| jcastro | rick_h_4: hey, offhand, which lp team is working on maas? | 01:17 |
|---|---|---|
| rick_h_ | jcastro: red I believe but they're trying to get off of it and move on I think | 10:36 |
| dzho | good morning, all my fine nerdsibs | 11:58 |
| snap-l | Morning | 12:31 |
| rick_h_ | morn | 13:05 |
| snap-l | Hnging out at the doctor's office with JoDee and her dad | 14:16 |
| brousch | Sounds like fun | 14:16 |
| snap-l | totally | 14:17 |
| snap-l | apparently the VPN doesn't work over my phone | 14:17 |
| rick_h_ | doh | 14:17 |
| snap-l | Yeah, though ssh to my machine seems to be working OK | 14:18 |
| rick_h_ | on ssh to rule them all | 14:21 |
| snap-l | Using X windows to run rdesktop on my home machine | 14:23 |
| snap-l | I swear, ifer take that away, I'll ragequit. ;) | 14:23 |
| snap-l | s/ifer/if they ever/ | 14:24 |
| rick_h_ | bah, no X required :P | 14:25 |
| snap-l | SHow me something else that can do what X does wihtout pre-thinking it, and I'll switch. :) | 14:27 |
| snap-l | You'll takem my ssh -X from my cold dead fingers. | 14:27 |
| rick_h_ | http://pycon.timvideos.us/ | 14:28 |
| snap-l | Also, this fucking flash intro at work needs to die in a fire | 14:28 |
| snap-l | I'm wasting bandwidth just to display our outdated mission statement | 14:29 |
| rick_h_ | hah, well good luck with that | 14:29 |
| snap-l | *rolls eyes* | 14:29 |
| snap-l | If it didn't have this dippy animation | 14:30 |
| rick_h_ | ummm no comment http://r.bmark.us/u/13fc0473487827 | 14:41 |
| snap-l | Y'know... ;) | 14:46 |
| snap-l | Why do people call Shuttleworth Shuttlecock? | 14:46 |
| rick_h_ | because everyone likes a little ... nope...didn't go there | 14:47 |
| snap-l | badminton? | 14:47 |
| snap-l | Seriously, there's some lady here who chose to sit right next to me and talk | 15:08 |
| snap-l | Thank Christ her ride showed up | 15:11 |
| rick_h_ | lol | 15:11 |
| snap-l | Love explaining that I'm at work. | 15:11 |
| rick_h_ | headphones ftw | 15:11 |
| snap-l | "What would you do without all that?" | 15:11 |
| snap-l | "I'd be in an office" | 15:11 |
| rick_h_ | big giant open ear'd over the head headphones | 15:11 |
| snap-l | ergo STFU | 15:11 |
| greg-g | made my first comment in gerrit.wikimedia.org ! | 16:27 |
| brousch | I DON'T CARE IF YOUR HUSBAND IS IN THE ICU, LADY. I'M TRYING TO DEBUG THIS CODE! | 16:29 |
| brousch | Ug. converting between metric and architectural length units is the biggest PITA on this whole project so far | 16:36 |
| greg-g | wait, there's "architectural units" now? not just metric and stupid, er, "english"? | 16:42 |
| brousch | Well it's imperial in a specific format | 16:57 |
| brousch | 3' 2-7/8" | 16:58 |
| brousch | Like that | 16:58 |
| brousch | The draftsmen need that format, the software needs mm | 16:58 |
| greg-g | don't crash your building on the surface of mars | 16:58 |
| rick_h_ | snap-l: Blazeix remind me to bring this up to the new people at CHC if they're back next week. http://trizpug.org/boot-camp/pyohio13 | 16:59 |
| snap-l | Got my System 76 stickers. | 17:34 |
| rick_h_ | awesome | 17:34 |
| snap-l | brousch: More like she was saying she had a clean bill of health, and she was waiting for her ride, and oh, that's a fancy setup you have there. People all over with their noses in their laptops and cellphones and... | 17:35 |
| snap-l | "Oh, you can work with that? Well we should just get you a desk and..." | 17:36 |
| snap-l | Dear lady, please don't make me kill you in your sleep | 17:38 |
| snap-l | hugs and kisses, me | 17:38 |
