Time Nick Message 00:00 mtompset druthb: considering that before no one thought about this, I'd like to get it right. 00:01 druthb My assertion stands. There are a whole bunch of good tools for cooking random tokens, and they all seem to work just fine on sites way, way busier than a library catalog is likely to be. 00:01 mtompset can you point me at one. I rather trust something that works well than making my own. 00:03 druthb https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki//dev/random 00:04 druthb http://www.itworld.com/nlsunixrandom070531 00:06 mtompset I was reading a bug report on rand() which made it sound like it only had a 32768 upper limit on some OS's. 00:07 mtompset http://www.economist.com/blogs/graphicdetail/2013/02/daily-chart-7?fsrc=scn/tw/te/dc/dangerofdeath 00:07 mtompset I like the asteriod impact one at the bottom of the graph. :) 00:09 druthb I've never had a problem with rand(), in quite a few instances of using it for just this sort of thing. take rand(), multiply by oh, 10^10 or so, and then take abs(). Or else take a 11 char substr, s/\.//, and you have a herkin long number 00:11 mtompset why not substr($v,-11,11)? ;) 00:11 druthb If you just use rand(), without a param, the odds of it producing an int on its' own are quite tiny. if you take a substr starting with 0, you'll get 1 to 10 digits, with a *very* tiny chance of repetition during the same boot cycle...small enough that I totally wouldn't worry about it. 00:13 druthb There really is no such thing as "truly random." There are things we don't get (or don't have the patience to do) the math for, but they're not really random. What you're really looking for in this problem is "random enough to not have to worry about a repeat any time soon." Once you define "any time soon", you've defined the problem, really. 00:14 druthb if "any time soon" is, say, 1 second, then you could use the last digit of a seconds counter, and smirk happily and go on about your business. 00:15 mtompset I would say anytime soon, worst case for me, is 2 minutes. 00:15 druthb Ten digits worth of rand() is going to be way, way plenty, then. 00:15 mtompset because by then there would be a timeout on the webpage. :) 00:16 druthb (unless you're twitter. Then I'd say go for twenty.) 00:16 druthb (you're not twitter, so ten is plenty and a half.) 00:16 * druthb spent a whole semester on crap like that in Compiler Design, back in the 80s. It made her head hurt a lot. 00:16 mtompset perhaps I have random unique id envy? 00:17 mtompset [off] it's sort of like P* envy. 00:17 druthb Cleverness envy. And yes, it is like that. 00:18 * druthb , being female, is immune to that. 00:20 * mtompset gives druthb a look. 00:21 druthb Oh, I have other sorts of envy. I envy talljoy her amazing ability to wear amazing heels. Other things like that. But the one you name...no. 00:21 talljoy TALL SHOES 00:21 druthb <3 talljoy 00:21 talljoy LOL 00:21 talljoy hi druthb!!! 00:23 druthb seriously, though, mtompset, two minutes is an *eternity* to the entropy in /dev/random. rand() will be just fine for what you want. Give yourself ten digits or so for the my-number-is-bigger-than-yours factor, and move on to a problem that is more interesting and fun to work on. 00:24 mtompset druthb: Sorry for the slow reply. I stepped away, but yes... I was going to say just that. :P 00:25 druthb :) 01:03 mtompset druthb: Can I quote you in my commit message? ;) 01:03 druthb Absolutely. :P 01:31 mtompset As druthb said, "That's a much lower chance than the odds of you dying by asteroid collision, so you've probably got something workable there." 01:31 druthb heh 01:31 mtompset That's my last sentence of my commit message. :) 01:37 mtompset okay... druthb, are you familiar with git-bz? I'm quite rusty. 01:38 druthb not very; I've used it a few times, but I'm rusty, too. 01:38 mtompset So, I'll do the old git format patch way then. ;) 01:38 mtompset Unless someone else is lurking who knows git-bz. ;) 01:47 mtompset Okay... testing patch first... no sense putting up a busted patch. :) 01:55 mtompset Hmmm.... 01:55 mtompset Does anyone know about ALTER TABLE permissions? 01:56 mtompset I copied my production system DB over, and went to the staff client to force the upgrade on my git dev system. 01:56 mtompset I get a bunch of things like: [Fri Jun 21 21:53:20 2013] updatedatabase.pl: DBD::mysql::db do failed: Can't create table 'kohadata.#sql-3cb_ce' (errno: 121) at /home/mtompset/kohaclone/installer/data/mysql/updatedatabase.pl line 6877. 01:56 mtompset They seem to be ALTER TABLE's. 02:16 mtompset Nooooo! 02:17 mtompset Evil code... evil, evil code. 02:30 mtompset DOH! Bad tester! Bad tester. ;) 03:10 mtompset ARG! I refresh, and now my cardnumber skips again and again. 03:21 mtompset At least I know no duplicates are generated. :) 04:32 mtompset Have a great day (24 hour period) and weekend, #koha. 06:45 cait @wunder muenchen 06:46 huginn cait: The current temperature in Berglern, Mitterlern, Germany is 15.1°C (8:41 AM CEST on June 22, 2013).
