Where i work we've had an intern for the last two weeks. I'm starting to get irritated at him. He actually brought his computer here and all he's doing is play World of Warcraft and MW2. I was programming on this thing i'm working on for a site, then all of a sudden the power goes out. I look around, then see him unplugging the power supply :colbert: (I'm fairly sure it was a mistake though (good thing I have a habit of saving every 5 seconds)) I'm suprised the guy who's responsible for him isn't giving him any work. There's not overly much to do, but there [i]is[/i] stuff to do. Sorry for being horribly off topic, but i had to tell someone :v:

[editline]14th April 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=Hexxeh;29159462]So I've been thinking about this problem for a while now, not figured out a good way of doing it. As part of my Facepunch for iPhone app, I need to parse BBcode into UI elements. For example: [noparse]a[b]b[/b]c[/noparse] a[b]b[/b]c Would require three UI elements, one label for a, one label for b and one label for c. I need to somehow iterate through a string containing BBcode, and split it up into these UI elements. My first though is that I should turn it into an array and then iterate through splitting it up as much as possible, unwrapping nested tags etc until I can just loop through and create all the UI elements, but my regex is pretty poor, and so I'm not sure of the best way of doing this. Any suggestions as to how best I can do this?[/QUOTE] Hey, I had another idea. Convert it directly into XML, then parse the XML. Like, convert [noparse][b][/b] into <tag="b"></tag="b">[/noparse] etc then use the API functions for parsing XML (which i assume exist).

For me is chrome faster than firefox.

How do music/rhythm games work. How do you translate the beats or such in a song to the program.

I know this is probably kiddy stuff to you guys, but I'm taking baby-steps in coding my own website after a Lifehacker article inspired me to try it out. Super basic stuff. [url]http://ijyt.net/[/url]
[QUOTE=Jimbomcb;29161634]if anyone has firefox and chrome installed, check out the speed difference on [url]http://spec.jimbomcb.net/canvastest/[/url] in the two browsers[/QUOTE] Chrome: 41 ticks per second, ~10ms/tick Firefox 4, hardware acceleration ON: 50TPS, ~3ms/tick Firefox 4, hardware acceleration OFF: 39TPS, ~14ms/tick Are you sure the tick time is calculated correctly? It doesn't correspond to the TPS value and it went something like -900 once.
the tick time and ticks per second aren't related that way. it's not going to go higher than 30 ticks per second because that's what it is set to run at and the tick speed is the time it takes to do one tick.

I mean since V1 WAYWO has been like the programming forums chat thread. It's mainly what people are working on, but the occasional link which we'll all mostly find interesting or conversation topic isn't so bad is it? As long as it's not filling up whole pages, I don't see the big deal.