| rick_h_ | hah, "please learn perl before it dies..." http://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/1aczh1/perl_the_language_everybody_wants_to_declare_dead/ | 17:42 |
| rick_h_ | is how it reads more than "look I'm not dead yet" | 17:43 |
| snap-l | Big fan of Perl but frankly I'd rather not deal with it anymore | 17:45 |
| snap-l | yes, I said it | 17:45 |
| snap-l | Python has spoiled me | 17:45 |
| snap-l | And any benefit Perl 6 or 5.10+ might have is immaterial when I can do "pip install (current thought)" and keep moving | 17:46 |
| snap-l | What the... linuxadvocates? | 17:47 |
| snap-l | APparently comp.os.linux.advocacy escaped and is now wild on the web | 17:48 |
| snap-l | I <3 his example btw. | 17:49 |
| snap-l | $ perl -pi -e “tr/[a-z]/[A-Z]/” sample.txt | 17:49 |
| snap-l | as opposed to "string".upper() | 17:50 |
| rick_h_ | :) | 17:57 |
| brousch | My friend works at Booking.com (priceline) and he says they're hiring a dozen perl developers | 18:17 |
| brousch | In the netherlands | 18:17 |
| snap-l | That's nice | 18:19 |
| snap-l | sf.net uses Perl for their sysadmin | 18:19 |
| snap-l | I'm not saying it isn't used anymore, I'm saying I'd rather be using Python. :) | 18:20 |
| rick_h_ | :( the sadness continues http://r.bmark.us/u/6e404a5316179d | 18:20 |
| snap-l | Give me a fucking break | 18:20 |
| snap-l | Not only has work begun to offer the community alternatives to Reader specifically (save us Digg!), work is being done on the other pieces of the RSS infrastructure, as well. | 18:21 |
| rick_h_ | if rss dies I'm going to be very sad...and the new gopher of the internet | 18:21 |
| snap-l | Save us Digg? Seriously? | 18:21 |
| snap-l | That's like asking a lead weight to take you to the surface | 18:21 |
| brousch | Damn, I didn't know about that | 18:22 |
| snap-l | I still have it | 18:22 |
| snap-l | The RSS extension | 18:23 |
| rick_h_ | yea, but try to find it in the store | 18:23 |
| snap-l | Yeah, lovely | 18:23 |
| rick_h_ | it's a small thing, but sad still | 18:23 |
| snap-l | Hoping it's clerical error, and not a sign of things to come | 18:23 |
| snap-l | though frankly that extension is janky | 18:24 |
| brousch | Is anyone setting up an instance of newsblur? | 18:24 |
| brousch | I might give a go if I can find time this weekend | 18:24 |
| rick_h_ | no, if I did anythign I'll to feedhq and start hacking on it | 18:24 |
| rick_h_ | /to/do | 18:25 |
| brousch | But djangoooooooooooooooooooooooooo | 18:25 |
| rick_h_ | feedhq is django :P | 18:26 |
| brousch | So how is it better than newsblur? | 18:26 |
| rick_h_ | and while not pretty the UI hasn't been hit with a 'let's just add one more stupid flashing control/button" yet | 18:26 |
| rick_h_ | /yet/stick | 18:26 |
| brousch | Looks weird | 18:27 |
| rick_h_ | man all of these are just horrid UX-wise. makes me cry | 18:27 |
| brousch | The font or size of the page is annoying | 18:27 |
| rick_h_ | on which one? or both of them? | 18:28 |
| brousch | feedhq | 18:28 |
| rick_h_ | yea, it needs love as well. At least though it's less busy/crazy to start with | 18:28 |
| brousch | Does it have an Android client? | 18:29 |
| rick_h_ | it's WEB | 18:29 |
| rick_h_ | forget stupid phone clients. Just use a decent webui...if one of them could fix their UX | 18:29 |
| * rick_h_ won't start writing an app...will not... | 18:29 | |
| brousch | I can see you writing phonegap apps | 18:30 |
| rick_h_ | no no no no...it'd be http://nonsuckyrss.com | 18:30 |
| rick_h_ | be responsive, and it's be swipe/touch friendly for mobile peeps | 18:30 |
| rick_h_ | without so damn many buttons on them | 18:30 |
| brousch | heh | 18:30 |
