diana_coman: whaack: add the patch+context to the write-up, sure; re tired, you'll have to figure it out but focused work can do that at times, lol; break/refresh/nap even helps. [04:46]
diana_coman: jfw: the article is not bad at all; how was it timewise and/or feet dragging-wise? [05:19]

whaack: diana_coman: ack re adding patch+context to write up. as to the tired thing - i did take a break (in the form of a short surf session) and i came back with more energy. I am surprised you'd suggest a nap, i've always considered napping a bad idea that is to be avoided if possible [11:52]
diana_coman: whaack: why? [11:55]
diana_coman: "if tired then go to sleep" doesn't change just because it's 3 pm or something; sure, a needed nap, not a full-blown siesta or something. [11:57]
whaack: diana_coman: The main reason is because then one may have trouble falling asleep later [11:57]
whaack: diana_coman: also because there's some startup/wind down cost to sleeping, so it's better to do it all in one go [11:58]
diana_coman: but seriously, even at 18, after 6 hours of Uni-level Maths at our prof's rather unrelenting pace (peppered with "this is obvious, won't go in detail, you'll figure it out yourselves in time for the exam), I *needed* 20 minutes nap, lol [11:58]
diana_coman: whaack: what you are describing is not nap though [11:59]
whaack: right i am thinking on the 1.5 hour scale not 20 min scale [11:59]
diana_coman: needed nap is exactly that, basically a system shutdown to refresh; fall down and sleep, wake up 15/20 minutes later without any alarm clock or anything. [11:59]
diana_coman: neah, 15-20 minutes thing; it makes though a significant difference. [12:00]
diana_coman: hence my above: *not a siesta*! [12:00]
diana_coman: lolz [12:00]
whaack: haha [12:00]
whaack: i never use alarm clocks, unless i have to catch a flight or something [12:01]
diana_coman: alternatively, you figure out what refresh works best for you, but it has to work and fast enough too. [12:01]
whaack: i'll give the 20 min nap a shot next time i feel similarly [12:02]
diana_coman: all right. [12:02]
diana_coman: re clocks, what can I say, generally I can rely on internal alarm clock to even wake up within ~5 minutes of desired time but I don't think it's an absolutely needed skill for everyone otherwise, lol. [12:05]
whaack: really, 5 mins? that is impressive. i don't know much about sleep cycles, but I have a suspicion that it's better to wake up at the moment one wakes up naturally than from an interrupt w/ an alarm clock. So even if I do have an alarm clock set, if I wake up with <1 hour remaining until the target time, I turn off the alarm clock and just get up at that moment. [12:09]
whaack: diana_coman: For my writeup of the pseudocode I am going to only detail how the bot works on a per-network basis. This is because I am restructuring how I coordinate the orchestra of bots. I will include a section on what went wrong with the current orchestration strategy (each network having their own process) and describe possible solutions + the one i'm going with + why [12:18]
diana_coman: whaack: 'twas more of a side effect really, never aimed as such for it or anything of the sort; and sure, it works under normal circumstances (ie it certainly wouldn't have worked - not that I even *tried* it, ffs - when extremely tired as in will fall asleep if I as much as lean on a wall for 1 second). [12:18]
diana_coman: whaack: sounds good. [12:18]

whaack: diana_coman: The writeup is looking like it's going to take the better portion of the day, but it has already been a fruitful exercise. There are problems I've discovered from not having fully digested ircbot. [14:52]
diana_coman: whaack: heh, sounds exactly as expected :P [15:13]
diana_coman: so yeah, do it anyway. [15:13]
whaack: diana_coman: yeah, i expected you had expected this outcome, lol [15:32]
whaack: and i even bet you're not surprised that i am not surprised that you expected this [15:34]
jfw: diana_coman: I was pleased with the improvement in the article quality dimension, unfortunately the time wastage did not improve. I find I engaged in various other chats first, which surely could have waited a bit longer, then once started I let it drag on about 3 hours. I recall this being mostly pondering & obsessing & some re-reading & outlining at first, then once I got moving it wasn't so [15:46]
jfw: bad. [15:46]
jfw: This then came at the expense of the wallet work time. [15:47]
diana_coman: jfw: yeah, you need to learn to just get moving; time for pondering is when you go for a walk/set aside time specifically/can't do anything else anyway, that sort of thing but not when you should just start on something; takes some practice though, like everything else. [15:50]
diana_coman: whaack: ahaha; who do you find to do that bet with? :D [15:50]
jfw: isn't taking the bet [15:51]
diana_coman: dorion: you alive under that mountain of writing you set for yourself for this weekend? lolz [15:51]
whaack: xd i found a few fools in my truck full of logs [15:51]
jfw: diana_coman: I expect I'll have plenty more opportunity to practice the just starting. [15:53]
diana_coman: jfw: certainly; will you take the opportunity to do exactly the just starting though? [15:53]
diana_coman: (and yeah, I noticed and fully appreciated your help yesterday in the logs but it did ring the bell, hence the q today) [15:54]
jfw: I'll do my best & let it improve from there. [15:54]
diana_coman: sounds good. [15:55]
jfw: I'm limiting my goal for reviews for today to just the wayward December week, as I still have all the usual to finish as well. So it'll be two days of two of those practice opportunities, heh. [15:59]
diana_coman: now that's properly setting yourself up at least on the count-your-opportunities side ! [15:59]
jfw: will be at keyboard but focused elsewhere unless requested. [16:01]
diana_coman: perfect. [16:01]
