 11:48 < sulix> Do you know what is happening/isn't happening RE: Revised project proposals?
 12:03 < sulix> Well: Literature review is submitted.
 12:03 < sulix> (In person to the coordinator, which is a little bit scary)
+--- Day changed Sun May 25 2014
+15:42 <@matches> No meeting tomorrow by the way
+15:43 < sulix> Ah. Cool. I have like 300 things to do.
+15:43 < sulix> Just pushed fixes for all of the compile warnings, btw.
+15:43 <@matches> Cool
+15:44 <@matches> I want to keep editing my Lit Review :S
+15:44 < sulix> I had thought that Float() always returns a "float", but it sometimes returns a double.
+15:44 <@matches> Oh
+15:44 <@matches> Whoops
+15:44 <@matches> Well a double is technically still a float...
+15:44 < sulix> (Also, it turns out OpenGL actualy breaks the C++ spec, and is therefore impossible to use without hacks if you have -Werror enabled)
+15:45 <@matches> Sigh
+15:45 < sulix> It was warning that I was losing precision from float x = Float(blah);
+15:45 <@matches> One of the things I want to put in my lit review is a snarky paragraph about how no one actually obeys standards anyway
+15:46 < sulix> There are points where you get function pointers as void* pointers, but C++ needs to work on systems where code and data are stored in different bits of memory with different size pointers.
+15:46 <@matches> On the other hand no matter how much better I make the lit review no one will read it because I'm being assessed on a conference paper not a dissertation
+15:46 <@matches> Ah
+15:46 < sulix> So casting any data pointer to a function pointer is apparently illegal.
+15:47 <@matches> That's annoying
+15:47 < sulix> Fortunately, gcc doesn't complain if you start the line that does it with "__extension__", so that's what we do.
+15:47 <@matches> Haha
+15:54 <@matches> Ok I am still about 3 days behind on sleep but I guess I should do work
+15:54 <@matches> Bye
