[00:00] don't know nothing about that... [00:00] their english grammar was poor, thus they were very easy to spot for a while. [00:01] ah ah ;) [00:01] after all this time, I can normally identify a person's country of origin by how they choose to type [00:01] and the mistakes they make [00:02] nice skill ! Tell me how you write, I'll tell you where you from ! [00:02] And, you, were you from, USA ? [00:02] California. Almost the same, but not quite ;) [00:02] Oh, nice ;) I'm going to California this summer for three months [00:03] silicon valley? [00:03] yes, for an internship [00:03] I'm nearby San Jose. [00:03] do you work here ? [00:04] I work in campbell, slightly west of san jose [00:04] Well, when you're in town, poke me on IRC and I'll provide a beverage of your choice. [00:05] we have a wonderful mass transit system === aaron__ is now known as ahoneybun [00:05] oh, nice, I will tell you ;) [00:06] It will be nice to meet nice guys there ! [00:09] 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] most of the other times, you'll find people using the building as an office [00:09] and there's nothing interesting going on [00:10] but they have a corkboard/bulletin board which is useful to check from time to time, or post something on. [00:10] and I mean that in the physical sense [00:11] okay, I'll see that ;) [00:13] Now, I'm making the application Visa. [00:13] Then, I'll search also for a room [00:13] Where is the sillicon valley exactly ? [00:14] All this cities around San José are inside the sillicon valley ? [00:14] yeah [00:14] lemme take a screenshot of google maps for you [00:16] thanks [00:17] http://puu.sh/hK1a6/e210749a7f.jpg [00:18] what would you show me exactly ? Because I've seen Campbell. What are these stars ? [00:18] this whole thin [00:19] this is silicon valley [00:19] all the way down from san francisco to the bottom tip of san jose [00:19] san mateo, redwood city, palo alto, cupertino, sunnyvale, mountain view, san jose, santa clara, campbell, los gatos, los altos [00:20] but this whole ring of freeways you see here [00:20] this is the "bay area" also known as "silicon valley" [00:20] yes, I see ;) [00:20] very impressive [00:21] 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] another electric tram called BART between oakland, san francisco, and millbrae [00:21] which connects with caltrain [00:22] 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] okay, nice ;) [00:23] I will be around Milpitas [00:23] the easiest way to get around is by mass transit, but it takes some time [00:23] (the stars are places I've bookmarked in google( [00:23] ah, it's that, okay ;) [00:24] there's something around 6 million people in the south area alone [00:24] by the way, I will not have other choice to use mass transit [00:24] impressive ;) [00:24] yeah, I figured. [00:25] at least it isn't LA without a car [00:25] and I always live in countryside ;) [00:25] the two bridges in the center have no real mass transit links [00:25] so unfortunately, you're stuck going around the water the long way [00:25] your best bet for finding housing for working in milpitas is in fremont [00:26] and there is a BART station in both milpitas and fremont [00:26] milpitas is the end of the line for bart in the southgoing direction [00:26] okay, thanks, I'll check this [00:26] so the only link between san jose to the south and milpitas to the north is by bus [00:27] BART uses dedicated tracks; the bus gets caught in traffic. [00:29] okay, nice for all this Kamilion ;) I would like to speak with you more, but, I really need go to bed ;) [00:29] I'm normally around if you highlight me unless I'm sleeping. [00:29] I hope to see you next time on IRC [00:29] I deal with python and hardware [00:29] anytime o/ [00:30] oh, nice, I like python ;) [00:31] 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] In fact, about Lubuntu, you're one of the devs ? [00:31] ah, llvm and opencl will be friends of yours then [00:32] nah, I'm not qualified to be labeled developer yet [00:32] scripter, yes, dabbler, yes, programmer, no, developer, no. [00:32] I am a relative newcomer to programming; but deep hardware knowledge from working in embedded systems [00:33] but I have recently joined the lubuntu-qa team [00:33] plus I use lubuntu for the base of my own project: https://github.com/kamilion/kamikazi-deploy [00:34] okay, I think that melodie has already spoke me about you [00:34] short short description: I got sick of vmware and not being able to change settings locally [00:34] so i put some virtualization packages on a lubuntu iso [00:34] now I use it instead of vmware's free ESXi [00:35] (the one they're getting sued for GPL violations) [00:35] okay, nice ;) It seems to be a great project ;) [00:36] I'm sorry, I really need to go, I've lessons tomorrow ;) And also, I will meet rms ;) [00:37] good luck, have fun [00:37] * Kamilion pushes you out the door :) [00:37] thanks ;) See you ;) === aaron_ is now known as ahoneybun [15:48] Unit193: incidentially, most of the discussion here has been about development of lubuntu in some form or another, even florian's little python project.
