you all remember spilth. he released a game: https://github.com/spilth/astrosmash-java |
| 02:14 |
|
pdurbin |
see also his post about it: https://plus.google.com/112383017680227997640/posts/bqAu2tpJYjk |

sounds like his code is based on http://zetcode.com/tutorials/javagamestutorial/ |

any pythonistas around? |
| 12:30 |
|
pdurbin |
I converted a script from perl to python but I fear it's not pythonic enough |
| 12:30 |
|
pdurbin |
I never worry about this with perl. I feel more free to express myself :) |
| 12:47 |

pdurbin: I'm not really a pythonista but I could take a look |
| 12:50 |

aditsu: here you go: https://github.com/pdurbin/scripts/blob/master/redmine-all |

I figured if it's in Python it'll "just work" for more people. batteries included and all that |
| 12:51 |
|
pdurbin |
"old batteries included" I've heard people joke :) |
| 12:53 |
|
aditsu |
old batteries? |
| 12:53 |
|
pdurbin |
not the latest modules |
| 12:53 |
|
pdurbin |
old modules people don't want to use anymore |
| 12:54 |
|
aditsu |
anyway, lgtm; about the KeyError stuff, depending on how you expect to get the error, you might be able to use get instead |
| 12:54 |
|
pdurbin |
get is more pythonic? |
| 12:55 |
|
aditsu |
I'm not sure, but I think it's simpler |
| 12:55 |
|
aditsu |
but since you have 2 [] accesses, I'm not sure if it's worth changing |
| 12:56 |
|
pdurbin |
I don't mind changing it to be the "right" way |
| 12:56 |

-- PEP 20 -- The Zen of Python - http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0020/ |
| 12:57 |
|
aditsu |
I'm not an authority on that; it doesn't look broken to me, so no need to fix it :) |
| 12:57 |
|
pdurbin |
:) |
| 12:58 |
|
aditsu |
also for the long print, you could consider using % (python's printf), depending on your preference |
| 12:59 |
|
pdurbin |
right, the "string-formatting operator" |
| 12:59 |
|
aditsu |
uh... apparently that's being deprecated in favor of str.format() |
| 13:00 |
|
pdurbin |
huh |
| 13:02 |
|
aditsu |
hey, do you know any nice clock program with multiple features? (alarms, timer, chrono, resizable, different designs) |
| 13:04 |
|
pdurbin |
for linux? |
| 13:04 |
|
aditsu |
yes or portable |
| 13:05 |
|
pdurbin |
not really. you might want to ask in #crimsonfu or #linuxvillage |
| 13:05 |
|
aditsu |
well, I'm actually writing one :) |
| 13:06 |
|
pdurbin |
nice. and it's portable? |
| 13:06 |
|
aditsu |
I'm writing it in java |
| 13:06 |
|
aditsu |
with no OS-specific stuff |
| 13:08 |
|
pdurbin |
cool. what's the state of java on the desktop these days? on mac os x mountain lion java was not installed by default. same with windows and linux, I think. users have to install java themselves, right? |
| 13:08 |
|
aditsu |
yeah I think so.. |
| 13:09 |
|
aditsu |
most moderately-savvy users probably have it already, but "dumb users" may not |
| 13:10 |
|
aditsu |
oh, and a few savvy users refuse to install java |
| 13:10 |
|
pdurbin |
I dunno, the savvy users might be installing Java... after all the recent vulnerabilities |
| 13:10 |
|
pdurbin |
er, might be uninstalling Java, I meant to say |
| 13:12 |
|
aditsu |
unfortunately the press reports generally don't make any distinction between java (the jre/jdk) and the java plugin |
| 13:12 |
|
pdurbin |
yeah |
| 13:14 |
|
aditsu |
I don't know how many reacted to those news (and how they reacted), I did nothing :) |
| 13:14 |
|
pdurbin |
I kinda need Java installed to write Java :) |
| 13:15 |
|
aditsu |
the fact that I'm still using java 6 is mitigating many of those vulnerabilities too |
| 13:16 |
|
pdurbin |
heh. me too |
| 14:02 |
|
aditsu |
pdurbin: version 0.1: http://www.aditsu.com/clock/ :) |
| 14:28 |
|
pdurbin |
aditsu: very nice |
| 14:28 |
|
pdurbin |
web start? who uses web start? |
| 14:30 |
|
aditsu |
I do |
| 14:33 |
|
pdurbin |
if in more pythonic than except KeyError · 4222c0f · pdurbin/scripts - https://github.com/pdurbin/scripts/commit/4222c0f |
| 14:33 |
|
pdurbin |
(or so I'm told) |
| 14:34 |
|
aditsu |
um, ok :) |
