17:43 aditsu \me raises hand
17:43 * aditsu raises hand
17:43 aditsu grr... it shows that I'm tired
17:45 aditsu ironcamel: you just started a while ago?
17:45 pdurbin tired? where?
17:46 aditsu pdurbin: 2 lines above that
17:47 pdurbin aditsu: any public link? can we see your status :)
17:48 aditsu https://code.google.com/codejam/contest/2270488/scoreboard?c=2270488
17:49 aditsu my rank changes depending on other people's submissions, if you're registered then you can add me as a "friend" and it shows you my score
17:49 aditsu I don't know if there's a "permalink" to my status
17:49 aditsu currently it says rank 3649 with 115 points
17:53 pdurbin cool
17:53 aditsu 135 points now :)
17:56 aditsu I have 7 submissions in 7 different languages :p
17:56 pdurbin !
17:56 aditsu but I don't know if I can do any more
17:57 aditsu (there are 9 things to submit)
17:57 pdurbin I'm playing Candy Land with my 6 year old
18:07 pdurbin having an interesting conversation about writing Qt apps: http://irclog.perlgeek.de/crimsonfu/2013-04-13#i_6700477
18:09 pdurbin I forgot Qt has its own IDE
18:13 ironcamel aditsu: yeah, i just started
18:13 ironcamel i have 40 points so far, so i guess i qualify for the next round
18:14 pdurbin people can start whenever they want? not all at once?
18:14 ironcamel aditsu: 7 languages, wow nice
18:14 ironcamel pdurbin: the first round you can do within 24 hours, anytime
18:14 ironcamel the qualification round i mean
18:14 pdurbin ah. ok
18:15 * pdurbin wonders what the 7 languages are
18:17 aditsu ironcamel: assuming your A large is correct :)
18:18 ironcamel they give points for the large problems without verifying?
18:18 aditsu for now, yes
18:18 ironcamel thats weird
18:18 aditsu you'll know if it's correct at the end of the round
18:18 ironcamel people will think they qualify, and quit
18:19 aditsu not if they pay attention
18:19 aditsu pdurbin: the languages? let's see.. javascript, python, pascal, C++, golfscript, groovy, java
18:20 pdurbin crimsonfubot: lucky golfscript
18:20 crimsonfubot pdurbin: http://golfscript.com/
18:22 aditsu I'm compiling scala at the moment.. almost choking my laptop
18:23 pdurbin :)
18:24 pdurbin scala sounds pretty cool
18:24 aditsu it's a powerful language, but the syntax is a bit weird
18:27 pdurbin aditsu: what's the next language you want to learn?
18:29 aditsu hm.. not sure.. among the languages that I practically don't know at all, I would probably start with haskell
18:29 pdurbin cool. O
18:29 pdurbin whoops
18:29 pdurbin I'm thinking about haskell too
18:29 aditsu J is quite intriguing but I'm afraid it will blow up my brain
18:30 pdurbin I like this post about haskell: http://joeyh.name/blog/entry/no_longer_a_perl_programmer/
18:30 * pdurbin looks at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/J_%28programming_language%29
18:30 aditsu oh, scheme is also pretty high on the list
18:32 pdurbin yeah, some scheme would be good for me
18:32 pdurbin westmaas: ^^
18:45 westmaas pdurbin: :D
18:52 pdurbin westmaas: what's your next language?
20:27 aditsu 190 points.. I'll stop here and get some sleep
20:30 pdurbin :)
