:lol: Yes, and if the human race isn't extinct by December, I'll be very disappointed.

One more thing, lj. When Clodfobble marks her progress in her sig, we are only able to see the present value. When I make posts of that value, we're able to see a progression with the value and a time date stamp. I haven't been very diligent in my tracking of these changes, but as more data points are recorded, the chances of detecting a pattern increase. At least, that is my hope.

SteveDallas 07-18-2008 11:26 AM

Can you make a chart that will push updates to my iPod Touch automatically?

BigV 07-18-2008 11:43 AM

No.

My MSAccess<-->iPod connector is not out of beta yet.

first one that doesn't end in "4"

Clodfobble 07-21-2008 03:07 PM

That's coincidence. But it's funny, because now it's back to ending in 4 again.

lookout123 07-21-2008 03:09 PM

In the beginning I thought maybe this was a rolldown of personal debt. If it is I want to learn from you Clodfobble, cuz yer doin it fast.

HungLikeJesus 07-21-2008 03:10 PM

At this rate you'll be down to zero by the end of October.

Clodfobble 07-21-2008 03:29 PM

Yeah, but rates aren't so useful when you don't have a lot of data points. Miss just one day at this point, and it adds like two weeks to the projected schedule. Can't get cocky.

HungLikeJesus 07-21-2008 04:01 PM

I've accounted for such variances by modeling the data as a stochastic oscillator.

I expect you to miss 3.7 days completely, and to have another 7.12 days of negative progress.

zippyt 07-21-2008 04:04 PM

number of paid hours or minets until yer job goes away Clodd ??

lookout123 07-21-2008 06:30 PM

it's distinct sounds she is learning to make with her mouth so she can sound like a walking video game.

footfootfoot 07-21-2008 08:31 PM

I'm sure it has something to do with sound files, that's her bag, baby. [/austin]

And / or I once had a job where I had to input data from paper forms into the computer into some sort of data base. Kind of like stuffing envelopes, as a matter of fact. (I miss my dad tonight, shitty envelopes and all)

So I think Clod has to process some sort of file in real time which would mean sound or video to me, (a single image you can see all at once) it could be words, but I don't think Clod would stoop to data entry, she's actually a nerdy brainiac trapped in the body of a nascent soccermom.

But I digress.

lookout123 07-21-2008 11:40 PM

you say that like it's a bad thing. trust me, there are worse things to be stuck in than a soccermom.

er... nevermind.

I apologize. I intended no distress, and I regret that I made you feel bad. I'm sorry.

Clodfobble 07-23-2008 09:47 AM

:lol: I meant feel bad for you guys, not genuinely bad. It's like a puppy who can't figure out where the hidden toy is.

Maybe in another ten posts or so, someone will ask again if it's money... ;)

lookout123 07-23-2008 11:05 AM

M&M's in the jar on your counter?

BigV 07-23-2008 11:09 AM

33,571 today. No progress.

glatt 07-23-2008 11:19 AM

No progress. Clodflobble is slacking off. Slacker!

Clodfobble 07-23-2008 12:23 PM

Yeah, it just wasn't going to happen yesterday. I took Minifob to play at a friend's house, and then I spent naptime prepping dinner, and then I got on the cellar for awhile, and nothing ever gets done between 5:00 and 9:00 that's not directly kid-related, and then I had to go do a recording after the kids were asleep.

Excuses, excuses. But I got a little done this morning!

lookout123 07-23-2008 12:27 PM

Pictures stored on various disks and harddrives that she has to sort through.

If it were various drives there would be some work involved in calculating the running total.

I think it's something that can be done at the rate of a few hundred an hour. Like shots of tequila.

BigV 07-23-2008 12:48 PM

33,472.

Noted.

classicman 07-23-2008 12:53 PM

amount of disk space used saving stuff?

BigV 07-23-2008 02:17 PM

being reduced as she deletes items? Maybe.

footfootfoot 07-24-2008 09:07 AM

But why would she need to slowly review each item as opposed to just closing her eyes and hitting "format?"

If I was cleaning out my hard drive, it would never hit zero. I'd just be removing junk until I only had good stuff left, and I wouldn't know how much junk I had until I reviewed it all.

footfootfoot 07-24-2008 11:58 AM

It's been a little over ten posts, is it money?

lookout123 07-24-2008 12:46 PM

ah, heck I can spend my way to zero faster than that if it's money!;)

monster 07-25-2008 02:40 PM

She's plucking the hairs on her legs rather than shaving. that's why the project increases disproportionately if she misses a few days. oh and minifob is doing the counting and he like numbers endiing with 4.

Still on track for mid-October finish.

I'll put $100 in the tip mug if she's down to 0 by October 16th. Anyone else?

lookout123 08-12-2008 12:57 PM

I'm in for a hundred on that action HLJ.

Clodfobble 08-12-2008 12:59 PM

Holy shit! Now if I don't make it, I'll feel terrible that I effectively screwed Tony out of $200. Thanks, guys. Better get back to work. :rolleyes:

BigV 08-12-2008 01:03 PM

I'm playin with the big boys now!

I'll tip $100 if she finishes by 30 Aug.
I'll tip $50 if she finishes by 15 Sep.
I'll tip $25 if she finishes by 30 Sep.
I'll be be back on my regular schedule beyond that.

I have an additional condition: I want to know what's been counted, including a reasonable explanation.

BigV 08-12-2008 01:05 PM

Great.

<strike>I've</strike> We've just driven CF out of the cellar for a month. There goes the neighborhood.

lookout123 08-12-2008 01:35 PM

As additional motivation if she doesn't finish by October 15th, I'll do my best to get everyone looking for that picture of Clodfobble peeing on the floor of the liquor store again.

Wait! no, don't start looking yet!;)

Clodfobble 08-12-2008 02:30 PM

Ahem... just for the lurkers out there, it wasn't actually me in the picture...

BigV 08-12-2008 02:34 PM

Which you would say, regardless.

lookout123 08-12-2008 03:26 PM

nice attempt at damage control Clodfobble.

BigV 08-12-2008 04:05 PM

If you don't have bladder control, damage control is the next best thing...
