[00:38] <Blazeix> eli grey's answer is awesome: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5438540/simple-javascript-math-problem
[00:41] <rick_h_> Blazeix: that's just cruel
[00:42] <snap-l> That's awesome
[00:43] <_stink_> yes, awesome for sure
[00:43] <_stink_> that Error string is hilarious
[00:45] <rick_h_> "Slow down..."
[00:51] <snap-l> http://paste.mitechie.com/show/264/
[00:51] <snap-l> There's how I'd do it in Python
[00:53] <rick_h_> now how to get that code into bookie?
[00:53] <rick_h_> "hey, that's production code"
[00:59] <snap-l> wow, talk about a dogpile
[00:59] <snap-l> comments on that .Net article are pouring in
[01:00] <snap-l> made the mistake of subscribing to them
[01:00] <rick_h_> heh, I still need to go read it
[01:00] <rick_h_> saw the link on my phone, but didn't get it up yet

[01:03] <rick_h_> lol
[01:04] <rick_h_> this sounds a lot like my "never try to talk SOAP with a .net dev" story
[01:05] <rick_h_> oh man, <3 this...but yea can tell he's going to get creamed
[01:06] <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-l> I'm not the biggest fan of .NET, but I'm not going to go around calling them short order cooks
[01:06] <rick_h_> then clearly he wasn't talking to you
[01:06] <rick_h_> heh, I will :)
[01:06] <rick_h_> 80/20 rule sure, but you can still say it
[01:06] <snap-l> There's short order cooks in every language
[01:07] <snap-l> and short-bus coders in every language
[01:07] <rick_h_> oh definitely, it's a broad brush he's painting with
[01:07] <rick_h_> but he's using it as a marker for his interviews
[01:07] <rick_h_> and that makes sense to me
[01:07] <snap-l> keep reading
[01:07] <rick_h_> http://blog.expensify.com/2011/03/25/ceo-friday-why-we-dont-hire-net-programmers/#comment-1306 <3 this one
[01:08] <snap-l> The guy is clearly demonstrating that he's an idiot
[01:08] <rick_h_> "but but but...we have stackoverflow, that's a .net successful startup/company"
[01:08] <rick_h_> yep...name another?
[01:08] <rick_h_> I mean jrwren is the poster boy for the exception to the rule and all
[01:10] <rick_h_> hah, comments are so good
[01:11] <rick_h_> and the mature ones step in: http://blog.expensify.com/2011/03/25/ceo-friday-why-we-dont-hire-net-programmers/#comment-1330
[01:12] <rick_h_> ok, good distraction, back to bookie

[14:58] <snap-l> rick_h_: Awesome!
[14:59] <snap-l> Oh this is priceless:

[15:01] <snap-l> http://paste.mitechie.com/show/265/

[15:10] <rick_h_droid> heh, pretty much
[15:35] <brousch> rick_h_: great interview with foord
[15:35] <rick_h_> yea? that was one a bit of the harder ones, didn't hink it was as smooth since I wasn't as up on the topics
[15:35] <brousch> i haven't listed to the others yet
[15:36] <brousch> i thught it was good because you were just knowledgable enough to ask questions
[15:36] <rick_h_> cool, glad it came out ok then
[15:36] <brousch> i really liked it
[15:36] <rick_h_> thanks for the comment
[15:36] <brousch> an advanced user interviewing a master
[15:37] <rick_h_> yea, he's a bit above my stuff for sure
[15:37] <brousch> it kept things at the right level
[15:37] <brousch> if it were a scrub interviewing it would have been much less interesting, and another master would have quickly gotten too technical
[15:38] <rick_h_> cool
[15:38] <brousch> sound was good too
[15:39] <rick_h_> heh, still had my mic backwads :/
[15:39] <brousch> i enjoyed the episode with the import podcast guys too
[15:40] <brousch> sounded like you all got along well and had fun
[15:40] <rick_h_> yea, good times
[15:41] <brousch> they brought up your codemash talk, but not your pyohio talk
[15:41] <brousch> i know one of them asked a question at pyohio. irecognized his voice
[15:42] <rick_h_> yea, I think it was because they just put out their codemash/etc
[15:42] <rick_h_> so it was in their minds
[15:42] <rick_h_> might not have realized pyohio was me
[15:43] <brousch> i love foord's voice and accent
[15:43] <brousch> he should do radio
[15:44] <rick_h_> hah, gotta love the english
[17:01] <brousch> greg-g: Are you going to send a reminder for next week's Global Jam?
[17:13] <rick_h_> brousch: as leader in training that falls to you :P
[17:59] <brousch> i went to bed early that night. is he officially out that day?
[18:01] <brousch> i'll send it if he's indisposed, otherwise i wanted to piggyback on it with my west side carpool reminder
[18:04] <rick_h_> brousch: heh, no. just an interview
[18:04] <rick_h_> I was joking
[18:42] <greg-g> brousch: sent!
[18:42] <greg-g> brousch: thanks for the reminder :)
[18:43] <greg-g> brousch: piggyback away
[18:47] <brousch> wordpress is awesome. i'm moving my blog from blogger
[18:48] <brousch> it can import all posts and comments, has easy rss inclusion, so i can embed my buzz and twitter feeds
[18:49] <brousch> greg-g: are you out of town on the 3rd?
[18:49] <greg-g> probably not, I'll probably be in town, it was just a possibility
[18:50] <greg-g> I'll just be out Tues night to Wednesday night (just taking one work day off)
[18:50] <greg-g> (the 6th)
[18:50] <greg-g> so, I can grab snack and all that (but you're more than welcome to bring something else as well)
[18:55] <brousch> hm, I'll think of something to bring
[18:57] <brousch> what awesome thing do we have on the west side that you east siders are deprived of? (besides a growing economy and population, clean air, and sparkling fresh lake michigan water, of course)
[19:01] <jcastro> brousch: you guys are missing out on some prime urban decay
[19:05] <brousch> i've seen pictures
[19:06] <brousch> i could bring beer from founders or new holland, but i don't know if we can drink it in jrwren's office
[19:17] <greg-g> jrwren: is beer allowed at SRT?
[19:18] <brousch> if not i'll bring some cupcakes from Marge's
[19:18] <greg-g> mmmmmmm, cupcakes
[19:23] <brousch> you should bring some of those potbean brownies
[20:09] <snap-l> Too bad tjagoda isn't here.
[20:09] <snap-l> http://www.geekculture.com/joyoftech/joyarchives/1520.html
[20:13] <rick_h_> heh, nice
[20:56] <snap-l> Jeez, talk about slow moving:
[20:56] <snap-l> http://developers.slashdot.org/story/11/03/26/1949225/ISO-C-Committee-Approves-C0x-Final-Draft
[20:56] <snap-l> C++0x is just getting to final draft status?
[23:51] <jrwren> greg-g: bring whatever you want :)
[23:52] <jrwren> greg-g: we often have beer on hand :)
[23:52] <jrwren> leaving some for monday is also very welcome :)
