[01:33] <valorie> androidbruce: I woke up the same way a couple of days ago
[01:33] <valorie> neti pot to the rescue
[01:33] <valorie> if you do it soon enough
[01:33] <valorie> I do not have time to get sick!
[01:34]  * valorie passes out the vitamin C
[02:16] <bkerensa> valorie: I hope to apply for Membership next month (if timing works out)
[02:16] <bkerensa> Just sent out a e-mail to a bunch of Ubuntu types seeking more testimonials
[02:16] <bkerensa> :D
[02:17] <valorie> did I already write on your page?
[02:17] <valorie> if not, I will
[02:17] <valorie> maybe I can make it down for your release party
[02:17] <valorie> can't make plans atm, too much happening all at once.....
[02:20] <bkerensa> valorie: Yeah you got me :D
[02:20] <bkerensa> valorie: I know that feeling... Been kinda burned out myself lately and still so much to do
[02:20] <bkerensa> :P
[02:21] <valorie> {{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{hugs}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}
[02:21] <valorie> cut out some things you don't like
[02:21] <valorie> hand them to someone who DOES like them
[02:21] <valorie> burnout is nothing to joke about
[02:22] <bkerensa> valorie: I carry the entire load for our loco
[02:22] <bkerensa> :(
[02:22] <bkerensa> Events, Website, Meetings, Wiki etc
[02:22] <bkerensa> =/
[02:22] <bkerensa> then my contributions to other teams
[02:23] <bkerensa> and IRL stuff
[02:23] <valorie> that isn't good for your team
[02:23] <valorie> they need stuff to do
[02:23] <valorie> so start delegating, man!
[02:24] <valorie> I'm going to go get my flu shot
[02:24] <valorie> want it before getting on an airplane......
[02:25] <bkerensa> valorie: ttyl :D
[04:56]  * valorie comes back from the store laden with party goodies
[19:39] <thefinn93> release party tonight?
[19:39]  * thefinn93 is excited
[19:39] <thefinn93> I'll be there, ~10 minutes late. 2hr bus ride
[19:40] <bkerensa> :D
[19:40] <bkerensa> valorie: please take pics :D
[20:29] <seattlegaucho> Crap! I forgot!
[20:29] <seattlegaucho> won't be able to get there :,(
[20:30]  * seattlegaucho will have to think of something
[20:33] <bkerensa> seattlegaucho: :(
[21:06] <valorie> *I* plan on having a good time, even if I'm by myself
[21:06] <valorie> :-)
[21:26] <bkerensa> valorie: Finn is coming... I insisted he go
[21:26] <bkerensa> :P
[22:03] <seattlegaucho> If I haven't been abused by my co-workers the rest of the day ... I'll go
[22:03] <seattlegaucho> it'll give me a good excuse to ride the light rail back and forth
[22:04] <seattlegaucho> ... anb BTW, we're desperately looking for an experienced MySQL DBA in Seattle ... pls pass the word along to your network
[22:10] <valorie> seattlegaucho: your folks should send an email to the Linuxchix job-posting
[22:10] <valorie> list
[22:11] <valorie> http://www.linuxchix.org/jobposts-list-guidelines.html
[22:11] <valorie> they don't have to sub -- just follow the guidelines and send the email
[22:11] <valorie> or you can do it
[22:12] <valorie> I'm one of the admins
[22:13] <valorie> and yay for Finn!
[22:13] <valorie> I can give him a ride home after, if he needs/wants it
[22:24] <seattlegaucho> valorie: thx for the URL ... I asked our recruiter to post the job there
[22:27] <valorie> awesome!
[22:28] <valorie> I think the economy is picking up a bit -- there have been some actual job postings lately
[22:37] <seattlegaucho> I never ever saw a slow down reg mysql dbas
[22:38] <bkerensa> I could never do a mysql dbas job
[22:38] <seattlegaucho> valorie: If I go tonight ... can you give me a ride back to the light rail by the airport?
[22:38] <bkerensa> to focused one such simple stuff 
[22:38] <bkerensa> :D
[22:38] <seattlegaucho> bkerensa: then you don't have the skills we look for :p
[22:38] <bkerensa> never understood why companies hired Mysql dbas versus a full sysadmin
[22:39] <seattlegaucho> Oh my ... I might need to go tonight to the party after all
[22:39] <bkerensa> seattlegaucho: ;) I could do circles around any mysql scenario... I just don't want a 9 to 5 ;) I turn down freelance projects every single month :P
[22:41] <bkerensa> Someone just last week offered to pay me $100 to install Open EMR which takes like 10 mins tops :P and I passed on it
[22:41] <bkerensa> ;)
[22:41] <seattlegaucho> for our number of servers, any sysadmin would spend all their time doing mysql chores and r&d ... so they wouldn't be a sys admin anymore
[22:42] <seattlegaucho> ... and then you factor in high availability, backups and monitoring ... and a DBAs job is never done
[22:42] <seattlegaucho> ... which goes beyond simple replication and linux ha
[22:43] <bkerensa> seattlegaucho: Why not automate the mysql work flow with puppet or another solution?
[22:43] <seattlegaucho> never mind performance enhancements (80% of the time beyond a sysadmins skill set), db design, sharding, etc
[22:44] <seattlegaucho> bkerensa: we use puppet and a number of other skills ... but there's way more to it that puppet can't handle
[22:44] <seattlegaucho> s/skills/tools/
[22:44] <bkerensa> seattlegaucho: You guys use Workbench too I imagine?
