00:00 pdurbin they're so passionate in their hatred of databases. it's fascinating :)
01:39 aditsu there is a lot of misuse and abuse of databases, but it doesn't mean they're useless
01:41 aditsu http://www.jwz.org/blog/2011/07/mork-keeps-on-giving-when-the-database-worms-eat-into-your-murder-trial/
01:50 aditsu also, caching sounds like a wrong use for a database
02:02 pdurbin aditsu: interesting post. I guess you're saying databases can be surprisingly durable? :)
02:03 aditsu um.. that was not the point, but.. well, that too :p
02:14 aditsu heh, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mork_(file_format)
02:15 aditsu still alive in Thunderbird? T_T

19:00 pdurbin I'm using http://www.color-hex.com a bit today. works fine. maybe there's some better site for quickly picking an approximate hex color. or some built in app for mac or linux
19:21 raprasad_ joined #sourcefu
20:13 larsks I kind of like http://colorschemedesigner.com/ but it's not solving exactly the same problem.
20:31 aditsu I like http://blog.xkcd.com/2010/05/03/color-survey-results/
20:34 semiosis pdurbin: web development?
20:43 pdurbin semiosis: I work on a web app: http://thedata.harvard.edu
20:44 pdurbin larsks: thanks, I'll check it out in a bit
20:44 semiosis oh right. you might want to check out firefox plugins then
20:44 semiosis things that play nice with firebug
20:44 pdurbin i love firebug
20:44 semiosis +1
20:45 pdurbin i just don't know hex colors off the top of my head
20:46 semiosis work backwards.  use a color picker plugin for ffox that lets you tune the color live, then copy the value out of firebug
20:46 semiosis or use css-x-fire
20:46 semiosis google css-x-fire
20:46 crimsonfubot http://code.google.com/p/css-x-fire/
21:16 pdurbin wow, that xkcd post is nuts. awesome
21:22 * semiosis was once made fun of by a GF for calling a color "coral"
21:22 semiosis or was it salmon
22:37 pdurbin larsks: nice site. I could have used that too
