What are you working on? V5

Nice to know because when I installed bugspray on my server a while back, I had no idea where the SQL schema was and the settings files. And the readme didn't help much.

dump.sql, app/settings.php

Anyway, there was a readme? What? Do I not remember what files I have in bugspray? :ohdear:

Working on Flashickr, a Flash gallery for Flickr that works with any user account

[i]The pictures are loading from the Flickr account[/i]

[i]Mouse over fades in title of picture, and makes it big. Loading bar seen at the bottom[/i]

[i]The image tweens in, and a tab beside the image fades in, containing the following:[/i]

A demo can be seen here:

[url]http://flashickr.jalsoedesign.net/[/url]

to pic a specific user, simply add "?user=USERNAME" to the end of the URL, both URL names, real usernames and mail addresses work.

Example for BrianEtc on facepunch:

Eugh no offence but I hate flash galleries

That open the original image button is a good idea though.

Personally, I think ratings are pointless being anonymous. I find them distracting though so made this quick thing to remove them.[/quote]

O also, to respond to ja_cop. I am talking about people self rating to make their post seem important.

[Pj The Dj]

The thing I hate most about flash galleries is that you have to wait until the image is completely loaded until you can see it. It wastes so much time plus I have no idea if I don't actually want to see the picture.

Updated holly. Can set a color mask for a specified string and it will highlight it.

I prefer using endif; etc in PHP over curly brackets. The fucking $ sign is a pain though.

My 'dream' language would be a combo of PHP/Lua stuff, like:

foreach( thing as key, value ) do
doshit
endforeach

No $'s, no {}'s and no ;'s

Wonderful.

Why does everyone hate ';' ? It becomes a second nature once using it for a while, you don't even notice it and usually never forget it.

I suppose being a Mac user really does adversely affect your perception of good syntax (Ruby on Rails, Objective-C)

[blankthemuffin]

C syntax is bloated. Good luck writing something this succinct in a language with C like syntax.

    def parse(self, msg):
        prefix, trailing = '', None
        if msg[0] == ':':
            prefix, msg = msg[1:].split(' ', 1)
        if msg.find(' :') != -1:
            msg, trailing = msg.split(' :', 1)
        args = msg.split()
        args.append(trailing)
        return prefix, args.pop(0), args

Objective-C looked odd and uncomfortable in various ways. Although I looked at it for all of three minutes. I soon also found out I needed a mac to develop on the iPhone. That was when I decided I'd much rather stick with Windows and develop for Android.

Plus, Java will probably be easier to use than Objective-C, syntax-wise.

I've been using python in my computer science class and although it's not [I]too[/I] bad, I have to say I don't really like it.

Any language with no C style for loop should be shot (range(), do not want). C style for loops are so versatile, you can do a complex looping pattern in that one for statement. With python you would have to use a while loop and put some stuff in the loop body.

Also, I love semi-colons. They make code so much more readable. For anyone who isn't used to them I'm sure it's a pain, but they make it so much clearer in time.

I also don't like that python doesn't use curly braces, which also make code more readable.

I very much dislike pythons lack of type being included in the variable declaration.

haha, never used either :P

I just see no need to use same lines for stuff, hence there's not much point. I'd rather not have to stick ; everywhere for that, what other advantage do they give?

[r4nk_]

[QUOTE='-[ Fizzadar ]-;18467210']what other advantage do they give?[/QUOTE]

In general they just let you use whitespace to format your code which is a [I]huge[/I] advantage if you ask me.

[blankthemuffin]

You're throwing around some weird points there Jallen.

The for loop semantics are interesting, not sure if I'd do it their way, however it does have merits. Mainly that it is consistent, you always know what a for loop is doing, unlike in C based languages where anything could be happening.

Semi-colons are not designed to make the language easier to read for the programmer, but to make it possible to parse "interesting" syntax where a lack of them creates ambiguities. Brackets denoting blocks are an interesting method, considering that 99.99% of the time with well written code the block specification is duplicated by indentation. Modern programming seeks to reduce duplication so it seems odd that such a system is continually used.

Dynamic typing is a programming feature common in languages targeted at scripting. I don't really see it as a big deal.

[Jallen]

[QUOTE=blankthemuffin;18467242]Semi-colons are not designed to make the language easier to read for the programmer, but to make it possible to parse "interesting" syntax where a lack of them creates ambiguities.[/QUOTE]

100% of syntax designed to make code easier to parse by the compiler can be used by the programmer too to remove those ambiguities in his mind.

[iPope]

If anything, python forces you into the habit of indenting properly. If you try not to it takes your program and rams it into the great pit of annoying errors.
