| 13:03:58 | watusimoto | hello |
| 13:04:04 | watusimoto | man, taxes are killing me |
| 13:04:11 | | Invisible has joined |
| 13:04:31 | raptor | TAXES, TAXES! |
| 13:04:33 | watusimoto | form 1116 is the most convoluted roundabout unclear craptacular form |
| 13:04:34 | | Invisible is now known as Guest65150 |
| 13:05:13 | raptor | foreign tax credit... that's right, you have some extra complexity this year |
| 13:05:17 | watusimoto | and after spending an hour figuring it out every year, I end up with the same result... essentially a nullop |
| 13:05:22 | watusimoto | oh man |
| 13:06:07 | watusimoto | foreign earned income; moving; rental property (partial year); but wait! there's more! |
| 13:06:20 | watusimoto | then I need to do Oregon taxes again |
| 13:06:47 | watusimoto | partail year, again, adding to the complexity (every income item/deduction must be allocated to state or non-state) |
| 13:07:42 | watusimoto | I'm an honest tax payer; but if I weren't, there's a lot of judgement in my return this year |
| 13:07:50 | raptor | hah |
| 13:08:01 | raptor | what do you think your risk of audit would be? |
| 13:08:07 | watusimoto | very low |
| 13:08:23 | watusimoto | at least that's what my tax program says |
| 13:08:41 | watusimoto | I didn't have most of the income types I warned you about earlier |
| 13:09:20 | raptor | i used H&R Block this year. the interface was the best i'd seen yet |
| 13:09:29 | watusimoto | and my situation is a bit unusual, so I may not fall into any of the neat audit categories |
| 13:09:37 | watusimoto | that's what I use too |
| 13:09:47 | watusimoto | the UI is good until you need to do 1116 |
| 13:09:54 | raptor | oh? |
| 13:10:00 | watusimoto | and then it sux0rs major big time |
| 13:10:14 | watusimoto | it basically dumps you to their version of the form, with very little guidance |
| 13:10:37 | watusimoto | it would be really easy to automate that form for common cases (taxes reported by mutual funds) |
| 13:11:04 | watusimoto | I've been using tax cut for years, and I know where it falls short |
| 13:11:47 | watusimoto | at least this year they had the common Oregon tax credits that I take every year in a form (rather than forcing you to remember them and look up the codes and manually enter them) |
| 13:12:05 | watusimoto | OR gives every tax payer $50 to contribute to political campaigns |
| 13:12:15 | watusimoto | that's a straight credit (not a deduction) use it or lose it |
| 13:13:38 | watusimoto | see this? |

| 13:15:59 | watusimoto | also... shashdot has some good stories today! |
| 13:16:19 | watusimoto | (especially if you are up on your sci-fi) |
| 13:21:02 | raptor | i gave up slashdot years ago |
| 13:21:15 | raptor | but maybe as an rss feed it may still be OK... |
| 13:21:40 | watusimoto | well, check it today |
| 13:21:54 | raptor | OH WAIT |
| 13:21:57 | raptor | it that's time of year! |
| 14:11:53 | watusimoto | also... have you seen the pacman option on google maps? |
| 14:22:52 | raptor | what? no |
| 14:22:57 | raptor | how do i get to that? |
| 14:23:15 | raptor | never mind... |
| 14:25:52 | raptor | playing in downtown provo now |
| 14:34:17 | watusimoto | it's well done |
| 14:40:23 | raptor | they've gotta be using a library like clipper |

| 15:15:44 | watusimoto | yes, probably so. is it all done client side? it would be interesting if they managed to do it all in the demon js |
| 15:16:11 | raptor | i suspect the must do much of it client side |

| 17:18:45 | raptor | I'm afriad I'm a bit stuck on the rendering refactor - there are two things that are difficult to convert to the abstraction layer without more complex methods: the logo rendering and the stars rendering |
| 17:19:23 | raptor | it may not really be that difficult, just that my tired head can't handle it late at night |
| 17:19:51 | raptor | i think i have an idea forward with rendering the logo, but the stars are much more complex.. |
| 17:38:56 | raptor | that IRS story is crazy! |

| 18:57:28 | watusimoto | oooh... the logo rendering |
| 18:58:30 | watusimoto | that, I would think, could be converted to a simple set of render_line_loops, if it hasn't already been, which would be similar to rendering, say, a box or whatnot |
| 18:58:45 | watusimoto | each letter is just a long list of coords, no? |
| 19:00:10 | watusimoto | the stars... well... that is just a mess, I agree. The concept is pretty basic, though; render a set of points. I imagine it could be rewritten to use some sort of 3-d transform to get the same effect via different means |
| 19:00:25 | watusimoto | I assume it is the 3-dishness that is the problem |
| 19:04:14 | raptor | yes, it's gltranslate with dynamic stuff |
| 19:04:16 | raptor | sorry, gotta go! |
| 19:04:18 | raptor | later! |

| 22:01:25 | watusimoto | yay logo! |
| 22:01:54 | watusimoto | the stars were something I did when I very first started with Bitfighter... I really had no idea what I was doing, so it may be pretty screwy |
| 22:02:07 | raptor | i have to reverse engineer the math first |
| 22:02:31 | watusimoto | maybe reengineer it... or perhaps just engineer it! |
| 22:03:45 | raptor | i could probably do some significant optimization here.. |
| 22:03:55 | raptor | or at least simplification |
| 22:03:58 | raptor | once i get the math |
| 22:04:32 | watusimoto | ok, well I got to head home before the rain starts again |
| 22:04:39 | raptor | later! |
| 22:04:43 | watusimoto | talk to you later... more taxes in my future. :-( |