[22:44] <seattlegaucho> nope ... it's too immature
[22:45] <seattlegaucho> bkerensa: for full disclosure I should mention that I used to work @ MySQL since we were < 50 people through the Sun acquisition ;)
[22:46] <bkerensa> seattleguacho: Yeah and Oracle uses Workbench in-house atleast thats what the MySQL/Oracle Community Manager told me
[22:46] <bkerensa> :P
[22:46] <seattlegaucho> yeah right ... I know them all by name and the only reason they do is because they tip-toe around the bugs
[22:47] <seattlegaucho> you have to define all the connections parameters by hand ... ssh & mysql ... try that w/ 200+ servers
[22:47] <valorie> definitely -- I'm taking off in a few so I can get the room set up and such
[22:47] <seattlegaucho> bash is your friend in those cases
[22:47] <valorie> my phone # is 253-740-2725 if you need to text
[22:47] <MJEvans> Oh it's tonight?  I forgot, I don't hve anything ready x.x
[22:48] <seattlegaucho> "apt-get dist-upgrade" is not possible yet ... my upgrade will have wait
[22:49] <valorie> MJEvans: I'm not going to burn anymore CD/DVDs -- just thumbdrives
[22:49] <valorie> I have ones from a couple of days ago though
[22:49] <bkerensa> valorie: Yeah I'm looking into finding some 2gb flash drives then reaching out to one of our loco's sponsors to get some made/bought/shipped
[22:49] <MJEvans> The launch party also isn't dinner this time...
[22:50] <bkerensa> Going forward each member will get a USB and we can just throw the new image one
[22:50] <MJEvans> Which is less incentive for me to go
[22:50] <bkerensa> but Kingston also gave me a 64GB dual band wifi storage thingy that I store ISO's on and then members can connect wirelessly and download whatever they need
[22:51] <valorie> well, we can order in pizza
[22:51] <valorie> and I'm bringing bread, cheese, drinks, veggies
[22:51] <valorie> Michael, it's close to you!
[22:51] <valorie> you can burn CDs at the party if you want
[22:52] <valorie> that's awesome, bkerensa
[22:52]  * valorie has all the Kub. ISOs
[22:52] <bkerensa> :(
[22:52] <bkerensa> valorie: bad news
[22:52] <bkerensa> thefinn93 got stuck
[22:53] <bkerensa> :(
[22:53] <bkerensa> his bus pass failed apparently he is coming on irc
[22:53] <valorie> boo
[22:53] <seattlegaucho> valorie: could I get one (or 2) of your ISO onto one of my USBs?
[22:53] <valorie> with multiboot that works
[22:53] <seattlegaucho> I might want to do the upgrade using the alternate CD
[22:53] <valorie> or just straight-ahead copying
[22:53] <valorie> I've been zsyncing for a couple of weeks for testing
[22:54] <seattlegaucho> zsyncing?
[22:54] <valorie> anyway, need to shut down the machines and pack 'em up
[22:54] <valorie> see you at the party I hope
[22:54] <valorie> with bells on!
[22:54] <thefinn93> duurp
[22:54]  * seattlegaucho hopes someone will give him a ride to the light rail 
[22:54] <thefinn93> I fail at bus pass
[22:54] <valorie> yes, zsync just downloads the changes daily
[22:55] <valorie> I will give anyone a ride who needs it
[22:55] <valorie> bye for now
[23:05] <thefinn93> valorie, will you give me a ride from Bothell?
[23:06] <MJEvans> thefinn93: asked too late and I think valorie lives out south of auburn
[23:06] <thefinn93> darn
[23:06] <thefinn93> my silly bus pass didn't work
[23:06] <thefinn93> i'm confused how these UW passes work
[23:12] <MJEvans> I have no clue
[23:15] <valorie> bus drivers HAVE to let you ride
[23:15] <valorie> even with no money
[23:15] <valorie> now I'm really off......
[23:15] <MJEvans> thefinn93: there you go then...
[23:16] <MJEvans> http://www.washington.edu/facilities/transportation/commuterservices/u-pass
[23:16] <thefinn93> yeah
[23:16] <thefinn93> i've figured it out
[23:16] <thefinn93> but it takes 24 hrs to activate
[23:17] <thefinn93> i thoguht it was activated
[23:17] <thefinn93> oh well
[23:17] <thefinn93> valorie might pick me up
[23:17] <thefinn93> i've been texting her
[23:18] <MJEvans> thefinn93: has it been 60 days since you obtained it?
[23:18] <MJEvans> tapping the orca reader didn't help?
[23:20] <thefinn93> yeah i think I just didn't pay
[23:20] <thefinn93> and i thought i did
[23:20] <thefinn93> i tapped it on the reader thing
[23:20] <thefinn93> and it said insufficient funds
[23:20] <MJEvans> crazy
[23:20] <thefinn93> eh
[23:20] <thefinn93> these crazy machine
[23:20] <thefinn93> i don't understand computers
[23:28] <bkerensa> thefinn93: They have to let u ride with no money?
[23:28] <bkerensa> wow
[23:28] <thefinn93> so i've heard
[23:28] <thefinn93> but i don't wanna fuck it up
[23:29] <thefinn93> i'll just pay it and come to the next one

[23:56] <seattlegaucho> thefinn93: you just need to show it with the sticker for the quarther
[23:56] <seattlegaucho> *quarter
