Nairwolf | don't know nothing about that... | 00:00 |
---|---|---|
Kamilion | their english grammar was poor, thus they were very easy to spot for a while. | 00:00 |
Nairwolf | ah ah ;) | 00:01 |
Kamilion | after all this time, I can normally identify a person's country of origin by how they choose to type | 00:01 |
Kamilion | and the mistakes they make | 00:01 |
Nairwolf | nice skill ! Tell me how you write, I'll tell you where you from ! | 00:02 |
Nairwolf | And, you, were you from, USA ? | 00:02 |
Kamilion | California. Almost the same, but not quite ;) | 00:02 |
Nairwolf | Oh, nice ;) I'm going to California this summer for three months | 00:02 |
Kamilion | silicon valley? | 00:03 |
Nairwolf | yes, for an internship | 00:03 |
Kamilion | I'm nearby San Jose. | 00:03 |
Nairwolf | do you work here ? | 00:03 |
Kamilion | I work in campbell, slightly west of san jose | 00:04 |
Kamilion | Well, when you're in town, poke me on IRC and I'll provide a beverage of your choice. | 00:04 |
Kamilion | we have a wonderful mass transit system | 00:05 |
=== aaron__ is now known as ahoneybun | ||
Nairwolf | oh, nice, I will tell you ;) | 00:05 |
Nairwolf | It will be nice to meet nice guys there ! | 00:06 |
Kamilion | If you're looking for people to meet, there's a place in Mountain View called Hacker Dojo. Sometimes they have events; and there's a lot of cool people to meet at those. | 00:09 |
Kamilion | most of the other times, you'll find people using the building as an office | 00:09 |
Kamilion | and there's nothing interesting going on | 00:09 |
Kamilion | but they have a corkboard/bulletin board which is useful to check from time to time, or post something on. | 00:10 |
Kamilion | and I mean that in the physical sense | 00:10 |
Nairwolf | okay, I'll see that ;) | 00:11 |
Nairwolf | Now, I'm making the application Visa. | 00:13 |
Nairwolf | Then, I'll search also for a room | 00:13 |
Nairwolf | Where is the sillicon valley exactly ? | 00:13 |
Nairwolf | All this cities around San José are inside the sillicon valley ? | 00:14 |
Kamilion | yeah | 00:14 |
Kamilion | lemme take a screenshot of google maps for you | 00:14 |
Nairwolf | thanks | 00:16 |
Kamilion | http://puu.sh/hK1a6/e210749a7f.jpg | 00:17 |
Nairwolf | what would you show me exactly ? Because I've seen Campbell. What are these stars ? | 00:18 |
Kamilion | this whole thin | 00:18 |
Kamilion | this is silicon valley | 00:19 |
Kamilion | all the way down from san francisco to the bottom tip of san jose | 00:19 |
Kamilion | san mateo, redwood city, palo alto, cupertino, sunnyvale, mountain view, san jose, santa clara, campbell, los gatos, los altos | 00:19 |
Kamilion | but this whole ring of freeways you see here | 00:20 |
Kamilion | this is the "bay area" also known as "silicon valley" | 00:20 |
Nairwolf | yes, I see ;) | 00:20 |
Nairwolf | very impressive | 00:20 |
Kamilion | there is a two-story diesel train that runs from the east tip of san francisco "San francisco caltrain station" to south san jose called Caltrain | 00:21 |
Kamilion | another electric tram called BART between oakland, san francisco, and millbrae | 00:21 |
Kamilion | which connects with caltrain | 00:21 |
Kamilion | and four bus services, MUNI in san francisco, AC transit in san mateo and redwood city, Samtrans, and VTA in the southern area | 00:22 |
Nairwolf | okay, nice ;) | 00:22 |
Nairwolf | I will be around Milpitas | 00:23 |
Kamilion | the easiest way to get around is by mass transit, but it takes some time | 00:23 |
Kamilion | (the stars are places I've bookmarked in google( | 00:23 |
Nairwolf | ah, it's that, okay ;) | 00:23 |
Kamilion | there's something around 6 million people in the south area alone | 00:24 |
Nairwolf | by the way, I will not have other choice to use mass transit | 00:24 |
Nairwolf | impressive ;) | 00:24 |
Kamilion | yeah, I figured. | 00:24 |
ianorlin | at least it isn't LA without a car | 00:25 |
Nairwolf | and I always live in countryside ;) | 00:25 |
Kamilion | the two bridges in the center have no real mass transit links | 00:25 |
Kamilion | so unfortunately, you're stuck going around the water the long way | 00:25 |
Kamilion | your best bet for finding housing for working in milpitas is in fremont | 00:25 |
Kamilion | and there is a BART station in both milpitas and fremont | 00:26 |
Kamilion | milpitas is the end of the line for bart in the southgoing direction | 00:26 |
Nairwolf | okay, thanks, I'll check this | 00:26 |
Kamilion | so the only link between san jose to the south and milpitas to the north is by bus | 00:26 |
Kamilion | BART uses dedicated tracks; the bus gets caught in traffic. | 00:27 |
Nairwolf | okay, nice for all this Kamilion ;) I would like to speak with you more, but, I really need go to bed ;) | 00:29 |
Kamilion | I'm normally around if you highlight me unless I'm sleeping. | 00:29 |
Nairwolf | I hope to see you next time on IRC | 00:29 |
Kamilion | I deal with python and hardware | 00:29 |
Kamilion | anytime o/ | 00:29 |
Nairwolf | oh, nice, I like python ;) | 00:30 |
Nairwolf | I don't know exactly what I will do in my internship, but it's about 2D and 3D transform in C++, CSS, Javascript, and OpenGLES. I hope it will be great ;) | 00:31 |
Nairwolf | In fact, about Lubuntu, you're one of the devs ? | 00:31 |
Kamilion | ah, llvm and opencl will be friends of yours then | 00:31 |
Kamilion | nah, I'm not qualified to be labeled developer yet | 00:32 |
Kamilion | scripter, yes, dabbler, yes, programmer, no, developer, no. | 00:32 |
Kamilion | I am a relative newcomer to programming; but deep hardware knowledge from working in embedded systems | 00:32 |
Kamilion | but I have recently joined the lubuntu-qa team | 00:33 |
Kamilion | plus I use lubuntu for the base of my own project: https://github.com/kamilion/kamikazi-deploy | 00:33 |
Nairwolf | okay, I think that melodie has already spoke me about you | 00:34 |
Kamilion | short short description: I got sick of vmware and not being able to change settings locally | 00:34 |
Kamilion | so i put some virtualization packages on a lubuntu iso | 00:34 |
Kamilion | now I use it instead of vmware's free ESXi | 00:34 |
Kamilion | (the one they're getting sued for GPL violations) | 00:35 |
Nairwolf | okay, nice ;) It seems to be a great project ;) | 00:35 |
Nairwolf | I'm sorry, I really need to go, I've lessons tomorrow ;) And also, I will meet rms ;) | 00:36 |
Kamilion | good luck, have fun | 00:37 |
* Kamilion pushes you out the door :) | 00:37 | |
Nairwolf | thanks ;) See you ;) | 00:37 |

wxl | Unit193: incidentially, most of the discussion here has been about development of lubuntu in some form or another, even florian's little python project. | 15:48 |
