| jrwren | man, google must be getting desparate, blind recruting emails to the likes of me. :p | 01:41 |
|---|---|---|
| rick_h_ | :P | 01:42 |
| rick_h_ | shouldn't have referred you then? | 01:42 |
| jrwren | rick_h_: WHAT! why you giving google my name? | 01:43 |
| jrwren | :) | 01:44 |
| rick_h_ | heh | 01:44 |
| jrwren | you trying to tell me something? :) | 01:44 |
| rick_h_ | no, just kidding | 01:46 |
| * jrwren wipes brow and looks at leankit. :p | 01:47 | |
| jrwren | j/k | 01:47 |
| rick_h_ | psh, leankit time over | 01:48 |
| rick_h_ | I just wish I could figure out wtf with this laptop scale factor crap!!! ugh | 01:48 |
| cmaloney | jrwren: I've gotten a few of them | 02:05 |
| cmaloney | Apparently they want me to move there and do sysadmin | 02:05 |
| jrwren | cmaloney: oh good, for a moment I thought I was special. | 02:06 |
| cmaloney | jrwren: You are special | 02:06 |
| cmaloney | None of that imposter shit here | 02:06 |
| cmaloney | leave that to the professionals. | 02:07 |
| cmaloney | <- me | 02:07 |
| cmaloney | pft... jrwren, trying to muscle in on my imposter syndrome | 02:07 |
| jrwren | hehe, neither of us can be mountain view imposters | 02:10 |
| cmaloney | jrwren: I think you've written more code in your sleep than I have, period. :) | 02:11 |
| jrwren | cmaloney: its probably not true. I play starcraft2 in my sleep. | 02:11 |
| jrwren | cmaloney: and before that, I was a member of sg1 in my sleep. | 02:11 |
| jrwren | that pretty much covers all my dreams for the last 20yrs | 02:11 |
| cmaloney | heh | 02:11 |
| jrwren | cmaloney: imposters unite! https://twitter.com/bpoetz/status/572952737677242368 | 02:14 |

| brousch | A good read https://queue.acm.org/detail.cfm?id=2349257 | 12:39 |
| jrwren | brousch: dude... he paints a picture and then complains about building his freebsd environment all day long. This person done not have a good grasp on reality. | 12:51 |
| brousch | BSD is just his example | 12:53 |
| jrwren | yeah, i'll ignore that 1 paragraph. | 12:54 |
| brousch | The insanity is more evident there. The same process happens on Linux, but is better hidden | 12:54 |
| jrwren | brousch: i disagree. Its a solved problem, but let me finish reading. :) | 12:55 |
| jrwren | because I just read the complaint about configure, which makes me wonder if he really doesn't know how autotools works or if he is just being obtuse. | 12:56 |
| jrwren | ok, i finally got to his point. He is dead on right, I just don't like how he got there :) | 12:59 |
| cmaloney | Morning | 13:01 |
| jrwren | good morning cmaloney | 13:01 |
| cmaloney | I think we read this article a few years back | 13:02 |
| cmaloney | at least I think so | 13:02 |
| brousch | The author doesn't offer any solutions, but I think Canonical has been trying to enforce some quality on the Linux desktop | 13:04 |
| cmaloney | I think you can point to a lot of projects where they have a benevolent dictator | 13:06 |
| cmaloney | GNOME, Ubuntu / Unity, Linux, Python | 13:06 |
| cmaloney | It's the ones where things are run like a cabal that you start getting into strange territory. | 13:07 |
| cmaloney | BSD | 13:07 |
| cmaloney | Not sure of KDE's governance. | 13:07 |
| jrwren | does freebsd have a BD? | 13:07 |
| cmaloney | I'm not aware of one | 13:08 |
| jrwren | openbsd had Theo. I don't know that he is benevolent :) | 13:08 |
| cmaloney | Apple had Steve Jobs | 13:09 |
| cmaloney | I think they've suffered greatly with his passing | 13:09 |
| jrwren | every company has a CEO | 13:09 |
| jrwren | what you got against TIM? | 13:10 |
| cmaloney | Listening to his biography. He was an asshole with taste. | 13:10 |
| jrwren | there ya go. | 13:10 |
| cmaloney | I like Tim, but I think he's not able to muster up the Jobsian fear | 13:10 |
