[00:02] Evening [00:02] I think the Starbucks thing may need to be rethought [00:02] Managed to luck into a table here [00:37] http://gondwanaland.com/mlog/2013/10/22/open-source-proliferation-problem/ [01:07] http://fitztrev.github.io/ubuntu-irc-logs/ [01:07] trevlar++ [01:29] waf: hola [01:30] widox: test [06:04] rick_h_: does your team use any specific dev methodology? You have in-person sprints, but do ya'll also do the 1-2 week sprint idea? Still use LP for managing those sprints? [14:14] greg-g: so I think it's just kanban + agile? We do have 1-2 week "features" we break into single branch-ish kanban cards we move across the board from study, coding, review, landing/qa, done [14:14] greg-g: but we don't really call them sprints [14:34] scrumban! [14:35] jrwren: Is there a charity I can give to to help you get over that ailment? [15:06] this does not work for me. is it supposed to in 12.04.2 ? http://techxana.blogspot.com/2012/09/ubuntu-12-dhclient-logging-options.html [15:52] jrwren: is that an endorsement? [15:54] "In the case of decentralized teams, stage-illustration software such as Assembla, ScrumWorks, Rational Team Concert or JIRA in combination with Jira Agile." oh no! my only floss option is JIRA?! [15:54] from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scrum_%28software_development%29#Scrum-ban [15:54] Did someone wave the magic scrum wand? [15:55] Seems we're also "doing Scrum" [15:55] greg-g: yea, we don't use open source kanban/etc. [15:55] leankit.com [15:56] (and Jira is only this side of OSS) [15:56] cmaloney: well, being a little more reactive to reality, for us. Also, our team needs something to help us stay on task. [15:56] we're your typical fire-fighting team (the "Platform/Core" team) so we're the ones called in when shit breaks and people don't know how to fix it immediately [15:57] but, we also have things we need to build, so, yeah [15:58] agile with a capital A is bullshit. [15:58] the only agile I care about are the 4 values defined in the agile manifesto. [15:58] as for scrum or scrumban, yes, they are fine methodologies [15:58] implementing them can be challenging [16:00] I think Agile got the same problems as some of the other methodologies, namely this idea of purity in implementation [16:01] That and XP [16:01] "Thou shalt have a 10 person team for a two person project" [16:02] "And thou shalt not call it 'Agile' unless thou has delinated these roles to ten separate people" [16:22] jrwren: that's my perspective as well [16:23] cmaloney: yeah, we ain't pure :) [16:38] cmaloney: that is why... [16:38] agile with a capital A is bullshit. [19:34] That moment you find someone on G+, think it would be interesting to follow them, and then get hit with a stream of political posts [19:35] that moment when you think about doing something on G+, open it up, and run away screaming [19:35] Hey now. :) [19:35] you feel icky when someone says scrum, I feel icky when someone says G+ ;) [19:36] I didn't say I felt icky about scrum [19:36] hehe [19:36] just that i've heard it a lot lately [19:36] And nothing wrong with G+. It's actually a nice community [19:36] greg-g: Where do you converse with fellow nerds? [19:36] that said, i follow a shit-ton of gamers [19:36] brousch: right here, on IRC [19:37] But there's no pictures! [19:37] Used to be identi.ca, but people fell off that wagon. [19:37] ASCII ART! [19:37] also, yeah, identi.ca, but too quiet [19:37] apparently quittr.se (statusnet based) is pretty popular [19:38] but, I think full of mega chatters, the likes of whats his name from that one outlaw podcast [19:38] fabsh [19:38] yeah, him [19:39] We are a federation of microbloggers who care about ethics and solidarity and want to quit the centralised capitalistic services. We've been around since 2010 and will always be non-profit. [19:39] And... no. [19:40] (from http://quitter.se) [19:40] what's wrong with being non-profit? [19:40] heh [19:46] scrum is just a to short of scrotum [19:47] * _stink_ steals that [23:02] SMLR is Live on Google Hangouts On Air http://www.youtube.com/embed/f_mJKAzO42g and Audio Stream http://live.smlr.us:8000/streaming IRC Chat on Freenode Channel #smlr
