rick_h_ | hah | 02:05 |
cmaloney | I <3 hearing half-baked plans to get rich | 02:06 |
rick_h_ | home sweet home and no ditches yay | 04:14 |
rick_h_ | though the tow truck companies must be raking it in tonight | 04:14 |
rick_h_ | so many ditches, so much room to fill | 04:15 |
cmaloney | Good morning | 12:21 |
cmaloney | rick_h_: Glad you made it home safely. | 12:21 |
cmaloney | I <3 the Royal Oak Public Library but they drive me nuts some times | 12:21 |
cmaloney | outside of the "we send images as newsletters" | 12:22 |
cmaloney | It looks like htey have a new site | 12:22 |
cmaloney | and it has a RSS feed | 12:22 |
cmaloney | so I click on it. | 12:22 |
cmaloney | http://www.ropl.org/?format=feed&type=rss | 12:22 |
rick_h_ | woot https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.heikobehrens.pebblecam | 13:58 |
cmaloney | rick_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 fun | 14:16 |
brousch | Hm. My Google+ tab started chiming and told me a call was coming in to Hangouts. But my phone did nothing | 15:07 |
brousch | This is disturbing | 15:07 |
rick_h_ | ruh roh ghost calls | 15:07 |
brousch | I guess I'll keep that tab closed so it doesn't intercept more calls | 15:08 |
jrwren | anyone know of a command which will color highlight a match like grep, but won't actually filter? | 15:14 |
jrwren | nevermind. stack overflow to the rescue | 15:15 |
waf | what's the answer? | 15:19 |
jrwren | grep -E 'willbecolored|^' everything matches ^ and it doesn't get colored | 15:19 |
waf | ah, nice | 15:21 |
greg-g | cmaloney: hahaha at that rss feed | 16:09 |
cmaloney | greg-g: Yeah, I'm thinking of sending a "WTF" note. | 16:09 |
cmaloney | Wow, IBM started the x86 revolution, and with today's sale of their servers to Lenovo IBM exits the x86 market. | 17:07 |
jrwren | do you mean by IBM PC ? | 17:31 |
cmaloney | I mean the IBM 5150 (aka the PC) | 17:56 |
cmaloney | What the fuckity fuck makes this a $119 book? http://www.amazon.com/Agile-Software-Architecture-Processes-Architectures/dp/0124077722 | 19:03 |
greg-g | cmaloney: it used far too many capital A's in the title | 19:04 |
brousch | Must be a textbook | 19:04 |
greg-g | cmaloney: also, "Agile" in title twice | 19:04 |
greg-g | that too | 19:04 |
greg-g | "in the end, you'll pay $119 plus interest on your 10 year student loan" | 19:05 |
cmaloney | Stupid | 19:07 |
cmaloney | I read one book for Slashdot that was pretty good in discussing developing under a UNIX environment | 19:08 |
jrwren | it says architecture | 19:08 |
cmaloney | Would have been a good $35-$50 book | 19:08 |
cmaloney | But because it was a "textbook" it was over $100 | 19:08 |
cmaloney | which, while good, was not worth that kind of cash | 19:09 |
cmaloney | Pearson still sells the K&R book as an eBook for what I would consider ridiculous cash | 19:10 |
brousch | ebooks are expensive to manufacturer | 19:10 |
brousch | All of those bits | 19:10 |
cmaloney | http://www.mypearsonstore.com/bookstore/c-programming-language-9780131103627?xid=PSED | 19:12 |
cmaloney | Well, considering it was published in 1988 | 19:12 |
cmaloney | And one of the authors has passed on | 19:12 |
cmaloney | Anywho, just wondered if I was crazy for thinking a collection of essays on Agile might not warrant a $119 pricetag | 19:15 |
brousch | If you cannot afford it, you are not worthy of learning it | 19:17 |
waf | as a general rule I stay away from anything that capitalizes the word "Agile" | 19:22 |
cmaloney | waf: Yeah, now if it had said "Scrum vs. Kanban - DEATHMATCH!" I would have been all over it. | 19:25 |

cmaloney | Apparently someone figured out how to get the fitbit to sync under Linux | 23:33 |
rick_h_ | hah, if you build it, they will actually make it work | 23:33 |
cmaloney | There was a project called libfitbit but that seems to have gone by the boards. | 23:33 |
cmaloney | Neat thing is it's all Python | 23:34 |
cmaloney | And apparently the fitbit sends your password stuff in the clear. | 23:34 |
rick_h_ | wheee | 23:34 |
rick_h_ | lastpass to the rescue | 23:34 |
cmaloney | so I hope they enjoy my suer-secret password. :) | 23:34 |
cmaloney | Oh I don't need lastpass for this password. I can remember it quite well. ;) | 23:35 |
rick_h_ | this isn't going to end well http://www.capetown.travel/content/page/language | 23:35 |
rick_h_ | 11 "official" languages?! | 23:35 |
greg-g | .travel? | 23:35 |
cmaloney | That's insane | 23:35 |
cmaloney | also: first time I've seen a new TLD | 23:35 |
rick_h_ | greg-g: yea, it's been an insane day | 23:35 |
rick_h_ | oh heh, didn't even notice that | 23:36 |
rick_h_ | was just a google search | 23:36 |
rick_h_ | cool | 23:36 |
cmaloney | hats off to greg-g for spotting it | 23:36 |
cmaloney | I didn't see it either. | 23:36 |
greg-g | :) | 23:36 |
* greg-g steals your hats | 23:36 | |
greg-g | I lost my stocking cap, and since I cut all my hair off, I'm coldnow | 23:37 |
cmaloney | rick_h_: So are you heading to South Africa? | 23:37 |
rick_h_ | cmaloney: yea, looks like it | 23:37 |
greg-g | probably to go chill at sabdfl's place | 23:37 |
rick_h_ | heh, not quite | 23:37 |
greg-g | :) | 23:37 |
cmaloney | sabfdl's bunker of solitude. | 23:37 |
cmaloney | until Juju is complete you get no meat. | 23:38 |
cmaloney | Also 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 |
