08:49 <teepee> how to fail creating a meme... https://twitter.com/overflow_meme/status/1527439335338958860 :)

08:54 <Scopeuk> that just gives me a headache

11:45 <dTal> what the hell is that

12:42 <J2267> quickly answered on so

12:44 <J2267> WP:  What is considered a meme may vary across different communities on the Internet and is subject to change over time. Traditionally, they were a concept or catchphrase, but the concept has since become broader and more multi-faceted, evolving to include more elaborate structures

12:59 <InPhase> teepee: I am left greatly confused.

13:00 <teepee> oh no

13:31 <teepee> ah, GSoC announcement today. I thought that's always on Mondays :)

13:31 <teepee> will be interesting to see how it goes this year with all the changes and potentially non-students

13:31 <teepee> hopefully they'll release some statistics later

13:33 <InPhase> In 4.5 hours it seems.

13:34 <teepee> announcement yeah, statistics is usually much later. I suppose they are quite busy now :)

13:55 <linext__> so i found a way to make the edges rounded on extruded SVG images

13:56 <linext__> https://i.ibb.co/PMr54ND/image.png

13:58 <linext__> importing a PNG as a surface that has gradients also worked, but it's not as clean

14:09 <J2267> linext__ you can use  function in(val=1)=val*25.4;

14:23 <J2267> linext__  not sure if you want that profile but for a round edge don't use pow() .. use https://bpa.st/XZ2A

14:29 <J2267> äh here   https://bpa.st/DFUA

18:04 <joseph_> teepee: Do you know how I can find out about accepted GSoC proposals? It is past 1800 utc and I don't see anything in my inbox. Does this indicate non-acceptance?

18:08 <teepee> joseph_: it might take a while to get all the mails out

18:08 <teepee> it should show that information on the dashboard too I think

18:09 <teepee> heh, looks like they got ddos'ed by everyone pressing f5 :)

18:09 <joseph_> teepee: Yes I just checked my dashboard and it is loading quite slowly. However eventually it got there and just lists "submitted" as my proposal status. I will traverse the website a bit more in case the information is on a different page

18:11 <InPhase> joseph_: On the mentor list the coordinator reported some other technical issues they were having, so don't be shocked by technical issues at the moment of sending out announcements. But they'll sort it out eventually. :)

18:11 <InPhase> There should be an email at announcement time.

18:13 <InPhase> This is on the one hand, giant Google sponsoring this. But on the other hand, this program appears to be run by a very small team within Google.

18:13 <teepee> it also happened that they ended up with slightly different hours than shown on the timeline :)

18:14 <teepee> yes, I suppose when they were with maybe 3 people at FOSDEM that may have been the whole team already

18:15 <InPhase> I estimate one coordinator, one technical person, and one HR person.

18:15 <teepee> which makes the result even more impressive

18:16 <InPhase> Indeed. Quite a lot of impressive work comes out of this program as a result.

18:17 <InPhase> And I suspect this is less than 50% of the full time annual work for those three people.

18:17 <InPhase> But that structure is just my guess from looking at what they do and how they seem to do it.

18:20 <teepee> now I do wonder if they have the app running on one of the team members laptops ;-)

18:26 <InPhase> I would imagine Google has a server room somewhere.

18:27 <teepee> looking minutes at the dashboard loading bar, I'm not so sure about that

18:39 <Scopeuk> Front end built by internet titan, backend Access database running on a 286 in a cupboard

18:40 <teepee> looks like the emails are starting to appear in peoples mailboxes :)

18:43 <teepee> seems to be angular, no surprises there: ng-version="12.2.0"

18:46 <teepee> 1210 contributors

18:47 <teepee> and with https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/programs/2022/projects showing up now, I guess we can congratulate joseph_ :)

18:51 <InPhase> joseph_: https://www.myinstants.com/en/instant/congratulations-matthq/

18:53 <InPhase> teepee: I am not yet listed on the project page it seems. Sean said he added it, but they must have a lag on processing that. Databases are hard I guess. :)

18:56 <teepee> InPhase: yeah, there's 2 sections "want to mentor" and "assigned mentors", looks like they show the wrong one

18:58 <teepee> is that link working when logged in https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/organizations/brl-cad/programs/2022/proposals/details/38Q5gTmK ?

19:12 <joseph_> teepee InPhase: I'm looking forward to working on the project this summer! Thanks for your guidance with the proposal

19:15 <teepee> summer of cool graphics ahead \o/

21:26 <InPhase> teepee: Yes. And I laughed at the two catgories of "Want to Mentor" and "Assigned to Mentor". It looks like I didn't want to, but got assigned to do it anyway. ;)

22:29 <linext__> J2267, thanks but the effect isn't the same

23:07 <J2267> linext__ no you would have real rounded edges not these deformed ones which look more like a bevel

23:07 <J2267> but as long you are happy  and got what you want - everything is fine

23:15 <linext__> i appreciate the alternative

23:15 <linext__> if r=1 instead of r=2 it's closer to what i made

23:16 <linext__> i'm not as good at trigonometry

23:41 <InPhase> J2267: An alternative structure: https://bpa.st/FQBQ

23:41 <InPhase> J2267: Zoom in to compare the subtle differences in the layers.

23:43 <InPhase> Oh, I probably should have added an overlap there.

23:45 <InPhase> Also I bet I can simplify this.
