| moritz_ | masak: nopaste.snit.ch/14693 is that understandable? | 15:38 | |
| if yes, I'll put it up on my blog | |||
| masak reads | 15:39 | ||
| the 'but' after the comma in the "A mesoscopic system..." paragraph. I don't understand why it's there. | 15:40 | ||
| I consider a few nanometers to be quite small :) | |||
| moritz_ | argh, that should read "larger than" | 15:41 | |
| masak | that explains it :) | ||
| moritz_ | my vim spell checker doesn't know about "mesoscopic" ;) | ||
| masak | doesn't surprise me. | ||
| moritz_: I thought Ohm's law was I = V/R, not something about lengths and cross sections. | 15:42 | ||
| there's a misspelling of increase in the text: 'icrease'. | 15:43 | ||
| moritz_ | masak: I thought that too, but all the meso books say so (re Ohm) | ||
| masak | oki | 15:44 | |
| moritz_ | masak: actually all the solid state books | ||
| ;-) | |||
| masak | (as if there were other kinds of books) | ||
| moritz_ | (solid state physics is a very obscure and messy branch of physics. Sadly 80% of our department does exactly that ) | 15:45 | |
| masak | why obscure and messy? | ||
| (I'd have put a comma after "In a semiconductor", but perhaps that's just me) | |||
| also, s/two beam/two beams/ | 15:46 | ||
| moritz_ | because the systems are so compilcated that all calculations rely on approximations that are only a tiny bit justified | ||
| masak | s/roughly/roughly be/ | ||
| moritz_: sounds like my field, biology! | |||
| "we know this is wrong, but it's the best theory we have at present" | 15:47 | ||
| moritz_ | so the choice of approximations is nearly always only justified if the results sound good, which is IMHO the wrong way round ;) | ||
| masak | aye. | ||
| s/voltage that's/voltage/ # though both work | 15:48 | ||
| moritz_ | (actually there are better theories, like field theory + topology, but they are even more complicated, and nothing you learn during a normal physics course) | ||
| masak | I don't know if "a charge is assembled" is the right expression. I'd have said "accumulated" | 15:49 | |
| people can assemble, charge cannot, by me | |||
| moritz_ | yes, that's better | ||
| thanks for all the suggestions/fixes | |||
| masak | np | ||
| you're inconsistently using "ie"/"i.e." | |||
| moritz_ | I'll settle on ie | 15:50 | |
| masak | either is fine (I think), but make up your mind :) | ||
| moritz_ | afk (will publish later9 | 15:56 | |
| masak | moritz_++ | 16:13 | |
| moritz_ | @tell masak could you please check if rt.perl.org/rt3/Ticket/Display.html?id=57710 still segfaults for you? looks fine here... | 18:42 | |
| zarah | moritz_'s link is also tinyurl.com/639mvk | ||
| Consider it noted. | |||

| masak | OH HAI | 20:01 | |
| zarah | hi masak | ||
| masak: You have new messages. Write '@messages' to read them. | |||
| masak | @massages | 20:02 | |
| zarah | masak: 1 h 19 m 30 s ago, moritz_ said could you please check if rt.perl.org/rt3/Ticket/Display.html?id=57710 still segfaults for you? looks fine here... | ||
| masak | sounds like a thing that usually segfaults here... | ||
| masak checks | |||
| hey, it didn't segfault! :D | 20:03 | ||
| masak resolves #57710 | 20:04 | ||
| moritz_ | hey, that's 3 closed tickets on my run threw the queue | ||
| masak | moritz_++ | 20:05 | |
| moritz_: irclog.perlgeek.de/text.pl?channel=...2008-11-22 tells me 'invalid channel name' :/ | 20:06 | ||
| zarah | masak's link is also tinyurl.com/55q62f | ||
| masak | moritz_: don'y you DRY? :P | ||
| s/y/t/ | 20:07 | ||
| moritz_ | fixed. | 20:09 | |
| masak | gracias. | ||
| moritz_ | bitteschön ;) | 20:10 | |
| masak | heh :) | 20:11 | |
| moritz_ | masak: it's now up on perlgeek.de/blog-en/meso.html | 21:10 | |
| zarah | moritz_'s link is also tinyurl.com/689ujj | ||
| moritz_ | masak++ # all these corrections | ||
| masak | np. | ||
| and I'm very much interested to know what you find in your diploma thesis work. | 21:12 | ||
| moritz_ is curious if he'll find anything new at all ;) | 21:13 | ||
| masak | that's something you can't guarantee in research. | 21:14 | |
| I think I might actually call it an early night tonight. | 22:05 | ||
| I have to get up early tomorrow, and before that I have to learn a lot of Chinese characters. | |||
| might as well do that at home. | |||
