[06:00] <bkerensa> kees: I was trying to go to wiki.corp.google.com but I guess thats on the Intranet? :) because it directed me to this https://login.corp.google.com
[14:52] <nathwill> morning
[15:15] <kees> bkerensa: yeah, that's internal stuffs. whatcha looking for? maybe I can find external alternatives?
[16:07] <bkerensa> kees: I found it... I was watching a Google video class on python and they had some resources in wiki but someone at Canonical found the external copies :D
[16:07] <bkerensa> nathwill: morning
[16:07] <bkerensa> :D
[16:07] <kees> bkerensa: cool
[16:33] <nathwill> you working on learning python, bkerensa?
[16:33] <nathwill> me too!
[16:37] <bkerensa> nathwill: well... just resuming my studies now that I am finding some breaks to do so
[16:37] <bkerensa> :D
[16:37] <bkerensa> but yeah
[16:38] <bkerensa> after I get python down... It will be time for GO :)
[16:38] <nathwill> started reading the python3 docs, as that seems to be where things are headed
[16:38] <bkerensa> nathwill: Can you tell me where the package is? http://www.tnt.com/webtracker/tracking.do?navigation=1&cons=843248128
[16:38] <bkerensa> :D
[16:39] <nathwill> bkerensa: in transit between LA and it's destination
[16:41] <bkerensa> nathwill: very vague :P I dont much like that it doesnt show each city
[16:42] <nathwill> USA Others!
[16:42] <nathwill> hilarious
[16:42] <bkerensa> nathwill: yeah =/ at least it didnt get held in customs
[16:43] <bkerensa> nathwill: big plans for the fourth?
[16:57] <bkerensa> izdubar: hi
[17:03] <nathwill> bkerensa: nope... the wife had to work, so i volunteered to cover my org for the day
[17:04] <bkerensa> nathwill: huh
[17:04] <bkerensa> nathwill: btw what is Yahoo Pipes?
[17:04] <nathwill> but i'll get friday off as recompense
[17:04] <nathwill> bkerensa, srsly?
[17:04] <nathwill> yahoo pipes is the shit
[17:04] <bkerensa> it keeps pinging my site
[17:04] <bkerensa> =/
[17:04] <nathwill> :)
[17:04] <bkerensa> you set this up?
[17:04] <nathwill> someone probably has a pipe that has your site feed in it
[17:04] <nathwill> or possible scraper
[17:05] <nathwill> no, i don't think i did...
[17:05] <nathwill> though it's possible
[17:05] <bkerensa> huh
[17:05] <bkerensa> what so its a Yahoo branded web scraper?
[17:05] <nathwill> i screw around w/ pipes a fair amount, frequently using my news subscriptions as a data-source
[17:05] <nathwill> no
[17:05] <nathwill> that's Slurp
[17:05] <bkerensa> lol
[17:05] <nathwill> pipes is a product
[17:05] <nathwill> you should check it out
[17:05] <nathwill> it's unix pipes for web services, i guess is best way to explain it
[17:06] <nathwill> it's really kick ass
[17:06] <nathwill> let's you do pretty neat mashups from various data-sources.. generate a single, standardized data feed that you can use, using all kinds of different inputs
[17:07] <nathwill> bkerensa: http://pipes.yahoo.com/
[17:08] <bkerensa> weird
[17:09] <nathwill> awesome
[17:10] <nathwill> so... think about wanting to build a "linux-news" feed for your site...
[17:10] <tgm4883> historically, i believe yahoo has had a lot of decent online products
[17:11] <nathwill> rather than hooking in a dozen different sources, you can create a pipe to aggregate X number sources in X number formats, deduplicate them, and give you a standardized output in the format of your choice (xml,json...)
[17:11] <nathwill> YQL is also a bad-ass product
[17:11] <bkerensa> huh
[17:12] <bkerensa> tgm4883: I like some Yahoo products.... but ultimately Yahoo's culture is not able to keep up with society
[17:12] <bkerensa> Google gets it
[17:12] <bkerensa> Facebook does too
[17:12] <nathwill> http://developer.yahoo.com/yql/
[17:12] <bkerensa> When is the last time I saw Yahoo at a Open Source or major tech event? Never in the last decade
[17:13] <nathwill> bkerensa: you can say that all you like, but y! is number one in mail, news, sports...
