mrgoodcatmorning friends12:40
rick_h_party TGIF12:41
mrgoodcatbiggby was on top of their shit this morning12:41
mrgoodcathad my coffee already made when i walked in, and this was my 12th coffee so it was free :)12:41
rick_h_sounds like you're having a good day :)12:43
mrgoodcatso far not bad12:44
mrgoodcatpretty good even measured against other fridays12:44
brouschI'll be doing a lot of Django today, so it's a great day12:52
cmaloneyGood morning13:05
cmaloneymrgoodcat: Heh. I got two coffees free this past weekend13:05
cmaloneyapparently I had one on my card, and I had a BOGO coupon.13:05
cmaloneyI'm surprised they honored it that way.13:05
rick_h_nice13:05
mrgoodcatbiggby is pretty good about that13:05
mrgoodcatdo you get the email coupons?13:06
cmaloneyI get them on and off13:06
mrgoodcatthey can be used an infinite amount of times until they expire13:06
cmaloneybut the ones in the paper are usually the BOGO ones13:06
cmaloneythough I wish (I wiiiiish) they had a way to make those coupons go on your card13:07

cmaloneyClojure books13:46
jrwrenparty party14:15
jrwrenclojure runs on JVM thus it is EVIL!!!14:15
jrwrenhrm... strange python14:30
rick_h_heh14:30
jrwrenpython pop quiz... what does this do?  http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/7168704/14:31
rick_h_hah, set self to 1?14:32
rick_h_A = 1?14:32
jrwrenyup14:32
jrwreneven though it is a named param14:32
jrwrenit kinda makes sense, but its weird.14:33
rick_h_well but it's the default first arg in the method, where self would be14:33
rick_h_I wonder if it still does that if you take out the default value in the def14:33
jrwrenright.14:33
jrwrenthen I'd get "need 2 param, only 1 passed"14:33
jrwrenor whatever that error is14:34
rick_h_right14:34
jrwrenTypeError: m() takes no arguments (2 given)14:34
jrwreni had my numbers backward.14:34
jrwrenits jsut becaues I forgot self.14:34
jrwrenI guess I didn't know that this is how pythons named param impl works14:34
jrwrenit makes sense though.14:34
rick_h_yea, you can actually pass values to named params without every passing them that way14:35
rick_h_def fun(one, two, three=3)14:35
rick_h_fun(1, 2, 3)14:35
rick_h_and three = 314:35
rick_h_well, it does because it was passed that is14:35
jrwrenyup14:35
jrwrenits the inverse that I didn't know.14:36
jrwrenand I probably knew that.14:36
rick_h_just don't think about it much14:36
rick_h_not a usual thing to do14:36
jrwrenright.14:36
jrwrenmixed with the calling style of a instance method is what confused me.14:36
jrwrenbecause self gets passed as first param weither you name it self or not :)14:37
rick_h_yep14:37
cmaloneyjrwren: That has tripped me up a few times.14:59
mrgoodcatanybody used irssi proxy before?15:29
greg-gI have to admit, I'm kind of excited that Facebook is going to use btrfs internally15:31
mrgoodcatgreg-g: it's the first major company i've heard to really buy in15:31
greg-gAs opposed to something like ZFS, because btr is included in the kernel15:31
mrgoodcatzfs is cool but the linux implementation seems a bit hacky to me and there's weird licensing15:32
greg-gyeah, stupid oracle15:32
greg-galso, the mainline/upstream is no longer even open source under the weird license, afaict15:32
mrgoodcatwoah really?15:33
mrgoodcatyou mean the oracle implementation?15:33
greg-ghttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ZFS#History15:34
greg-gmoving wall, it looks like15:34
greg-gI sure hope they'll work on documentation though15:47
mrgoodcatirssi proxy is really pissing me off. i can't figure out what i'm doing wrong. my server $personal can tunnel to $public and connect to $private with irssi on $personal, and after that i can connect to the irssi proxy from my desktop, but it isn't actually proxying me to $private15:52
mrgoodcatthe worst part is i know i'm missing something easy15:53
* greg-g hasn't used irssi proxy15:57
