cmaloneyGood morning12:21
cmaloneyrick_h_: Glad you made it home safely.12:21
cmaloneyI <3 the Royal Oak Public Library but they drive me nuts some times12:21
cmaloneyoutside of the "we send images as newsletters"12:22
cmaloneyIt looks like htey have a new site12:22
cmaloneyand it has a RSS feed12:22
cmaloneyso I click on it.12:22
cmaloneyhttp://www.ropl.org/?format=feed&type=rss12:22
rick_h_woot https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.heikobehrens.pebblecam13:58
cmaloneyrick_h_: That's awesome.14:15
rick_h_cmaloney: yea, now I just need my torso for and I can have all kinds of selfie fun14:16
brouschHm. My Google+ tab started chiming and told me a call was coming in to Hangouts. But my phone did nothing15:07
brouschThis is disturbing15:07
rick_h_ruh roh ghost calls15:07
brouschI guess I'll keep that tab closed so it doesn't intercept more calls15:08
jrwrenanyone know of a command which will color highlight a match like grep, but won't actually filter?15:14
jrwrennevermind. stack overflow to the rescue15:15
wafwhat's the answer?15:19
jrwrengrep -E 'willbecolored|^' everything matches ^ and it doesn't get colored15:19
wafah, nice15:21
greg-gcmaloney: hahaha at that rss feed16:09
cmaloneygreg-g: Yeah, I'm thinking of sending a "WTF" note.16:09
cmaloneyWow, IBM started the x86 revolution, and with today's sale of their servers to Lenovo IBM exits the x86 market.17:07
jrwrendo you mean by IBM PC ?17:31
cmaloneyI mean the IBM 5150 (aka the PC)17:56
cmaloneyWhat the fuckity fuck makes this a $119 book? http://www.amazon.com/Agile-Software-Architecture-Processes-Architectures/dp/012407772219:03
greg-gcmaloney: it used far too many capital A's in the title19:04
brouschMust be a textbook19:04
greg-gcmaloney: also, "Agile" in title twice19:04
greg-gthat too19:04
greg-g"in the end, you'll pay $119 plus interest on your 10 year student loan"19:05
cmaloneyStupid19:07
cmaloneyI read one book for Slashdot that was pretty good in discussing developing under a UNIX environment19:08
jrwrenit says architecture19:08
cmaloneyWould have been a good $35-$50 book19:08
cmaloneyBut because it was a "textbook" it was over $10019:08
cmaloneywhich, while good, was not worth that kind of cash19:09
cmaloneyPearson still sells the K&R book as an eBook for what I would consider ridiculous cash19:10
brouschebooks are expensive to manufacturer19:10
brouschAll of those bits19:10
cmaloneyhttp://www.mypearsonstore.com/bookstore/c-programming-language-9780131103627?xid=PSED19:12
cmaloneyWell, considering it was published in 198819:12
cmaloneyAnd one of the authors has passed on19:12
cmaloneyAnywho, just wondered if I was crazy for thinking a collection of essays on Agile might not warrant a $119 pricetag19:15
brouschIf you cannot afford it, you are not worthy of learning it19:17
wafas a general rule I stay away from anything that capitalizes the word "Agile"19:22
cmaloneywaf: Yeah, now if it had said "Scrum vs. Kanban - DEATHMATCH!" I would have been all over it.19:25
=== widox_ is now known as widox
cmaloneyhttps://bitbucket.org/benallard/galileo/src23:32
cmaloneyApparently someone figured out how to get the fitbit to sync under Linux23:33
rick_h_hah, if you build it, they will actually make it work23:33
cmaloneyThere was a project called libfitbit but that seems to have gone by the boards.23:33
cmaloneyNeat thing is it's all Python23:34
cmaloneyAnd apparently the fitbit sends your password stuff in the clear.23:34
rick_h_wheee23:34
rick_h_lastpass to the rescue23:34
cmaloneyso I hope they enjoy my suer-secret password. :)23:34
cmaloneyOh I don't need lastpass for this password. I can remember it quite well. ;)23:35

cmaloneyrick_h_: So are you heading to South Africa?23:37
rick_h_cmaloney: yea, looks like it23:37
greg-gprobably to go chill at sabdfl's place23:37
rick_h_heh, not quite23:37
greg-g:)23:37
cmaloneysabfdl's bunker of solitude.23:37
cmaloneyuntil Juju is complete you get no meat.23:38
cmaloneyAlso I think I'm dyslexic because I've always seen "Rooibos" as "Roobios"23:39
rick_h_hah, "you must agree to points 1 through 65...by 14.04"23:39
