what a philosophical question |

if it's not true, anand, is it a fact? |

i ask sincerly. like "does a tree in the forst...." |

if there's no one there to hear it fall, lol does it make a sound? |

What I meant of course, is whether the stuff the narrator claims as facts are true or not. :) |

ugh, anyone around who is good at rebasing? Every time I've attempted it I make a mess. And I'm tired of constantly having to completely redo PRs because of this and I'm sure it's annoying to others |
| 14:27 |
ANAND |
I wouldn't call myself good, but rebasing is just git rebase -i HEAD~<no. of commits to include> |
| 14:28 |
ANAND |
Replace pick with e or edit for commits that you want to edit, save and close the editor. |
| 14:28 |
ANAND |
git will pause at commits which you marked with e or edit, for you to make changes |
| 14:28 |
ANAND |
Once you've made the necessary changes, git add <filename> or git add . |
| 14:29 |
ANAND |
then, git commit --amend '-S', and then git rebase --continue |
| 14:29 |
ANAND |
(Dunno what the '-S' is for, git recommends it when amending commits in the rebasing process) |
| 14:30 |
ANAND |
Repeat the last two steps for all the commits marked for editing. |
| 14:30 |
ANAND |
Once all the commits have been amended, git will automatically finish the rebase |
| 14:31 |
ANAND |
Then force-push to your remote: git push -f or git push --force |
| 14:31 |
ANAND |
I think that's basically it |
| 14:32 |
tumeninodes |
:( does <no. of commits to include> mean the commit number or as in 1, 2, 3 etc? |
| 14:33 |
tumeninodes |
sorry, my brain fizzles with things like this |
| 14:33 |

Ive read the documentation and I seem to get it until they start throwing multiple scenarios into the mix |
| 14:34 |
tumeninodes |
I think I did it successfully once recently, but I forget what I did because I just started guessing and it worked... don;t know what or how but it worked |
| 14:37 |
tumeninodes |
oh, wait... I think I have something Ezzh shared with me once... I'll have a look at that |
| 15:00 |
tumeninodes |
oorah! I did rebase... I think |
| 15:00 |
tumeninodes |
thank you Shara |
| 15:17 |
ANAND |
tumeninodes: Sorry for the late reply, but <number of commits to include> should be replaced by the numbers of commits from HEAD you want to include in the rebase operation. If you're rebasing for a PR containing 3 commits, for example, use git rebase -i HEAD~3 |
| 15:23 |
jas_ |
and the command for 'squashing' those 3 commits into one ? |
| 15:23 |
jas_ |
(for when he's done?) |
| 15:25 |
ANAND |
git rebase -i HEAD~<no. of commits to include> |
| 15:25 |
jas_ |
oh ok hx |
| 15:26 |
jas_ |
thx |
| 15:26 |
ANAND |
then replace pick with s (or f to discard commit messages of squashed commits) for all except the first commit |
| 15:27 |
jas_ |
so after you type that, you just hit 'f' ? |
| 15:27 |
ANAND |
Save and close the file, and git squashes the commits |
| 15:27 |
tumeninodes |
thank you Anand... I actually already did the rebase... I think haha |
| 15:27 |
ANAND |
No |
| 15:27 |
ANAND |
Yay :) |
| 15:27 |
ANAND |
What went wrong though? |

I have great difficulty learning via text |
| 15:29 |
tumeninodes |
been a serious issue since childhood, with a brain injury from my early adulthood adding to the problem |
| 15:29 |
ANAND |
jas_: git rebase -i <commit ref> opens up a text editor with a list of commits to be rebased. It'd look something like this: https://hackernoon.com/hn-images/0*K_tYrMvbzRdnWOMV.png |
| 15:29 |
ANAND |
the word before the commit SHA is interpreted as a command |
| 15:30 |
ANAND |
pick simply does nothing |
| 15:30 |
ANAND |
Replacing pick with edit or e will make git pause at that commit to allow the user to make amendments to the commit |
| 15:30 |
tumeninodes |
most times, any tech documentation prepared by a developer/programmer confuses me... A while back Shara had sent me some text which really helped as she put it into layman's terms |
| 15:31 |
ANAND |
Tech documentation is confusing by nature :) |
| 15:31 |
tumeninodes |
in short, she's brilliant, knows her $hit... and can still "talk" to people too ;) |
| 15:32 |
ANAND |
That's a very rare combination these days :P |
| 15:34 |
tumeninodes |
often times when a dev tries to help a person who is a novice programmer and they say "git rebase -i <commit ref>.... the person they are trying to help will literally type it exactly as they are told using <commit ref> and not replacing it with an actual commit ref |
| 15:35 |
ANAND |
True |
| 15:35 |
tumeninodes |
A good analogy.... Someone asks you to help them on how to build a house... and you hand them a hammer, and nails, and send them on their way :D |
| 15:35 |
ANAND |
heh |
| 15:35 |

