02:14:37 <homeslice> hi!
02:15:38 <moneromooo> hi
02:16:25 <homeslice> I'm a comp sci student and have also been trading monero for nearly 1 yr
02:16:39 <homeslice> I would like to help out on any projects happening!
02:17:13 <moneromooo> Welcome. What's your area of expertise, and what's your area of preference ?
02:21:30 <homeslice> I would like to start with GUI stuff, and as far as expertise i'm somewhat experienced in C++/Objected oriented programming/Algorithm and data structures/web development but not any skills directly related to GUI. I would like to volunteer and to gain experience
02:23:07 <moneromooo> Try asking in #monero-gui then.
02:23:18 <homeslice> Thanks
02:25:43 <sethsimmons> homeslice: this could be a good starting point for you as well: https://sethsimmons.me/posts/contributing-to-monero/#for-developers
02:27:08 <homeslice> sethsimmons I'll take a look into it, cheers

12:52:40 <Arkoo> I was looking through the database and saw that the string comparator for the properties table does not take size into account
12:53:37 <Arkoo> when we do  MDB_val_str(k, "pruning_seed");
12:54:13 <Arkoo> the right hand argument is cast to a void *,that is (void * ) "pruning_seed"
12:54:46 <Arkoo> In c++ is pruning seed automatically converted to a C-style string when we write something like this?
12:55:35 <moneromooo> IIRC the zero is stored.
12:55:45 <moneromooo> (for this particular table)
12:56:30 <Arkoo> It has to be. But where does it happen do you know?
12:56:53 <moneromooo> I'm not sure I understand what you're asking here.
12:57:04 <Arkoo> where is the null terminator set
12:57:40 <Arkoo> I wouldn't have thought it was done during the (void   *) cast
12:57:43 <Arkoo> ffs
12:57:45 <Arkoo> void star
12:57:50 <Arkoo> haha
12:58:04 <moneromooo> I don't understnad what you're asking here.
12:58:26 <moneromooo> The NUL terminator is set at the end of the string. Obviously. So that's probably not what you're asking.
12:58:40 <moneromooo> The cast doesn't change this.
12:59:14 <moneromooo> The cast is because the MDB_val data arg is a void* since it can point to anything.
12:59:50 <Arkoo> c++ style strings don't have a null terminator. std::string temp = "hello whats up"; will not have a null termiator
13:00:34 <Arkoo> if we simply write "some text" without writing std::string, is it interpreted as a C-style string with a null terminator?
13:01:00 <moneromooo> It shuld have one since c_str needs one.
13:01:07 <moneromooo> It's a C string.
13:01:45 <Arkoo> right
13:01:47 <Arkoo> thanks
13:02:50 <moneromooo> You could make a custom compare function that strncmp, but lmdb will crash happily if you craft the db anyway, so it really doesn't matter I think.
13:37:04 <moneromooo> Why is it people want to file a bug about expcetions all the bloody time if it's working...
13:37:51 <moneromooo> It doens't show on the console for a reason...
14:21:27 <mj-xmr> Arkoo: a C++ string does contain a NULL terminator. It's just not counted in with size().
14:22:04 <mj-xmr> Comparing const char *  with string's c_str() will work for strncmp
14:35:58 <omega> is there anything 'wrong' with setting p2p-bind-port=80 on my home daemon?  Thank you
14:36:32 <ErCiccione> moneromooo: could you unlock xmronadaily on gitlab. It's the problem of the login with github.
14:36:56 <moneromooo> Sure. I totally forgot about doing those rounds for ages.
14:37:35 <ErCiccione> nobody had complained about it so far :)
14:39:56 <moneromooo> Funny that. It asks for for 2FA, and I did not set that up.
15:00:12 <moneromooo> ErCiccione: it will wait, I have login issues to the admin interface.
15:01:48 <ErCiccione> Alright, thanks. I think serhack has access has well.
21:19:10 <sgp_> If all goes well, this channel will be bridged to the Discord tonight. It was bridged before, but if you have concerns lmk
22:35:13 <hyc> eh? there are actual developer on discord that aren't on irc?
22:42:08 <binaryFate> Seems all large enough monero channels will get bridged. Should allow everyone to get persistence without bouncer or paying for irccloud. Easier for some people
22:50:30 <sethsimmons> Matrix is much better and more private and should be the recommendation.
22:50:41 <sethsimmons> But discord is good for normies
22:50:42 <sethsimmons> Should only be RO to this channel though.
22:51:13 <hyc> yeah RO here sounds like a good idea
