account :-P
15:43:03 <clokep> But I always forget the hotkey.
15:43:07 <flo-retina> (well, sorry for the useless answer ;))
15:43:09 <aleth> clokep: Home? ;)
15:43:26 <flo-retina> clokep: I can't remember the hotkey either :)
15:43:31 <aleth> There's also Alt-PgUp but that's more work.
15:43:34 <flo-retina> the touchpad is just so much more useful... :)
15:43:44 <clokep> I find home hard to get to on my thinkpad. ;)
15:43:53 <clokep> I really wish I knew why the scrollbar doesn't work though.
15:43:54 <aleth> https://wiki.instantbird.org/Keyboard_shortcuts
15:44:04 <flo-retina> sure, users should go RTFM :)
15:44:18 <aleth> Pretty bad discoverability if clokep needs to look it up :P
15:44:31 <flo-retina> aleth: these keys don't even exist on a macbook keyboard
15:44:46 <flo-retina> you have to press some modifier (likely Fn) to get them on other keys
15:47:45 * flo-retina is very confused about what he wants to implement today
15:48:00 <instantbot> clokep@gmail.com denied review for attachment 3004 on bug 2228.
15:48:01 <instantbot> Bug https://bugzilla.instantbird.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2228 enh, --, ---, aleth, ASSI, Don't handle incoming data synchronously
15:48:10 <clokep> flo-retina: Something fun! :)
15:48:20 <flo-retina> clokep: that was the plan
15:48:46 <flo-retina> but I wanted to do something that would be 1. Immediately useful. 2. The first stone for something bigger I really want.
15:49:13 <flo-retina> but thinking again about the implementation of what I had in mind, crawling the whole logs for that is stupid, looking only at the most recent one would be enough.
15:49:44 <flo-retina> alright, let me explain the whole idea.
15:50:04 <flo-retina> I want to have (tab) completion in the input box for all words.
15:50:24 <flo-retina> so if I start typing a long word that I've already used before, I want it to autocomplete
15:50:33 <clokep> Like a cell phone.
15:50:36 <clokep> Yes, I'd like that too.
15:50:38 <flo-retina> If I type words that frequently go together, I want the completion to know what's next
15:50:47 <flo-retina> yes like my nexus 4 does for text messages
15:51:03 <flo-retina> unfortunately there are several key missing parts for that
15:51:20 <flo-retina> 1. I want the possible completion to be displayed in gray text (I hoped I could convince aleth to implement it for me ;)).
15:51:40 <flo-retina> 2. I need to build a database of the words often said (together) by the user
15:52:30 <flo-retina> Unfortunately, I can predict that 2. will give crappy results if I don't do separate databases for each language the user uses.
15:52:46 <flo-retina> so the real dependency for 2. is to have auto-detection of the language of a conversation.
15:53:05 <aleth> (1 is actually somewhere on my tab complete todo list ;) Somewhere after "make it a module" unfortunately)
15:53:35 <flo-retina> so I thought I would use the algorithm of https://addons.mozilla.org/fr/thunderbird/addon/dictionary-switcher-for-thunde/ on the whole conversations, do decide how the data should be accounted for in the databases
15:54:01 --> mconley has joined #instantbird
15:54:26 <flo-retina> Problems: * that is a project in itself. * The spellchecker isn't really scriptable, and the scriptable code above it requires an editor :-(.
15:54:40 <aleth> Doing that well sounds Hard.
15:54:46 <flo-retina> so I would need to create a C++ XPCOM binding to be able to use the spellchecker in a JS component
15:54:47 * instantbot frowns at flo-retina
15:55:01 * flo-retina frowns at instantbot and its whole family.
15:55:42 <flo-retina> So... I wanted to work on that specific subproject today: crawling all the log history, to detect in which languages is each conversation.
15:55:50 <clokep> Be nice to instantbot, it's not his fault he's written in perl.
15:56:16 <flo-retina> and I thought that was a nice week-end project, because there would be a useful result: the spellchecker would be in the right language on all conversations!
15:56:44 <clokep> flo-retina: So...probably a silly question, but do you ever switch languages in a conversation or not really?
15:56:53 <clokep> I always use the same langauge. ;)
15:57:08 <flo-retina> But now that I'm thinking about this again to implement it, I notice that: 1. We can guess the right language for the spellchecker of the textbox by looking only at the most recent log. 2. If we need to set the spellcheck language of the textbox... we have an editor, so the C++ binding is pointless.
15:57:16 * aleth often has multiple languages in a single conversation
15:57:28 <flo-retina> clokep: I fully ignore the spellchecker because all the words have red underlines most of the time.
15:57:34 <aleth> Copypasting from English sites is enough to do that.
15:57:56 <clokep> aleth: Ah, I didn't even think of that. :)
15:57:57 * aleth has the spellchecker turned off
