rick_h_jrwren: lol, no, no aware of evan that I know of.00:12
rick_h_greg-g: you're talking to the wrong guy, I'm not a MW fan :/00:13
jcastrorick_h_: I hate all wikis, MW is the least sucky though00:25
rick_h_jcastro: I've used a few and it's the bottom of my list tbh. But yea, wikis suck as a general rule00:26
jcastrorick_h_: so you saw discourse right?00:33
jcastroatwood's new thing?00:33
jcastrohe's always whined about wikis too, but he chose to fix forums first00:33
rick_h_jcastro: yea, I looked at it briefly but didn't do much with it.00:34
jcastrohahah rick_h_00:48
jcastroI didn't know this00:48

snap-lrick_h_: poing01:17
snap-ljcastro: Discourse looks awesome.01:18
jcastroyeah, it's sweet01:18
jcastrowell, going to be sweet01:18
jcastroeven unfinished it's better than half the junk out there01:18
snap-lYeah, and if there's another option besides phpbb and vbulletin, I'm all for it01:19
snap-lbecause while phpbb and vbulletin are... forums... I'd like something else01:19
snap-land the wordpress forum software is wokny01:19
snap-lwonky01:19
jrwreni just hate forums02:05
jrwreni don't find them usable.02:05
rick_h_meh, they work for what they do.02:14
snap-lIt depends on the forum, honestly03:56
snap-lMornin12:41
rick_h_morning12:57
brouschyes13:04
slestakmmhm13:09
slestakit is a morning =)13:09
snap-lOK, the power went out at the building13:22
snap-lswear to god, one of the folks here called someone else in the building to say "Hey, the power went out"13:23
snap-land rick_h_ can attest that the person who called did not need the phone.13:23
jrwrenjcastro: greg-g: I'm interested in your moinmoin to MW upgrade. we have an ancient moinmoin here which we would like to migrate14:54
jrwrenbut no one is willing to tackle it.14:54
jrwrenwe would probably pay $$$ to either of you in professional services if you care to consult on it.14:54
brouschMoinmoin to mediawiki?14:57
rick_h_brousch: yea15:07
brouschIs there no other Python wiki to switch to?15:08
snap-lWell this is fun15:22
snap-lpower keeps going out at work15:22
rick_h_https://twitter.com/jezdez/status/304609829354340352 and why I hate it when people throw "django has reusable apps" as the big reason to use it15:22
rick_h_snap-l: heh, time to go home and be more productive :)15:22
snap-lrick_h_: I think a strong case could be made. :)15:22
brouschrick_h_: Some of them work, but most don't go through the extra work of making the app general purpose15:23
brouschAt least you can fork them and have someplace to start15:24
snap-lGod, our Copyright system is broken: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metropolis_(film)#Copyright_issues15:38
greg-grick_h_: you guys have set code review days, right?17:51
greg-glike, "today I review code instead of writing it"17:52
rick_h_greg-g: so we used to have a day on launchpad. Not currently18:33
rick_h_greg-g: but yea, to spread things out we each had a given day and our boss was to let that day be kind of a slack/code review day. Not much productivity expected18:33
greg-grick_h_: interesting, quasi 20% time?18:51
rick_h_greg-g: well, since you never knew if you'd have a bunch of reviews of a few it was hard for a manager to plan18:52
greg-gright, good point18:52
rick_h_so plan on no productivity and if a dev had time, try to work on some low priority stuff that would be nice to have (dev tool, testing, etc) that wouldn't matter if it didn't get done until a week later or what not18:52
greg-g"luckily" we have tons of code in our review backlog from the community18:52
rick_h_so not really 20% in that "work on whatever you want..." but "spend the day reviewing and making things better"18:53
* greg-g nods18:53
Blazeixthat new chromebook pixel is shiny20:40
rick_h_pixel is pretty and I'd love to have a high res display, but no way I want to touch it and no way at that price point. Cost as much as the x230 I just got the wife and the plus on the pixel is the screen. Let me spend $200 more on the screen on an x230 please!20:59
rick_h_and usb2? ugh21:00
rick_h_2560 x 1700 though..../me dreams of that on my 21" desktop display...21:00
Blazeix$1299 doesn't seem too bady price-wise21:01
Blazeixs/bady/bad/21:01
rick_h_it's full laptop at that point though. Not second/sub laptop. I can't get people to spend that now on a laptop21:01
Blazeixfor a core i5 / 4Gb ram21:01
Blazeixthat is a full laptop21:02
rick_h_Blazeix: yea, but chromeos21:02
rick_h_I guess if lenovo or dell came out with this and it was meant for me to work on I'd look at it differently21:03
Blazeixtrue21:03
rick_h_I like the idea of the chromeos machines, but as secondary computers21:03
Blazeixthough i'm sure people will have ubuntu running on it in no time21:03
rick_h_and it's about 2x for a seconday imo and I'm one willing to spend $$21:03
rick_h_Blazeix: right, but when I put ubuntu on it I'm going to want to get my 240GB SSD on there21:04
rick_h_but yea, it looks pretty, love the display, boo on touch. 5hrs for that seems just a hair low.21:04
Blazeixi wonder if its ssd is proprietary21:05
Blazeixbut yeah, once you start upgrading it that's a whole can of worms21:05
rick_h_wonder how much LTE you're getting at the higher price piont21:06
rick_h_hmmm, maybe if I used a desktop by day this would make a good laptop for travel/etc21:06
rick_h_I wonder how far the shell stuff on these has come21:06
rick_h_The team, for example, added a third microphone to the device so it not only cancels out background noise, but also the noise you make yourself when you type on the keyboard21:12
rick_h_heh, definitely seems cool21:12
snap-lI'd spend $1500 if I knew someone would have durable Linux installs on it21:21
snap-l$1500 for a Google Terminal is a bit too much21:22
snap-lHell, over $150 is too much, IMHO21:22
snap-lbut that's because I'm cheap21:22
jrwrencan't i just remove chromeos from it and install ubuntu?21:59
* greg-g is in awesome now22:07
jrwrenjcastro: ping22:19
snap-lJust used the words "exceptionally uninterested in whatever marketing solutions you might have" to respond to some schmuck who wanted to put ads on OMC.23:31