* greg-g just uses irssi+screen15:58
rick_h_irssi + tmux here15:58
greg-gI was gonna call rick_h_ a hipster, but I can't remember if we say hipsters use the cool new thing or the old stable thing15:58
mrgoodcatthat's what i use15:59
mrgoodcatbut i want to be able to irc without ssh15:59
mrgoodcatspecifically so i can use it on my phone15:59
rick_h_greg-g: I don't fit into the skinny jeans so I get to be outside of hipster law15:59
mrgoodcatphone ssh clients suck inherently15:59
rick_h_mrgoodcat: juicessh ftw (though I do tend to use it on a tablet)16:00
mrgoodcatgreg-g: what is hipster about irssi+tmux?16:00
mrgoodcati ues juice16:00
mrgoodcatthat's currently how i ssh from phone16:00
greg-gmrgoodcat: tmux vs screen16:01
greg-gtmux is the new hotness, whereas screen is the old trusty16:01
mrgoodcatgot it16:02
mrgoodcati used to screen but now i tmux16:02
greg-gbut which one is hipster?!16:02
greg-ghipsters all have the latest macbook...16:02
greg-gbut they also use typewriters at coffee shops16:02
greg-gI DON"T KNOW WHAT TO DO16:02
mrgoodcatlol16:02
rick_h_greg-g: lol16:08
jrwrenimma laugh when facebook stops using btrfs. I'll bet its not as loud as an announce though.16:14
greg-gjrwren: so you either A) just like it when corps pull out of FLOSS projects or B) dislike btrfs or C) something else :)16:16
greg-gjrwren: also, did you see webscalesql?16:16
greg-gone of our original dbas ("domas", volunteer mostly, also an original member of the Wikimedia Board) is now a dba at FB, and is always making fun of us for running maria16:17
jrwrengreg-g: C - i had very bad experience with btrfs16:28
jrwrengreg-g: i rolled my eyes in webscalesql direction.16:28
greg-g:)16:28
brouschI love Google Voice transcription http://pastebin.com/Em8pJQqZ16:58
brouschI can go where to track my package?16:58
greg-g"Calling with your delivery information. Yeah."16:59
greg-g"The tracking number is 798. Your E 48. Yeah, 937. Bye. Yeah, 540 Yes"16:59
greg-gbrousch: the most expensive domain name ever!16:59
greg-gthis is great16:59
greg-gthanks16:59
mrgoodcatlol go to sex dot com to track your package17:26
Havenstanceafternoon17:34
Havenstancemrgoodcat, so getting ready to deploy this server for real17:38
mrgoodcatnice17:40
jrwrenrick_h_: unbound methods are removed from python3, what do i do?!?17:41
rick_h_jrwren: example?17:44
jrwrenclass A():17:44
jrwren  def m(self): pass17:44
jrwrenA.m.im_class17:44
jrwrenin python2 that reutrns type A17:44
jrwrenin python3 A.m is just function.17:45
jrwrenit has no im_class17:45
jrwrenso how to get type A from A.m  in python 3 ?17:45
jrwrenand... worse still... how do handle it in a way that is python2 compat.17:45
jrwrenomfg... its gone.17:50
jrwrenpython3k is fail.17:50
jrwrenstupid stupids.17:50
jrwrenstill... there has got to be a way17:51
jrwrenhttp://legacy.python.org/dev/peps/pep-3155/17:52
=== mrgoodcat_ is now known as mrgoodcat
jrwrenso I htink I get to if sys.version:17:58
jrwrenbecause even six doesn't handle this case.17:58
mrgoodcatgot irc bouncer working now FINALLY18:01
mrgoodcatended up using znc18:01
mrgoodcatanybody ever use irccloud?18:05
brouschA long time ago when it was new and free18:12
mrgoodcatits still beta so they're at least trying to act like they're new18:13
brouschThat was back when chromebooks were a new thing18:17
mrgoodcatchromebooks are kinda new still18:18
mrgoodcati wouldn't call them old yet for sure18:18
brouschcr-4818:18
brouschSo 3 years ago18:20
mrgoodcatyea i guess18:21
jrwrenwhew, that was a mind bender.18:28
rick_h_jrwren: man, no idea. Never messed with that.18:31
rick_h_didn't know im_class existed tbh18:31
Havenstancehow in the fuck do i configure RAID1 on this thing man.... I'm about to bash my face off the desk... Zentyal going over ubuntu 13.10. I have 2 2tb drives i'd like to RAID1 as encrypted storage for SAMBA. then my main drive I want to be the boot drive. idk what the hell is going on this partitioner is driving me crazy keeps saying I have no swap space so i try to make swap space and it flags it saying its unsafe because18:40
