snap-lrick_h: Session tanked overnight?12:22
rick_hdid an upgrade, left it alone, couldn't get the display back up at all12:22
rick_hso rebooted, only now things are hosed and won't boot12:23
snap-llovely12:23
rick_hyep, guessing the upgrade stalled and asked for something and I rebooted with it incomplete12:23
brouschrick_h: what blew up?12:39
rick_hbrousch: my precise desktop12:39
brouschdoh12:39
rick_hyea12:39
brouschdogfood not so good :(12:47
rick_hnaw, it's just a result of the desktop not getting love nad being stacked over on synergy12:47
rick_hand I ran the update without following it until the next day12:47
rick_hmeh, not totally surprised I guess. I even thought about ssh'ing into the machine when the screen didn't come back. I shold have killed the update and restarted it from the ssh term but didn't12:48
rick_hmoron move on my end12:48
rick_hfortunately it wasn't doing anything except acting as another screen to run browsers on12:48

brouschtjagoda: apparently he has a following at my wife's work too13:00
tjagodaWithout facebook how would I be kept in the loop about George's antics?13:00
brouschrick_h: it's where you go to argue about evolution and post funny quotes from your kids13:00
tjagodaSurely nobody else has cracked this social technology?!13:01
rick_htjagoda: haven't you need the meme? You're supposed to publish videos on a blog named "sh!t my son says"13:01

snap-lGOod morning again from the other side of the screen. :)13:09
rick_hbrousch: the dev server when you run " make run_dev" uses it13:09
rick_hbrousch: but bmark.us is deployed with uwsgi + nginx13:09
brouschgunicorn worked easily on heroku13:09
tjagodaNo wonder its so damn slow! =P13:09
rick_hbrousch: cool13:10
rick_hI'd have figured they'd run your wsgi app itself vs proxying but ok13:10
brouschheh sqlalchemy insertion guy is doing it on windows13:12
brouschfound your bottleneck!13:12
rick_hnaw, but writing out an answer about how transations work and all that will be too much work13:14
rick_hand the answer should be "use your damn db import mechanism"13:14

tjagodaImpossible to tell when he's angry because his voice does not change, takes 20 minutes to say something that should be 5 words, forgets to tell me when meeting times change15:48
tjagodaetc.15:48
tjagodaAlso bad at the hearing part of listening15:49
tjagoda=P15:49
tjagoda"This will take four months."15:49
tjagoda"So are we looking at 2 or 3 months?"15:49
tjagoda"...This will take four months."15:49
rick_hthat's just the manager in him.15:50
rick_h"ok, so what you mean is that if I manage you well it can be half that. Nothing can possibly take 4 months to do"15:50
tjagodaThats actually step two15:51
tjagodaStep one is just getting him to hear the same words you said15:51
tjagodaStep two is him then doing the manager =(15:51
snap-l"Claim your 300% Euro today - offer expires at midnight."15:51
tjagodaIts like double-manager psychology15:52
snap-lWhat's the exchange rate on 300% nowadays?15:52
snap-ltjagoda: Doing the manager?15:52
snap-lIs that a dance move, or an aspiration? :)15:52
tjagodaI found on ebay last night that my Lego Millennium Falcon increased in value by 125%15:52
tjagodaThus marking my first awesome purchase ever15:53
snap-ltjagoda: Completed auctions, or buy it now shennanigans?15:53
tjagodaCompleted auctions15:53

