don't punch me for asking an idiotic question but is there a reason why that youtube parser can't be done by a small bash script using curl, grep and sort?

other than having to use a linux of course

technically anything can be done in bash, as it is turing complete. but if you actually do it in bash you're an idiot and you should kill yourself

does that clarify things?

i actually got into collecting this stuff because i stumbled on a youtube of monkey island intro being played on a mt32 which sounds heaps better than the adlib

java

people are going to mention p-pangs and they're wrong. p-pangs have poo poo libraries and libraries are the most important thing. my theory is that p-langers don't know that they have poo poo libraries cause they've never experienced anything better

p.s. safari autocorrected p-langs to p-pangs but i left it that way. its fitting

scala and groovy can easily be invoked as scripting languages, and they get you j-lang performance/libraries without j-lang hassle

still better choices than bash.

I'm gonna do Principles of Reactive Programming (in Scala, taught by martin odersky who designed scala) which starts on Nov. 4 because I've played a bit with elm and it's really fuckin cool but also making major breaking changes every release still and only compiles to jabascript so I want to see what you can do with stuff like that on the jvm

see the problem with using java is i have to have java installed on my system and as much as i love security holes

i guess it probably wouldn't be that hard to unzip the poo poo to a directory hidden away somewhere on the pc and use it as a temporary addition to PATH and then delete the PATH entry / directory when i'm done

but why the gently caress should i go through all that work just so i don't need to install something because the company apparently thinks that bundling ask toolbar is a legit cool thing to do and that security holes are OK
edit: basically gently caress sun and java

edit: and c# is already installed and poo poo

You might try looking at DesignSpark PCB, but it's also Windows-only (runs in Linux under Wine). One arguable benefit is it can read Eagle formats. DipTrace may be able to cope with Eagle formats too, I don't know (never used DipTrace).

diptrace will eat eagle libraries and thats all i really cared about, diptrace is probably fine but the neckbeard in me just doesnt want things to run in wine

i'm doing this thing where i'm creating a wireless ap out of a raspberry pi and from it an openvpn tunnel to my place of work so that all of my personal traffic will travel through the openvpn server at work.

on this server i plan to run some kind of pcap stuff to gather information about my network usage, web browsing habits, etc., but i can't think of anything really interesting to do with it. my first idea was to create a web page that had graphs, and call it nsaid. a friend also suggested using twitter to create a realtime broadcast of my browser history, but that seems like it would be interesting for about two minutes.

anyone have any ideas for something interesting?