Havenstanceits not encrypted. I can't add any swap space to the Raid config to make that be encrypted swap space... im at a loss here...18:40
mrgoodcatwoah18:40
Havenstanceim about to say screw it its friday18:40
Havenstanceso close to walking out lol18:40
mrgoodcati finish work in an hour :)18:41
Havenstanceit was going well until I added the damn drives18:41
Havenstancegood news18:41
HavenstanceI got what i was asking about figured out last night18:41
Havenstanceit was a corrupted install18:41
Havenstancereinstalled from scratch and everything went perfect18:41
mrgoodcatoh well that's good18:43
Havenstanceyeah, then today18:43
Havenstancehappened18:43
mrgoodcati was confused when you asked last night... i was like "mine has literally never done that"18:43
mrgoodcatwhat are you trying to use to set up raid? md?18:43
Havenstancestarted out got water in my headlights, blew a bulb shorted everything out including my ECM, some asshole in a fedex truck ran me off the road, got here they are bitching up front because their wires aren't in the right place. I'm so ready to just punch someone and walk out, oh and on top of it all my furnace just went out this morning.18:44
HavenstanceYeah I started a bare ubuntu install thinking that might fix it18:45
Havenstanceyeah right....18:45
Havenstanceif I could just set up an encrypted install on the home drive. I'll let him think those storage drives are encrypted18:45
HavenstanceDon't really care anymore :)18:45
HavenstanceHe's not smart enough to figure it out anyway.18:46
Havenstanceso after install is there a way to setup MD?18:47
Havenstancewouldn't mind even putting the system on the MD RAid if I could figure out how to get the swap working18:48
jrwrenrick_h_: i was being stupid. i got hte equiv by not being stupid and going from implicit coupling to explicit coupling.18:49
jrwrenand 1 line of code instead of 15 lines18:50
mrgoodcatwoah long day18:50
mrgoodcatsorry to hear that man18:50
jrwrenyou don't need swap.18:50
Havenstanceits good, probably shouldn't have used that language either, I'm sorry guys18:50
jrwrenrun without a swap partition, then apt-get install swapfile18:50
jrwrendone!18:50
mrgoodcatOH DEAR GOD SOMEONE BURNT POPCORN PLEASE SEND HELP18:50
jrwrendynamic swap, just like Mac and Windows18:50
Havenstancequit it18:50
jrwrenwhy this is not hte default, I'll never know.18:50
HavenstanceThat just made my day a little better lol18:50
Havenstancei took out SDA which was an IDE drive im just going to run the system from the base RAID. Should be okay shouldn't it?18:51
HavenstanceI'd think on the RAID I at least have a mirror so if something breaks the worst I have to do is install Grub on the mirror18:52
Havenstanceidk this is one of those I don't care days I think18:52
Havenstanceso, network cables are a fire hazard guys....19:00
jrwrenyou can even install grub on both drives so that if one fails the grub will already be there19:00
jrwrenyes, that is why you get plenum cable, or something.19:01
Havenstancejrwren, sweet, I'm thinking this is a Monday project...19:01
Havenstanceyeah I was just told that a cluster of network cables has the potential to combust from the amount of electricity flowing through each cable19:01
Havenstancesame said woman complaining about the cords at the Point of sale up front19:02
jrwrenum, no.19:02
jrwrenthat is just silly.19:02
Havenstancelol yeah I know19:02
Havenstancethat was my point19:02
jrwrenbut how would anyone know.19:02
jrwrenyou could educate about voltage, current and such19:02
HavenstanceI said well considering that your entire computer is a 12v system it would be safe to assume that no one network cable carries more then 12 volts at any given time19:03
