Blazeix cool, jquery 2.0 (in 2013) will drop IE 6/7/8 support00:23
rick_h_http://press.oreilly.com/pub/pr/2931 very cool00:54
rick_h_and now http://post.oreilly.com/form/oreillynotifications/viewhtml/9z1z5mubn237ojq19na1i2pj5hqsgki8rq0k3hvcbbo?imm_mid=08d215&cmp=em-npa-mailings-drop-box-release-june201200:55
greg-gwhoa, nice01:00
rick_h_http://teespring.com/pycoders01:14
rick_h_man, poor mozilla is feeling a bit like they've missed a chance01:41
widoxrick_h_: heh, hope that order doesn't take as long as the vim t-shirt did01:43
widoxthat's pretty awesome, sync your books over to dropbox01:43
rick_h_widox: heh yea, but gotta support the Python folks01:43
rick_h_yea, I like that oreilly has done that. I know I get emails and redownload my book, then resync to my kindle01:45
rick_h_kinda cool if updates and such just appear on my machine via dropbox01:45
rick_h_and now it's on my phone, soon to have tablet, etc01:45
widoxrick_h_: you bought a tablet?01:46
widoxwhich one01:46
rick_h_yea, suckered into that nexus 701:46
widox:D01:46
rick_h_price, new os got me01:46
rick_h_and my desire to tinker with bookie on mobile01:46
widoxthe specs sounds pretty great for it01:46
rick_h_yea, engadget raved on it basically01:47
rick_h_seems they're selling at cost/right at in order to sell and get people getting stuff from Play01:47
rick_h_and devs handle them, start doing more mobile stuff01:47
widoxI've been kicking around the idea of getting one01:48
rick_h_yea, with derekv doing android stuff with bookie and I want to do some UI updates that'll be two pane, list on left readable on the right01:48
rick_h_so this one finally kicked me off the fence01:48
widoxcool01:49
rick_h_tip of the day: try out ctrl-o in the chrome dev tools02:09
widoxrick_h_: slick!02:19
rick_h_yea, missed that was there02:20
rick_h_http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mk-tFn2Ix6g&feature=youtu.be02:20
snap-lYeah, 've used their Dropbox syncing02:35
rick_h_pragmatic had it back at last year it looks like02:37
rick_h_and oreilly just added it as well02:37
snap-lYeah, couple weeks back02:37
rick_h_I need to just stop buying things form amazon when it's on oreilly02:37
rick_h_they really have done a good job with that02:37
snap-lYes02:37
snap-lyes yes yes02:37
snap-lAmazon for the stupid publishers, and the smart publisher sites for the smart ones02:38
snap-l(Penguin Books, Harper Collins)02:38
rick_h_morning11:51
rick_h_ugh, tgif11:51
rick_h_and wooo! cooler weather! only 95 today11:52
rick_h_geeze, Blazeix the HN comment crowd are cranky over this IE support dropping in jquery 211:53
brouschEh? What?11:54
rick_h_http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=417455011:55
brouschWow11:55
brouschDropping IE8 is bad11:55
rick_h_it's years from now11:56
brouschWindows XP can only have IE811:56
rick_h_right, and XP is damn near what? 10-11 years old11:56
brouschIt is supported until 201411:56
rick_h_right when this change goes into effect11:56
rick_h_the 1.9 will be supported until 2014/1511:57
brouschHm11:57
brouschXP will live forever11:57
rick_h_enjoy broken things then11:58
rick_h_I can't go pull out OS9 and expect to have safari on it11:58
rick_h_the party has to end sometime, thank goodness it's starting11:59
brouschIt does sound reasonable, but I think the announcement long before the EOL is confusing. I mean, who reads the article?11:59
rick_h_lol11:59
rick_h_well I think they feel that they have to be very public and let everyone get their crap together11:59
rick_h_"this is the plan...this will effect you...you will have to work along side us on this or else your stuff will be broken in IE<8 in a couple of years12:00
brouschWhat kind of web technoogy plans years ahead?12:01
brouschCrazy-talk12:01
rick_h_jquery, the windows of the web world...and they want to put their XP out to pasture as well and get to 2.012:02
shakes808mroning12:06
shakes808morning12:06