15:58:12 <flo-retina> aleth: yeah...
15:58:21 <flo-retina> so my project for today was mostly "make the spellchecker usable"
15:59:03 <aleth> flo-retina: What you'd really want maybe is "guess the language of the current textbox text"
15:59:21 <flo-retina> btw, multiple languages in a single conversation is not really a problem. I would set the language by default (ie. when the textbox is mostly empty) to the language used the most frequently in that conversation, and then adapt based on what has been typed/pasted.
15:59:23 <aleth> Then turn on the spellchecker after 5-6 words or whatever it takes
15:59:39 <flo-retina> aleth: "guess the language of the current textbox text" is what the Tb add-on already does
15:59:50 <aleth> OK, so why do you need to look at the conversation?
15:59:54 <flo-retina> there's very little porting work to do to get that
16:00:03 <aleth> Just remember the language of the previous message sent
16:00:14 <flo-retina> aleth: because IMs are often very short (too short for any detection to really work on only a single message)
16:00:53 <flo-retina> but yes, just getting the last 10 or 20 messages (from the most recent log) would be enough to have a decent result
16:00:59 <flo-retina> so crawling all the logs is mostly pointless...
16:01:16 <clokep> Sounds like Mook's issue of guessing encoding based on IDv3 tags.
16:01:23 <-- mconley has quit (Input/output error)
16:01:34 <flo-retina> and after all of these thoughts, I'm completely confused about what I can actually code today :(
16:02:06 <-- mpmc has quit (Quit: Instantbird 1.5a1pre -- http://www.instantbird.com)
16:03:11 <flo-retina> the parts I was interested in are really useful only if we can get next word completion/prediction.
16:03:29 <flo-retina> (scriptable spellchecker, crawling of the whole logs to get word data, ...)
16:03:38 * aleth wonders how often flo-retina actually uses words long enough to complete
16:04:02 <flo-retina> aleth: you just used 6 in this sentence
16:04:15 <aleth> None of which I would have wanted to complete
16:04:38 <flo-retina> aleth: you wouldn't complete them unless you have a visual indication that you could get them completed right.
16:04:48 <aleth> Wouldn't it break your typing rhythm to have to look and check if the completion suggested is accurate?
16:04:55 <clokep> No.
16:05:08 <flo-retina> aleth: when I'm right in front of the keyboard, I likely wouldn't bother completing
16:05:29 <flo-retina> aleth: if for some reason I'm typing with only one hand, or this laptop is not the one I'm right in front of, completing would be super useful
16:06:00 <flo-retina> aleth: I also suspect we may have users who aren't fast typers
16:06:12 <flo-retina> (hmm typists?)
16:06:43 <clokep> all those kids who dont use punctuation and stuff 4 u.
16:07:11 * clokep always wanted an extension that would s/u/you/ and s/teh/the/. ;)
16:07:30 <flo-retina> clokep: that would often be annoying, wouldn't it?
16:07:43 <clokep> Probably.
16:08:23 * flo-retina still hasn't started coding anything :-S
16:09:05 <clokep> flo-retina: So it might not be exactly useful, but you could (for now) just put the completion word in the status bar?
16:09:44 <flo-retina> poor status bar :)
16:09:58 <flo-retina> but yeah, that may work for an experiment
16:10:05 <clokep> I think it will. :)
16:10:22 <clokep> And maybe we can buy some beer / crayons for aleth and he'll do the tab complete thing. ;)
16:12:35 <flo-retina> maybe we can send him a laptop so that he starts handling the checkin-needed queue? ;)
16:12:54 <clokep> I don't mind doing that. :)...when pushing works. ;)
16:13:18 * flo-retina hasn't heard from even in the last hour
16:13:29 <flo-retina> (and last thing I head was related to some head ache :-/)
16:13:48 <clokep> :( Oh well, there's always tomorrow.
16:15:03 <flo-retina> maybe I should just port dao's add-on almost as is
16:15:12 <flo-retina> not sure if that should be an add-on or a patch
16:15:18 <flo-retina> I suspect we could just accept it by default
16:15:47 <clokep> Probably.
16:16:23 <aleth> Maybe not the status bar thing...
16:16:26 <flo-retina> hmm, maybe for a first completion experiment I should just not bother about the language and accept that _I_'ll get plenty of absurd completions
16:16:44 <flo-retina> aleth: I was talking about detecting the language and set the spellchecker to it
16:16:52 <aleth> Ah OK
16:16:59 <flo-retina> clokep: can you try pushing again?
16:17:01 <clokep> Those both sound like parallel things.
16:17:08 <flo-retina> aleth: that would do nothing if there's only one dictionary anyway
16:17:10 <clokep> flo-retina: Same thing.
16:17:13 <qheaden> Hello.
16:17:17 <clokep> Hello qheaden.
16:17:41 <Even> not a single error in error log :(
16:17:44 <qheaden> clokep: Thanks for the r+.
16:17:46 <Even> That's a gard one to figure out.

