rick_h_lol01:03
rick_h_this sounds a lot like my "never try to talk SOAP with a .net dev" story01:04
rick_h_oh man, <3 this...but yea can tell he's going to get creamed01:05
rick_h_lol "you're retarded"01:06
rick_h_I love that there's all these "I've used 20 languages for 15 years..."01:06
snap-lI'm not the biggest fan of .NET, but I'm not going to go around calling them short order cooks01:06
rick_h_then clearly he wasn't talking to you01:06
rick_h_heh, I will :)01:06
rick_h_80/20 rule sure, but you can still say it01:06
snap-lThere's short order cooks in every language01:06
snap-land short-bus coders in every language01:07
rick_h_oh definitely, it's a broad brush he's painting with01:07
rick_h_but he's using it as a marker for his interviews01:07
rick_h_and that makes sense to me01:07

rick_h_thanks for the comment15:36
brouschan advanced user interviewing a master15:36
rick_h_yea, he's a bit above my stuff for sure15:37
brouschit kept things at the right level15:37

brouschthey brought up your codemash talk, but not your pyohio talk15:41
brouschi know one of them asked a question at pyohio. irecognized his voice15:41
rick_h_yea, I think it was because they just put out their codemash/etc15:42
rick_h_so it was in their minds15:42
rick_h_might not have realized pyohio was me15:42
brouschi love foord's voice and accent15:43
brouschhe should do radio15:43
rick_h_hah, gotta love the english15:44
