12:13 AM zhanx: rue_mohr, the found votes from early 83,000 now
12:17 AM rue_mohr: huh
12:17 AM rue_mohr: so they didn't roll over at 64k
12:17 AM rue_mohr: or even 32k to -32k
12:17 AM rue_mohr: like last time
12:20 AM rue_mohr: or set up an operation pane so I can build a drill operation
12:21 AM rue_mohr: which would bump the nose of the project ahead more, and give me a workable program
12:21 AM rue_mohr: then I could drill pcbs
12:22 AM rue_mohr: .. !? or I could... nap!?!
12:22 AM zhanx: nap is good
12:22 AM rue_mohr: arg, so unproductive
12:22 AM zhanx: stops mistakes you have to fix late
12:22 AM zhanx: later
12:22 AM rue_mohr: imagine life,
12:23 AM rue_mohr: as a host and a
12:25 AM rue_mohr: ... missing word...
12:29 AM rue_mohr: ... damnit...
12:30 AM zhanx: being
12:32 AM rue_mohr: Symbiote, who have always existed togethor
12:33 AM rue_mohr: to the point where they cannot tell what and who is part of who
12:33 AM rue_mohr: trying to work it out, talking amongst themselfs
12:35 AM rue_mohr: realizing the conflicts and objective differences between them, that they always took as self-questioning
12:36 AM rue_mohr: trying to work out whos oppinion is whos
12:36 AM rue_mohr: realizing things like "write the code" and "go make supper" is not as internal of a conflict as origionally thought
12:38 AM rue_mohr: the realization that time itself is much more of a problem than origionally imagined
12:40 AM rue_mohr: hay rue!
12:40 AM rue_mohr: yea?
12:40 AM rue_mohr: their gone.
12:40 AM rue_mohr: supper?
12:40 AM rue_mohr: sure, whatever
12:40 AM rue_mohr: your reeling in the progress aren't ya?
12:40 AM rue_mohr: totally.
12:41 AM rue_mohr: WHY do we need the new 2d lib?
12:41 AM rue_mohr: yer gonna need those maths to do the profiling
12:41 AM rue_mohr: k, that'll be a while down the road
12:41 AM rue_mohr: yea
12:41 AM zhanx: sometimes i feel rue types just to log it
12:41 AM rue_mohr: we need something to ...
12:42 AM rue_mohr: zhanx, some of us need someone to bounce things off ya know
12:42 AM zhanx: true, i white board for that
12:42 AM rue_mohr: I wonder if that realator in the help thing on furrys page is a programmer too
12:42 AM rue_mohr: leave them alone dude
12:43 AM rue_mohr: they need to chat too!
12:43 AM rue_mohr: not likley a programmer
12:43 AM rue_mohr: I need a file/data format to hold the details of a generic cnc operation
12:44 AM rue_mohr: drill/trace, mill, pocket
12:44 AM rue_mohr: you need to do it wrong and then you will know
12:44 AM rue_mohr: ok, so we just blunder on?
12:44 AM rue_mohr: yu
12:44 AM zhanx: yea
12:45 AM rue_mohr: I have a program that takes a xls file with points and generates drill operations
12:45 AM rue_mohr: :)
12:45 AM rue_mohr: but it seems to me that I need a file to save the job into
12:45 AM rue_mohr: which suggests some kinda intermediate format
12:46 AM rue_mohr: maybe a object list to operation table
12:46 AM rue_mohr: and the details in the table
12:46 AM rue_mohr: with the operation having alist of refs to objects
03:02 PM rue_mohr: ok, so I need to come up with UI elements for generating operations
03:02 PM rue_mohr: i suppose the operations are just a list, and get processed later
03:03 PM rue_mohr: so, I need a cnc operation editor
04:59 PM Tom_L: so you read from a file and write to a file? no redundancy detected there? what happens in the middle?
05:00 PM Tom_L: i guess that's where the gold is
06:21 PM rue_mohr: well
06:21 PM rue_mohr: 3 files involved
06:21 PM rue_mohr: a dxf to import
06:21 PM rue_mohr: a intermediate to save work,
06:21 PM rue_mohr: and a nc to output
06:22 PM rue_mohr: not sure what to do with that intermediate
06:23 PM rue_mohr: while (scanf("%f, %f", &x, &y) != EOF) {
06:23 PM rue_mohr: // printf(" point %f, %f\n", x, y);
06:23 PM rue_mohr: drillHole(holes, pt(x, y));
06:23 PM rue_mohr: }
06:23 PM rue_mohr: sofar, the ...

11:36 PM rue_mohr: hmm that seemed awefull unco-ordinated for a machine that does that
11:36 PM rue_mohr: my axis system can handle 64k axies at once
11:37 PM furrywolf: 64k ought to be enough for anyone
11:37 PM zhanx: not rue
11:37 PM rue_mohr: you ahve to understand that the axies dont ahve to be on the same robot
11:37 PM rue_mohr: :)
