Stop traveling into the future #190

Closed allquixotic closed 10 years ago

allquixotic commented 10 years ago

years This is a feature request to kindly ask our time-traveling overlord (who is likely also to blame for the rapid evolution of the microprocessor; Moore's Law should be renamed Zirak's Law) to stop traveling into the future when writing code.

Seriously, we all appreciate that you're sitting on huge stacks of cash by selling future inventions to Intel to keep the economy of 2014 operating efficiently, but these time-shifted commits are depressing. The fact that JavaScript is still around in 2150 makes me very, very sad.

If you're going to contribute to the chat bot -- which is much appreciated -- please do so in the present. Thank you.

Sorry about that, Tardis functionality isn't quite stable yet - sometimes HTTP requests leak over time due to its timey wimey nature. I don't quite know how to fix that ("that" being both the Tardis functionality, and fixing the commit to the actual date). Any advice is appreciated.

In unrelated news, invest in MCX:ZIRE.

Thanks for the tip! I'm tempted to close this issue myself, out of respect for your sheer time-traveling power. I'll definitely take your advice and invest in MCX:ZIRE.

Of course, that might end up being a curse; what if making a lot of money ends up getting me killed because I'm a high profile target? Hmm... maybe I shouldn't take the advice! But if I don't take the advice, you'll know that in the future, too, and maybe I die of starvation on the street! Hmm!

Gah, this is hard.... my linear mind can't comprehend your timey-wimey stuff, Lord Zirak. If I ever see a statue, I'm never going to blink. I promise.

Side effects may include nausea, headaches, phantom pains, general soreness, random dismemberment and death, and a need for other contributors to rebase.

@allquixotic remember to also not look into their eyes. Never take your eyes off them, but never look into their eyes.

I'm pleased to inform that some wibbly wobblyness has been unwibbled wobbled, and you may resume your boring, mundane human life.

If any of you are eggplants or are affected by this change (as in, you pulled from the bot), please see Recovering from upstream rebase for rebasing. Luckily for all of us, this seems to be the easy case.