16:18:18 <flo-retina> are we logging in a different file for mercurial?

16:24:45 <aleth> clokep: I just put that part back in because I saw it in testing and don't think it's a network error in that circumstance.
16:24:59 <clokep> OK.
16:25:17 <flo-retina> clokep: anything I should review specifically in there?
16:25:31 <flo-retina> I think the isConnected check in onDataAvailable was directly my suggestion ;)
16:26:02 <aleth> It's the only way to avoid overriding that function ;)
16:26:56 <clokep> flo-retina: Just like it if you could look over it again. :)
16:27:42 * clokep wishes we had interdiff on Bugzilla.
16:27:46 * flo-retina thinkgs clokep can do it
16:27:54 <flo-retina> hmm
16:28:01 <flo-retina> maybe it's trivial to install on linux
16:28:03 <flo-retina> let's see
16:28:44 <clokep> aleth: So pretty much you found a bug in the onConnectionClosed code in IRC and fixed it?
16:29:06 <aleth> clokep: I guess so.
16:29:30 * clokep is glad to get rid of the overriding of methods. :)

16:29:51 <clokep> flo-retina: Oh, that was trivial. ;)
16:30:09 <aleth> interdiff works since when? :)
16:30:26 <aleth> another thing to thank Even for? ;)
16:30:26 <flo-retina> clokep: I looked at the Apache error log, it said "Can't exec "/usr/local/bin/interdiff": No such file or directory at Bugzilla/Attachment/PatchReader.pm"

16:36:33 <Even> Not a problem

16:47:13 <wnayes> Hello :) Most of the remaining fixes are related to Mac OS X theming, so I haven't had much luck figuring out what will fix them.
16:48:24 <clokep> Hmm...OK.
16:48:29 <clokep> We'd love to get that into 1.5! :)
16:48:33 <aleth> Sounds like it should land then.
16:48:52 <aleth> If you can't fix the Mac issues, it'll have to be a followup.
16:48:53 <clokep> I wonder if we can convince Florian or nhnt11 to take a look?
16:49:01 <flo-retina> aleth: or maybe I should just have a look ;)
16:49:52 <wnayes> I'd like it in 1.5 too :) I've fixed one of the review comments that isn't a theme issue (NickServ not having a status line)
16:50:19 <flo-retina> is this fix already in the attached patch?
16:51:40 <wnayes> flo-retina: No. I've been meaning to try copying most of the conv-large binding and see if that will fix the theme issues too.

17:24:23 <aleth> One hand stays with the teacup...
17:25:10 <aleth> That was an unexpectedly simple fix for that blocker

17:26:01 --> jb1 has joined #instantbird
17:26:41 <flo-retina> aleth: it just needed someone to take time to actually look into it ;)
17:26:53 <flo-retina> clokep: yes I was. aleth: yes I want completion ;).

17:27:50 <clokep> You need to install the convert extension.

17:28:53 <instantbot> Bug https://bugzilla.instantbird.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2179 maj, --, 1.5, aleth, RESO FIXED, JS Error when reordering buddies inside a contact
17:28:57 <clokep> flo-retina: Looks like we need to install the convert extension?
17:29:31 <flo-retina> clokep: I thought it shipped with mercurial by default and one just needed to enable it in .hgrc
17:29:43 <flo-retina> which seems strange given that these files were just copied over from the old server
17:29:46 <clokep> flo-retina: Maybe you're right. :)
17:29:52 <clokep> I forget these things.
17:30:24 <flo-retina> "abort: could not lock repository /mercurial/instantbird/l10n/en-US: Permission denied"  is also interesting ;)
17:30:42 <clokep> Yes, that's also interesting. :)

