07:02:36dbussinkevan: too nasty bug to quickly fix?
16:49:05Defiler*facepalm* http://www.pcworld.idg.com.au/article/358024/time_waits_no_one_leap_seconds_may_cut/
17:12:31dwaiteDefiler: I totally believe they should kill leap seconds
17:12:45DefilerI think they should kill civil time if they do
17:13:03Defilereveryone who cares about tidal braking already uses sidereal time
17:14:13DefilerYou know what is great? FreeBSD.
17:15:28dwaiteI think we can just take leap seconds into account once we have an hour's worth
17:15:31dwaitein about 2000 years
17:16:48DefilerI'm not into deliberately doing it wrong :)
17:17:22dbussinkwould be interesting, to have days that start an hour later if you compare to the daylight
17:17:36dwaiteleap seconds dont work because everyone wants to use UTC as canonical time format
17:17:44dwaitebut leap seconds affect UTC
17:17:57bougymanleap second are added arbitrarily
17:18:03bougymanwhen we notice a wobble or wahtever.
17:18:06dwaiteso leap seconds become seconds which 'don't count', rather than just leading into a time adjustment
17:18:07bougymanthey're not regular.
17:18:34dwaitethats another format, but we kinda have to cope with that with time zone changes/dst changes now :)
17:19:31dwaitewe may also wind up learning something new about gravity that causes us to eventually do a minor adjustment to time
17:20:23dwaite(it is at least possible that we have mis-measured due to the gravitational forces and movement of the earth)
17:49:17dbussinkbrixen: ping?
18:21:40brixendbussink: sup?
18:22:50dbussinkbrixen: looks like i have a bunch of process status specs reworked now
18:23:00dbussinkbrixen: can you run rubyspec easily on windows?
18:23:07dbussinki have a windows vm, but not much set up
18:23:14dbussinkso i manually checked the behavior there
18:25:00brixenyeah, I can run the specs
18:25:17brixenI think I only have 1.8.7 now
18:25:20brixenneed to install pik
18:28:09dbussinkbrixen: https://gist.github.com/662ea97432e8b433820d
18:29:24brixendbussink: if they pass on os x/linux, could you commit them
18:29:39brixenit's easiest if I can just git pull on windows
18:29:49brixenthe fewer commands I have to run, the better :)
18:30:14brixensince using windows gives me a serious case of the frownies :)
18:30:37dbussinkbrixen: ok, will do :)
18:30:44brixendbussink: thanks!
18:31:57boyscoutRework Process::Status specs to be simplified and run them on Windows - 09863f5 - Dirkjan Bussink
18:41:21boyscoutCI: rubinius: 09863f5 successful: 3516 files, 15140 examples, 42989 expectations, 0 failures, 0 errors
18:46:50brixendbussink: man, still waiting for windows to boot
18:48:22dbussinkbrixen: np :)
18:49:42brixendbussink: ok, we're going to get some lunch
18:49:51brixenso I'll run this when I get back
18:56:37dbussinkbrixen: might be booted then yeah ;)
20:59:05brixendbussink: only 3 failures in Process specs and none are yours
21:33:59bdheemanhi srbaker

21:35:39bdheemanI have updated the source packages for rubinius at http://anu.homelinux.net/pub/Debian/ and http://anu.homelinux.net/pub/Ubuntu/
21:36:17srbakeroh good, thanks
21:36:48bdheemanyou're welcome :)
