| ianorlin | Any one else find that reading the hippa privacy policy reads like a proprietary software liscense | 00:07 |
|---|---|---|
| ianorlin | and why do I want to email rms to see if he had security officers called on him when he refused to sign that he had recieved a copy of privacy policy when he had not | 00:08 |
| ianorlin | hmm would building an infrastrucre that allows people to host their own medical records work instead of liscensing it from the medical service providers | 00:09 |
| ianorlin | how would a peer to peer medical records system work | 00:09 |
| ianorlin | but getting that adopted would be a crazy battle | 00:09 |
| Roguehorse | DonkeyHotei: Well, that's true in some cases also | 00:22 |
| Roguehorse | You can build whatever you like, it's just a matter of the adoption | 00:24 |
| Roguehorse | If you think it's a good idea and you meet therequired criteria for safeguards and regulations.......eh, give it a go | 00:25 |

| pleia2 | ianorlin: fwiw, volunteering and being a linux hobbiest is how I kicked off my career | 04:21 |
| pleia2 | there are several open source infrastructure projects these days, debian, fedora, jenkins, openstack (what I work on) to get real experience | 04:21 |
| * pleia2 digs up links | 04:22 | |

| nhaines | pleia2: volunteering and being a linux hobbyist is also how I've landed in a couple of fascinating jobs. :) | 04:25 |
| pleia2 | \o/ | 04:25 |
| nhaines | Not to mention ended up being a published author (yay magazine articles!) | 04:25 |
| pleia2 | yeah, me too | 04:26 |
| nhaines | Even Linux Foundation looked at my Ubucon work and called me about their Event Coordinator position early this year. | 04:26 |
| DonkeyHotei | yeah, none of that ever happened to me | 04:26 |
| nhaines | *They* called *me*. I was pretty amazed. And you'd better believe my résumé had more than a throwaway sentence in it about Ubucon before I emailed it to them. | 04:26 |
| pleia2 | :) | 04:26 |
| pleia2 | DonkeyHotei: does your resume talk about your volunteer work? | 04:27 |
| pleia2 | it has a whole section on mine, that's pretty essential | 04:27 |
| nhaines | Plus, you'd better believe that anyone who's been in the trenches with me at SCaLE and needs a reference is going to get a massively glowing one from me. | 04:27 |
| DonkeyHotei | i don't even remember that much of my volunteer work | 04:28 |
| nhaines | If you don't tell anyone about your volunteer work, it can't help you. | 04:28 |
| pleia2 | yeah, you do need to be strategic about it | 04:28 |
| DonkeyHotei | some of the highlights may be in the resume, i no longer remember | 04:29 |
| pleia2 | but it definitely is possible to get and claim experience in tech even before you have a proper job, that's why/how so many of us are self taught | 04:29 |
| nhaines | Nobody cares about your résumé any more than you do. | 04:29 |
| nhaines | pleia2: Free Software is unique in that regard in that it only requires determination, because the tools are all freely available. | 04:30 |
| pleia2 | yeah | 04:30 |
| pleia2 | fortunately most companies these days use free software :) | 04:30 |
| nhaines | It's not like interships don't exist anywhere else, but in Free Software you don't play with toys, you play with the real, live thing. | 04:30 |
| nhaines | And even if they don't, you're still using enterprise-grade software. :) | 04:31 |
| DonkeyHotei | you look at the want ads on CL, anything that doesn't require a BS in CS is a minimum wage internship | 04:32 |
| pleia2 | I just ignore that requirement and apply anyway | 04:33 |
| ianorlin | and networking in person is horrible for people with autism | 04:33 |
| DonkeyHotei | ianorlin: i did that for years anyway and it didn't do me a lot | 04:33 |
| rww | networking in person is horrible | 04:34 |
| pleia2 | ianorlin: that's why I network via IRC :) (well, I'm not autistic, but I am terribly shy when I'm not speaking) | 04:34 |
| * ianorlin knows | 04:34 | |
| pleia2 | social gatherings are tough unless I know people | 04:34 |
| DonkeyHotei | pleia2: there is a phenomenon called "broader autism phenotype" | 04:34 |
| pleia2 | DonkeyHotei: realistically I probably do land somewhere on the spectrum, but I'd rather not self diagnose (and I'm ok with how I am) | 04:36 |
| * ianorlin also knows there are channels for autism on freenode | 04:37 | |
| pleia2 | I also write a lot - twitter, blogs, articles, etc, so people know I'm engaged even if I'm quiet at actual events | 04:38 |
| pleia2 | ooh, breakfast time | 04:39 |
| DonkeyHotei | when asked whether he's on the spectrum, rms said, and i paraphrase, "i don't know and i don't really care" because knowing whether he is or not doesn't really affect his life | 04:40 |
| pleia2 | yeah, that | 04:41 |
| ianorlin | also rms got upset when he was asked to sign he had recieved privacy policy when he had not at doctors | 04:42 |
| DonkeyHotei | ianorlin: i've personally witnessed his autistic meltdowns, he's on the spectrum, zero doubt | 04:43 |
| DonkeyHotei | having seen esr speak at balug, i'm reasonably sure he is also | 04:43 |
| DonkeyHotei | takes one to know one | 04:45 |
| ianorlin | also why do places send confidential messages to gmail | 05:08 |
| DonkeyHotei | you know you can use gpg over gmail, right? | 05:11 |
| * ianorlin should learn to do that | 05:23 | |
| ianorlin | no but not gpg | 05:23 |
| Roguehorse | Sorry I missed the rest of the conversation, had to break away and watch The LEGO movie with my son | 06:22 |
| DonkeyHotei | ian isn't here, so convo over | 06:23 |
| Roguehorse | ahh, looks like some good things got said | 06:25 |
| DonkeyHotei | important things were left unsaid | 06:26 |
| Roguehorse | sometimes always are; good thing IRC is perpetual : ) | 06:26 |
| Roguehorse | and to think so many miss out on this for Skype | 06:27 |
| DonkeyHotei | i'm on both skype and here | 06:27 |
| Roguehorse | I don't do Skype ... no need | 06:28 |
| Roguehorse | gotta run, time for bed then LOTS of homework for the weekend - YAY! | 06:29 |