17:35:52 --> mpmc has joined #instantbird
17:37:44 --> docpimpmaster_ has joined #instantbird
17:37:53 <flo-retina> should be fixed
17:37:59 <flo-retina> where is aleth's new patch? :-P
17:38:19 <clokep> :P
17:38:25 <clokep> You can r+ my moz25 patch? ;)
17:38:58 <flo-retina> it puzzles me that the sw:1.5 list is full of stull we already know we don't want, and doesn't contain the awesomebugs we do want
17:39:01 <flo-retina> clokep: no? :)
17:39:14 <flo-retina> clokep: I thought you said it didn't build with gmake :-S
17:39:37 <clokep> flo-retina: I don't think it does. :(
17:39:49 * aleth has no more ideas for bug 2186

17:55:35 <aleth> Probably changing something around behind the scenes, as it was working before ;)
17:55:39 <flo-retina> fixed?
17:55:49 <aleth> indeed :)
17:58:26 <flo-retina> it's so annoying that rebuilding purple/ randomly fails since the moz.build patch :(
18:00:53 <flo-retina> heh, my debug build still has custom warnings

18:34:41 <wnayes> Hmm, here's an error I've gotten twice now building on windows: http://pastebin.instantbird.com/417047
18:35:29 <wnayes> I think there's a way to disable bonjour building that might get me past this...
18:36:09 <clokep> --disable-bonjour
18:36:15 <clokep> But I don't see why you'd be getting that. :(
18:43:28 <-- docpimpmaster_ has quit (Connection reset by peer)
18:47:12 <flo-retina> clokep, wnayes: looks like some include paths are wrong there :-S
18:47:28 <flo-retina> The file the compiler is looking for is in bonjour/win32/
18:47:40 <flo-retina> and I don't see that folder in the include directories on the command line of the compiler
18:47:48 <clokep> Why would it work OK on my machine though?
18:48:03 <flo-retina> clokep: maybe the Apple SDK is installed in your system folder?
18:48:21 <flo-retina> clokep: it's not clear why it would work on my thinkpad and the buildbot slave though
18:48:36 <clokep> I think I had it installed on Windows 7, not 8.
18:49:34 <flo-retina> http://lxr.instantbird.org/instantbird/source/purple/libpurple/protocols/bonjour/Makefile.in#32 should do it
18:50:54 <flo-retina> could also be srcdir that's messed up, as I see purple/libpurple/win32 in the command line
18:51:17 <flo-retina> but that would logically be from http://lxr.instantbird.org/instantbird/source/purple/libpurple/Makefile.in#28
18:52:19 <flo-retina> wnayes: when you say "an error I've gotten twice", do you mean twice in a row and it's blocking you, or twice out of more attempts (ie. it's not deterministic)?
18:53:51 <wnayes> flo-retina: I haven't been able to get past it yet. Not sure how to get the --disable-bonjour flag to work either :S
18:54:28 <-- dionisos has quit (Ping timeout)
18:54:54 <flo-retina> well, don't try, it would force you to rebuild. You can just change the path at http://lxr.instantbird.org/instantbird/source/purple/libpurple/protocols/bonjour/dns_sd_proxy.h#34
18:55:01 <flo-retina> add a win32/ in there, and it should compile
18:58:49 <wnayes> Hmm, I ran configure again after adding the flag but that didn't seem to work. But now that I've opened/closed the bash window I think the disable applied and I was able to build :)
19:01:57 <aleth> qheaden: any thoughts on https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/mozilla.support.instantbird/osW5truz2EI ?
19:02:42 <clokep> Oh, right. I meant to ask him that. :)
19:08:02 <qheaden> aleth: My mom gets this all of the time. Those are buddy requests, not chat requests.
19:08:18 <qheaden> Wasn't there a bug asking to change the message to someone wants to become your friend or something?
19:08:31 <qheaden> YMSG seems to get spammed quite a bit.
19:08:56 <clokep> It would be nice to support blocking in a non-sucky way.
19:09:35 <aleth> qheaden: The message is misleading, and there's a bug about that, but that doesn't solve the blocking issue
19:09:54 <clokep> We don't have to solve everything at once.
19:09:58 <qheaden> So we need to allow people to block friend requests altogether?
19:10:02 <clokep> If fixing the message makes it less confusing, let's do that.
19:10:16 <qheaden> Because spam requests use a different username each time. So blocking one user won't cut it.
19:10:16 <clokep> We need to figure out what the issue is and solve it. ;)
19:10:54 <aleth> Blocking everybody not already a buddy means if everyone uses IB nobody ever gets to be a buddy ;)
19:11:21 <clokep> So protocols have an option to disable people requesting to talk to you, I believe.
19:11:31 <flo-retina> clokep: I still don't understand how changing the message would make it less confusing
19:11:35 <flo-retina> I think it would just make it wrong.
19:11:42 <clokep> flo-retina: What is the message now?
19:11:50 * qheaden goes to eat.
19:11:53 <aleth> "x would like to talk to you"
19:11:55 <flo-retina> Username wants to chat with you Allow/deny
19:12:02 <flo-retina> yeah, would like
19:12:04 <flo-retina> that's even better :)
19:12:14 * aleth wonders what qheaden's Mum thinks the solution is
19:12:19 <flo-retina> lol
19:13:09 <aleth> "x would like to add you to their contacts" ?
19:15:52 <flo-retina> aleth: that's more misleading

