[19:08]<dyguw>smellyhippy: Where do you live? US?
[19:08]<sdnffdxdlld>nahhhh UK
[19:09]<fyfuym-syfggag>did msn just go for a ball of shit?
[19:10]<dyguw>smellyhippy: okay
[19:11]<wyfaj><smellyhippy> I prefere desktops ... they have so much more power -> i agree... but sometimes (often i hope) you dont really have a choice though :)
[19:11]<sdnffdxdlld>yeah I had to have a laptop for my current job
[19:11]<sdnffdxdlld>but thats because they are worried of break ins and getting all the stuff nicked hehe
[19:11]<wyfaj>why? going to clients on site etc?
[19:12]<wyfaj>ah
[19:12]<wyfaj>weird... that doesnt make much sense
[19:12]<sdnffdxdlld>aye
[19:12]<wyfaj>surely it's be more effective to spend the money on better security
[19:12]<sdnffdxdlld>but such is the way of the world
[19:12]<wyfaj>heh
[19:12]<sdnffdxdlld>nahhhh we just got less powerful machines rather than them spending more ;)
[19:12]<sdnffdxdlld>I've been kicking up a fuss about 512 of ram
[19:13]<sdnffdxdlld>the boss ordered 1gig but one of the directors decided we'd have 512 the same as everyone else
[19:13]<wyfaj>ouch
[19:14]<wyfaj>being limited by hardware is frustrating and probably sucks for productivity :)
[19:14]<sdnffdxdlld>aye the director asked why i was staring at the screen and not typing so i deminstrated how long it takes to open a table for editing in sql when you have 20meg of ram left hehe
[19:14]<sdnffdxdlld>yeah it sucks hard
[19:14]<sdnffdxdlld>ideally I'd want a dual core system with 2 gig of ram and a decent 7.2k hdd
[19:15]<sdnffdxdlld>thats not major money either
[19:15]<nvzzfzsv>7.2k is not enough. you want 10k or 15k for some real performnace.
[19:15]<sdnffdxdlld>i'm not talking latest chips ... just decent
[19:15]<wyfaj>hm.. well if you director is asking you why you're starting at the screen i think you have much bigger problems though :P
[19:15]<fyfuym-syfggag>smellyhippy I have a p4 mobile
[19:15]<fyfuym-syfggag>the dothan processor
[19:15]<sdnffdxdlld>yeah but i dont need "real performance" lol i just need things to load quickly ;)
[19:15]<nvzzfzsv>I wish MSTSC supported dual heads so I could RDP to a server with 4G and RAID10 on 15k drives and develop there.
[19:16]<sdnffdxdlld>hehe picking me up on spelling mistakes is too easy, -1 point ofr you wilco ;)
[19:16]<wyfaj>spelling mistakes?
[19:16]<fyfuym-syfggag>smellyhippy's I must say I am very impressed with this little machine
[19:17]<sdnffdxdlld>oh that was your mistake not mine!
[19:17]<wyfaj>if you're talking about starting/staring, then im the only that made a typo not you
[19:17]<sdnffdxdlld>lol
[19:17]<wyfaj>heh
[19:17]<fyfuym-syfggag>but its runs 667mhz ddr 2
[19:17]<sdnffdxdlld>pft my brain sucks
[19:17]<fyfuym-syfggag>so that might be why it eats my 2.6 amd athlon
[19:17]<wyfaj>just saying that if your director is keeping such a close eye on you... that must suck
[19:17]<sdnffdxdlld>nahhh he doesnt keep a close eye ... he was just walking past
[19:18]<wyfaj>:P
[19:18]<wyfaj>can I get my point back?
[19:18]<sdnffdxdlld>to be fair to the place they are very flexable and understand that I know how to improve my productivity better than they do
[19:18]<sdnffdxdlld>wilco +2 (an extra one for making me look so crap :P)
[19:18]<wyfaj>awesome
[19:19]<fyfuym-syfggag>fuck
[19:19]<sdnffdxdlld>please
[19:19]<fyfuym-syfggag>I just tried to use intellisense in msn
[19:19]<sdnffdxdlld>lol
[19:19]<dyguw>Liquid-Silence: eh, how? :)
[19:19]<sdnffdxdlld>i often try to save in applications with ctrl-shift-b
[19:19]<fyfuym-syfggag>cntl + space
[19:19]<dyguw>haha
[19:19]<fyfuym-syfggag>to see if it auto completes
[19:19]<fyfuym-syfggag>lol
[19:19]<fyfuym-syfggag>and when I work in ms work
[19:20]<fyfuym-syfggag>I aslo do cntrl+shit... to build the document
[19:20]<dyguw>nice
[19:20]<fyfuym-syfggag>damn
[19:20]<fyfuym-syfggag>too much VS here
[19:20]<sdnffdxdlld>use notepad then :P
[19:21]<dyguw>ugh
[19:21]<dyguw>What do you say about comments, use them or not?
[19:21]<dyguw>Should I comment my work?
[19:21]<fyfuym-syfggag>I comment stuff
[19:21]<mjzymygo>Is the world round?
[19:21]<sdnffdxdlld>I comment where needed ... so most of the time just a simple explination of what something does or what each line does if its really complex
[19:22]<nvzzfzsv>studio with coderush and refactor pro can't be beat.
[19:22]<mjzymygo>GhostDoc is a nice little tool...
[19:22]<sdnffdxdlld>unless I'm teaching someone, in which case i comment everything in a class
[19:22]<dyguw>Moridin8: ?
[19:23]<wyfaj>doesnt ghostdoc just generate something rather useless based on the name you picked?
[19:23]<wyfaj>or is there more to it?
[19:23]<fyfuym-syfggag>smellyhippy I do dumb comments
[19:23]<fyfuym-syfggag>lol
[19:23]<fyfuym-syfggag>like // loop through the rows
[19:23]<fyfuym-syfggag>and // do magic
[19:23]<fyfuym-syfggag>and // I dont know why I have to do this
[19:23]<mjzymygo>wilco: yeh it does, but its a start and saves some typing. its a productivity tool more than anything too flash.
[19:23]<mjzymygo>I did say 'little tool'
[19:23]<fyfuym-syfggag>. // but it seems to work
[19:25]<sdnffdxdlld>i use "//you shouldnt ever do this! but i dont have time to do a proper job right now" alot hehe
[19:25]<mjzymygo>smippy: me too...
[19:25]<dyguw>I don't comment at all
[19:25]<dyguw>I hate it, it's too boring
[19:25]<sdnffdxdlld>minux it also makes your code much harder to maintain
[19:25]<mjzymygo>also // Ignore this, it's a fudge due to deadlines. Refactor at first opportunity...
[19:26]<dyguw>smellyhippy: indeed
[19:26]<wyfaj>// HACK :)
[19:27]<mjzymygo>Minux: I've worked for companies that would give you written warnings for not commenting code... repeated offenses would be treated as gross mis-conduct
[19:27]<dyguw>lol
[19:27]<fyfuym-syfggag>Moridin8 I also used that
[19:27]<fyfuym-syfggag>lol
[19:27]<mjzymygo>this is more common than i'd like: // ICK! Please kick me for this monstrosity!
[19:28]<mjzymygo>and: // YES ok... i'm using a pointer... shoot me.
[19:28]<nvzzfzsv>Moridin8: OMG /unsafe!
