[4:26] <devinus> ryah: ryan dahl?
[4:49] <ryah> devinus: yes
[4:49] <devinus> ryah: i like nodejs
[4:50] <ryah> devinus: thanks
[4:50] <devinus> ryah: jealous that i didn't think of it myself, actually.
[4:51] <devinus> well i sort of did, i was having late night talk sessions with tom robinson from 280 north about making a v8 backend that used libev for awhile
[4:51] <devinus> even started implementing it
[4:51] <devinus> then i heard about node :)
[4:51] <devinus> i'm glad i didn't get too far with it
[4:52] <devinus> ryah: you definitely did far better than i could have
[4:53] <ryah> yeah - i think there were a couple people with the idea. interesting to hear about you too. when was that?
[4:54] <devinus> ryah: um...judging by my last github commit on it... around april
[4:54] <devinus> no
[4:54] <devinus> august, misread
[4:57] <ryah> devinus: can i see it?
[4:58] <devinus> ryah: it's literally nothing
[4:58] <devinus> http://github.com/devinus/hemi
[4:59] <devinus> ryah: i think kris kowal is trying to turn nodejs into a narwhal backend
[4:59] <devinus> which excited me greatly
[5:00] <ryah> yeah
[5:00] <ryah> i haven't been to helpful to him, i think. hopefully he'll straighten me out on what he needs tomorrow :)
[5:02] <devinus> ryah: saw you talk at the euro js conf, very cool. i'd like to try helping on that libpq backend at some point, but my knowledge of pg's c api consists of writing a c extension
[5:04] <ryah> devinus: well, more than my knowledge :)
[5:05] <ryah> devinus: I would love to have some help. I can't keep it up, really.
[5:07] <dmachi> its a lot of work
[5:07] <dmachi> I looked at trying to get it workign playing with http://code.google.com/p/llv8call/ last year, but realized it was much more than i had the time to tackle :)