19:16:48 <clokep> I guess I'm not entirely sure what the request is trying to ask.
19:17:16 <flo-retina> clokep: the guy is trying to create a spam filter by tweaking a good string to make it fit what he had in mind at the time
19:17:39 <clokep> flo-retina: What?
19:17:56 <flo-retina> he's annoyed by spam, so he wants us to change a string.
19:18:03 <clokep> I think you misunderstood my comment.
19:18:04 <flo-retina> That makes no sense to me, and IMHO the bug is INVALID.
19:18:11 <flo-retina> aaaaaaah!
19:18:12 <clokep> I'm saying what is Instantbird trying to ask the user?
19:18:16 <flo-retina> yes, wrong meaning of "request"
19:18:39 <flo-retina> clokep: we generally don't have a clue :)
19:18:44 <clokep> :)
19:19:15 <flo-retina> clokep: on some prpls, granting the request will allow the username to talk to you. On some others (where everybody can talk to you anyway), granting will allow the username to see your status.
19:19:37 <clokep> It sounds to me like these should be two separate requests. :(
19:19:46 <flo-retina> I think assuming that someone who wants to see your status would like to talk to you at some point is a reasonable assumption
19:20:42 <flo-retina> so really, we are saying "username blablablahblah, are you happy with this? Yes/no"
19:24:27 <clokep> The way we handle all of that sucks anyway. :(

20:37:21 <Mic> I either tab to the convbrowser if the input box has content or (shame on me) I Ctrl+A,Ctrl+X it and scroll then ;)

22:29:36 <clokep> In the objdir or srcdir?
22:29:44 <flo-retina> src dir
22:42:24 <flo-retina> is it possible to JSON.stringify a Map?
22:43:49 <clokep> I do not believe so.
22:45:05 <flo-retina> my emacs JS highlighter dislikes for .. of :(
22:46:08 <clokep> :-/ That's frustrating.
22:47:01 <flo-retina> hmm, I think I have all I need on the back-end to suggest word completions
22:47:53 <clokep> :) That was fast!
22:48:01 <flo-retina> well, at least I have code that after a full log sweep can dump the list of words I ever said, and how many times I said them
22:48:08 <flo-retina> and it's possible to access that list by prefix
22:48:23 <flo-retina> so now I need to do the broken UI stuff
22:48:33 <flo-retina> and the communication between UI and component and worker
22:48:44 <clokep> "the broken UI stuff"?
22:48:51 <flo-retina> showing the completion in the status bar
22:52:51 <clokep> Oh! I thought you meant you broke the UI. :)
22:53:40 <flo-retina> I have no idea of what that code will become after I finish it
22:53:46 <flo-retina> I'll likely attach it as a patch
22:53:55 <flo-retina> but with such a broken UI it wouldn't be landable
22:54:23 <flo-retina> it may be possible to convert it to an add-on

23:13:54 <flo-retina> that may be possible though
23:15:04 <Mic> Good night!
23:15:08 <flo-retina> good night :)
23:15:32 <Mic> I don't even want to start to think what cases and edge-cases you'd need to consider then ;)

23:31:04 <flo-retina> I had only one connected account (a JS-IRC one)
23:31:20 <flo-retina> my completion code caused an exception in the conv window when I pressed Command+Q
23:31:27 <flo-retina> and that crashed at shutdown... in libpurple!
23:31:34 <flo-retina> I don't even see how that's possible :-S
23:31:44 <flo-retina> clokep: do you still have your favorite shutdown crashers? ;)
23:32:03 <clokep> flo-retina: Sometimes.
23:32:11 <flo-retina> maybe this would be an opportunity to debug