rick_h_https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5931rOHdUVA&feature=player_embedded lol12:07
brouschrick_h_: Are you and snap-l staying at the Blackwell again for PyOhio?12:19
shakes808http://shirt.woot.com/12:23
rick_h_brousch: yea, I need to call on that12:23
brouschThere will be 5 or 6 of us from GRPUG, but we're staying at the Red Roof Inn again12:24
Blazeixeh, just use conditional comments to target older versions of IE12:30
rick_h_yea, the comments go nuts on that as 'ugly' and 'no conditional comments in ie10' and more work, etc12:33
rick_h_I'm meh, but a quick run through the comments suprised me on how much people are against the move12:33
brouschThey will probably end up with a separate package to support really old browser12:38
rick_h_fork it! fork it!12:39
brouschfork you!12:41
brouschhttp://rss.slashdot.org/~r/Slashdot/slashdot/~3/ZhoXzDMziGQ/adobe-stops-flash-player-support-for-android12:47
brouschAs much as I hate flash, it was one of the things Android had that iOS didn't12:48
brouschAnd with Chrome on iOS, Android no longer has that as an advantage either12:48
rick_h_heh yea, but all the iOS peeps are finding the issues with it12:53
rick_h_"oh, you don't get access to the nitro JS engine, only apple gets that so JS is slower"12:54
rick_h_"oh, you can't change iOS to open links in Chrome, so you still end up in safari all day"12:54
brouschheh12:56
brouschHm, it seems strange that I have to write my own script to easily install pip for python3.214:09
brouschAm I missing something, or do I need to manually get and install Distribute, then get and install Pip?14:09
jrwrenrick_h_: your next yrs goals should be to convince folks to discontinue the products and move to git and github.14:40
jrwren... or... compete with git and github head on. competition is good.14:41
rick_h_jrwren: :P14:41
brouschA launchpad -> github migration tool14:53
rick_h_yep, just let me know when github suports bugs against packages in different distributions/versions, upstream bug tracking, package building14:54
brouschSee, there's still work for you to do even if you do migrate ;)14:56
snap-lHowdy16:37
rick_h_party16:37
snap-lWas head-down geting some automation working16:37
rick_h_now that it's automated time to go home for friday?16:38
snap-lNothing more nerve-wracking than a silently-running process.16:38
rick_h_heh, you're speaking my day16:38
rick_h_INSERT 0 116:38
snap-ldid it finish? Did it bomb? Did it order 1 million mojitos?16:38
rick_h_"you still goin?!"16:38
greg-gsnap-l: so you just inserted a whole bunch of println's, right?16:40
greg-g"I'm getting ready to call THIS function"16:41
greg-g"I just excited THIS function"16:41
greg-gexcited? exited.16:41
snap-l;)16:45
snap-lThere's debug logging, but it's still nervous-making16:45
rick_h_"ah crap, that comma is out of place" ...starts the run again16:49
snap-lrick_h_: Ugh16:50
snap-lgreg-g: Did you see my pastebin re that band that wanted to be played on OMC?16:51
snap-lUnfortunately I don't think anything came of it yet.16:51
snap-lhttp://paste.mitechie.com/raw/ZGm64vbGFP9GmT85R2U4/ <- last mail I sentt to them16:52
snap-lDippy network just blipped16:57
snap-lAnd now to hide in the land of AC17:25
snap-laka the bedroom17:25
snap-lMan, my network is really flaky today18:06
brouschThis Botbrew Python on android thing has turned into quite the hackfest18:08
brouschThe current pip is broken on certain systems, so I have to install the development pip into the system and into each virtualenv18:08
rick_h_brousch: but at least there's an updated pip to get I guess18:11
brouschBut, the upside is that I can create virtualenvs on Android18:11
rick_h_very cool18:11
rick_h_I look forward to seeing how far you get with it come next month18:11
brouschYeah, it looks like my forked virtualenv is not longer needed, which is nice18:11