Havenstance"your computer runs on 115 volts dumbass" "Infact its plugged into the wall"19:03
Havenstanceyup but that's why they call it switching power supplies19:03
Havenstanceidk this woman is hopeless19:03
Havenstance<<<<<<<<<<<<-------- This guy has a date with Mr. Jack Daniels at 5pm sharp :)19:04
jrwrenyou could refer her to the IEEE ethernet specification that says its a few volts and a few amps19:10
jrwreni tried looking it up, but I failed.19:10
cmaloneyFrankly I'd forego irssi-proxy unless there's a specific use-case that isn't covered by tmux / screen and your client of choice.19:10
mrgoodcatHavenstance: to be fair you're assuming nothing ever goes wrong with the PSU or anything like tht19:10
mrgoodcatcmaloney: i kinda had to19:10
jrwrenor someone accidentally plus something into POE19:10
Havenstanceyeah19:10
Havenstancehonestly I hope it proves me wrong and blows up in her face at this point... im tired of hearing the pity party19:11
mrgoodcatcmaloney: it has to do with our particular network configuration at school, but irssi/tmux is a bit of a pain sometimes19:11
mrgoodcatHavenstance: go home and get a beer19:11
HavenstanceI already told her that if it was a problem she could move the wires19:11
Havenstancemrgoodcat, yeah go home and fix the furnace you mean :)19:11
HavenstanceI gotta get that running before the pipes refreeze or it gets too cold for the baby19:12
jrwrenoh, even PoE is only 35W19:12
mrgoodcatmy pipes are frozen at my second house :(19:12
Havenstancein theory there should be so few volts in a ethernet cable you could plug one end in and stick the other on your tounge and you'd be alright19:13
jrwrenHavenstance: even PoE?19:13
mrgoodcatvolts is not what is dangerous19:13
Havenstanceidk about POE but I'm talking the kind with the switches and stuff19:13
Havenstanceno the Amps are what get ya19:13
mrgoodcatneither of you have taken any EE classes have you?19:13
jrwrenthere are PoE switches.19:13
jrwrenI have.19:13
jrwrenthat is why I said 35W19:13
jrwrenits all about CURRENT19:13
mrgoodcatahh didn't see watts19:13
mrgoodcatwas thinking volts19:14
mrgoodcat~friday eyes~19:14
jrwren:)19:14
Havenstancemrgoodcat, she said to me that there was 115 volts running thru an ethernet cable19:14
jrwrentime for 4th cup of coffee :)19:14
jrwrenyou could kindly correct her.19:14
mrgoodcati'd certainly not put my toungue on a PoE cable no matter what someone told me19:14
Havenstancejrwren, tried that19:14
jrwrenah, fail.19:14
Havenstancemrgoodcat, no i wouldnt either19:14
jrwrennor me.19:14
jrwrenPoE is scary.19:14
Havenstancebut the kind we have are not POE they are standard ethernet19:15
mrgoodcati had a VoIP phone with PoE go bad once and it was scarier than i'd have thought19:15
mrgoodcatnobody got hurt or anything but the phone let out the magic blue smoke that makes it work19:15
Havenstancenow I did convince her that computers run on magic smoke19:16
HavenstanceI figure forget it, if i cant stand her at least I can have some fun...19:16
Havenstancemy statement was "at this point the magic smoke is all I can hope for"19:17
Havenstancescrew this, im going home. ya'll have a good weekend19:20
Havenstanceidk when i'll be home im gonna stop by the tavern and have a few19:20
Havenstanceso may or may not be on from home tonight19:20
=== Havenstance is now known as Haven|BeerThirty
mrgoodcatcmaloney: also irccloud is way easier on a chromebook than ssh is19:28
brouschWho's the WMU guy in here? http://www.mlive.com/news/kalamazoo/index.ssf/2014/03/is_western_michigan_university.html20:44
brouschouch20:45
mrgoodcatI'm not in the edu department but yea its a huge joke21:01
mrgoodcatEngineers fail and go to business. Business students fail and go to education21:01
cmaloneyHonestly if you're going into teaching for the money I'd like to talk to you21:56
jrwrenhahaha.21:58