[17:13] <izdubar> bkerensa, hello
[17:13] <nathwill> i'd hardly call that irrelevant
[17:13] <bkerensa> Yahoo owns Zillow?
[17:13] <bkerensa> that rocks
[17:14] <bkerensa> nathwill: y! mail is the #1 mail client because yahoo was dominate for so many years and people fail at knowing how to create a new acct... as a product I think ymail is hands down inferior to Gmail.
[17:14] <bkerensa> not that Gmail is too special itself
[17:14] <bkerensa> mail is mail... but yahoo has the highest rate of spam mail
[17:15] <bkerensa> I could go into my ymail and nuke my inbox and in a week I will have 1000 new messages
[17:15] <bkerensa> :D
[17:15] <nathwill> so... if you don't use the mail... it won't learn your preferences...
[17:16] <nathwill> check this out: http://visualize.yahoo.com/mail/
[17:17] <bkerensa> interesting
[17:17] <nathwill> way too fun to look at
[17:18] <bkerensa> I love it... one of the biggest trending words on that was "VIAGRA"
[17:18] <bkerensa> >.<
[17:18] <nathwill> the trending keywords are wild
[17:18] <nathwill> i'm assuming you were looking at the spam ones
[17:18] <bkerensa> Im sorry... VIGRA which has produced 365 spam emails in the last 20 seconds
[17:18] <bkerensa> :D
[17:18] <bkerensa> yeah
[17:19] <nathwill> :)
[17:20] <nathwill> also, reading this article, i don't see that y! owns zillow, it's just talking about a partnership to provide property listings data for y! homes
[17:25] <bkerensa> nathwill: Yahoo!-Zillow Real Estate Network
[17:25] <bkerensa> bottom of site
[17:25] <bkerensa> :D
[17:26] <nathwill> what site
[17:26] <nathwill> oh, i see it
[17:26] <nathwill> iiinteresting...
[17:26] <nathwill> http://www.nasdaq.com/article/zillow-and-yahoo-expand-relationship-zillow-now-exclusive-provider-of-rental-listings-to-yahoo-h-20120703-00425
[17:26] <orebuntu> nathwill's tiny URL is http://tinyurl.com/7jbd5rc
[17:27] <bkerensa> nathwill: :D my fiancees work is going to start using Zipcar I guess
[17:27] <bkerensa> :D
[17:27] <nathwill> bkerensa, it's a partnership
[17:27] <bkerensa> nathwill: ah
[17:27] <nathwill> as the TLDR on that article
[17:27] <nathwill> though apparently quite an old partnership, as it dates to 2006
[17:28] <nathwill> y!-zillow network was 2011
[17:28] <nathwill> anyways... that's cool about zipcar
[17:28] <nathwill> NPR had a thing on going carless the other day
[17:30] <bkerensa> nathwill: yeah I'm not sure whats up with it apparently her company is going to start a test trial with her.... since we are defiant on getting a vehicle and they know we use zipcar
[17:30] <bkerensa> :D
[17:30] <bkerensa> so her VP asked yesterday if they can start doing trials
[17:31] <bkerensa> and Zipcar sent me a free year membership card :D
[17:33] <nathwill> sweet deal
[17:35] <bkerensa> nathwill: so O'Reilly is giving me a deadline to get someone on our booth list
[17:35] <bkerensa> Im going to add you
[17:35] <bkerensa> =/
[17:35] <bkerensa> I have no other prospects
[17:40] <nathwill> ok
[17:40] <nathwill> dude... thunderbird just turned into a defunct process
[17:40] <nathwill> bizarre
[17:40] <bkerensa> lol
[18:21] <nathwill> ha, had to nuke the parent process (gnome-shell) to kill it
[18:21] <nathwill> that sucks
[19:20] <bkerensa> sucks... Vidalia is broken... requires sudo in order for it to work properly which has not been the case for the last couple releases of Ubuntu
[19:20] <bkerensa> =/
[19:25] <thefinn93> try the tor browser bundle
[19:26] <bkerensa> thefinn93: thats trash
[19:26] <bkerensa> :P
[19:26] <thefinn93> oh?
[19:26] <bkerensa> it uses an outdated version of FF
[19:27] <thefinn93> making it trash?