brouschWell at this point you should be able to develop in a virtualenv on Android using any pure python module and any module that is in the embedian repo, which is a smaller, ARM-based version of the debian repo18:13
brouschSorry, emdebian repo18:14
brouschhttp://www.emdebian.org/grip/index.html18:15
brouschYou do need a rooted phone to run BotBrew Basil, and an ext2 partition on your SD card to hold the virtualenvs18:21
brouschI definitely need to blog this before I forget it all18:28
rick_h_definitely, wiki/readme docs setup18:29
brouschAnd biggidy-bam django running on Android in a virtualenv18:43
_stink_crayzay18:46
greg-gwhy not? constant 3g connection (for various definitions of "constant") and more power than many webservers 10 years ago, why not run your homepage off your phone?18:49
jrwrentoo easy to dos18:50
greg-g:)18:50
brouschgreg-g: You can't connect to it over 3g18:52
brouschAll of the mobile phone services firewall incoming connections18:52
greg-goh, right18:58
greg-gwell then, screw that18:58
greg-g;)18:58
greg-gthere was some talk I watch a little bit off that talked about this, I forget who/where but I'm sure it's been talked about a lot. I think he mentioned that, but I apparently forgot18:58
brouschMy goal is to be able to develop regular Python programs on Android, with all of the niceties like virtualenv19:00
jrwrenbut maybe you'll get ipv6 in the future :)19:28
brouschIt is perfectly understandable. Image everyone's phone exposed to the unfiltered Internet19:29
brouschImagine19:29
greg-gImagine all the people... living life in peace whoo ooo ooo uuuu19:32
snap-lYeah I don't think we're ready for phones to be on the unfiltered internet19:34
brouschI don't put anything except a firewall on the unfiltered internet19:35
greg-gI already put Rowan on the unfiltered internet, he brought down half of the west coast19:35
brouschImpressive19:36
greg-gGoogle sent him a recruiter email19:36
greg-g(actually, I got a Google recruiter email for my python experience, hahahahaha)19:36
greg-g(I think it is because I'm listed as a dev for Gwibber, which was really all of like 30 lines of code)19:38
snap-lgreg-g: THat's more than I've contributed to Gwibber. ;)19:40
greg-gmost of mine was even copy/paste edit the few lines that need to change19:40
snap-lhttps://code.launchpad.net/~craig-decafbad/gwibber/https-support19:42
snap-l(it was rejected)19:43
jrwrenmy linux box is on unfiltered internet right now, with no firewall.19:50
jrwreniptables is empty.19:50
jrwrenam I crazy?19:50
greg-gbut it also isn't listening on many ports19:51
brouschAny other east siders going to PyOhio?19:58
greg-g(I don't really get the unfiltered internet scare)19:59
brouschThat's because you don't run Windows20:01
snap-lbrousch: Probably, but not sure who20:02
snap-ljrwren: No, you worked in academia for too long. ;)20:02
snap-lgreg-g: The filtered internet is to ensure that you haven't left something open unintentionally20:03
snap-lie: If I lock my gate, the liklihood of someone enterint my house through an opened window in the back yard is reduced20:04
snap-l(facing the back yard)20:04
greg-gbah :)20:04
snap-lbad analogy20:04
snap-lbut you get the point20:04
jrwreni made sure to turn off mysql.20:10
jrwrenit is listening on a lot.20:10
jrwrencomcast filters the samba ports for me20:11
greg-gheh "for me"20:14
snap-lMy router is my firewall20:19
snap-lchecked it with Shields Up!20:19
greg-glol "Without your knowledge or explicit permission, the Windows networking technology which connects your computer to the Internet may be offering some or all of your computer's data to the entire world at this very moment!"20:21
greg-gI'm going to say no20:21
snap-lgreg-g: There's some old info on that page20:22
jrwrenzomg, all kinds of scary ports.20:22
jrwrenlook at this scary stuff: https://gist.github.com/302042720:23
greg-gapparently I'm stealth for 0-1055 ports20:24
snap-lI have 22 open, but I know about that.20:24
