rick_h_jrwren: haters gonna hate :P15:36
jrwrenTextDown is rather silly IMO... pagedown lets anyone write that. https://code.google.com/p/pagedown/wiki/PageDown15:37
rick_h_yea, the drag/drop and such for the local files is cool though which would be challenging I think iwth a web app15:37
brouschrick_h_: 4 now. 5 in November. 5 in December is our Kindergarten cutoff15:38
rick_h_brousch: ok, looking at my school system they've got kindergarten and then 'early 5's kindergarten'15:38
rick_h_so was wondering if you kid was 5 or 615:39
brouschYeah, each district has different things. Ours just has full day K at that cutoff15:39
rick_h_ugh, my son's Dec 28th birthday means he'll basically be the oldest kid in class15:39

jrwrenyeah, lots of friend have kids in K today.15:41
rick_h_jealous!15:41
shakes808snap-l: That is awesome. I will look for it  :D15:41
jrwrenbrousch: speak for yourself. 2006 was a shit year, where i got drunk for forgot to wear a rubber, which lead to a 2007 year of wtf am I getting myself into.15:41
brouschjrwren: I thought you had like 5 kids15:42
rick_h_lmao, ok didn't see that coming15:42
jrwrenbrousch: lol, no.15:42
jrwrenbrousch: i don't make the same mistake twice.15:42
jrwrenone and only one child.15:42
brouschI wonder how I got that impression15:43
jrwrenmaybe I use her as my excuse to not participate in things often?15:43
brouschI don't know15:45
brouschWoohoo, lunch deposit approved and logged. George will have lunch today15:47
snap-lWe are living in the future.15:47

snap-l(*snicker*)15:48
jrwrenschool lunch?15:49
jrwrenyou are letting your child eat that poison?15:49
brouschYep15:49
brouschI think the website logs what they ate too15:50
jrwrenreally???16:01
jrwrenthat is facinating.16:02
brouschTo be precise, I expect it logs what they chose, not what they ate. They can swap food, throw it away, etc16:04
snap-levery bit of food is RFID encoded16:05
brouschNice, then I can track it as it's pooped out too16:05
greg-gseriously? they track what you eat now?16:12
brouschI think so16:15
brouschAnd the teachers are supposed to update some other website with what they did every day16:16
greg-gwow, sounds annoying for the teachers16:16
greg-gso much for parents having to talk with their kids16:16
greg-goh, and get off my lawn16:16
brouschYeah, seems crazy to me16:17
rick_h_greg-g: heh, more ammunition to catch things early16:18
greg-gthe quantified child16:18
rick_h_I know with my brother he'd be weeks behind in homework not turned in before a warning slip would go out to my aunt16:18
rick_h_I guess I can see both ways, I'm all for more info available and do what you will with it16:18
greg-gas though I should talk, my main job right now is making educational resources more like linked data16:21
greg-gNa·zi [ˈnɑːtsɪ] n. 1. Someone who works on something for free for all to share, but doesn't do as i say. 2. National-Socialist16:22

