[00:15] hello party people [00:20] party [00:29] how's CHC? i cleaned and called my mom and now i'm watching Nature. [00:30] also i'm tired right now too so going out is like not going to work for me (work's been taking whatever energy i have and sucking it out of me :( ) [01:25] CHC is going we.. [01:50] well, even [11:48] morning [11:51] morn [12:55] good morning [12:56] I have a question not specifically about linux, but dealing with people [12:57] Throughout my env I have been using saltstack for config management etc for months now [12:57] the other week the IT director decided that we need to jump onto the chef wagon because another company we work with uses it [12:58] Has anyone ever needed to rip out something that has been working well to replace it with esssentially the same thing? [12:58] Have you played with Chef at all? [12:58] I have been, yes. To me it's not as good feeling as writing salt states [12:59] But to answer your question: Yep, been there multiple times [12:59] What's your relationship with the IT director? [13:00] "sneakyphil is the guy who does the linux things and plays jesus for me" [13:01] my developers have taken saltstack upon themselves for their own projects even [13:02] Then you need to talk [13:02] show him what the differences are and why Chef might not fit [13:02] Have an adult conversation about it. :) [13:02] heh [13:02] thank you [13:03] to powerpoint [13:03] * SneakyPhil away [13:03] Well, you don't necessarily need powerpoint [13:03] just a simple "here's what we're currently doin,g and here's why Chef might not be a good fit" [14:26] jcastro: hah love http://www.jorgecastro.org/2015/04/09/keeping-your-options-open [14:26] :D [14:51] jcastro: Nice. [14:52] I'm continually amazed that HP is a footnote in cloud [14:52] I hear more about Microsoft cloud services than HP [14:52] cmaloney: might appreciate this [14:52] Armageddon Dildos into Rachmaninov [14:52] on orders of magnatude [14:52] THAT IS A TRANSITION [14:53] cmaloney: that is because HPs cloud really sucks. [14:53] jrwren: Sounds like a great covers album [14:53] ;) [14:53] jrwren: What blessed you with that transition? [14:53] cmaloney: hahaha, no covers, just a jolting transition. [14:53] cmaloney: itunes random [14:54] cmaloney: from "My Top Rated" [14:54] jrwren: Seriously though, how hard could it be to just be a provider of cloud boxes [14:54] jrwren: gah, that seems inevitable then (re: transitions) [14:54] Rachmaninov is one of my favorite composers / performers. [14:54] cmaloney: its HP. "Seriously though, how hard could it be" and then messing up is what they've done for the past 20yrs in IT. [14:55] cmaloney: this rachmaninov I got by your recommendation. its DSO performing [14:55] jrwren: Ah, nice. [14:55] Symphony No 2 [14:55] That's a great album [14:55] no. 3 lacks a bit but no. 2 is amazing.
