          @omni +1 to api calls made every refresh (right now it's like 4 x.x)

            @minti I see no reason why you would call the notification code if there is nothing new?

              @omni And how does one find out if there's something new? :J

              @omni I'd still have to check for DMs. xD

                @minti DMs don't happen often, in general, it seems fine to me to check every 10 refreshes or so instead (especially if someone is not on the DM page)

                  @omni Hm. I could make it check every minute or so. There's a 2nd problem though, because I'm using the API I'd have to auth the user and EVERYONE hated that idea. XD

                        @minti IT IS OPEN SOURCE, DAMMIT, WHY WON'T PEOPLE READ THE SOURCE? They could just see it's not evil... (brb checking source to see if it really isn't)

                          @omni Most people /can't/ read the source. This is a huge stumbling block for open source in general. It is an advantage that 90% of people will literally never be able to utilise.

                              @omni Even then, it doesn't mean the code is intelligible, or well documented. Look at statusnet! Their API docs consist of "Look at twitters API docs, it's kind of like that, but twitters API has changed so you'll have to figure out which parts have changed and which haven't"

                                  @minti No complex code is self documenting. It's just the nature of the problem.

                                    @ceruleanspark It still can be. It doesn't help that it's all in 1 file and I had to do a few hacks to get it to cooperate with StatusNet though. :(

                                      @minti Code isn't self documenting if you document it yourself. Then it's just documented.

                                        @ceruleanspark Yeah. xD Self documenting code has everything named based on what it does and is easily scannable (read: simple/modular). You can have the 2nd one with just 1 file x.x

                                  @minti That stuff is easy. Just write a script which appends "//this does stuff" to each line of code.