tjagodaI promise you I paid nowhere near that sum15:54
snap-lAmazon is ridiculous for OOP stuff15:54
tjagodaThe Ebay prices are a bit lower15:54
tjagodain the 1200-1400 range15:54
snap-lsomeone marks something as a collectible, and pretty soon it's going for 500% above retail15:54
jrwrenwhy didn't anyone tell me that pypy is so awesome?15:55
rick_hjrwren: because we didn't know you had cpu bound python2 problems?15:56
snap-lHonestly, if Amazon doesn't ship it from their warehouse, I'm more reluctant to purchase it15:56
rick_hsnap-l: +115:56
jrwren+115:56
snap-lWhich is humorous because I sell stuff on Amazon all the time. :)15:57
jrwrenyou do?15:57
snap-ljrwren: Yeah, mostly used books and shit15:57
jrwrencool15:57
* snap-l is a long-time ebayer too, but don't sell there anymore15:58
snap-lThey kept jerking around sellers15:58
snap-lLast straw was witholding payments if you didn't do X number of transactions per month or something15:58
tjagodaI like to think that people named "Regan" were named in some kind of honorary tribute to the former President Ronald Reagan.15:59
snap-lI don't remember what it was offhand, but it essentially meant they'd keep the money for a while if you weren't blowing out massive amounts of transactions per month15:59
tjagodaOr as you may have heard him colloquially referred to within the Republican party, "Jesus."15:59
snap-lwhich is anathema to someone who sells maybe 2 items per month online16:00
snap-ltjagoda: I love how Regan is revered in the Republican partyh.16:00
tjagodaLike an elevation to Sainthood16:01
rick_hjrwren: what are you doing with pypy?16:01
snap-ltjagoda: Pretty much16:03
tjagodaI think16:03
tjagodathat it is taco bell o-clock.16:04
tjagodaafk lunch16:04
jrwrennothing.16:13
jrwrenbut i just finally heard a desc of pypy more than just "python in python"16:13
jrwreni had no idea there was a native machine jitter16:13
rick_hjrwren: yea, it's pretty cool if you've got some cpu heavy stuff16:14
jrwrenit sounds awesome.16:15
jrwrenand has stackless options.16:15
rick_hit's done wonders for the native python implementation of libraries16:16
jrwrenmakes me want to try out a stackless greenlet-per-request server on it.16:16
rick_hheh16:16
jrwrenwell, ctypes are awesome.16:16
rick_hanyone tried https://github.com/scrooloose/syntastic16:36
snap-lrick_h: Not yet, but looks pretty interesting.16:41
tjagodaI like how terrified users get when I access the windows share and they realize I can inspect their entire PC at any time16:45
rick_hheh16:46
rick_hI used to get that when I took over their terminal server sessions16:46
rick_hnothing like taking over their mouse and clicking wherever the #@$#@ you feel like in front of them, especially when they're remote16:46

tjagodaAs if Republicans weren't unlikely enough to win already16:51
jrwrenwtf do people think when they are on a corporate networK?16:54
snap-lAnd this is why I use SSH tunnels whenever possible16:54
jrwreni used to remove domain admins from my local administrator group to try to prevent some of that, but I know as an AD joined machine, they can apply a GPO at any time to add it back.16:54
tjagodaWhen they're on a corporate network on corporate machines16:55
jrwrenwhat I'm not sure about is if GPO can be applied without a reboot or relogin16:55
snap-lIt's not that I do things that I think need to be private, it's because I don't like to broadcast what I'm doing.16:55
snap-lhttp://avinashsingh.wordpress.com/2007/04/05/a-myth-called-the-indian-programmer/16:58
snap-lPretty broad strokes, but mirrors some of my experience.16:59
snap-lThat said, we did get some very bright folks over at Chrysler.17:00
jrwrenits a b.s. difference between "programmers" and "coders"17:09
jrwrenIME there is no difference.17:09
jrwrenthe premise on which his post is written is a falacy17:09
jrwrenthat said, I completely understand what he is saying :)17:09
snap-lYeah, the terminology is a bit wonky17:10
snap-lIt's a little disturbing that the term Coder is somehow the more derogatory form of programmer17:12
jrwrenits not in my book.17:12
snap-lI think it is up to us to rectify that and come  up with more derogatory terms17:12
snap-lkeyboard jockey, perhaps?17:13
jrwrena top knoch coder is worth a ton17:13
jrwrenbut IME great coders are also architects.17:13

snap-lActually, it's not turned on by default in 5.118:49
snap-lI think they wised up18:49
rick_hah, yea should be able to turn off loggin, transactions, and crank an import pretty quick18:49
snap-lUnfortunately  I'm an hour into this18:54
snap-lso I'm loathe to stop it on the off-chance that it's 90% done18:55
snap-lAnd now that i look at how  it's handling this (ls -al), I'm going to cut bait.18:56