brouschgreg-g++ "the quantified child" I like that16:40
brouschThe helicopter parents are driving this insanity16:40
greg-gyeppers16:45
snap-lI'd like to thank my generation for fucking things up.16:50
rick_h_hah16:55
jrwreni blame the boomers.16:55
* greg-g nods17:00
greg-gthe boomers did so much wrong with raising their kids17:00
greg-gDr. Spock wasn't right, ya'll. It was a major departure from everything we've been doing until then.17:00
rick_h_I thought letting the schools do the raising was the problem :P17:00
greg-gthat too17:00
greg-g:)17:00
rick_h_sorry, but after playing part time dad to my (now 21yr old) brother and coming up on 3 of my own...if there's a magic book out there let me know because this stuff doesn't seem to be standard issue17:01
jrwrenits the parents that practice attachment parenting's fault17:03
* rick_h_ relates too close to the helicoptoer stuff I guess17:03
jrwren3 of your own???17:03
jrwrenyou have 2?!?!?17:03
jrwrenand a 3rd on way???17:03
rick_h_huh?17:03
rick_h_own kid is coming up on 3yr old :P17:04
jrwrenah.17:04
jrwrenright.17:04
brouschSee, this is how I get the wrong information :P17:04
greg-gheh17:05
jrwreni couldn't help myself greg-g :)17:06
greg-gjrwren: I figured :P17:07
* greg-g is an unashamed AP practitioner17:07
brouschWhat's that?17:08
rick_h_heh, don't know much on that side tbh, but my wife did tell me about an awesome 4yr breast feeding AP experience she ran into that gave me the shudders17:08
brousch"there are no conclusive empirical efficacy studies on Sears attachment parenting."17:09
greg-gnor any other17:11
greg-gbut whatever moving on :)17:11
rick_h_religion, politics, and parenting :)17:11
greg-gyeppers :)17:11
greg-gpersonal choices are personal17:11
rick_h_widox: hey, keyboard report. How's it going?17:12
brouschOh man, I skipped the NMRA show this year and missed this http://www.flickr.com/photos/decojim/17:15
jrwrennow see... i'm anti-AP (not strongly) and yet i'm very pro long term breast feeding.17:15
jrwrenI don't see why cow milk is OK, but human milk is somehow strange or gross.17:16
widoxrick_h_: good. used the blues last week; started using the browns today17:16
rick_h_jrwren: for me it's more the size/teeth and such that causes the shudder17:16
rick_h_jrwren: my son can't tickle gently and the idea of the other thing just has me crossing my arms to protect myself :P17:16
rick_h_widox: cool17:17
widoxrick_h_: wife was not excited about the noise from the blues :)17:18
rick_h_widox: yea, I figured might be the case. If I didn't have my own office I bet I'd have a backup wife-friendly keyboard17:18
brouschHere ya go http://www.michlug.org/17:18
rick_h_brousch: ok, that's awesome17:19
widoxrick_h_: yeah... curious if that new guy will bring in his Filco tomorrow17:19
rick_h_shakes808: make sure your co-workers comes back to CHC with his filco please :)17:19
rick_h_poor guy, comes to one meeting and we're all "bring us your hardware!"17:20
widoxlego people amaze me17:20
snap-lI have a big problem with parents relying on schools for everything for their kids17:39
snap-lAlso, corporal punishment is A+17:39
snap-lNot abuse, but letting the child know who is in charge17:39
brouschI have never had to strike my child. Putting him in the corner is as devastating to him as a waterboarding17:40
snap-lAnd each child is different17:40
brouschBut I suspect he is atypical17:40
snap-lThat's the major thing17:41
jrwreni gave up on corporal punishment, there may be times it works, but it certainly wasn't working.18:05
jrwrenit really does hurt me more than it hurts her.18:05
rick_h_die zope...and stupid OOP based html form generation18:07
brouschHow should forms be generated?18:08
rick_h_via html, maybe a single function that does some template-fu18:09
rick_h_I'm all for creating widgets, but it doesn't need to be this pita18:09
rick_h_and stacked 50 layers deep18:10
brouschIs there a form module that does it that way?18:10
rick_h_well there's a widget library18:12
rick_h_and then widgets are tied into View objects and there's a ton of interaction/setup with it all that just makes it a ton more compliated than it feels like it needs to be18:12
rick_h_but that's zope, why keep it simple when you can bring 10 interfaces to bear on the problem18:13
snap-lzope on a rope18:18

greg-gjrwren: I have to admit, I'm listening to it all and liking it for work background music19:34
rick_h_greg-g: no, I don't like having people in my house without me here19:39
greg-gfair 'nough19:39
brousch"School was great!"20:22
rick_h_awesome!20:24
jrwreni can't wait to go home and hear all about it.20:26
rick_h_sigh, you can't judge by the tools a person uses right?20:27
brouschWrong20:28
brouschJudge all you want based on whatever you want. This is still America!20:29
greg-gbrousch: then how is he wrong if he doesn't?20:33
brouschI am judging him for his non-judgmental attitude20:36
greg-gluckily, judging is non-translative20:38
greg-g(or whatever that mathematical property is)20:38
jrwrentrasitive?20:45
jrwrenjudgy mc judgement pants can go judge a fastest slug contest20:45
jrwreni'll snap my finger while yelling "You don't know me!"20:46