not anyone's fault, it's just the way different mindsets think |
| 15:36 |
tumeninodes |
I am a mechanical learner, I learn by watching and doing |
| 15:37 |
tumeninodes |
I get lost in text and by the time I get to the third line, I completely forgot what the first two lines said, so I continuously go back and reread over and over and still get confused |
| 15:37 |
tumeninodes |
At the same time, I can read extensive novels and enjoy them... mysteries of the human mind |
| 15:38 |
ANAND |
Well, novels are written in English, not in C++ :) |
| 15:39 |
tumeninodes |
so the way I just did it, as it was explained (though I use a slightly diff wording) I git checkout back to my local master, git pull upstream master, then git push origin master |
| 15:40 |
tumeninodes |
next I checkout the PR branch Im working on... git fetch origin master, then git rebase origin <branch> |
| 15:41 |
rubenwardy |
tumeninodes: do you prefer videos? |
| 15:41 |
tumeninodes |
then --force push to origin master.. and viola |
| 15:41 |
tumeninodes |
yes, at times video instruction can help |
| 15:41 |
rubenwardy |
Have you tried reading my 'book'? Wondering how good it is for "laymen" :) |
| 15:42 |
rubenwardy |
I'm tempted to make my own Minetest modding video series |
| 15:42 |
tumeninodes |
but mostly if the presenter is acxtually doing and showing what they are doing mechanically while they explain it |
| 15:43 |
tumeninodes |
Your book does help a lot. though some areas are a bit rough/vague regarding my ability to understand |
| 15:44 |
tumeninodes |
more actual examples would be even more helpful with certain parts. Hard for me to offer an actual example, I would have to run into it to be able to make a note of it. |
| 15:44 |
rubenwardy |
I'd appreciate some pointers on that |
| 15:44 |
rubenwardy |
ah, cool |
| 15:44 |
rubenwardy |
have you seen the new formspec chapter? |

| 15:44 |
tumeninodes |
When I come upon moment like that I willbe sure to make a note of it and let you know |
| 15:44 |
rubenwardy |
I've been trying to rewrite chapters with a reoccuring example throughout |
| 15:44 |
tumeninodes |
yes, that is done quite well actually |
| 15:44 |
rubenwardy |
is that the sort of example you mena? |
| 15:45 |
tumeninodes |
yes |
| 15:45 |
tumeninodes |
that was how I realized it is a bit similar to when I used to work on splash screens etc for a Linux dist some years ago |
| 15:45 |
tumeninodes |
meaning as far as using coords, etc. |
| 15:47 |
tumeninodes |
most people who do/will read the book, will already have a basic understanding of coding in the first place |
| 15:47 |
tumeninodes |
it will be quite rare to have a ding dong like me come along, who loves to poke at everything |
| 15:48 |
tumeninodes |
the most "programming" or coding I ever did, was related to graphics and UI for distros before popping into this project |
| 15:50 |
tumeninodes |
PCLinuxOS, Granular, and then Unity Linux after the PCLOS split but that turned into just being a base OS with not much need for the graphics end that I liked to play with |
| 15:51 |
tumeninodes |
btw I mentioned this a few days ago... I think a link to your book should be added to the api (on line 6) |
| 15:52 |
tumeninodes |
https://github.com/minetest/minetest/blob/master/doc/lua_api.txt#L6 <----there |
| 15:53 |
rubenwardy |
I would like that |
| 15:53 |
rubenwardy |
however, I'm not sure other people would accept that |
| 15:53 |
tumeninodes |
giddyup :D |
| 15:54 |
rubenwardy |
If someone else proposes it, and it's supported by other people, then it could be added |
| 15:54 |
rubenwardy |
but I won't approve the PR because conflict of interest |
| 15:54 |
tumeninodes |
I don't see why not. One link goes to a notoriously often outdated ref and the other loops right back to the lua.api git page |
| 15:54 |
tumeninodes |
yeh thats true... |
| 15:55 |
tumeninodes |
hmmmm |
| 15:56 |
tumeninodes |
dang... we'll have to dispatch everyone here who saw that now... |

| 18:03 |
ANAND |
Replacing map.sqlite doesn't work |
| 18:03 |
Krock |
world.mt -> change gameid |
| 18:03 |
Krock |
change the backend to dummy |
| 18:03 |
Krock |
readonly_backend = sqlite |
| 18:04 |
Krock |
*sqlite3 |
| 18:04 |
Krock |
mkdir readonly |
| 18:04 |

cd readonly && ln -s ../map.sqlite . |
| 18:04 |
ANAND |
Whoa that's complicated... |
| 18:04 |
sfan5 |
there are easier ways |
| 18:04 |
Krock |
no, it's just so you cannot modify the map, neither can lua |
| 18:04 |
Krock |
in case anything goes wrong |
| 18:05 |
Krock |
simplest way is just to set the game ID, and check the mainmenu |
| 18:05 |
ANAND |
I have to create a world.mt for that first, right? |
| 18:05 |
Krock |
yes |
| 18:06 |
ANAND |
righty-ho |
| 18:06 |
Krock |
gameid = minetest ought to be enough since all other settings default to what you nede |
| 18:06 |
Krock |
unless I'm mistaken.. I though it was that way |
| 18:09 |

trying accurate position checks |
| 18:24 |

I think accurate position checks are much cheaper than rendering blocks that shouldn't be |

found a middle-way through. using approximate as long as possible, then falling back to accurate |
| 18:26 |
ANAND |
PR gives me 5-6 more FPS than master |

Tested by flying to the same coords, after loading a near-equal number of chunks. |

tumeninodes: some of the lucky blocks seem like that inverse tnt you're looking for. those blocks sometimes produce colored baked clay or sand around the player |

rubenwardy: looking good :) |

rubenwardy: you may want to darken the Multiplayer Topdown Game background image so that the text is easier to read |
| 21:22 |
Calinou |
it definitely doesn't pass https://webaim.org/resources/contrastchecker/ right now :) |
| 21:24 |
rubenwardy |

someone suggested not having that project be full width |
| 21:24 |
rubenwardy |
and instead do this https://rwdy.uk/T0PlE.png |
| 21:25 |
rubenwardy |
is that better? |
| 21:25 |
rubenwardy |
I prefer the appearence of the current version, although I do understand that it is less obvious where it is in the hierarcy |
| 21:30 |
Calinou |
rubenwardy: either is fine to me, I don't think there's a clear winner |
