sidetapthere are not many jobs in ireland?16:38
tdr112its just started to rain16:38
sidetapi am from uk16:38
tdr112sidetap: lots of IT jobs16:38
ebellots of technical, it, programming and sysadmin jobs in ireland16:39
sidetapu dont have electronic jobs?16:39
sidetapall the factories went abroad?16:39
sidetapelectronic factories16:39
tdr112well intel are hiring like mad16:39

sidetapdublin?16:40

sidetapwho here is a programmer?16:42
sidetapwhats the best language to start with python16:43
sidetapfor ubuntu16:43
sidetapi was studying c++16:43
* ebel is a software guy 16:44
ebelsidetap: what do you want to do? Some languages are better for some tasks than others16:45
sidetapnot sure16:46
slashtomat the electronic engineer level, C or C++ would be more useful16:46
sidetapi want to be good at ubuntu use the shell terminal more16:46
ebelsysadmining!16:46
ebelThat's less programming, and more learning about the system, and how to make it do things.16:46
ebele.g. setting up and maintaining a web server, file server, vpn server, email server etc.16:47
sidetapi was using c++ for programming pic chips yes16:47
sidetapi should study python then?16:48
sidetapbash commands are python?16:48
ebelno, bash commands are in.... well bash16:49
ebelYou can programme in bash16:49
ebel"bash scripts" (also called "shell scripts", or "shell scripting")16:49
ebelit's good for simple programming, but for more complex programming (i.e. writing actual programme, you'll need something better)16:50
sidetapthats looks like a big intel factory in ireland i looked at the website17:08
sidetapits in kildare17:08
ebelin leixlip? that's about a 60 min bus ride from dublin17:09
sidetapyeah17:09

sidetapmost electronic factories went to poland  and europe places17:09
sidetapcheap labour17:10
sidetaparound 200017:10
sidetapintel stayed17:10
sidetap?17:10
ebeldell used to have a large assembly plant in limerick, but that closed a few years ago17:10
ebelI think the intel one is chip manufactueror, so it's high tech stuff17:10
moylanthe intel plant is so big they use bikes to get around and it isn't easy just to move a clean fab plant.  my company once sold an amd computer to intel.  our proudest moment! :-)17:11
ebelThere is a lot of pharmacutical manufactors in ireland17:11
sidetapu work for amd?17:12
sidetapallmy computers are amd i like amd17:12
sidetapathlon chips17:12

moylandell were in bray co.wicklow17:17
ebelno, dell's call centre is/was in bray, co. wicklow, but their assebly plant was in limerick17:17
ebel(in co. limerick)17:17
moylanwhoops ebel is correct.  i just knew a ton of folk who worked in the bray plant.17:18
moylansome even sent to poland to train their successors.17:18
sidetaprepair the money is in repair work17:18
ebelThe money is in programming.17:19
ebelThere is a massive demand for programmers/sysadmins.17:19
ebelthere are more jobs than workers17:19
sidetapprogramming what?17:22
sidetapexample?17:23
sidetaphence i am not a programmer17:23
ebelanything.17:25
ebelI do web programming (and have done linux sysadmining)17:25
sidetapjava is web?17:27
ebelyeah17:28
sidetapwould u work in a team17:29
ebeldepends17:32
ebelif you're in a small company (e.g. like I am now), then there are other developers, but you are working mostly on your own stuff17:33
ebelsorta17:33
sidetapuh17:35
sidetapso17:36

sidetaptheres not many jobs here in the uk17:43
sidetapaustralia has millions ofjobs17:43
ebelhard to get into17:47
sidetapwhy hard?17:48
ebeland lots of people go there and have to work in farms. it's like cheap white slave labour.17:48
sidetapha ha17:48
sidetapnooooo17:48
ebelYou can't just move there, like you can in EU. You need someone to sponsor you, etc. I think.17:48
sidetapskills shortage lists17:49
sidetapgo google it17:49
sidetapinstalling software ubuntu17:54
sidetaphow do u do it manually17:55