[19:27] <thefinn93> it works well
[19:35] <bkerensa> thefinn93: until Flash EOL when FF wont have support for it? :P
[19:36] <thefinn93> you shouldn't run flash over tor anyway, it doesnt respect the proxy and reveals your real IP
[19:37] <bkerensa> thefinn93: when you gonna hang
[19:37] <thefinn93> not sure, trying to see what I can pull off for OSCON
[19:38] <thefinn93> might end up just coming down Thursday/Friday
[19:38] <bkerensa> thefinn93: yeah I just sent the reg in today... its gonna be me... nathwill and phillapballew
[19:38] <thefinn93> cool
[19:49] <MarkDude> How about asking Daniel?
[19:50] <MarkDude> He has some good knowledge, and should be able to help there
[19:52] <bkerensa> MarkDude: who?
[19:52] <bkerensa> MarkDude: We only have two passes
[19:53] <bkerensa> Phillip is justa floater
[19:53] <bkerensa> just a*
[20:06] <tgm4883> bkerensa, ping
[20:07] <bkerensa> tgm4883: pong
[20:07] <tgm4883> pm?
[20:10] <MarkDude> What about using the free code
[20:10] <MarkDude> and getting a few people extra
[20:11] <MarkDude> Even having a person help for 3 hours would be good- if you had a few extra folks
[20:11]  * MarkDude will ask Daniel to help, and make sure he uses freeorg code
[20:12] <MarkDude> and him helping can be considered extra help,
[20:12] <MarkDude> Because MarkDude is concerned that bkerensa will be stuck at booth the whole time- and not be able to do the networking thing at the time,
[20:13] <MarkDude> Having him able to go make connections and such is a *really* important thing, IMHO
[20:15] <MarkDude> If volunteers are able to spend time at other booths and outside during then - thats good
[20:16]  * MarkDude has heard that other projects are taking their 2 badges, and swapping them when folks leave the floor
[20:17] <bkerensa> MarkDude: Thats not allowed.... They sent out a e-mail saying that from the get go
[20:17] <bkerensa> No swapping of exhibitor passes and expo passes cannot be used for exhibiting
[20:18] <MarkDude> So they check ids?
[20:18] <bkerensa> MarkDude: I'll have plenty of people up here
[20:18] <MarkDude> Oh ok
[20:19] <bkerensa> MarkDude: no they dont check ID's but if a guy with a tag saying Emily Smith comes up what do you think security is gonna say?
[20:19] <MarkDude> Its Emily's business if she has stuble
[20:19] <MarkDude> Or a Linux Beard
[20:19] <MarkDude> They make like not much for working the doors
[20:20] <MarkDude> Cant you just pay for more expo passes?
[20:20] <bkerensa> ?
[20:20] <bkerensa> Expo Passes are for Expo Attendees
[20:20] <MarkDude> To work the booth
[20:21] <bkerensa> not for Exhibitors
[20:21] <bkerensa> and nope
[20:21] <bkerensa> 2 max
[20:21]  * MarkDude plans on wearing Nixie Pixels badge
[20:21] <bkerensa> heh
[20:21] <MarkDude> And hopes he is hard timed for it
[20:21] <bkerensa> have fun with that
[20:21]  * MarkDude will
[20:27] <MarkDude> valorie gonna be there?
[20:28] <MarkDude> https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10150269305683805&set=a.10150269305618805.349148.717333804&type=1&theater Epic OSCON pic is EPIC
[20:28] <orebuntu> MarkDude's tiny URL is http://tinyurl.com/75kf8hm
[20:31] <bkerensa> MarkDude: I dont think so
[20:31] <MarkDude> Damn
[20:32] <MarkDude> She is awesome
[20:32] <bkerensa> MarkDude: at CLS she said maybe
[20:32] <bkerensa> but she will be in Europe for some KDE stuff
[20:33] <MarkDude> Linux Gma- kickin' ass worldwide :)
[20:34] <bkerensa> =/
[20:34] <bkerensa> ahh I hate when I get that call
[20:34]  * bkerensa has to run out to SW and do a call
[20:37] <MarkDude> laters
[21:22] <nathwill> bkerensa, so what days do we need the booth manned?
[21:22] <nathwill> if we're that short, i've got some vacation coming, and can probably push da boss to get some time off
[21:41] <MarkDude> Wed and Thur are expo days
[21:46] <nathwill> oh, well that's easy, i just need to get the wednesday off then
[21:46]  * nathwill yawns and dreams of soft pillows
[23:39] <blkperl> bkerensa: is the server ready?
[23:39] <blkperl> ill poke someone to email you