| brousch | I still think it could be hacked on to bookie, maybe even just using the api | 18:31 |
| rick_h_ | heh, trust me. I've thought about it. And if I did write something I'd end up sharing web ui components between them for sure | 18:31 |
| rick_h_ | but it doesn't fit the bookie backend very well at all | 18:32 |
| brousch | Scrape feeds, add them all to my bookie with an unread tag. Pull out the unreads, read them with breadable, remove unread tag (and delete) | 18:32 |
| rick_h_ | and here you definitely want to share feed data. with bookmarks, and logins, your page might look different than my bookmark'ed page | 18:32 |
| rick_h_ | but not so with public rss feeds | 18:32 |
| rick_h_ | man I wish my wife's student loans were gone. I'd almost quit and start hacking. | 18:33 |
| rick_h_ | I did think about pulling newsblur and seeing if I could get a link in for 'save to Bookie' for feed items you awnt to bookmark | 18:33 |
| brousch | But if bookie is the reader, it's already bookmarked before you do anything | 18:34 |
| brousch | You would autobookmark every article in your feeds | 18:34 |
| rick_h_ | yea, but now you've got a ton of crap that's not a cultured set of bookmarks | 18:34 |
| brousch | Right, so delete the stuff you don't want to save and add tags to the stuff you want to keep | 18:35 |
| brousch | Like email! | 18:36 |
| rick_h_ | lol | 18:36 |
| brousch | Bookie is my new email client | 18:36 |
| rick_h_ | Blazeix: http://r.bmark.us/u/d2cb7eca19a7ea | 21:35 |
| brousch | Say a talk on that at GRDevDay. It looked pretty interesting | 21:45 |
| rick_h_26 | too much magic for my tastes | 21:47 |
| brousch | Saves a crapload of code | 21:50 |
| brousch | I like that google uses it extensively | 21:51 |
| snap-l | JoDee's sick. Caught her watching the old Battlestar Galactica series voluntarily. | 23:15 |
| snap-l | Now she's watching some show called NYC Prep. | 23:15 |
| rick_h_26 | uh oh | 23:17 |
| brousch | snap-l: Alzheimer's? | 23:25 |
| rick_h_26 | dammit I'm sitting here folding laundry thinking of ways to do RSS items with detecting dupes and building intelligent prioritizing of unread content. | 23:31 |
| brousch | My plan is working. Get the rick_h_ wetware working on a problem and it will be solved! | 23:32 |
| greg-g | :) | 23:39 |
| greg-g | you know, instead of being all NIH, maybe chip in with NewsBlur, it does the intelligent prioritization part already... (yeah, you could build a new interface for it...) | 23:40 |
| greg-g | ;) | 23:40 |
| rick_h_26 | I looked but just not a fan. I've downloaded feedhq and started looking at the source. | 23:45 |
| rick_h_26 | but my points aren't Nih just working thoughts out in my head ;) | 23:46 |
| jcastro | NIH! NIH! is the new "Send me a patch" | 23:46 |
| rick_h_26 | jcastro this Google cloud article is cool. | 23:51 |
| rick_h_26 | http://r.bmark.us/u/86747a3302e585 for others | 23:51 |
| jcastro | yep | 23:53 |
| rick_h_26 | can't wait to test it out when it open source | 23:53 |
| rick_h_26 | opens up that is | 23:53 |
| rick_h_26 | stupid keyboard completion | 23:53 |
| jcastro | why are you _26? | 23:55 |
| brousch | I think we need a Google Reader replacement that you can deploy to Google App Engine in the free tier. | 23:56 |
| jcastro | or just write a charm? | 23:57 |
| jcastro | and use every free tier? | 23:57 |
| rick_h_26 | jcastro because the tablet loses connection/reconnects sometimes | 23:57 |
| jcastro | what does the 26 mean? | 23:57 |
| brousch | jcastro: That misses the irony of it | 23:57 |
| === rick_h_26 is now known as rick_h_droid | ||
| rick_h_droid | it's just a random number it uses. hmm seems it didn't auth | 23:58 |
