Finding subtle irony in having to learn how to say "learning" (学んで/mana-n-de) and "learn" (学ぶ/mana-bu)...
@Natanael_L Obviously, with something like Swedish <-> English, you don't have as much processing to do (given a common base alphabet).
@Natanael_L (In my case, whilst trying to read and write Japanese, I bundle symbols/sounds/words, and try to translate them via English).
@Natanael_L (By "bytecode", I mean sort-of "compiling" input from a given language into another one for interpretation).
@Natanael_L Interesting. The "Do you X [think/dream/use as "bytecode"] in Lang. Y?" questions are always insightful (and perplexing), too.
Intrigued by http://neuroanthropology.net/2010.... I guess that's one of those "How do you describe "red" to a colour-blind person?"-type mysteries...

@hideout How are you getting along with your new camera, out of interest?

Glad at finally discovering what the mysterious song contained in my "audiodump.mp3" file is, thanks to 似本語 Wikipedia (http://www.youtube.com/watch...)

DavidCaabeiro: But if id &gt; 0x8000 then ControlOrNull() will return NULL. Reason: id is defined as WORD == int16_t == range(-32768, +32767) #TheJoyOfSymbian - http://twitter.com/DavidCa...
DavidCaabeiro: Using DLG_LINE with id=0 raises "Eikon Dialog 3" panic (EikDialogPanicFocusableLineWithIdZero) which means id &gt; 0 #TheJoyOfSymbian - http://twitter.com/DavidCa...

Wondering what Eclipse's main event loop is doing when the entire application randomly hangs for 30 seconds+ whilst selecting text...
@dougturner Easy! Just imitate Chrome, imitating Safari, Konqueror and FF, pretending to be NS Navigator/Mozilla, with IE compatibility.
nicolesimon: Suggestions for youtube: a switch to go for an audio only stream (when I have it in the background) and finally an automatic loop. :) - http://twitter.com/nicoles...
Waiting for Android's ridiculously slow debugger whilst it aimlessly steps through my code in the hopes of hitting a breakpoint...
@Natanael_L Apparently, they also produce documentation and forms in Urdu. I haven't seen any in Greek or Swahili yet...
@Natanael_L I was thinking that they make us work hard to unravel their obfuscated layers of complexity; so why don't we reciprocate?
@Natanael_L It's pronounced "watashi ha konpyu^tasofutouea wo kaihatsu suru!", and means "I develop computer software!" :)
Tempted to say "私はコンピュータソフトウェアを開発する!" in mocking, but doubting that doing so would be a good idea...

Hmm, so they don't like "Software development carried out on behalf of a consultancy company" - even though it's entirely accurate.
@cowboycoder Heh. I ended up thinking, "Screw it - I had to register as self-employed anyway", and ploughed ahead.
"You cannot enter more than 42 characters for 'Business description'. Please amend". Seriously?
Wondering what I'm supposed to provide as a "business description", given my situation is inverted (I'm issuing invoices under contract).