| cmaloney | He's a new-testament CEO | 13:10 |
| cmaloney | Jobs was strictly Old Testament | 13:11 |
| cmaloney | Or more Greek God. Zeus perhaps | 13:11 |
| cmaloney | OK, apparently Node.js forked and now there's io.js | 13:19 |
| rick_h_ | cmaloney: yep :) | 13:20 |
| jrwren | when C programmers don't know C https://github.com/Apple-FOSS-Mirror/Libc/blob/2ca2ae74647714acfc18674c3114b1a5d3325d7d/gen/wordexp.c#L192 | 13:20 |
| cmaloney | *rolls eyes* | 13:20 |
| jrwren | cmaloney: you didn't know about io.js? I thought the drums had been beating on that pretty loudly | 13:21 |
| brousch | It's easy to miss if you ignore everything with node.js in the title | 13:31 |
| jrwren | ha! true that. | 13:32 |
| cmaloney | jrwren: I don't follow anything node.js | 13:58 |
| cmaloney | just popped along my peripheral vision | 13:58 |
| jrwren | that must be my problem, i follow too many things :) | 13:59 |
| jrwren | i've never used node for much, but I follow it a tiny bit. | 13:59 |
| cmaloney | Nothing wrong with that. | 15:17 |
| cmaloney | http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Galaxy-Note-Edition-Black/product-reviews/B00F3SOHNU/ref=cm_cr_dp_synop?ie=UTF8&showViewpoints=0&sortBy=bySubmissionDateDescending#R2310CHWLKKVD <- I swear every single time I see a review start with "I have a BS in Computers and over 30 years experience" start a review I immediately discount the opinion a few points. | 15:28 |
| jrwren | cmaloney: me too! | 15:29 |
| cscheib | haha | 15:30 |
| jrwren | hahahaha. | 15:30 |
| jrwren | and it seems the whole reason he is complaining is he doesn't understand different power output USB ports | 15:31 |
| cscheib | you're too hyper today, jrwren | 15:31 |
| jrwren | cscheib: am I? | 15:31 |
| jrwren | cscheib: sorry. | 15:31 |
| cmaloney | jrwren: Yeah, I begin bracing myself for the inevitable "50 pin SCSI connectors are far more flexible than USB-C" | 15:32 |
| devinheitmueller | I have one of these. They’re pretty helpful: http://www.amazon.com/AboveTEK%C2%AE-USB-Voltage-Current-Multimeter/dp/B00ICR1UB6/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1427816001&sr=8-4&keywords=usb+amp+meter | 15:33 |
| cmaloney | devinheitmueller: That's really cool! | 15:36 |
| * cmaloney adds to cart. | 15:37 | |
| devinheitmueller | Yeah, cheap, simple, gets the job done. | 15:37 |
| devinheitmueller | Not terribly accurate, but good enough to tell whether you’re getting 500ma or 2000. | 15:37 |
| cmaloney | Yeah, that's all I really need | 15:38 |
| devinheitmueller | When I care about accuracy, I use one of these in conjunction with a benchtop meter: http://friedcircuits.us/tools/50 | 15:40 |
| cmaloney | right. | 15:45 |
| cscheib | jrwren: you've talked quite a bit on other channels, so yes :P | 15:46 |
| jrwren | cscheib: :p | 15:48 |
| jrwren | cscheib: that awk thing still puzzles me. | 15:48 |
| cmaloney | foo | 18:21 |
| cscheib | bar | 19:03 |
| greg-g | yay https://nthykier.wordpress.com/2015/03/31/jessie-is-coming-the-2015-04-25/ | 19:53 |
| jrwren | greg-g: YAY! | 19:56 |
| brousch | Who is Jessie? | 19:56 |
| jrwren | brousch: seriously? | 19:57 |
| jrwren | brousch: http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ZmJWDp66wkI/TVlNMblSb-I/AAAAAAAAAAw/Nrhq9iMRl-A/s1600/toy+story+3+Jessie1.jpg | 19:57 |
| brousch | Ah, I had to click links on the blog post to have a clue that it was about Debian | 19:58 |
| brousch | Yeah! | 19:59 |
| jrwren | as i listen to people complain about itunes, i wonder what the ipod workflow is like for the ubuntu-phone | 20:07 |
| jrwren | does it sync music with desktop ubuntu music app? | 20:07 |
| cscheib | Detroit Puppet User Group meeting: https://twitter.com/cjscheib/status/583018935764852738 | 21:34 |
