s-foxHi08:20
czajkowskimorning08:20
s-foxAnd a wet one at that czajkowski ;) How are you?08:20
czajkowskinot bad thanks08:20
czajkowskiyourself?08:20
s-foxSo so, just going through my inbox trying to decide what is important and what is not.08:20
s-foxHave you had a good week so far? It has dragged here.08:21
czajkowskiIt's been pretty busy, I moved house at the weekend so trying to unpack, get ready for uds workwise and now my back is acting up08:21
czajkowskis-fox: hear about the job ?08:21
s-foxczajkowski,  yes, i was offered the job. I spoke with some of the foreign language teachers at the school and they strongly advised I stay away as their experience had been very poor. They are seeing out their contracts and are not interested in renewing it.08:24
s-foxConsequently I turned the offer down and am continuing looking for a new position.08:25
czajkowskinods08:25
czajkowskishame08:25
s-foxWell, it is better I find out about the issues before I sign the contract.08:26
czajkowskiyes this  is true, but you might have gotten on differently. best of luck job hunting08:27
s-foxPerhaps so. Thank you for the wishes.08:28
s-foxSorry to hear about your back08:28
s-foxDid the move go okay? You mentioned it last week(?) i think08:28
czajkowskiyup all set up in the new place08:30
czajkowskistill in London08:30
s-foxWhat is it like living in London? I don't do large cities. LOL08:31
czajkowskiit's great I love it08:31
czajkowskiit's different every 4-5 miles08:32
czajkowskiI don't feel like a tourist living here and it's not that large.08:32
czajkowskiwell it is, it just doesn't feel it tbh08:32
czajkowskiI lived in Dublin for years, ad that feels like being a tourist08:32
s-foxAhh, I see. :)08:34
s-foxI live out in the sticks czajkowski, haha. http://i.imgur.com/ha1lX.jpg08:34
s-foxNice and quiet08:34

jo-erlend«Ubuntu can collect anonymous information that helps developers improve it. All information collected is covered by our privacy policy» <-- That's from the Privacy dialog in System Settings. That's not done by default, is it? And nothing is sent if I don't give my permission? I wish it was a little more explicit.12:13
dholbachno, it's not default - only if you  [x]  it12:19
dholbachit's for http://popcon.ubuntu.com/ ... if you are talking about the software properties dialog12:19
dholbachpopcon sends anonymous data which can be quite useful to developers, ie: package X is outdated and nobody maintains it and has many bugs - can it be removed or do many still have it installed, etc.12:20
jo-erlenddholbach, I'm talking about System Settings > Privacy > Diagnostics.12:38
jo-erlendit's not clear to me what it's actually about.12:40
akgranerjcastro - so I am looking at the release schedule and  adding notes to my calendar  - did the Community team (read that as balloons in this case) what to focus on community testing one of the weeks between Alpha 2 and 3 as well as the week Between Beta 1 and 2 or the weeks between Beta 2 and Final release?12:57
akgranerIf so I'll add those in as well.12:57
AlanBelljcastro: o/ what is this? http://summit.ubuntu.com/uds-q/meeting/20397/community-q-irc-workshops/13:18
dholbachjo-erlend, the link on that dialog leads to http://www.ubuntu.com/aboutus/privacypolicy?crashdb - so I assume it is about sending information about program crashes13:26
nigelbdholbach: All set for your session? :)13:56
dholbachnigelb, I just made a pot of tea, so yes :)13:56
nigelb\o/13:57
dholbachnigelb, can you +v me?13:59
nigelbdholbach: oops, the bot should have +v'd you14:00
nigelbheh, ok, you op'd yourself.14:01
alouriehello14:28
s-foxHello alourie14:29
alouriehi s-fox14:30
s-foxHow are you?14:30
alouriegood actually :-)14:30
alouriehow are you?14:30
s-foxGood show14:30
alourieshow?14:30
s-foxI mean, good :)14:30
alourieright :-)14:30
s-foxI am basking in the glory of having spent 3 hours writing some javascript14:31
s-foxAnd thinking how simple it actually is ;)14:31
alourieah14:31
s-foxalourie,  http://paste.ubuntu.com/964750/14:31
alourieisn't it wonderful to be able to appreciate the code as if it was a poem? :-)14:32
alourieit happens to me lately more often14:33
s-foxI haven't thought about it that much to be honest. I suppose you can appreciate good code14:33
s-fox=)14:33
alouries-fox: can't you?14:34
s-foxalourie,  I think it depends if I have enjoyed writing it or not. Sometimes a problem can give me big headaches14:34
s-fox=)14:34
alourieyes, true14:34
s-foxBut othertimes when you get it right first time and you think "wow, this is awesome"14:34
alouriebut I often enjoy the fact that I'd solved the problem eventually, if it resulted in beautiful code14:35
alourieeven if it took a long time14:35
s-foxWould you be happy if you solved a problem, but the solution was ugly and hacky?14:35
alouriepragmatically happy - maybe14:36
alouriejust that it is solved14:36
alouriebut not "happy" happy :-)14:36
s-foxMaybe you could take it as inspiration and improve it ?14:36
alourieof course14:36
alouriethat's what takes the most of time in my coding mostly14:36
alouriebeautifying working stuff14:36
alouriesimplifying14:36
s-foxCode that can only be maintained by yourself is not good, simplifying code and documenting is very important14:38
alourieexactly14:38
