| kanzure | fenn: i'd be happy to drop you some python scripts if you want to scrape | 00:04 |

| ybit | i know i've seen better computer setups then this one http://freshome.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/07/netsurfer-chair.jpg | 00:07 |
| ybit | i'm looking for some type of similar style, the kind that you ly back in | 00:08 |
| ybit | er, lie | 00:08 |
| fenn | i am attempting to understand why you linked to that youtube video | 00:09 |
| ybit | kanzure: drop me some scripts because you just want to | 00:10 |
| kanzure | fenn: well, i was complaining to someone about STL | 00:10 |
| fenn | heh ybit i dunno about having the case directly between my legs | 00:10 |
| kanzure | and they thought i needed some "triangle therapy" | 00:10 |
| ybit | fenn: yeah, that's terrible | 00:10 |
| ybit | i just know though that i've seen some type of 'futuristic' setup what would be comfortable | 00:11 |
| ybit | s/what/that | 00:11 |
| kanzure | ybit: http://designfiles.org/~bryan/okcupid/ | 00:13 |
| kanzure | you'll have to do some work, they aren't stand-alone | 00:13 |
| kanzure | i.e. make a few directories and files probably | 00:13 |
| fenn | what do these scripts do exactly? | 00:15 |
| fenn | plot things in an easy to read format? | 00:15 |
| ybit | kanzure: #madscientists really? | 00:15 |
| kanzure | profile_viewer.py uses the search tool and visits all of the profiles | 00:15 |
| ybit | all the real scientists are hanging with me in #angryscientists :) | 00:15 |
| kanzure | interestingly enough, a percentage (about 10%) of everyone viewed tends to look at your profile in return | 00:16 |
| kanzure | profile_viewer.py also saves a list of usernames | 00:16 |
| ybit | fenn: yes it is dead | 00:16 |
| kanzure | rater.py then goes through and collects per-user specific data, like match %, friend %, enemy %, etc. | 00:16 |
| kanzure | get_num_answered_questions.py then goes through *yet again* (on a separate page) to figure out how many questions the user answered | 00:17 |
| kanzure | this way you can sort by the number of questions they answered | 00:17 |
| kanzure | i.e. someone with a 98% match doesn't really matter if they only answered 2 questions | 00:17 |
| kanzure | but okcupid only gives you that feature if you pay them money | 00:17 |
| kanzure | obviously i disagreed with their philosophy on that one | 00:17 |
| fenn | yeah that's weak | 00:17 |
| kanzure | visualizer.py just spits it out into the http://designfiles.org/~bryan/okcupid/match.data format.. basically just sorted by one of the data points | 00:18 |
| fenn | not that any of these questions were worth answering | 00:18 |
| kanzure | but i was hoping to do a heat map, or other interesting things | 00:18 |
| fenn | i figure you could do better by astrological sign | 00:18 |
| kanzure | hm? | 00:18 |
| fenn | or blood type, or year sign | 00:18 |
| kanzure | actually when i sorted and selected by "Working on a masters program" or "PhD program" and age<22 i got some pretty neat results | 00:19 |
| fenn | you know, something that might actually have predictive power in determining whether you hate the other person or not | 00:19 |
| kanzure | oh, you can do that too | 00:19 |
| kanzure | i mean, they don't let you filter stuff out, only filter stuff in | 00:19 |
| kanzure | which is also pretty weak | 00:19 |
| kanzure | i wanted to do -"fucked up" on the keyword search, but alas | 00:19 |
| fenn | there are keywords? | 00:20 |
| kanzure | on the search page you can add a parameter or two.. but it's not a real search imho | 00:21 |
| ybit | look at how uncomfortable that setup is, i wouldn't last 5 mins: http://192.168.1.4/images/carnosaur2_1.png | 00:26 |
| ybit | http://ybit.ath.cx/images/carnosaur2_1.png | 00:26 |
| fenn | was that on stargate-sg1? | 00:28 |
| fenn | the one where daniel takes over the planet and nukes russia | 00:28 |
| QuantumG | it had to be done, I had his back | 00:30 |
| ybit | fenn: carnosaur | 00:31 |
| ybit | i know there was something like this as a computer setup: http://www.geekologie.com/2007/05/energy-pod.jpg | 00:32 |
| kanzure | hm fenn is a 33 year old man | 00:33 |

| ybit | that doesn't look luxurious, it looks painful | 00:39 |
| fenn | i had this dentist's chair for a while, with a swing out arm and hydraulic position adjustments | 00:39 |
| fenn | turns out it's hard to sit on a dentist's chair and do anything but lay there | 00:39 |
| fenn | there's not enough leverage to torque your body | 00:40 |
| fenn | so you end up scrambling like a turtle on its back | 00:40 |
| ybit | i'm lyind down flat on my back right now, it's highly comfortable | 00:41 |
| fenn | o rly | 00:41 |
| ybit | yes | 00:41 |
| fenn | i have scientifically proven that what you claim is impossible | 00:41 |
| ybit | the only annoying thing is having to prop the netbook up with my palms | 00:41 |
| fenn | aha! the truth comes out | 00:41 |
| ybit | yes, my legs are curved and my back isn't completely straight, it's kind of what you see in these links | 00:42 |
| ybit | but it's as close to flat on the back as you would imagine :P | 00:42 |
| ybit | and now i'm on my belly | 00:43 |
| ybit | thus the conundrum, i need a comfortable computing setup | 00:43 |

| fenn | "Imagine that scientists create a new drug. When swallowed as a pill, it will completely and permanently eliminate feelings of guilt for prior events. Testing reveals that there are no harmful medical side effects. How should this pill be distributed?" | 05:57 |
| fenn | a) Over the counter to anyone who wants it. b) By doctor's prescription only. c) It should not be distributed at all. | 05:58 |
| JayDugger | In the drinking water, worldwide. | 05:58 |
| fenn | e) in the drinking fountains at catholic schools | 05:59 |
| JayDugger | It'd resemble baptism for the remission of sins, for everyone who took. | 05:59 |
| JayDugger | Except it'd work. | 05:59 |
| JayDugger | We could make it a national holiday, "Forgiveness Day," and replace one of the pre-existing stupidities, like Christmas. | 05:59 |
| JayDugger | </cynic> | 05:59 |
| fenn | hey christmas is fun | 06:01 |
| fenn | hanging strips of torn apart human sacrifices on a tree, what could be better than that | 06:01 |
| JayDugger | I don't celebrate it. | 06:01 |
| JayDugger | Seriously...it's a holiday for Christians and for children. | 06:01 |
| JayDugger | I don't belong to either category anymore. I can give gifts on birthdays. I can see my family any time Skype works. | 06:02 |
| JayDugger | Oh, and I can eat a turkey dinner any day of the year. | 06:03 |

| JayDugger | What's that holiday mark? | 06:06 |
| fenn | massive summer squirtguns/water balloons/girls in wet t-shirts | 06:07 |
| JayDugger | Oh, it's a Thai holiday. | 06:07 |
| fenn | hell if i know the historical significance | 06:07 |
| JayDugger | Thai New Year, according to Wikipedia. | 06:07 |
| JayDugger | I think we call it "Spring Break in Daytona." | 06:08 |

| fenn | lowki is a druggie idiot, not a link spammer | 14:46 |
| kanzure | the spam bots tend to rape a wiki like that, "over and over again" | 14:46 |