brouschI always move ssh to some other port, usually 22<natted IP>20:27
snap-lI turned off password login, so if you don't have a key, you're not getting in20:27
* greg-g nods20:27
snap-lif I get paranoid, I'll have ssh into a DMZ.20:27
jrwreni'm singing dixie chicks about my open ports.20:31
jrwren"wide open spaces"20:31
greg-glol20:32
snap-ljrwren: Well, when you get owned, you'll at least know how. ;)20:43
snap-lGod, Skype is a real POS>20:44
brouschIt used to be awesome, then MS bought it20:44
snap-lIt installs 100s of 386 libraries20:45
jrwreni'll probably firewall some ports.20:45
jrwrenhttps://gist.github.com/2929272  some real gems in here21:25
greg-gwait, when did audible get bought by amazon?22:30
greg-gor was it always?22:30
rick_h_greg-g: 3yrs ago maybe?23:06
rick_h_greg-g: ok, so 4yrs http://www.zdnet.com/blog/btl/amazoncom-buys-audible-march-into-digital-content-distribution-continues/781823:06
greg-ghuh, interesting23:07
greg-gI was wondering why I got emails from amazon pointing me to audible :)23:07
rick_h_bah apple http://goo.gl/b38DA23:25
rick_h_ugh23:25
derekvcorrrrperations23:25
greg-gwhat the fucking fuckity fuck fuck fuck23:26
greg-gstupid ass software patents23:26
rick_h_yea, evidently you can patent looking up data in two places23:26
greg-gthat one got me23:27
rick_h_Reuters reports that the decision appears to have been driven by Apple's claim to the patent to search multiple sources, which Apple says is the basis of Siri.23:27
greg-ghilarious23:27
rick_h_new rule, you can patent something in tech for 12mo /18mo max23:27
greg-g"no shit"23:27
rick_h_after that, fair game23:27
rick_h_so what's funny is that it isn't against the nexus 7 because it's a tablet device and hte tablet doesn't have siri yet23:28
rick_h_but guess that's coming on ios6, so they better ship my tablet before ios6 comes out23:29
brouschgeez23:29
brouschYou know, I think I might use Evernote for my ebooks instead of Dropbox. In Evernote the whole thing is indexed and searchable23:30
brouschrick_h_: Did you order a Nexus 7?23:30
rick_h_yea23:30
brouschNo more Kindle?23:30
rick_h_I'll read on the kindle23:30
rick_h_I want the tablet for other stuff and to tinker with mobile dev on it23:30
rick_h_thinking stuff like watching these youtube google io talks, irc/email and such in post-work hours23:31
brouschI love hacking the crap out of my Nook Color23:31
rick_h_but mainly my dev itch to play with web dev on different mobile form factors and maybe eventually get off my @#$#@ and try out some android stuff23:31
rick_h_yea, why I like this, it's a nexus, all the reviews raving on the hardware, and price point is low enough that if I end up not really digging it, I can sell it without much loss I'd bet23:32
brouschYeah, low cost is nice, and 7" is the perfect size23:33
derekvnew rule, patent enforcement must show that a method was stolen or copied, not mearly mimicked, emulated or independently conceived23:33
brouschNew rule: all judges must be able to program23:35
derekva plausible theory of irreparable harm long-term loss of market share and losses of downstream sales will now be put forward by apple against all other existing corporations23:38
derekvjust think of the billions of dollars apple losses due to the fact that other organizations exist.23:39
rick_h_anyone using firefox for android? I can't seem to find a way for the sync to let me pull up tabs off my desktop browser23:48
derekvi use it sometimes but i've never hooked it up to syn23:49
derekvi should23:49
derekvI guess23:49
derekvmy phone feels really slow23:49
brouschi haven't tried tab sync23:49
rick_h_it doesn't seem to do it from what i can tell23:50
brouschTrying it now. Activating sync23:51
rick_h_let me know if you get it to do it23:52
brouschI can see desktop tabs on my phone23:57
rick_h_where at?23:57
brouschWay down at the bottom, tiny link23:58
brousch"Show all tabs"23:58
rick_h_hmm, is that firefox for firefox beta?23:59
