00:27 Gulopine is confused
00:27 Gulopine
when did declaring __unicode__ on a class break u'%s' % type(obj) ? :(
00:28 Gulopine
__str__ doesn't seem to have a problem, but __unicode__ apparently does

Newmaniese: Hey, did you get a chance to talk with brosner /
01:46 Alex_Gaynor
?
01:46 brosner
Alex_Gaynor: doing the show :)
01:46 brosner
yes he
01:46 Alex_Gaynor
Ah nice :)
01:47 Newmaniese
brosner: Good luck on the show!
01:48 Newmaniese
Alex_Gaynor: Didn't really get an answer about the test. I think brosner needs to look at this patch thoroughly once NFA hits.
01:49 Alex_Gaynor
Ok, /me hopes it hits soon :P
01:49 Newmaniese
We should all chat when he is done with the show. ME TOO!
01:52 Alex_Gaynor
Works for me

morning :-) whome should i nudge for triage on a localflavor addition? http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/6427 :-)
18:57 dwsBeta2_
quick sanity check. at svn 7922, should i expect 363 tests (from runtests.py)?

I am loving django, I am amazed that I haven't had to spend too much time digging into the framework, things make sense and I am spending most of my time on app logic. thanks for doing such a great job!
21:19 jacobkm
thebitguru: that's really awesome to hear -- thank you!
21:29 RaceCondition
brosner: why do you not like JavaScript?
21:29 RaceCondition
just curious
21:31 brosner
it is manageable with a framework. it has always seems brittle to me. it can produce some wonderful results, i'd rather not be the one who does it. i am more of a backend guy ;)
21:32 RaceCondition
hmm, do you not like the DOM/browser environment part or the language itself?
21:32 RaceCondition
I'm kinda into that topic because I've participated in building a whole portal/site with pure JavaScript for the UI
21:33 empty
brosner says, "I am more of a backend guy :)" <-- new TWID shirts.
21:34 brosner
a little bit of both. like i said i rather be in backend code than making this thing to animate or whatever. ;)
21:34 RaceCondition
yeah.. I get you
21:35 brosner
anonymous function are cool, but way over used in javascript
21:35 RaceCondition
I don't like writing user interface code either
21:35 RaceCondition
you mean closures? like blocks in Ruby
21:36 brosner
ugh, ruby. yes.
21:36 RaceCondition
you don't like Ruby either? :D
21:36 RaceCondition
lol, doesn't matter actually
21:37 Alex_Gaynor
Python has closure too
21:37 brosner
of course :)
21:38 Alex_Gaynor
Although javascript uses a lot more lambda then it does actual closure
21:38 RaceCondition
yeah, I know, but closures in python are about as often used as tanning lotion amongst black people
21:38 Alex_Gaynor
brosner: I can do the admin tutorial stuff tonight, unless you(or someone else) wnats to do it
21:39 brosner
jacobkm: the tutorial in newforms-admin needs some updating. it is a pretty sensitive doc, so i have avoided it. any plans as to who should do this or at least review it?
21:40 jacobkm
brosner: we might see if Adrian's interested since the tutorial is his baby; if not I can do it.
21:40 Alex_Gaynor
Or we could get one of the people who actualy knows how to write :P
21:40 brosner
ok great. should it be considered a nfa-blocker or let it slide?
